Personal Pyramid

The ancient Egyptians believed that when they died, they needed to be buried with items that they would need in the next life.  Some of these were items that would be of use to the pharaoh and others were things of personal importance.  Imagine that you are an ancient Egyptian.  Select 5 items that you would need for "survival" in the next life (things you can't "live" without).  Select 5 additional items that you would want to have with you for sentimental/personal value if you were planning your next life like an ancient Egyptian.  Be sure that you have a total of 10 items (5 useful/5 sentimental).  List these items and give at least one sentence of explanation as to why you selected each item. 

Please understand that I am not trying to influence your belief in what happens to you after this life... I am simply interested in having you think about what 5 things you couldn't live without and what 5 things would bring you the most emotional comfort to have with you.  If the concept of an "afterlife" offends you, imagine that you are soon to be stranded on a desert island.  Complete the assignment with the 10 items you would take there with you if you had time to pack.

  1. 5 items of use:
    1. Duct Tape- I am a firm believer that you can fix just about anything with this awesome invention.
    2. Seeds of fruits and vegetables: I love to garden and these seeds would allow me to grow my own food.
    3. Machete: This tool can help with many tasks- things from peeling apples to hacking down saplings to build a shelter. It could also serve as a defensive weapon is needed.
    4. Huge tarp: I would use this to create a shelter and if needed, it could also be used to create clothing.
    5. Flint: Without fire, things would not be good. I would want to make sure I have clean water and heat.

    Stay tuned for the next 5...

    3. Cooking tools (pots pans etc.) so I could bake things to eat.
    4. A variety of clothes so I could were something other than the bandages I was mummified in.
    5. A parrot egg – it wouldn’t die in the journey to the sun god’s (Rae) temple and then I’d have a pet that would live a very long time!
