Unraveling Mummies: Modern Technology, Dissection, and Ancient Egypt, Grades 6-8
Modern technology allows us to view and study mummies like never before. Using CT scans and dissections of a real sheep heart, students dig into the culture, anatomy, beliefs, and mummification & burial practices exercised by ancient Egyptians. This laboratory experience combines these explorations of culture, anatomy, CT-scanning, organ function, and density to help students understand ancient Egyptian mummification as well as the application of modern technology in studying ancient cultures.
