We have had the History Van in school to help us find out more about the life and death of Pharaoh Ramses II. Using clues from the discovery of his temple (the Ramesseum) and his tomb we have found out such a lot more about Ancient Egyptian life and beliefs. We made Scarab pendants, scribed our own cartouche, made flour on a grindstone, played their games. We also created a dance, re-enacted the Battle of Kadesh and even prepared a body for mummification! See if you can spot these…
