ANCIENT TOMBS OF EGYPT
PROF. EATON,S SECOND LECTURE IN
THE SHEEFIDLDCOUR

Curious Beliefs in Regard to the Dead
Among the Egyptians-Reason for Pre-
serving the Bodies Believed That Soul
and Body Was TO be Reunited After Death
"A Very Interesting Lecture.
Professor d. Cady Eaton in his sec
ond lecture on Egypt" in the Sheffield
course last evening gave most in
structive and entertaining description
of some of the ancient Egyptian tombs.
An account of some of the curious
burial customs and beliefs of the Egyp-
tians is given below:
Before examining tombs brief
statement of the ideas held by the an
Gent Egyptians about death and the
dead may come. as an introduction. The
poor seemed to have been regarded as
cattle, most thievish, most UNFORTUNATE
and most villainous worshippers of Ma
bomet in the known world. Many a
brave man and enduring woman after
the torture of that day returns at once
phatic expression that the rest of the
bile, including the cook, may go as far
as Halifax at least The best way to
visit Sahara is in a sand cart from
Gizeh. These carts, which are quite
comfortable, are made with very broad
wooden tires, which prevent the wheels
from sinking into the sand. With a
good donkey you can make the distance
in an hour and a half. A shallow
trench and scant covering for the
burial of sand sufficed of their soul
less bodies. But the rich and the mighty
We're immortal
Most generically stated, the Egyp-
tians believed that at death body and
soul were to be reunited at some dis
tant time; and that the body must
be preserved so as to make possible the
reunion. No very satisfactory idea of
the details of the processes can be
had. Documents are not fully reliable.
Those who have studied them do not
agree. Sori1e points, however, seem
sufficiently established. The soul OF
living principle, or whatever you choose
to call it. was composed of several
parts. First in importance was the
"Ka" or double. Exactly what the
"Ka" was is obscure.
Next in iniportnee to the ''Ka" was
the "Ab" or heart regarded as the
principle or source of human life. At
death the ''Ab" returned to heaven
. and stayed there till the deceased
reached the hall Of judgment in the
lower world. There it appeared as a
witness for or against him. IF the YER
dict was favorable it reioined the
'Ab." The deceased would hereby be-
come immortal In order that some
kind OF life be preserved in the mummy.

substitute for the heart, with pro-
visional heart. This provisional heart
was large artificial scarab. The un-
der side was fiat and on it was en-
graved a species of prayer or Invocation
to the heart itself, beseeching it to be
kind and merciful when it appeared in
the hall Of judgment Another immor-
tai ingredient was the "Ba" or spirit,
a conception which nearly corresponds
to our idea of the soul. 1t was repre-
scented at times as a human headed
bird; at other times by a ram headed
scarabeus.
The 'Ba"is often perched on top of
the mummy as if bidding it goodbye
before departing for the home of the
gods. The "Ba' could, and often did,
revisit the mummy and on those occa-
sions expected to find offerings of food
and drink for its acceptance and use.
The next view shows a ''Ba" flying
down the shaft leading to the under
ground tomb of the mummy. The no.
ton of representing the soul as bird
or as child, with or without wings,
is common to many nations and is not
repulsive to Christianity. There were
two other entities which made up the
immortal man; the "Kharb" or shadow.
represented by fan, and the "Sahu, :"
which semes to have been q species of
immortal outline, or exterior. 1t is no
wonder that the poor Egyptian, with so
many things inside of him, should have
become confused when attempting to
discriminate and describe. That mod
ern investigators share his confusion is
most natural. The Book Of the Dead, >"
in which these various components APP
pear, and which is the source of fnfor-
nation on the subject, is confusing, as
we Will see when We come to examine
1t.
There was still another thing, and a
very important thing, called Osiris.
The Osiris corresponds to our ghost
and the Greek shade The Osiris is the
thing which goes below and is sub
jected to the trials of the Egyptian
purgatory. The Osiris resembles the
deceased and has his character and
peculiartties. Osiris is the name of the
great god, husband of Isis and father
of Horns, who was killed by his wicked
brother and thereafter became the king
of the next world. The fact that each
shade that appears before him is called
by this name adds still further TO the
difficulty of obtaining clear views of
Egyptian theology
