c. Lesson Proper
All about Egypt
Ancient Egyptians worshipped over 1,400 differentiated gods and goddesses. The world’s
oldest dress was found in Egypt and it is 5, 000 years old.
The statue of liberty was intended for Egypt. The pyramids were built by paid laborers, not
by slaves. That’s a myth by Herodotus, a Greek historian.
Ancient Egyptians shaved off their eyebrows to mourn the death of their cats.
Most ancient Egyptian pyramids were built as tombs for pharaohs and their families.
The afterlife were incredibly important to them, they believed that by preserving a dead
person’s body (mummification) their soul will live on after life forever.
Unwrapped the bondage of an ancient mummy could stretch or 1.6 km The ancient
Egyptian invented a lot of things we stil use today such as papers, pens, locks, and keys,
and believe it or not – toothpaste!
