VIDEOFor the video I chose is called

Myths of Mankind: The Osiris Myth.Because it explains so much more

than the Osiris Myth, but also a lost City that was destroyed that meant

so much to the people of Egypt. TheOsiris myth explains so much about the Egyptian Afterlife and this video

explains so much of it in a simple way.

BOOKPamela Bradley is an author and a

historian, and specializes a lot in ancient Egyptian history. Pamela

Bradley’s Ancient Egypt: Reconstructing the Past is such a

reliable source because her book isused in colleges for exams, and

history lessons. She has a degreein the area of history.

PICTURESMy pictures which I have chosen represent, the strong beliefs of the Egyptian people and is evidence that they did in fact believe in an Afterlife. They show the great importance to visitors from other lands who may have visited Egypt.

WEBSITEThe BBC website is what I decided to have for another website. BBC is a reliable company as is their website. They are worldwide, and a company such as BBC needs to be dependable for their viewers. The website has a lot of information that is consistent with my subject on the afterlife of Egypt.

RSS FEEDI choose this RSS feed because it is relevant to my topic choice and is updated regularly. Which is good because it makes I am not getting old information but I am getting up to date information.

Why this topic?Egypt, was one of the most powerful

civilisations of the ancient world. And many in this age have forgotten this. I have always found Egypt a land of mystery and wonder. Egypt has always been interesting to mesince I was very young.
