Review for quiz day

Today in class we reviewed what would be in the quiz. He asked questions and we answered them. We went over some of the slides that would be on the test. Then we watched a mummification process video. It was a little gross but pretty amazing how they mummified a body for this long. It's even cooler that they did this so long ago and then they figured out how to do it. The process seems pretty simple but it probably takes a long time. We also watched a music video called King Tut on SNL. Here are some things on the quiz:
  • delta
  • Nile- how long 4,100 miles
  • Upper and Lower- how it's separated- snow makes Upper Egypt higher than lower even though upper Egypt is below Lower Egypt
  • Natural barriers - desert
  • Narmer- the first king to rule over unified Egypt
  • Pharoah
  • theocracy
  • pyramid - tombs
  • mummification - to be preserved for the afterlife
  • Ka - afterlife
  • translated the Rosetta Stone - Jean Francois
  • 3 languages - simple hieroglyphs, Greek language
  • figured out in 1892 in greek
  • papyrus
  • matt- harmony, and balance
