Summarize your article, being sure to tell us SPECIFICALLY what you read (name of the article!). Offer an opinion about the article.
Pose a question, or offer a comment on the article in order to stimulate conversation and learning.
Somewhere in your post, respond to someone else's ideas in a meaningful way!

Welcome! Please use this link to do a virtual tour of the mummification process. Be careful! If you choose wrong, something rather sinister happens!
Secondly, click here to do the Egyptian Scavenger Hunt! This is fun, but challenging. I assure you the answers are there, but some of them take a bit to find! Enjoy the journey- it is as much about what you see along the way!
Finish early and want to see images of the many things Egyptians mummified? Click here!
