In this episode we are missing Ava who was playing basketball (the activity she loves more than anything.) Lesley and Sue talk to Gayle Gibson, an Egyptologist who works with the Royal Ontario Museum teaching children about ancient Egypt. Gayle talks about how she became an Egyptologist. She tells us how and why the ancient Egyptians mummified their dead. Although Gayle wouldn't say who her favourite mummy is, she tells a fascinating story about Nahkt, a young 16 year old weaver who was wrapped in his old clothes but then placed in a very nice coffin and buried where kings were buried even though his family was quite poor. She tells us what we can learn from studying mummies. Of course we ask about the mummified cats in the museum and Gayle explains that cats were not the only animals the Egyptians mummified.
