Then I was AWAKE...
Excuse my manners, it's been a while since I've been awake! I've been underground for so so long. My name is Herb and I am a potsherd. Do you know what a potsherd is? Here take a look:
I use to be whole, I'm sure of it, but over time got worn out and broke apart, and thrown out.
It's been a while since I've seen the sun. Why? Well, I might be a little older than you imagined...
I was found in this place called Ancient Egypt. Ever heard of it before?
I'm sure you're thinking King Tut and mummies... and you're right! But there so much more to Ancient Egypt than that!
It's actually me, and other pottery and things used by the common people of Egypt, that are the most plentiful!
I'm here to tell you my story, from beginning to end. I am also going to tell you about how these funny people, called archaeologists, figure out my story.
Maybe not the most glamorous... I'm sad to say there is no gold in my story... but...
I promise you will learn a lot!
