Since jackals were often seen in cemeteries he was believed to watch over the dead. Egyptians knew Anubis as Anpu(Inpu) he was originally a god of the underworld, but became associated with the embalming process . His name is from the same root as the word for a royal child, "Inpu". However, it is also closely related to the word "Inp" which means "to decay".]]> 2017-11-01 14:06:23 UTC https://padlet.com/moralesmm/l1a6q1a46cx7/wish/202506413 moralesmm https://padlet.com/moralesmm/l1a6q1a46cx7/wish/202513565  Ancient Egypt plays a major role in the Bible. The Israelites were held captive there as slaves for many years. Moses helped them escape and led them to the Promised Land.]]> 2017-11-01 14:18:02 UTC https://padlet.com/moralesmm/l1a6q1a46cx7/wish/202513565 moralesmm https://padlet.com/moralesmm/l1a6q1a46cx7/wish/202731009  The earliest ancient Egyptians buried their dead in small pits in the desert. Later, the ancient Egyptians began burying their dead in coffins to protect them from wild animals in the desert. However, they realized that bodies placed in coffins decayed when they were not exposed to the hot, dry sand of the desert.Over many centuries, the ancient Egyptians developed a method of preserving bodies so they would remain lifelike. The process included embalming the bodies and wrapping them in strips of linen. Now  we call this process mummification.  They wanted their lives to continue beyond death, and strongly believed in preservation of the body and providing the deceased with all of the essentials they would need in the afterlife. To them, death was merely a brief disruption in life, and if the funeral practices were followed correctly, the deceased could live without pain in the Fields of Yalu. ]]> 2017-11-01 22:36:10 UTC https://padlet.com/moralesmm/l1a6q1a46cx7/wish/202731009 moralesmm https://padlet.com/moralesmm/l1a6q1a46cx7/wish/202750003 The ancient Egyptians believed that temples were the homes of the gods and goddesses. Every temple was dedicated to a god or goddess and he/she was worshipped there by the temple priests and the pharaoh. The large temple buildings were made of stone so that they would last forever. Temples were built to honor the gods the ancient Egyptians worshiped. These temples contained features like enormous statues, gardens, crocodiles , inscriptions, etc. Some of the most impressive temples were the Temple of Amun at Karnak, Abu Simbel, the Temple of Isis at Philae and the Temple of Horus at Edfu. ]]> 2017-11-02 00:55:42 UTC https://padlet.com/moralesmm/l1a6q1a46cx7/wish/202750003
