Pharaoh- This is the name for the king of Egypt. I drew a guy with a cone-like hat with a long rectangular beard.
Dynasty- a family of rulers. I drew a timeline with rulers with the same last name in the same dynasty.
Regent- Someone who rules for a child who is to become the pharaoh until the child is old enough to rule. I drew a stick figure and wrote Hatshepsut next to it.
Hatshepsut- a female ruler (who was a regent for Thutmose III.) known for her boldness against invaders and bringing economic (she encouraged trading) in the New Kingdom. When Thutmose III was of age, Hatshepsut refused to give the kingdom to him, until she died. I drew a female dressed like a pharaoh with a fake beard.
Thutmose III- a child pharaoh who later after his regent died, was a great pharaoh who conquered many places.
Afterlife- life after you die. I drew a bunch of ghosts celebrating and eating like people living do.
Pyramids- huge buildings with four sloping outside walls forming a triangle.
Mummy- a well preserved body. They would take all organs out, replace it with salt, bathe it in spices, then wrap it up with bandages. I drew a stick figure with stripes on it, which represents the bandages.
