Tutankhamun's Egypt - Season 1 - Eps 5: Death and Burial
Mummies are the best-known relics of the ancient Egyptian civilisation. Together with the elaborate tombs of the pharaohs, they have created the impression that the Egyptians were a death-centred people with a very materialistic view of the after-life. In fact, their beliefs varied from age to age and from class to class within their society, and they were never really as sure about the next world as their monuments would have us believe. Introduced by Cyril Aldred from the 1972 Tutankhamun Exhibition at the British Museum.
