For the Egyptians, death is not the end. They believe that as long as the body is intact, the spirit can be kept alive. The pharaoh is prepared for mummification. The organs are removed and stored in canopic jars. All except for the heart, upon which is placed a scarab amulet. This will be crucially important later. The body is dried out with salt before being wrapped in hundreds of metres of bandages. Even in death, the pharaoh' s responsibility to his people is not over. But it will take 70 days until he is ready to perform the most important test of his kingship and deliver them from chaos. Summer is approaching, and they face the threat of drought once more. Without their pharaoh the villagers fear for their future. |
