Today in class, we reviewed what was going to be on our test. We talked about pyramids, daily life, gods and goddesses, and the Nile River. I learned that during the mummification process, the dead body is wrapped with layers of glue and cloth. I thought this was interesting because the bodies are still identifiable even after thousands of years of being dead. The priests and engineers were second from the top in Egypt. The engineers were important because they were in charge of building the pyramids. The pyramids are still standing today. The pyramids had many passageways and hallways that led to certain rooms. Explorers still to this day do not know everything about pyramids. They thought they were only used as graveyards for the pharaohs but the other bodies inside proved them wrong. Our test has now been moved to Wednesday, which I am kind of happy about because I have another day to study but all my other teacher moved their tests to Wednesday too. I will just have to work hard this week.
