A. performing manual labor

Explanation:

The scenes of the walls of the first Egyptian tombs feature activities such as hunting, fishing and farming environments; artistic and commercial activities; housework etc. Such reliefs show a confident belief in the future as a kind of extension of the present life.

All these sculptures were made in various sizes. Representative are the huge colossi of rulers and the small figures (shabtis) that were placed in the tombs and represented the workers who would accompany the deceased in the afterlife.

very interesting question. i'm a guy, so my vote hardly matters, but blue according to my wife is a purple with more blue than red.

the "brown"   is not mauve. that's the tough one. it has more brown the mauve in it. you almost need a color wheel to tell or a paint sample book. her gloves are a deeper purple.

i would also qualify this by saying you need say how good your monitor is. i'm working with a lap top so i couldn't swear by anything i've written is accurate. i had 3 women offer an opinion. they were not in agreement and they were not certain.

for posting. i'm more of a math type so i'm staying out of this but it was lots of fun.
