M5; Egyptian Safari

       
My first stop in Ancient Egypt,the Nile River. Here I observed its topography, vegetation,and water source.















My second stop is King Tut's tomb. I stand there, looking at his tomb, wondering if he will kill me.









You're paralyzed. King Tut will not regret paralyzing you if you disobey his orders.











 I feel bad for whoever gets cut by this,because it is sharp. You could use this for cutting a really thick 18 ounce steak sandwich.


                                                    







Staring cautiously, Ankhenaten walks away.  He looked scary when he was staring at me.















  Here is what the soldiers looked like in the war. Some had bows and arrows,axes,sickle swords and some had spears.









                                               





 Here is Ra. Some people called him the god of the sun. He was a real Egyptian god.

M4: I help Ra with a war

                    Well I have finally landed and the year is 3000 B.C.E.  I am now standing in front of an enormous army of Egyptian soldiers. I see Ra taking out his dagger so I decide to open the wool sack that Tutankhamun had given me and I find a golden sickle sword. There are to things about participating in a war. 1. once you kill someone, people might call you a murderer.
2. there's a whole bunch of blood and gore.(which by the way is, AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
                      Anyway, back to where I was at. Grunting furiously,Ra yelled out
"CHAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGGEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
 Everybody started running towards the Kush soldiers. Spears started being shot and shields were starting to break. So far I have executed 30 soldiers from Kush. In less than an hour the war was over. We won. Well, Tutankhamun asked me a favor and I did it. It's now time for me to go. I made my position and in three short seconds,I was gone.

M3:Meeting Tutankhamun;Part 2/2 I Meet Tutankhamen

              The year is 1334 B.C.E.  I am standing outside of his famous tomb. My cousin had told me that if you disobeyed one of his orders,he will paralyze you for the rest of eternity. While making my way inside of the tomb, I saw some hieroglyphics. If you translated it to English, it will say Tomb of Tutankhamun. I got in and right in front of me was the one,the only Tutankhamun. It's so weird how a 9 year old pharaoh can boss you around. Oh no. He saw me.
               "You there." he shouted.
"Who,me?" I asked with a squeaky voice.
"YES YOU!!" he shouted angrily."Who else would I be talking to?" he asked simultaneously.
"Well sorry." I answered with a tone."I just thought you were talking to one of your servers. You know,Aye."
"Oh,well in that case,come help me with something."he said. As I followed along I saw his father Ankhenaten. I stopped and stared for a minute.
"What are you waiting for,you stupid peasant?" yelled out Tutankhamun.
"Nothing." I answered. We walked into a room filled with hieroglyphics. Grinning mysteriously,Tutankhamun slammed the door.
"Why did you do that for?" I asked.
"I have a secret to tell you." he answered
"What is it?" I asked with a chill going down my body.
"I know you're a time traveler." he whispered.
 "How did you find out?" I asked.
"I saw you just appear outside of my temple. How could anyone do that. Everybody knows only a time traveler could do that." he answered."Look,since you're a time traveler,I need to ask you a favor."he whispered.
"Wait by ask you a favor,do you mean you want me to kill someone?"I asked
"Not exactly. You see,I need you to fight for my city. You need to help Ra with the war on Egypt." he answered.
"Okay, but why can't you do it?"I asked.
"Because I'm only 9 years old and,if I die, who will ruler be? Not me." he answered with a bratty voice.
"Okay,I'll do it."I answeres acting like I was just asked to wash the dishes. As I asumed my position, Tutankhamun gave me a wool sack."What is this?I asked
"You'll find out when the moment's right."he answered. I asumed my tt position.(short for time traveling)
And in three short seconds,I was gone.

M3:Meeting Tutankhamun;Part 1/2 The History of Tutankhamun

             I have finally landed on my destination. I am still in ancient Egypt. The year is 1334 B.C.E. This is the year that the pharaoh named Tutankhamun reigned as a pharaoh. He reigned from the age of 9, to the age of 19. He is the twelfth pharaoh of the eighteenth dynasty of Egypt. He reigned from 1332 B.C.E-1323 B.C.E. He is now known as King Tut. Since he was young and had a lot of duties to fulfill, he had a server named Aye and the servers helper named general Horemhab.
             He married his half sister. Her name was Ankhesenpaaten, the daughter of Akhenaten. He too was a child of  Ankhenaten. He is known for his mummy and his tomb. He had two premature babies with her. Both of them were females. The mummies of his two daughters were both found in his tomb.
                 No one knew the cause of his death. Little believe that he was murdered by Aye and general Horemhab.  A lot of people believe he died because of his heath. They thought he had an infected broken leg that was not treated well. When scientists inspected his body, they found malaria where his leg was at. They said he was a young man who needed a cane to walk.
