Question

Paintings found in Egyptian tombs often show the ways the deceased hoped to spend their time in the afterlife.

Answer 1

Answer: The answer is a-TRUE.

Egyptian belief on afterlife-

• The Egyptians believed that art had the ability to connect with the gods and make an appeal to them on behalf of people who were alive or dead, which could be said to make their work magical.
• They frequently produced carvings, paintings, tomb paintings, and sculptures as their works of art. Egyptian tomb art was seen as the interface between the afterlife and the present.
• The Egyptians had the idea that some of the carvings, paintings, and figures they created for tombs would come to life and travel to the afterlife with the mummified dead.

• Egyptian afterlife doctrine said that the spirit would depart from the body (upon death) and take the shape of a bird known as "ba." then follow Ra's way, the deity of the sun.
• The sun was regarded as the ruler of everything that he created by the Egyptians since to them it stood for warmth, light, and expansion.
• As a result, the sun diety was a very important component of their culture. The bird (ba) had to find its way to the mummy in the burial chamber and join with it in order to be reincarnated after death.
• The coffin has to closely resemble the deceased's deified state in order for the returning ba to recognize it in order for this to occur.
• The main character is a ram-headed, bird-bodied god who is the sun god's afterlife persona and is depicted spreading his wings over the dead.
• The bird's tail continues in a column of hieroglyphic writing that is composed of a brief offering formula and that splits the surface of the lid beneath the waist into two symmetrical halves.
• Three scene panels with images of Osiris and protective funerary gods (the four Sons of Horus) run along each side. Below, winged sun discs offer the dead magical protection and rebirth.
