Through much of their several thousand years of life along the Nile, the Egyptians believed in an afterlife existence that mirrored their earthly life. Tombs were a home for eternity and combined domestic and highly religious conceptions of expectations for the future. How were these tombs built, by whom, and with what requirements? Join Dr. Betsy M. Bryan, Alexander Badawy Professor of Egyptian Art and Archaeology in a look at the tombs in process of decoration and consider why the scenes on the walls were chosen as part of a plan for the next life.
