BR 2-13: Egyptians

Egyptians have very long history from ancient era. I'm interested in ancient Egypt, so I read this book. I know little about ancient Egypt's culture, habit, and king. When I finished to read, I was moved of tomb of kings. There are many treasures in the tombs. They are very beautiful. I thought that is strange "eyes"are drawn in tombs. I want to know the reason and mean. It is hard to make a pyramid. Not only make figure of pyramid, they had to make mammy and decorate inside pyramid. Ancient Egyptians were loyal to their king, but there were people who didn't like their king. I want to know how they feel when they make their king's tomb. I was surprised that there are many Egyptian gods. I like an Egyptian god of sun. It is cool. Also, I'm interested in ancient Egyptian letters. The letters are called "hieroglyph". It looks pictures, but ancient Egyptians read and wrote the letters. That is mysterious.
