Egyptian casket

Afterlife at the British Museum

The paintings on this Egyptian coffin make me wonder if this art was for our eyes or was the art for their God’s eyes? The ancient Egyptians were trying to achieve an everlasting life and what better way that to build stone monuments and fill burial chambers with precious metals and jewels. King Tutankhamun was found wearing a gold mask and his was a short reign and he has been called a minor king who died in a possible riding or chariot accident. There are probably more people who know of him today than in his lifetime and his artifacts will continue on through time, well past the ends of our lives. Is that everlasting life? Is heaven the 2nd floor of the British Museum?

This is in the mummy room at the British Museum which is an exciting place of discovery for most who visit.

What if photographs of the drawings from ancient Egypt were made part of the esp game. What would the guesses be, would the data that is verified have any real meaning?
