Ancient Egypt: Episode Three - Mummification

[missnatasha992]

internal organs were left inside the body, not taken out

[Pagyptsian]

@missnatasha992 It depends entirely on the time period. this is the generic example of mummification but it was different on each dynasty and period.

[HistoryLover1550]

@Pagyptsian When I was younger I mummified halloween toy skeletons and action figures, I tried to follow the mummification steps as closely as possible, lol. Great video!

[Pagyptsian]

@HistoryLover1550 Awh bless you! xD

[HistoryLover1550]

@Pagyptsian Thank u :)

[PuntHornofSomalia]

oromos, amhara, tigre, tigranya, tigray, and harari all suffer from the disjunction between place & language, place & displacement, therefore their only solution to retaining a non-indegenious land such as ethiopia, an artificial country whose its above mentioned inhabitants were imported from yemen, is clinging to a belief in the adequacy of numbers, in the sense that ethiopians are 80 million while Somalis are only 20 million. oromos are a collection of low cast tribes banished by Somalis

[Miglink1234]

just imagine having one of those spells scrolls it would be awesome

[Howfar9]

really helpful, thanks!

[rweerakkody4565]

this sequence you showed is one of the many combinations for mummification, the osiris picture painted may not have been in all cases: king tut was not found in bandages

[Pagyptsian]

@rweerakkody4565 Yeah, this is just a general explanation. There are so many variables so this is just for basic understanding :)

[alexeidig]

natron= salt...? isnt it?

[Pagyptsian]

@alexeidig Natural Natron is only found in Egypt I believe. But modern Kemetics can recreate it using 1.100 Grams of Bicarbonate (Baking Soda)

2.25 Grams of Sodium Chloride (Table salt, preferably Kosher, do not use Sea Salt).

[alexeidig]

Take a look, another great documentary about Ancient Egypt

[5769JJ]

Very good job....only thing is members of the royal family had their arms bent across the chest isntead of down low...a bent right arm across the chest meant "pharoah"...bent left arm meant queen or female royal family member.

[Pagyptsian]

@5769JJ Thank you for that info, always good to learn something new :)

[tonhontunggia]

Good job :)

[Pagyptsian]

@tonhontunggia Thanks!

[michaelpenamante1]

[Asiya40]

that's creepy ! i want to vomit when i see this ! BUAAAAAARGH !

[Pagyptsian]

@Asiya40 lol ^^ nice

One little remark, the mummification process that you show in these magnificent pictures, was bestowed for the wealthier class. Ordinary or common people could not afford a process and burial as this. They were buried as you show in your first picture. A simple grave in the dessert, with some meager offerings. But I must say, great work you did, one of the best representations about mummification Ive ever seen.

[Pagyptsian]

@Ranoferhotep Yeah I learnt about that. What I don't know though is where were they buried exactly? You hear so much about the King's tombs but not much about the others in the non-royal yet wealthy class.

And thankyou so much! :)

[Ranoferhotep]

@Pagyptsian, There are different burial sites known, the oldest in Sakkarah and Gizeh, but also in Upper Egypt, near the Nubian border, are splendid tombs rediscovered. On the west bank of the Nile, there is another valley known as the valley of the nobles a burial site where the wealthier people of Thebes were buried. And off course the valley of the queens which was reserved for queens, but also princes and princesses of Egypt.

[Pagyptsian]

@Ranoferhotep Thankyou for the information :)

[Ranoferhotep]

@Pagyptsian My pleasure, I had to be brief, we dont have that many characters we can type here. Trough Google, there is plenty to be found about the ancient tombs, sometimes tricky to find the Wright keywords.

May I use your video on my blog? My blog is in Dutch, but I can post the translation of your text in Dutch. With credits

[Pagyptsian]

@Ranoferhotep This video? You may so long as you credit me please :)

[Ranoferhotep]

@Pagyptsian Thank You, off course I will credit you

[Kellylovecute]

So Cool, I would just love to see what life is like as an egyption

[Pagyptsian]

Me too! I'm really interested in reading about their everyday life style =]

x

[lemonlime301]

yes they did they felt that the brain ment nothing so thaat is why they distroied it and thanks

[lemonlime301]

i am not a know it all but accualy they used the hook to mash-up the brain into a liquid and pored out of the nose

[Pagyptsian]

That's ok ^^ It fascinates me so I want to learn. I know that's one way they did it (books all vary in description), diddn't they have a special table with a type of basin attached for it to trickle into?

[princessannikki]

[fliegeroh]

If the soul was judged not so good, where did it spend eternity according to the Egyptians. Did they have a hell?

[93Azzael7]

That kind of souls were eaten by Ammit, i think.

[Pagyptsian]

Yep =]

x

[Pagyptsian]

If their hearts were heavier than the feather of Maat then their hearts (and thus souls) were eaten by Ammut/Ammit.

In some beliefs the souls who did not make it to the egyptian kind of enlightenment would be forever lost in the duat.

Others lost their soul forever and could never return. That for them was worse than hell. =]

[Cult93]
