Inside Ancient Egypt

At 11:00 am we arrived at the exhibit. Inside Ancient Egypt was inside the Field Museum.  Before we started to look around we saw a sign that said “ A lot of the artifacts are not real.” We saw a mummy with a gold face, it was called Mummy with the gilt face.  We learned that many people think Egyptians were obsessed with the dead, that is NOT true. We also learned that many years ago robbers stole some of the mummies.  Chantel said “EWW! There all shriveled up!”  we thought it was neat that the Egyptians preserve the mummies so well. The exhibit didn’t remind me much of
New Glarus , except that there are a lot of things that have been around for awhile.
