NO. the Ancient Egyptians did not practice this brand of Human sacrifice. also they had what amounted to a Moneyless economy. no Egyptian coins have been found in tombs, temples, or so on. Food for thought.

No slaves were not buried alive with the pharaoh, they used models of household slaves who they believed came to life in the afterlife.

Was Cleopatras husband buried with her?

No, Tutankhamen was buried alone like most (in not all) other pharaohs. His wife Ankhesenamun was buried in another grave. Both are buried in the Valley of the Kings though. In previous time of Egypt's ancient history, when pharaohs were still buried in pyramids, their wives had much smaller pyramids next to the pharaohs pyramid. Like the great pyramid of Giza (tomb of Khufu) has three minor pyramids at the feet of it, they are tombs of Khufu's wives. In the tomb of Tutankhamen though, there was two fetuses buried with him, which are most probably unborn children of Ankhesenamun and the pharaoh.
