Egypt

Infomation about egypt.

They thought that when you died your heart was weighed against the feather of truth and if it was heavier than the heart it was feed to devourer Ammat. If it wasn’t they went to the Field of Offerings.

When the pharaohs died they encased them in 4 layers the first and second layers are wood covered in gold platting. The third layer had 240 pounds of solid gold. Then they had the wrappings and underneath that was the mummy.

They had 4 jars and each jar had a different head and each head holds a different body part. The Jackal guards the stomach, the Baboon guards the lungs, the human guards the liver and the Falcon guards the intestines. Osiris was killed by Seth who was his Brother. First he shut him in a coffin and chucked him in the Nile. But it was washed ashore and found by a king and made into a pillar. She tried to make a prince immortal but the queen stopped her and gave her the pillar as recompense. Seth knew that she had found his body so he ripped it into 14 bits and scattered them. Isis found the bits and wrapped them together to form the first mummy and bought him back to life. 

This is Ra the sun God. He is part bird. Osiris is the ruler of the underworld. This is his wife Isis. She has wings like a bird and this last one is Seth who did those bad things to Osiris.
