Over twenty years ago, a naturally mummified, unknown 10-year-old girl was discovered in the sand close to a Roman fort near the Kharga Oasis in Egypt's southwestern desert. There were about 60 other nameless mummies found along with her. Who was...Students will learn about the following: 1. Archaeological research that is usually done to determine facts about the life of a mummified person. 2. What it may have been like for a young, Egyptian girl living under Roman conquest. 3. What life was like near a large desert oasis along a famous caravan route in Egypt.
I hold a Certificate of Museum Studies from Harvard University and a Diploma in Egyptology from Oxford College in England. And Iโve been to Egypt three times on personalized, educational tours. I've been captivated by ancient Egypt since I was 10 years old. And I feel it's my destiny to share my enthusiasm for and expertise on this beautiful and brilliant 5000-year-old civilization with all of you. I hope to see you soon for this or another class. I think you'll agree that The Egyptian Room is an attractive, fun and inspiring place to learn. And, please, if you like, call me Ms. Sennuwy - my chosen ancient Egyptian name.
