Death of a pharaoh. How did the ancient Egyptians handle it??


King Tut's Death Mask
 The death of a king was always regarded as a shattering and indeed earth-shaking event.  A deceased king was referred to as netjer-nefer "The Perfect God."  The GORGEOUS pyramids and other elaborate tombs were built for the pharaohs and their beautiful queens.  Their ruler was buried with everything he would need in the afterlife [cool huh?] including gold, furniture, food, etc.
