Before Mr. I became a teacher, he traveled the world. Wherever Mr. I traveled to he would collect different artifacts or relics to remember his travels.

The Pyramids at Giza, is one of the places that Mr. I saw when he visited Egypt. He took a tour of the Pyramids and learned that they were the tombs of the Pharaoh's. When a Pharaoh died he would become a mummy. They would mummify him. Once he became a mummy they placed him into a tomb. Inside the tomb they placed jewels and other things that the pharaoh would need in the afterlife.
