Editor's Notes

- Narmer was an ancient Egyptian pharaoh of the Early Dynastic Period. He is thought to be the successor to the pharaohs Scorpion and/or Ka, and he is considered by some to be the unifier of Egypt and founder of the First Dynasty, and therefore the first pharaoh of unified Egypt. http://rainbowjam.weebly.com/king-narmer.html http://www.nndb.com/people/540/000163051/ http://www.stewartsynopsis.com/black_egyptians_are_the_original.htm
- The largest pyramid, the Great Pyramid of Khufu, covers an amazing 13 acres and originally stood 488 feet (149m) high. Due to wear and theft of the beautiful limestones used as the outer walls, the structure now stands only 455 feet (138m) high. Around 1,300,000 bricks were used, but not bricks like we think of today. The ‘little’ cut limestone pieces weigh 5,500 pounds each and the larger ones weigh 33,000 pounds! It's 756 feet long on each side, 450 feet high and is composed of 2,300,000 blocks of stone, each averaging 2 1/2 tons in weight. Despite the makers' limited surveying tools, no side is more than 8 inches different in length than another, and the whole structure is perfectly oriented to the points of the compass. Even in the 19th century, it was the tallest building in the world and, at the age of 4,500 years, it is the only one of the famous "Seven Wonders of the Ancient World" that still stands. Even today it remains the most massive building on Earth. It is the Great Pyramid of Khufu, at Giza, Egypt http://www.unmuseum.org/kpyramid.htm http://www.andrewgough.co.uk/khufu.html

- Queen Hatshepsut was born in the 18th Dynasty or New Kingdom. She ruled between 1479-1458/57. She ruled in a time when women were allowed to own property and to hold official positions. They were given rights to inherit from deceased family members and were allowed to present their cases in court. Women of the 18th Dynasty had more freedom then other ancient cultures such as Greece where women were expected to stay home. http://www.perankhgroup.com/famous_egyptians.htm

- Queen Tiye of the Armana Period during the 18th Dynasty. Tiye’s son Akhenaton came into power and it was during his rule that Queen Tiye took action that has most decisively marked history. Up until then Egyptians, like many others, were polytheists, they saw the world around them as governed by several gods. But suddenly, under Queen Tiye’s influence, the Pharaoh proclaimed for the first time in human history, a single God-Aton. This reform may have inspired Moses to establish the monotheism that has since spread all over the globe. So today when people pray to God in a church, mosque or synagogue, they may be, in some way, under the invisible influence of Queen Tiye. http://www.heptune.com/Akhnaten.html#Akhenaten of Amarna

- Maat was the personification of the fundamental order of the universe, without which all of creation would perish. The primary duty of the pharaoh was to uphold this order by maintaining the law and administering justice. To reflect this, many pharaohs took the title "Beloved of Maat," emphasizing their focus on justice and truth. Goddess Of Truth, Balance, and Right Order At any event in which something would be judged, Maat was said to be present, and her name would be invoked so that the judge involved would rule correctly and impartially. In the underworld, the heart of the deceased was weighed by Anubis against Maat's feather. If the heart was heavy with wicked deeds, it would outweigh the feather, and the soul would be fed to Ammit. But if the scales were balanced, indicating that the deceased was a just and honorable person in life, he would be welcomed by Osiris into the Blessed Land. Maat's presence in all worlds was universal, and all the gods deferred to her.

- The Ankh was, for the ancient Egyptians, the symbol (the actual Hieroglyphic sign) of life but it is an enduring icon that remains with us even today as a Christian cross. It is one of the most potent symbols represented in Egyptian art, often forming a part of decorative motifs. http://www.happehtheory.com/2013/07/13/the-secret-of-the-ankh-incomplete/
- Scarabs are associated with the Egyptian god, Khepri. It was Khepri that pushed the sun across the sky. The scarab beetle became an ancient Egyptian symbol for rebirth, the ability to be reborn. Each day the sun disappeared, always to rise again and be reborn the following day. The god Khepri, which literally means "He who is Coming into Being", was a creator god and a solar deity. He was represented as a scarab or dung beetle, or as a man with a beetle head. The scarab beetle was observed to roll it's eggs in a ball of dung along the ground, and the ball was identified with the sun. The baby beetles were seen to emerge from the primeval mound and so dung beetles were thought capable of spontaneous creation. http://www.egyptian-scarabs.co.uk/

- Also known by his Greek name, Cheops, the Egyptian pharaoh Khufu was the second pharaoh of the Fourth Dynasty, famous for building the Great Pyramid at Giza. Khufu's full name was Khnum-Khufwy, which means '[the god] Khnum protect me'. He was the son of Sneferu and Queen Hetepheres I, and is believed to have had three wives. He is famous for building the Great Pyramid at Giza, one of the seven wonders of the world, but apart from this, we know very little about him. His only surviving statue is, ironically, the smallest piece of Egyptian royal sculpture ever discovered: a 7.5 cm (3 inch) high ivory statue found at Abydos. http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/historic_figures/khufu.shtml
- Pharaoh Ahmose I Founder of 18th Dynasty 1550-1526 BC http://www.aldokkan.com/egypt/ahmose.htm
- Egyptian Pharaoh Khefren (Khafre) Khafre was the son of king Khufu and queen Henutsen, and followed his elder half-brother as pharaoh. He was married with his (half?) sister with whom he had the son, Menkaure, the king to be. At least six more off springs of his are known by name. It's not known why he succeeded by his half-brother on the throne, but it is possible that none of his former king's sons had survived and that Khafre thus was the oldest surviving male descendant of their father Khufu. He built his pyramid at Giza a bit south of his father's great monument and in a loftier position making it look bigger, but it's a bit smaller in all directions. The humble name it was given was "The Great Pyramid" (hieroglyphs in picture left). http://www.nemo.nu/ibisportal/0egyptintro/3egypt/index.htm
