King Tut:

 * 1) 4.)

King Tut has supposedly had a cold and icy curse that ruled people’s actions like Howard Carter’s team. But scientists today have put to rest this “evil” mummy’s curse. They had many steps in the process to solve it. Lord Carnarvan was one of the victims in the supposed “curse”. First, the scientists learned a little about Carnarvan. They learned about his health, which was very bad, and his symptoms of his death. Then they come up with theories using knowledge. You can’t pull theories out of thin air with out evidence supporting it! Next, their best theory and investigate to find evidence. In this case, they had to find fresh mold. Patience has an important part too. They had to wait until they found a tomb that hasn’t been opened for over 2000 years. They got lucky and found one quick, but sometimes you might have to wait for many years! Next, they take their evidence and apply and study it. They take their evidence and make a conclusion. You always have to incorporate all facts that could be possible even small ones. Their investigation had been inconclusive because they couldn’t know if the dangerous mold had been in the tomb. Unfortunately, time can always hurt an investigation. There are many steps in investigations like Lord Carnarvan and the supposed King Tut’s curse. Hopefully, they shed some light on the curse but hopefully, one day they will find a true conclusion.

King Tut’s mystery is like a puzzle. Some people start with the outside of the puzzle and some people start with the middle. It is the same with the mystery, some people might start to figure out with a different part than someone else would try to figure it out. Also, the puzzles with more pieces are harder to figure it out and is like a mystery with more evidence. Each piece of a puzzle is like a piece of evidence in a mystery. A puzzle is different then a mystery though, because a puzzle has one picture in the end and you know what it is because there is a picure of it on the box wheras a mystery can have different evidence and you will never know how the picture will come out.


 * 1) 3. The mummification process in ancient Egypt can be compared with our funeral process today. They are (or were) both important ceremonies to ensure that our dead rest peacefully. Both processes include dressing up the dead and making them presentable. The funerals themselves are very similar, because they include the burying of the dead and generally prayers are said over the body. The Egyptians also influenced our idea of a good soul and bad soul after death, indicating where the soul will rest. The decision is made for Egyptians on the Scale of Ma'at. Obviously, Egyptian religion and culture greatly influenced our funeral and burial process today.


 * 1) 1.) After 3,330 years behind King Tut's mystery, scientists have finally analyzed his body and found out everything there is to know about King Tut. This dvd includes how Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon explored King Tut's tomb, and what happened to them during and after their exploration. It educates people about King Tut's curse and Egyptian history. For example it tells us information about gods and pharaohs. King Tut's curse is very interesting, because some say people who enter his tomb die from exposer to ancient, though others say it's because the bacteria and mold. It also tells us how King Tut lived his lifestyle, and how Lord Carnarvon died after entering Tut's tomb. The dvd even inludes the image of King Tut's face, plus much more.

6.) Technology can help solve many ancient mysteries. Many people say that technology is "spoiling" the mystery behind ancient beliefs, or that it "alters" history. Nothing can alter history, because it already happened. Technology, however, is solving the mysteries behind historical events. We would not know as much about Egypt without technology. These types of technology, such as CT scans, should definitely remain. They are helping to unlock the ancient mysteries behind many unsolved historical events and mysteries. Without these unlocked secrets, we cannot even hope to learn more about history.

Hey you guys, I posted some ideas for the intro and ending of the eulogy on here, feel free to use them or not, i was just writing randomly. i found this website that gave me some information but it was too detailed for our little project, remember don't copy!!!!!! [|http://www.thenagain.info/webChron/Africa/Hatshepsut.html]

Intro: We are gathered here today to mourn the death of Hatshepsut, who ruled Egypt for many years. She was the first woman ruler of Egypt. She was a kind, peaceful woman who didn't care for war. Egypt's trade grew larger while she was in the place of the pharaoh. Hatshepsut was a wonderful woman.

Hatshepsut died after Thutmose III came back to take over Egypt as the pharaoh. There is evidence to prove that she "disappeared" mysteriously after his return. we shall mourn her death for a long time. -Jessica

that's good i luv it we need to figure out who is doing what part i wanted to the beginning and end but you did it so i'll find something elso i love it though its awsum i can maybe do how she died if that's ok with everyone? I can make up something since she disappeared like she got bit by a snake, she drank poisin, or anything else?
 * Hailey** *

yea you can make up anything and that was just an idea you can add to it if you want Hailey, and you could make it out like he killed her by putting a snake in her bed or something (got that idea from Cleopatra, lol) and that website, people, isnt the greatest website in the world just to let you guys know. **//__*~Jessica~*__//**

actually rachael wanted to do how she died so she's going to do that and i'm going to do the idiety and explanation, and the motto and explanation and what is our g-ds name gonna be how bout /~!*Hailey*!~\

WE SHOULD MAKE THE EULOGY RIGHT HERE LIKE THE GOOD COPY SORT OF LIKE WRITE YOUR PARAGRAPH AND THEN PEOPLE WILL ADD ON TO IT WHERE THE PARAGRAPHS SHOULD GO AND EDIT ALL THE PARAGRAPHS IT SHOULD GO (INTRO, HOW SHE DIED, ACCOMPLISHMENTS, EXPLANATIONS OF SARCOUPHAGUS, AND THEN CONCLUSION UNLESS THERE ARE ANY MORE PARAGRAPHS THAT I DIDN'T WRITE JUST ADD IT WHERE YOU THINK IT SHOULD GO! USE YOUR GOOD JUDJMENT! Rachael is that the beginning of your paragraph or is it the whole thing?**
 * I moved the paragraphs around in order you guys can move them in what ever place you thnk is good that's just what i did.

We are gathered here today to mourn the death of Tuspehstah. She was a wonderful pharaoh who did many things for Egypt. She ruled here for twenty-six years. She will be placed in the garden of Raj and Hak. This garden was her most beloved place in the world. She would come here to collect her thoughts and to be in peace. The candles around her sarcophagus represent her beauty. One of her last requests before she died was that she be surrounded by candles. We sit here mourning her by candlelight. Let us have a moment of silence.

Tuspehstah's death was a tragic loss. Her death was mysterious and devestating. One day Tupehstah had vanished. The next day they had found her poisoned in her palace with a glass of wine in her hand. It was said to have been her brother who wanted the throne had taken her life. Others say it was suicide for all of the wars going on. It still and may forever remain a mystery. But she is still with us in our minds and hearts. Her spirit is still burinig alive in our minds right now.

Tuspehstah had many accomplishments. She had important accomplishments, and she had unimportant accomplishments. Her biggest accomplishment was that she built a temple in Cairo. The temple was called Djeser-djeseru, which means sacred of sacreds. She also had built many monuments in honor of Raj and Hak. She was able to rule during the 19th dynasty. She also organized "a journey to the land of Bluscke", which is when they went there to exchange goods. She had conqured many empires out of peace rather than with armies, and she had good relations withother countries so trade was very prosporousas well. Tuspehstah was able to give farmers and civilians more territory, which was better for farmers because they would be able to grow more crops. She was able to restore many buildings that were damaged by the Sulkian kings. She had the ability to keep her country friendly and peaceful during her ruling. Tuspehstah had more accomplishments than her achievements. Though her biggest achievement was that she showed the world a woman could be a pharaoh or queen, with or without the help of gods. **She proved to everyone in Egypt that woman were as good as men. Tuspehstah was an amazing pharoah and an amazing woman. She had many more accomplishments and achievements.** **Tuspehestah will remain in our hearts until we move into the afterlife with her, then she will be in our presence also. Tuspehstah loved everyone in Egypt and everyone loved her, because she was just an amazing person.**

On this beautifully decorated sarcauphogus are two swans. These two swans represent love. They go by the name of Raj and Hak. When put together, their necks form into the shape of a heart. They stand untied together as one, not two gods. Tuspehstah was against war and was very loving to all people. Raj and Hak are made after Tuspehstah. They love each other and everyone else around them. Also, on this sarcouphagus is a motto written in heiroglyphics that Tuspehstah lives by. This motto is, "love a lot, fight little". Tuspehstah lives by this motto because she was against war and was for love. She was a loving pharoh and cared for everyone. This motto was a motto to live by for every person, not just Tuspehstah. This sarcauphagus also includes many symbols. These symbols are the ankh, the scarab, the lotus, the scales, the eye of horus, the beard, and the crook and flail. All of these symbols have important meanings, the ankh means everlasting life, the lotus means rebirth and recreation, and the eye of horus means protection, the scales mean justice, the beard is the symbol of the pharoh, and the crook and flail are the symbols of royalty. These symbols represented Tupehstah and some were very dear to her. This sarcouphagus is wonderfully decorated and is so beautiful, it's almost as beautiful as Tuspehstah.

Tuspehstah was a great person. Don't remember her for the bad, but for the good! She had helped our kingdom grow stong and powerful. May her spirit find its way back so she may live once more with the ankh as her guide. May we live on forever with her memories and wisdom as our guide. She has gained immortality to all of us and will always be with us. **If anyone would like to see your beloved, Tuspehstah, this is the time.** (Deepa goes up and drops rose.) **Does anyone else wish to see Tuspehstah at this time? (Rachael goes up and drops flowers then following after her is Shannon who also drops flowers).** Let us bow our heads one last time before our ceremony ends. (Wait 8 seconds and Hailey starts bawling!) **Thank you for coming and remember to keep this beloved woman and pharaoh, Tuspehstah, in your mind and more importantly in your heart. //__May you go in peace and may Tuspehstah's spirit bless you wherever you go.__//
