Did Romans worship Egyptian gods?
Augustus encouraged Romans to accept the eastern practice of deifying emperors after their death. (The Egyptian Pharaohs had always been regarded as gods).
Augustus himself was made a god after his death, and so was his wife Livia. Tiberius and Caligula were not made gods (they were unpopular) but Claudius was. Many Roman emperors were deified after death, many were not. It depended on how popular they were.
What skills were needed to be an ancient Egyptian pharaoh?
The job had both rewards and risks. Staying alive would be the first and foremost skill a Roman emperor would need. Then he would have to be a good judge of people in selecting his advisers and administrators. He would have to have a feel for the people in order to prevent civil unrest. Most important of all he would have to be on good terms with the army so that they would have no reason to mutiny and throw their support behind some other imperial wannabe.

What do you know about the life of King Tutankhamun from all the artifacts found in his tomb?
The life of the Pharaoh commonly referred to as King Tut ( this is no offense to his full name ) had artifacts that say allot about his short life. He was a wealthy pharaoh as so much gold was found in the tomb. A chariot was also found indicating that he was a hunter and/or a warrior. He died at the age of 18, and the exact cause of his death is an unknown part of ancient Egyptian history.
How many bodies and treasure were recovered from the great pyramids?
None. Nothing was found inside the Great Pyramid, not even a body. There are also no hieroglyphs anywhere, only graffiti written much later and not by the pyramid builders.
Inscriptions have been found on some of the stones above the King's Chamber that are indicated to have been drawn by the quarry workers themselves. Some of the inscriptions are upside down showing that they were written on during the cutting of the stone blocks, and had been turned upside down during the placement of the stones in their final resting position.
Who is the fourth Pharaoh of Egypt?
Though historians are not completely sure, it is believed that Anedjib, Enezib who seems to have been from the area around Abydos and is recorded as a Thinite king on theSaqqara King List from the tomb of Thunery, was the 5th ruler of Egypt's 1st Dynasty. Anedjib was this king's Horus name, which means "Safe is His Heart". If he is to be identified with Manetho's Miebidos (Miebis, Merpubia), then he may have ruled Egypt for about 26 years. However, most Egyptologists seem to give him a somewhat shorter reign.
There are several places with the name Alexandria in the world but the most well known one is in Egypt.

What does scribes mean in Ancient Egyptians?
As in many countries where the majority of people were and are illiterate, scribes performed a very useful function in enabling people to communicate with one another at a distance.
Also, their function was to be present at ceremonial occasions to record the details, so that in the future it would not be necessary to rely on people's memory of the event.
The ancient Egyptians had very meticulous record-keeping systems for their harvests, building works, etc., and all this information would have been noted down by the scribes.
So much of what we know today about ancient Egypt is due to the existence of the scribes and the artists (painters), who were really another kind of scribe, as the ancient Egyptians used hieroglyphics, which were a kind picture-writing, as they did not use letters to make words as most Western languages do today.
