Afterlife and focus’s on the question of
‘How did the burial practices of an

important were preparations for death
and the afterlife to the members of
ancient Egypt?’

3. QUESTIONS 1.What is your client’s research question and what is the real information needed? The question is ‘How
did the burial practices of an ancient society change over time? How important were preparations for
death and the afterlife to the members of ancient Egypt?’ The client needs information on the change
over time, for example mummification, progressed over the time of the ages and how different rules in
fact changed. Information in the funeral practices which also leads into the afterlife you need
preparations to led you into the afterlife.

over time on the burial practices.

myth. A few books maybe ten, so you can see if more historians agree on one thing than other.

things can be false), papers.

4. 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. The
Osiris myth explains so much about
the Egyptian Afterlife and this video
explains so much of it in a simple
way.

5. 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 is
used in colleges for exams, and
history lessons. She has a degree
in the area of history.

6. PICTURES
My 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.

7. WEBSITE
The 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.

8. RSS FEED
I 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.

9. 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 me
since I was very young.
