Amenophis III

Ask Amenophis:

  Do any modern cultures practice mummification?  
  Why are mummies wrapped in bandages?  
  Who was the first Pharaoh whose name we know?  
Egyptians trained for their careers from a very early age. Most Egyptians learned the trade of their fathers, but any Egyptian who showed talent could be sent to school to become a scribe.
