Clearly, it is not that clear for the ancient Egyptians.
But you're right in terms of...
Life, birth, having a good time, there are gods associated with those things, but when it comes to the ultimate transition out of life, yes, there are various gods particularly associated with death.
So first of all, it would depend who you are in the social hierarchy, where you are in Egypt.
Egypt's a big place.
When are we talking?
We've got a 3,000 year span.
So things are quite, although they can be quite regional and dependent on time, there is this overarching...
umbrella of consistency and that's what makes ancient Egypt and Egyptology so attractive because it seems like they all think the same because everything's so consistent and so kind of cookie cutter in design everything must be conceptually the same probably not so take your average person in the new kingdom so I'm talking say 1200 BCE and
uh almost three and a half thousand years ago you dropped dead as you say and you're someone fairly high up i don't think you have this cartesian division of body and soul it's much more complicated than that so to give you an example you're pootling along and you're aware on a sunny day that there is another entity following you when it's sunny
Oh, via the sun.
It's your shadow.
Right, I see.
That is part of you that you need not to lose after you die.
Right.
So we're really expanding, because in the pre-modern world, how do you explain shadows?
Yeah.
Because you can't see sunlight, really.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So there's all of this.
