Sixth grade students studied the chemical sedimentary rock Halite in science class and the process of mummification amongst the Egyptians and other ancient cultures in humanities class. Students learned that the drying and curing of meats with salt made it almost 100 times more valuable in ancient days. Students recreated the mummification process by measuring and then rolling chicken legs in salt, wrapping the legs in cheesecloth, and entombing the mini mummies for forty days in salt and clove beds. Not quite the process given King Tut, but similar in style.
