Ancient Egypt

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.

Pyramid building in ancient Egypt lasted from 2650BC to the time of the new kingdom c.1550BC. The greatest pyramid period was in the 4th dynasty (2613-2498BC) when the three pyramids (including the red pyramid, the first true pyramid) built by Snefru and the three great pyramids at Giza were built. Included in the Giza group is the Great Pyramid of Khufu (reigned 2589-66BC) the biggest and most accurately built of them all. The Great Pyramid remained the tallest structure in the world until it was surpassed by the spire of Lincoln Cathedral in the 14th century. The spire of Lincoln cathedral is long gone the earliest surviving structure today at 900ft is the Eiffel Tower built in 1889.

The Lion hieroglyph was used in Ancient Egypt to represent the two consonants R+W together. When Alexander the Great, a Greek-speaking Macedonian, conquered Egypt, he left it in the care of his general Ptolemy. When Alexander died, Ptolemy assumed the rule of Egypt. He and his descendants ruled the country, all the male rulers being called Ptolemy and all the females being called Cleopatra. They obviously needed some way of representing the L sound in their names, but sound L did not exist in Egyptian, so there was no hieroglyph to represent this sound. The scribes who wrote the inscriptions used the lion hieroglyph to represent the 'L' sound because RW was the closest sound in Egyptian to L. You will often see web pages that give Lion = L, but this is only partly true. The Lion hieroglyph was used in Ancient Egypt to represent the two consonants R+W together.

There is no easy answer. Some say it is like "Tote" others say it like "Thawth" or even "Te hote" In Egyptian Thoth is actually Tehuti (Te hoot ee or Te hoo tie) So whenever I see "Thoth" I pronounce it as close to the Egyptian I can and say "Te ho teh"

For more information on Thoth see related link below.

Pyramids are often thought of as the tombs in ancient Egypt.

Firstly, they were both the goddess of love, they were both married, and they both had fiery tempers. They also both loved making helpless mortals fall in love with each other, often against their will and they were both voted the most beautiful of the goddesses.

Aphrodite was a Greek goddess. Hathor was an Egyptian goddess.

To create riddles about Egypt's geography and historical events, I could incorporate clues like "the river that nourishes the land" for the Nile, or "the great stone guardians watching over tombs" for the Sphinx. Additionally, mentioning "the pyramid's ancient secrets" could hint at the Giza pyramids, while "the place where kings were buried" might refer to the Valley of the Kings. These clues would evoke imagery tied to Egypt's rich history and geography, guiding the solver toward the answers.

Egypt traded with many neighboring country's such as Nubia.

Nobody knows. Some think it fell because french solders used it for target practice.

It also might of just fallen by nature.

I'm not exactly sure what your question is referring to, or how you may have been led to believe a peasant farmer could not leave a "manor". Perhaps you are referring to not being able to leave the land they had been allotted to farm? There were tenant farmers in Egypt, but they were not slaves. While they had to pay to the landlord a portion of their crops -- and the landlord may have been either a private citizen or a group of priests associated with a temple -- as well as a portion in taxes to the government who used it to pay/feed their bureaucracy, army, palace staff, full and part time workers who helped build monuments as well as those conscripted to shore up dams, dikes, and canals prior to each year's flood, etc., they would have been free to spend their leisuretime as they saw fit. If that meant travelling, then they travelled, though probably few went very far. Up until recent times most "farm kids" never expected to go more than 50 miles from their farms within their lifetimes. While they went to town to worship and to purchase items they didn't grow themselves and could not make on their own, such as cloth for clothing, most stayed on the farm they were raised on, or, if their family managed to prosper either through farming or some side business, bought land close to the farm they had grown up on. Most Ancient Egyptian peasants built small boats for fishing made out of papyrus reeds, which were good for short journeys on the river, but to really get anywhere one had to book passage on a wooden boat or barge, which would have been not only expensive for a peasant farmer but also unnecessary. Their native pack animal was the donkey, which was good only for taking things to and from market or riding on for short periods, not for long journeys (only the army elite and wealthy people had horses, and these were not introduced into Egypt until about 1500 bce, over 1500 years after the country was united under one king). Their extended family lived nearby, there were temples throughout Egypt with "favourites" for each locality, and most of what they needed they could obtain through trade with other farmers or by attending the local market. Peasant people might have attended some of the larger religious festivals once or twice in their lifetimes, or made a pilgrimage to an important temple or tomb for reasons of personal or family illness, or as a way to obtain favour from a certain god or famous personage from the past. But unless they were lucky enough to live close to a large religious centre like Thebes, making such journeys and attending such festivals were a "once in a lifetime" event as most of their spiritual (and material) needs could be met fairly close to home. Egypt was what we call a "supply economy". That is, in exchange for farm produce as taxes, and for taking part in country wide building and irrigation projects (and these may have afforded young men (and some young women, too!) their only real chance to travel and see new things, AND they were fed and clothed during their time away from home which took some burden off the shoulders of their families), the government "supplied" by storing away grain for lean times as well as transporting, organizing and directing large groups to help build canals and public buildings near to their own farms. These conscriptions were probably looked forward to by young people as a chance to socialize with people their own ages before setting down to a family and full time farming; this system lasted for most of Ancient Egypt's 3000 year history, so could not have been seen as such a bad thing. All people of Egypt, men and women, had equal access to legal recourse, and though it is unlikely most actual peasants could read and write, their are many existing legal papyrus drawn up by scribes for peasant people that include wills, adoptions, marriage contracts, divorces, etc. Here is a link to a document entitled The Eloquent Peasant, about a rich man who steals from a poor man and how the poor man manages in his persistence to obtain justice.

Unnecessary cruelty was not part of the Ancient Egyptian fabric of life. Punishments were perhaps arbitrarily meted down by the some powerful landlords at times, but such behaviour was not approved of, and the peasants simply had to refuse to work at all if such aggravated behaviour persisted for long. Egypt was a land of farmers, and while most may not had had much in the way of material goods, the pharaoh and the entire country knew it could not operate for long without their cooperation.

Julius Ceaser was her first true love.

She never truly loved Marc Antony, she only loved Julius.

She was also forced to marry her 10 year old brother when she first took the throne.

It had Kings and counsels that made laws

They did not. Egyptians invented paparus, not paper.

The old collection

wherever they want it to be i guess

A mummy is an artifact. Also include the relief from the tomb of mentuemhet, the canopic jar of pa-ef-heri-nefer, and the anthropoid coffin.

They defeated the Hyksos in 1564

One reason scarab beetles were important to ancient Egyptians was because they were believed to symbolized the god Khepri who pushed the Sun ball through the sky like the beetles roll balls of dung.

We know that the Afterlife was important to ancient Egyptians because they spent so much time and money building pyramids and preserving bodies. They left behind copies of their Book of the Dead.

They wore collars made of precious gems and gold. They also wore headdresses. They wore the white cloth like a short skirt around there waist

Egyptians use Papyrus reeds to make papyrus, baskets and sandals. It was also used for column houses and rafts for river boats.
Papyrus is a plant that was used for paper-making and weaving.
