Carlos and I decided to go to The Metropolitan Museum of Art aka MET. Its located in Manhattan near Central Park. It’s the largest art Museum in the United States. The site was beautiful. There were beautiful water sprinklers and the structure of the building is astonishing. When we walked in, we immediately saw ancient Egypt statues. We walked into The Prehistory of Egypt. We saw statues, hieroglyphics, ancient writings, and how pyramids were built. It was fascinating to learn all these new things about Egypt.

In the picture below, I am with a Mummy in a tombstone. It’s unbelievable of how Egyptians would burry people as mummies. They will be rapped up in natron and then drain all the fluids in the body and take out the brain. Then they will insert a sharp object that looks like a sickle into the nostril all the way through until the back of the head. Then they will remove all the internal organs, the lungs, liver, stomach, and intestines. There’s more to it, but i’m not going to talk about it in depth. The point is this is just one, only one of the many customs, rituals, beliefs that ancient Egypt had. The whole point of mummification was so the soul in the afterlife will be happy and pleasurable. It was fascinating visiting the MET and hopefully one day I’ll go again to see more than just Egypt.
