The Afterlife This is a scene of what Egyptians believed happened in the afterlife. They would be judged by having their heart weighed against a feather. If they had done evil their heart would weigh more than the feather and it would be eaten by the half crocodile half hippo Ammit. If it was lighter then they were deemed righteous and could join the after life.

Tomb Treasures The tomb-owner would continue after death the occupations of this life and so everything required was packed in the tomb along with the body. • Things might include a headrest, glass food was provided for the deceased and should the expected regular offerings of the descendants cease, food depicted on the walls of the tomb would be magically transformed to supply the needs of the dead.
