Have you ever wondered what it´s like on the other Side? The ancient Egyptians knew a lot about it. This is your chance to secure Eternal Life for yourself!

This is where your Road to Eternal Life begins - If you succeed!

This is really three quizzes. When you have done all three you will know if you gained Eternal Life. At least you will gain a plaque.

All three levels start out from this page so you have to go back here to get to the next step.

Each step of the quiz is centered around a part of the route a deceased person had to go, in order to gain immortality.

-The first step is about the ritual of Opening the Mouth, which was performed on the coffin just outside the tomb, so that it would regain some life, enough to be able to travel through the Underworld.

To the First Step!

- The second step takes you travelling through the Underworld where you will have to get through some dangers until you finally can step ashore in the Hall of Ma'at.

To the Second Step!

- The third and last step deals with what happens in the Hall of Ma'at. This is where your knowledge will finally come to the test. Will you make it and gain Eternal life or will you be swallowed up by Ammit?

To the Third Step

You made all the steps?

You got most of it correct?

Alright, then you can go on to go pick up a plaque and read all the explanations.
