Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

The cult of death was inspired by the grand burials of the pharaohs. The walls of the burial chambers revealed much about ancient Egyptian life. They were painted with colored pigments, a technique known as fresco secco(dry fresco), or carved in relief with images visualizing sacred rituals and daily activities. Hieroglyphs formed an essential component of pictorial illustration, narrating the achievements of Egypt's rulers, listing the grave goods, and offering perpetual prayers for the deceased. From burial art, we can see how Egyptians conceived of the world, choosing to immortalize ideas rather than imitate reality.
