  • Sarcophagus on Random Odd And Insane Things Ancient Pharaohs Were Buried With

    (#2) Sarcophagus

    King Tut was buried not just with a lot of stuff, but also with two unborn fetuses. In fact, they were his own biological children, possibly stillborn twins that his wife, Queen Ankhesenamun, gave birth to. One fetus was aged five months, the other between seven and nine months. Alternatively, Egyptologist Zahi Hawass doesn't believe these were Tut's kids, but someone else's children that would be reborn in the afterlife.

  • Jars Full Of Body Parts on Random Odd And Insane Things Ancient Pharaohs Were Buried With

    (#8) Jars Full Of Body Parts

    To live on in the afterlife, the deceased had to have their body parts buried with them, but their organs were removed during mummification, so priests stuck four major organs (liver, stomach, lungs, and intestines), dried out with natron, in containers called canopic jars. Each jar was under the auspices of a god, one of the four sons of Horus, each of whom had a protector goddess counterpart.

  • Murderous Throwing Sticks on Random Odd And Insane Things Ancient Pharaohs Were Buried With

    (#6) Murderous Throwing Sticks

    The ancient Egyptians killed waterfowl with throwing sticks that bore some similarities to Australian boomerangs. The upper-class noblemen often went hunting on the Nile, both to catch food and for fun. As a result, this leisurely activity was often shown on high-ranking mens' tomb walls, so they could do the same fun stuff in the afterlife.

  • Cosmetics, Wigs, And Perfumes on Random Odd And Insane Things Ancient Pharaohs Were Buried With

    (#9) Cosmetics, Wigs, And Perfumes

    As anyone would, Egyptians wanted to look good and smell good in the afterlife, so they brought tons of cosmetics with them. Tombs contained makeup kits, used by both men and women, rich and poor. Perhaps the most famous cosmetic, eyeliner (aka kohl), appeared in pots pretty much everywhere. Scent was just as important as looks; salves and perfumes were super-popular. Tut's tomb contained a stunning perfume box, for example, and clearly everyone loved a good wig, as witnessed by the many toppers found in eternal resting places.

  • Elaborate And Priceless Masks on Random Odd And Insane Things Ancient Pharaohs Were Buried With

    (#11) Elaborate And Priceless Masks

    King Tut's golden funeral mask is perhaps the most famous facial covering from the ancient world, but it's far from the only one. Mummies, especially upper-class ones, would boast masks that symbolized the body's transition from the human realm to the divine. In particular, pharaohs wore golden masks to symbolize their ascent to godhead (gold was seen as the flesh of the divine) and to invoke magical protection. 

  • Elaborate Board Games on Random Odd And Insane Things Ancient Pharaohs Were Buried With

    (#5) Elaborate Board Games

    Pharaohs needed to have fun after death - don't we all? - so they stocked up on board games in their tombs. One really popular one was senet, translated as "passing." It was sort of an ancient version of Parcheesi. Folks played them on many-squared boards; if you were rich, the boards might be made out of fancy materials like faience. Fun!
