Best Answer

Piye and Taharaqo were considered powerful because they were pharoahs from a different empire, the Kushites (or Nubians). They kept the culture and the religion so the Egyptians didn't feel threatened.

How did egyptians believe the pharaoh was related to gods?

Egyptians believed that their pharaoh was a demi-god. He was not as powerful as the gods themselves, but he was a relative of theirs and able to communicate with them. One of the pharaoh's responsibilities was to appeal to the gods so they would make the sun rise in the morning and the annual inundation happen again. If these natural phenomena were not to occur, the pharaoh would be held responsible because the people would believe the gods did not like him. However, they always did, so people were usually very pleased with their pharaoh. This is part of the reason there were so few assassinations in ancient Egyptian society.The ancient egyptians thought the pharaoh was the son of gods and a god himself. One powerful king of Egypt named Ramses the second a.k.a Ramses the great made Egypt powerful through war. Another pharaoh named Hatsheptsut (the first woman pharaoh) made Egypt powerful through trade and waging war. One of the places she traded with is Punt. There was this weird king named Akentan changed the whole egyptians religion. He wanted them to believe one god named Aton. he didn't last very long and then 3 years after he died king tut took over. King tut depended on his advisors. They told him to change the religion back to the way it was. King Tut died when he was 19 years old.
