fun activity to do that represents egypt?

Question

So I'm in a group with about 5 people and we have a 35-40 minute speech tomorrow about egypt. So were supposed to do an activity with the class that has something to do with egypt. Another group that did india had this temporary tattoo stuff that you draw on yourself then leave it on for an hour then it stays there for a couple weeks. I want it to be something fun and interesting that the whole class will enjoy.
