Tutankhamun
Tutankhamun was a pharaoh of Egypt who ruled from 1334 BC to 1325 BC. He became pharaoh at age 9 after his father Akhenaten's death. In 1922, English archaeologist Howard Carter discovered Tutankhamun's nearly intact tomb in the Valley of the Kings, containing over 3,000 treasures intended to help him in the afterlife. The discovery of the boy king's tomb sparked widespread interest in ancient Egypt.
Discovering tut
King Tut's mummy was CT scanned in 2005, over 80 years after its discovery by Howard Carter in 1922. The scan revealed that Tut's breastbone and ribs were missing, indicating he did not die of natural causes but from a broken leg that was exacerbated by malaria. DNA testing and further scans of Tut and other royal mummies helped establish Tut's family tree and identified health issues like a cleft palate and clubfoot. While some deaths after Tut's tomb's discovery were attributed to a curse, advances in science have provided new insights into Tut's life, death, and lineage.
Ancient Egypt by Jamie J and Ivan
The document discusses several aspects of ancient Egyptian civilization including famous pharaohs like Tutankhamun, how they told time and built pyramids, mummification practices, weapons and transportation, and more. Tutankhamun came to power at age nine and his tomb was discovered in 1922 by Howard Carter. The Egyptians built the first pyramid at Giza around 2650 BC as the burial place for King Djoser and it took around 20 years to build a single pyramid. Mummification involved removing organs and wrapping the body in cloth with beetles eating the skin.

King Tutankhamen, known as King Tut, was an Egyptian pharaoh who ruled from age 9 until his death at age 19. The 1922 discovery of his intact tomb in the Valley of the Kings by archaeologist Howard Carter was extremely significant because it provided valuable clues about ancient Egyptian culture and beliefs. Carter was stunned to find the tomb filled with over 5,000 objects made of gold and precious materials that gave insights into daily life, burial practices, trade, and politics during Tut's reign over a unified Egypt.
Egyptian civilisation hh.w.5
Egyptian civilization developed along the fertile banks of the Nile River around 5000 BC. The annual flooding of the Nile provided rich soil for agriculture. Egyptian society was highly stratified, with the Pharaoh seen as a god-king who demanded complete obedience. When Pharaohs died, they were mummified and buried with treasures for the afterlife. King Tutankhamen ascended the throne as a boy and died mysteriously at age 19. His tomb, discovered in 1922, was filled with artifacts that taught us about ancient Egyptian culture, religion, and daily life.
Ancient Egypt
The Temple of Karnak in ancient Egypt was one of the largest religious structures in the world, covering around 200 acres. Built more than 2,000 years ago, it featured decorated walls, tall columns, and statues. The temple was dedicated to the Egyptian gods Amun, Mut, and Khonsu.

Recycling and pollution
Recycling helps reduce air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions which contributes to climate change. Proper recycling and reducing car, trash burning, and fireplace use can help lower air pollution. If plastic waste is not curbed, fish populations are at risk as many ingest plastic instead of food and can die with plastic in their stomachs, threatening fish in the seas.
Plastic pollution (1)
Plastic pollution in the ocean is a significant problem, with over 30 million bottles and cans thrown into the sea daily in Spain alone and over 1 million masks found in oceans this year. An organization called The Ocean Cleanup was founded in 2013 to develop extraction technologies to remove plastic already in the oceans and intercept more at rivers, having received over $31.5 million in donations to address this issue threatening wildlife such as the whale found with over 125 plastic items in its body.
Recycle
Plastic recycling is important to address as plastics are contaminating marine animals and most die of starvation with plastic filled stomachs. Plastics in the ocean fill the stomachs of marine animals so they can no longer eat and they starve to death. Increased plastic recycling efforts are needed to reduce plastic waste that ends up in oceans harming wildlife.
Pollution
The project aimed to reduce waste in the region by cleaning beaches, roads, and seas with the help of citizen volunteers. After the cleanup efforts, activities and conferences were held to raise awareness about global and local environmental problems caused by coastal waste, particularly plastics. Citizens were engaged to help clean the area and learn about sustainable consumption habits.
