What's in the Trunk?: Egypt Template (posted in Classroom)
Like other ancient societies, Egypt had a class structure of various groups of people. At the top was the ruling elite and at the bottom was the unskilled workers or slaves. Egypts upper class was made up of nobles, priests, and other wealthy merchants. The middle class were the people who owned businesses while the lower class were those who did the physical labor.
You and your group will present your trunk to the class. After your group presents their artifacts, the class will try to guess who owned the trunk (which social class they belonged to).
Overview
You and your group will be assigned a person from ancient Egypt. Based on what you know about that person, and some research, you will curate a trunk with important artifacts that would have belonged to that person.
