SUMMARY:Excavate Virtual Egyptian Artifacts Online
DESCRIPTION:This activity is fun for all ages. Play the archaeology inspired Excavate! Egypt™ game online in celebration of International Archaeology Day. This is a virtual all-day event. \nExplore four culturally important “dig sites” including Alexandria\, Giza\, Valley of the Kings\, and Karnak. There are over 50 artifacts to uncover and analyze. Explore a worker’s village in Giza and the temple of Karnak\, that highlight very different lifestyles and illustrate social class differences. Investigate the Valley of the Kings\, where past Pharaohs are mummified. Examine the library at Alexandria to gain a deeper understanding of the importance of learning and studying. Visit the sites in any order; your progress will be recorded in journals that log collected artifacts\, field notes and achievements.  At each location\, make meaning of how artifacts were used through a series of analysis questions and reports that help you consider the historical context of the primary source artifacts to make connections. \nPlay The Game – https://games.dig-itgames.com/game_directory/excavate-egypt-free/ \nArchaeology Day Blog – https://dig-itgames.com/international-archaeology-day-2021/ \nExcavate!
