"So do you really believe these people existed? Like they were kings and priests or something? Or is it all myth?"

Molly tried to take notes on the lecture and what others asked in class. Mostly though, she just doodled in her notebook.

Pippi does her best to pay attention during the lecture.

Blair turns in his homework on Apep or Apophis who was an evil demon, the deification of darkness and chaos, and thus opponent of light and Ma'at (order/truth), whose existence was believed about from the Middle Kingdom onwards.

Because she didn't know much about her, Pippi wrote about Isis. She talks about how Isis went from being Horus' wife to being his mother when she becomes the mother of Osirus... Who is her brother. Which is kinda creepy.

Pippi suspects also that she is her own grandpa.

"Isis" means "Queen of the Throne", and in honor of his is often depicted with a chair on her head. Pippi thinks that this is a nice sentament, but ultimately undignified.

Pippi comes up to Daniel after class.

"Dr. Jackson? I've been really enjoying the class... But um... Are we ever going to... Ya know... Try to dig things up?"

Re: Homework the_ascended March 29 2006, 18:26:21 UTC

Daniel nodded. "I'd like for you to all get some experience," he said. "I'm looking into seeing if there's anything close by I could perhaps take you too and they won't mind high school students being present. If not, I'm planning on asking Professor MacGyver if we can use the danger room for a recreation."

"Oh boy!" she gleed. "That sounds like great fun!"
