This is an interactive site -- one program teaches you how to create a mummy and another how to build a tomb! It is a history site on Egypt where you can view pictures and inscriptions from Ancient Egyptian tombs. This site contains primary sources, though in its self it is not a primary source.

Hey, check out this website about primary and secondary sources - http://www.writing.ku.edu/students/docs/primary.shtml
It states that primary sources may be unreliable - so just because it may be a primary source does not mean that it is reliable. Also, a primary source contains information directly from or about the source. So, because this site has documents and pictures from and about Ancient Egypt, makes it a primary source.
Hope this helps!
