A Hair's Breath From History: Archaeologist Thomas M. Davis, Missing The 'Find' Of A Li... - 0 views

  •  
    In 1907, an archaeological team led by Thomas M. Davis discovered an intriguing pit in Egypt's Valley of the Kings. The pit was found to contain a number of artifacts, but none were particularly valuable (i.e., were not golden treasures and the like) and were generally regarded as uninteresting. It would be Howard Carter who would be the one to find "wonderful things" in the tomb of King Tut. But, did he unearth more?

Ancient Egyptian Government - 1 views

    Here you go, In Young! :)
  •  
    Ancient Egyptian Government was dominated by a single man, the Pharaoh. The people believed that the king was more than a man, however, but that he was a god. This gave him absolute control over the affairs of the Empire and its people. Ancient Egypt was also a theocracy, controlled by the clergy. The Pharaoh¹s advisors and ministers were almost always priests, who were considered the only ones worthy and able to carry out the god-king¹s commands. As in most religious ancient societies, priests had special status above the rest of the citizens, forming a kind of nobility.

    During this dynasty Egyptian culture advanced rapidly. The beginning is dusky with more than one candidate to be the founder. The table of Nabil Swelim below is based on the opinion that the complex of Djoser was a cultural peak that had developed for a period of about 60-80 years of the dynasty. There is no general agreement among scholars on this table. Khaba and Sa are usually put at the end of the dynasty topped by Sanakht followed by his brother Djoser. This era is famous for a new type of tomb which gave Egypt fame through of all times - the great Pyramids.
