Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What ancient culture's beliefs about the afterlife included a ritual known as the Weighing of the Heart?

Answer: Egyptian

This ritual completed the passage of a person into the afterlife. It involved Horus, the god of the sky, and Thoth, the scribe of the dead, and they compared the heart or conscience to a feather. Those whose hearts were found to be heavy or bad were swallowed by a crocodile-headed creature called the Devourer of Souls. Those with light or good hearts were allowed to join Osiris, the god of the underworld, in the Happy Fields.

2. Which card in the card game Hearts, if you take it, is worth 13 points?

Answer: Queen of Spades

In the game of Hearts, the Queen of Spades is usually considered an unlucky card because it is worth 13 points if taken. The objective of Hearts is to earn the least amount of points. The only exception is when the player has all 13 hearts and the Queen of Spades. If the player has 13 hearts and the Queen of Spades, it is known as "shooting the moon". The player with the Queen of Spades gets 0 points, while all other players get 26 points.
