In the last project, we studied how to make a mummy. We played a videogame that explained it very well. The process was:
1. The brain and the internal organs were taken out and put in jars called canopy jars.
2. The body was covered with salt called natron to dry it out.
3. After 40 days, the body was stuffed with linen, natron, herbs and spices.
4. The body was coated in oil and resin.
5. The body was wrapped with bandages. Lucky amulets were added.
6. The mask was put on the body.
7. After 70 days, the funeral procession took place and the body was placed in a burial
chamber.
This activity was great fun and we learned a lot!
