The Egyptians oi Tut-ankh-amen’s

of a combined spiritual body and soul.
This spiritual combination was known

an existence in the tombs.
These spirits of the dead—the KAS—
were believed to lead an existence not
unlike their earthly mode of livmg. To
assure happiness to the soul it was neces-
sary that the tombs contain, along with
ranancs
clothes,
the body, slaves and cattle,
and bakeries, war implements an
bod and drink. If the tombs should lack
any of these, the unfortunate Kl would
have to do without for time eternal.
Translations of some of the ancient
hieroglyphics show that it was a com-
mon with among dying Egyptians that
their KAS should rrceive bread and drink
which had been blessed before the altar
of the local god. This blessing of the
[cod and drink was supposed to make

BREAD COMMON 4,000 YEARS
AG
The sacred writings on the walls, the
votive offerings and the tombs them-
selves, all show that bread making was
a well-known art among the Egypt-tans
even 4.000 years ago. The care given
to placing the bread symbols in the
tombs shows how essential the Egyptians
maidered bread to befor the susten-
tnce of the KAS of their departed dear
mes.

wetre’s tomb, which had long since been
pillaged and robbed of its ancient linery,
discovered by chance a small room in
the tomb which had been overlooked by
the plunderers. For 4,000 years this
room had been scaled. In it were found
the re licss of his life 'events which
Mehenfwetre had taken with him to
the grave.
From an examination of these minia-
ture replicas, many of which are now
on exhibition in the Metropolitan Mu-
cum, it is possible to obtain a clear
idea of how bread was made 4,000
rem ago. ,

These investigations of the practices
and habits of the ancient Egyptians show
that bread, then as now, was a basic
part of the people's diet. The persist-
ence of this habit through century upon
century is evidence enough that man
has never been able to discover any
“staff of life”.
unique feature of ancient Egyptian
bread making was the tactic: of ba‘a-
ing a large number 0 loav at one

Bread", written in hieroglyphies on the
tomb of Hekanakht in 2004 B. C.. a
