Why were eyes painted on the outside of the coffin?

English
1 answer:
vodomira [7]2 years ago
6 0

According to ancient Egyptian belief the deceased could see through the coffin, they placed eyes in the same position where they would usually sit on the deceased because after they died they eyes would decay so they could no longer tell where they were.

They were basically painted there so that the eyes would be more easily located after the person had died.

Answer:

"Ain’t this the living gall!"

"They don't do it like that anymore."

"Lord, Lord, Lord . . ."

Explanation:

These are the three options that develop the idea that racially charged confrontations can have a sudden and unpleasant impact. In the first case, the phrase "Ain’t this the living gall!" describes Ruth's reaction at facing this type of confrontation. She is amazed at seeing the lengths people will go to in order to avoid relationships with black people. The phrase "They don't do it like that anymore" describes how conflicts between white and black people have changed, but continue to be present. Finally, the phrase "Lord, Lord, Lord . . ." describes Mama's reaction at the awareness of being involved in this sort of conflict.
