Whether you are teaching ancient Egyptians and are discussing mummies or need some fun mummy information for around Halloween~ I have compiled lots of fun mummy facts. For example:
1. Some male and female mummies were buried with extra hair wigs!
2. The mummy of Pharoah Ramses 11 has a PASSPORT! When his mummy traveled to France from Egypt~ a passport was issued for his travels!
3. Licorice root and watermelon seeds were found in King Tut's tomb including a change of underwear!
I have also included lots of great resources (including interactive activities and video clips) and extension activities. The resource Amazing Mummy Facts is free. Check it out at EdWorld Exchange: http://edworldexchange.com/?q=node/250
Hope you find it of value to use with your students!
