There is a very important part in Egyptian mythology about the Underworld and it's not mentioned in the lesson. I want you to do this;  How was treated the dead? Why? What happened to the souls in the underworld? Tell me everything you find about this topic and try to be more complete as possible.
Minimum of 300 words, but remember that more you will be precise and complete and more you will earn.

Please, no copy and paste from internet. If i will notice you will have only copy and paste from Internet, the work could also be the best in the world but it won’t give you full points.
