Make a Mummy Tomb
Introduction
Ancient Egyptians believed in life after death. Wealthy Egyptians made careful preparations for their dead by mummifying their bodies and providing them with tombs supplied with equipment, food, clothing, ornaments, furniture, statues of gods, and workers -- everything they would need in their new lives.
Make a replica of an Egyptian tomb complete with a mummy case, wall paintings, and treasures for fun or as a group project. Or choose to make just one tomb treasure or a wall painting. Each part of this Try This! is a project in itself.
Before you begin, consult books about ancient Egypt to get ideas about what tombs were like and what treasures they held.
Make an Egyptian tomb model
By turning a rectangular(长方形的)box on its side, you can create a model tomb. You'll need to decorate the three interior walls with paintings. Ancient Egyptians often painted tombs with scenes of daily life—dancing, hunting, playing, feasting, and working—and the journey into the afterlife.
YOU WILL NEED
books about ancient Egypt
cardboard wooden box that measures at least 12 to 14 inches (30 to 36 centimeters) long and 9 to 10 inches (23 to 25 centimeters) wide
ruler
pencil
drawing paper
watercolor paints or felt-tip markers
fine-tipped paintbrush
white glue
OPTIONAL
one cup (230 milliliters) flour
2/3 cup (156 milliliters) water
large bowl
spoon
strips of newspaper
Here's How
1. Find a cardboard or wooden box and turn it on its side. The bottom of the box will form. the long back "wall" of your tomb. Tear off any flaps. Then measure the walls of your tomb.
2. Cut pieces of drawing paper to fit the three different walls of your tomb.
3. Make a grid of squares across each sheet with a ruler. Egyptian draftsmen scored tomb walks in a grid pattern before artists started drawing. This helped the artists compose their work and make it exact.
4.On each sheet draw your picture and use the grid to help you form. rows of hieroglyphs(象形文字).
5.Erase extra lines that don't form. part of your drawing, and then paint your scene. Let your painting dry.
6.Optional: Mix the flour and water together in a bowl. Dip the newspaper strips into the mix and add one layer around the outside top and sides of your box. Let this dry. Then paint the outside of your box a sandy color. The walls' roughness will make it look like your tomb was formed from reek.
7. Once your box is dry, glue your drawings to the walls of your tomb.
Make a mummy case
A mummy was often placed in one or more mummy cases to help protect it. Sometimes mummy cases were placed into sarcophaguses (石棺). The cases displayed a portrait of the dead person, images of Egyptian gods, and hieroglyphic writing. Make one for your model tomb.
