Game
It was one of the coolest. We liked it alot and it was fun. We leared about which organs went into which jars and the order of mummification. The pictures were nasty but interesting.It made us hungry.

a. "Introduction" - Ancient Egyptian history spans how many centuries? What did the people believe Pharaoh was? How did they "achieve immortality"?
500. a living god. by having someone say the name of the dead person and preserve the body of a person once they had died, and wrap them up in linen bandages
b. "Dead" - What was embalming? Who did the embalming? What role did linen, your body, the priest, natron salt, canopic jars, tools, and oils play in the embalming process?
when the dead body was collected and cleaned. a priest. In order to remove some of your internal organs, a ‘slicer’ priest makes a long cut along the left side of your stomach. Your organs will be removed and embalmed separately, although your heart is left in your body — you will need this later on.
c. "Organs Removed" - Which organs were removed? What did they do with them?
Your liver, lungs, stomach and intestines are removed through the incision in your stomach and stored in canopic jars. Your body is washed out with palm wine and will now be soaked in natron for forty days to dry it out.
d. "Get Stuffed" - What does "Get Stuffed" refer to? What did they stuff you with?
the empty space where your organs were is filled with sawdust, rags and chaff.
e. "Tomb Bound" - What did they do to get your body ready for the tomb? What was involved in bandaging the body? What might be placed in your tomb if you were rich?
It will take 15 days to wrap you up and you will need 20 layers of linen bandages. Resin is used to glue the bandages together. Once completely wrapped in bandages, you are wrapped in two special large shrouds secured with linen strips.
f. "Coffins Etc" - Tell me about Ancient Egyptian coffins. What went in the coffins with the body? What went in the tomb with the coffin?
If you are very wealthy you could have as many as three coffins all fitting snugly inside one another. Make sure that they have pictures of the gods and the correct spells painted on them to protect you. Of course, they should also have plenty of hieroglyphs singing your praises written on them.
g. "Your Funeral" - What did an Ancient Egyptian funeral look like? Tell me about the procession.
Your coffin is taken there by boat and is then placed on a sledge and pulled to your tomb.A priest leads a procession of mourners, followed by bearers carrying food offerings and all the objects you will need in the afterlife
h. "Eternal Rest" - Tell me about tomb raiders. What do they do and what do they want?
The tomb goods shown below are prized by the robbers, and can make them very rich. But they are risking their lives — the penalty for tomb robbing is torture and then slow death by impalement

sumo wrestlers

a. What is SUMO? two people who are wearing nothing but a mawashi (loincloth), face each other in a dohyo (circular ring) and push, grapple, and try to throw each other.

b. How do wrestlers win at SUMO?When one of the wrestlers is forced out of the ring or touches the ground with any part of his body other than his feet, the referee raises the fan in his hand to declare the winner.

c. When did SUMO start? In Japan, figurines of sumo wrestlers have been unearthed dating back to between the third and seventh centuries, and the sport is mentioned in the myths and legends of the Kojiki and Nihonshoki (Japanese history books written in the eighth century).

d. What's a day in the life of a SUMO wrestler like?They wake up early at 5 in the morning to work out.At 8:00 am, the young wrestlers go to the kitchen to help prepare chanko. Chanko refers to the food eaten by sumo wrestlers, and it includes stews, Chinese food, sashimi, and deep-fried food.Sumo wrestlers eat two meals a day, having breakfast at around 11:00 am and dinner at about 6:00 pm. Practice ends at around 10:30 when the younger wrestlers have finished preparing the chanko, and the wrestlers then take a bath, with the higher-ranked ones going first. They eat breakfast after fixing their hair in a topknot. And of course when they eat, the higher-ranked wrestlers go first again. Once the morning meal is over, the wrestlers have free time. Many of them take naps to help them get bigger.
