The
Most Important part of the Egyptian life was what happened
after it was over. The possibility of eternal life was originally
reserved only for the Pharoah and family. Later this possibility
was extended to all Egyptians; rich, poor, low born or nobles. The
steps that were taken to ensure happiness in the afterlife were both elaborate
and complex. This page will touch on only part of the Egyptian views
of death and the life after. If you are interested in this topic,
a list of books for further research is given in the teacher's
corner.
