Name of Museum Introduction Back to Room 1 King Tutankhamen’s outer coffin was made of solid gold. In his tomb, there was many different objects that would help him in the Ancient Egyptian afterlife. There was chairs for him to sit in, statues of servants to serve him, and much more. His tomb had four rooms. In one of his rooms was his coffin which had six shrines, or layers. King Tut ruled Ancient Egypt from 1322 BCE and 1332 BCE. He died at around the age of nineteen. His tomb is in the Valley of the Kings, a burial site for many Ancient Egyptian kings near Thebes, an Ancient Egyptian city. Howard Carter found King Tut’s tomb almost completely untouched in the year The Ancient Egyptians were an important and advanced civilization because evidence of religion was found in King Tut’s tomb.

Name of Museum Body Paragraph Back to Room 2 Three examples related to King Tut’s tomb that shows that Ancient Egypt had a religion. First, the mummification and embalming of the pharaoh’s body shows that Ancient Egypt had a religion. The mummification and embalming helped preserve the body so their gods would bless Ancient Egypt. Second, they put objects in King Tut’s tomb for the afterlife. The objects such as chairs, swords, clothing, etc. gave him comfort in the afterlife, a place where the Egyptians believed they would go to after they died, which was much like life on earth. Third, they had a religious pre- burial ceremony for the pharaoh. It happened at the mouth of his tomb and the new pharaoh, the old head priest, touched the pharaoh’s coffin with religious items to restore the pharaoh’s senses for the afterlife. The three examples above clearly display that Ancient Egypt had a religion.
