Name of Museum In Ancient Egypt, tomb robbers were executed by being impaled on a wooden stake. King Tutankhamen (also known as King Tut) was one of the pharaohs in Ancient Egypt, although wasn’t that important back then. King Tut was buried in a tomb with four rooms and thousands of gold treasures. He served as a pharaoh from around 1332 B.C until around 1322 B.C, when he died. His tomb was discovered in 1922, by Howard Carter. King Tut’s tomb was found in the Valley of the Kings, in Thebes. In Ancient Egypt, the pharaohs had a very elaborate tomb and coffin so that they would have a good afterlife when they die. Therefore, King Tut’s tomb shows that Ancient Egypt was an important civilization because it shows examples of religion. Introduction Back to Room 1

Name of Museum There are three examples of how King Tut’s tomb shows that Ancient Egypt was an important civilization because of religion. The first example that shows religion and a civilization in King Tuts tomb is religious writing on the walls of the tomb. Religious writing on the walls shows civilization and religion because it shows that the embalming process took 70 days exactly and that the funeral rituals were done by priests. The second example that shows religion and civilization in King Tuts tomb is the golden death mask. The golden death mask shows religion because it has the cobra and vulture goddesses on it, and also has the false beard of Osiris, the death god. The final example that shows religion and civilization in King Tuts tomb is the coffin of King Tut. The coffin of King Tut shows religion and civilization because the goddess Nephthys (protector of the dead) is carved into King Tut’s tomb. Therefore, King Tut’s tomb shows that Ancient Egypt was an important civilization because of religion. Body Paragraph Back to Room 2
