Embalm Your Own Mummy! Discover Ancient Burial Rituals! Includes Body Organs, Shroud, and Canopic Jars! This exploration kit combines lessons in science, archaeology, and anthropology with the experience of creating your very own mummy! The kit includes a mummy figurine, major internal organs with canopic jars for storing them, gauze for wrapping, and cardboard press-out amulets to protect the spirit as it travels to the afterlife and more! Lift the Lid on Mummies shows how mummification was the key to the afterlife in many ancient cultures, mainly in ancient Egypt, South America and China, and asks how South Americans mummified their dead and how a 2000-year-old iceman was found intact.
