  2. Ka
    The ka is usually translated as "double", it represents a person's double. It is what we would call a spirit or a soul. The ka was created at the same time as the physical body. It was believed that the ram-headed god Khnum crafted the ka on his potter's wheel at the time of a persons birth. A persons ka would live on after their body had died. It was thought that when someone died they "met their ka". The ka existed in the physical world and resided in the tomb (House of the Ka). It had the same needs that the person had in life, which was to eat, drink, etc. The Egyptians left offerings of food, drink, and worldly possessions in tombs for the ka to use.

3 December 2008

This day in history:
Agatha Christie disappeared on December 3 1926, having left her Surrey home just before ten that evening. Her car was found see-sawing at the edge of a chalk pit, with no clues as to where the authoress had gone. Subsequently it emerged that she had made her way to London and then took the train to the genteel spa town of Harrogate in Yorkshire. In Harrogate she took a room at the luxurious Swan Hydro Hotel, registering under the name Mrs Neele. The police alerted Archie Christie, and the authoress returned home. To her dying day she insisted she had suffered from amnesia brought on by the double blow of bereavement and the impending end of her marriage, which did indeed end two years later. read more
