Have you ever wondered who built the pyramids? The huge triangle-shaped buildings in Egypt. Well if you have, slaves didn’t build the pyramids. This is because according to Document A, Herodotus said, “He compelled all Egyptians to work for him.” He also said, “They worked in gangs of a hundred thousand men, each gang for three months.”

Document A, B, and E all have many reasonings that slaves did build the pyramids. Slaves definitely built the pyramids considering about 8,000,000 Egyptians or even all the Egyptians built the pyramids; in other words they were lash-driven men which a lash-driven man is mostly a slave. Some people would say that some workers were found in tombs and no one would ever honer a slave that nicely. Nevertheless whoever buried the people can't bury 8,000,000 people in one tomb.
Introduction This paper will analyze and compare the Egyptian Standing Figure of Osiris with Egyptian Mummy Coffin of Pedusiri, visual elements of Ancient and Medieval Art and Architecture works from the collection of the Milwaukee Art Museum. By comparing and contrasting these two works, we will be able to see the salient parts of each of them more clearly and can better understand the relationship between their periods, cultures, or artists. This comparison will also reveal how these two cultures view the human anatomy and human spirit in different ways.

In the article “Toward an Understanding of the Use of the Myth in the Pyramid Texts” by Jennifer Hellum it is argued that the divinity of the pharaoh was a method of reinforcing the claim and right to rule. This article argues that the Pyramid Texts were for the elite to interpret. The article is very helpful in providing context in the creation and mythology of the work. This is needed to compare to the context in the making of the Last Judgment of Hunefer.

Justice is a central theme in many classic literary works, reflecting societal values and moral questions of the times. This essay analyzes the representation of justice in three significant texts: "The Odyssey" by Homer, "Cry, the Beloved Country" by Alan Paton, and the ESV Bible.
