Graveyards of the workers who built the pyramids were found on the Gaza plateau and will tell archaeologists more about life in ancient Egypt. The activities included give you ideas for conducting your own dig.
The ancient Egyptians saw no positive value in cultural change, except at the technological level, and they went to great lengths to prevent disruption in their society. Many of the rituals they performed encouraged continuity with earlier periods of their history that they visualized as ideal. As you explore the different themes presented in Life in Ancient Egypt look for examples of change and continuity, tradition and innovation.
