Ancient Egypt: The first capital was Memphis Egyptians were one of the first people to write on paper called papyrus. A mummy’s organs were placed in 4 canopic jars & placed inside the tomb. (Stomach, lungs, liver, & intestines.) Many pharaohs were buried in the Valley of the Kings to prevent tomb raiders from stealing the treasures. The Book of the Dead was placed inside the tomb & its spells allowed the soul or “ka” to travel in and out of the tomb.  The final judgment came when the heart was placed on a scale with a feather by Anubis. If the heart was light as the feather they may pass on into paradise.
