Blog 4

For this blog i chose to answer the question about the afterlife of a pharaoh, and this is found on page 98 of the text.

 How is the afterlife of the pharaoh represented in this text?
The afterlife of Pharaoh Teti is seen as a passing into a grander height of the pharaoh's already lavish lifestyle. For example it says that all his feast are prepared for him and he passes through a gate that keeps the commoners out but still allows for him to be worshiped alongside his father, who he is reunited with. This means that even in death the Pharaoh will be living in royalty.
