Menes is the first ruler of Ancient Egypt to leave a written record. Manetho reported that Menes unified Upper and Lower Egypt into a single kingdom about 3100 years before the Common Era. Learn more / Daha fazlası https://www.archaeologs.com/w/menes/

[historyofancientegypt1]

The name of King "Mina" has become one of the most famous names in the collective memory of the Egyptian people. It is always associated with another phrase: "The Unification of the Two Lands," referring to the unification of the kingdoms of the North and the South, and thus the emergence of Egypt as a unified state and kingdom governed by a single ruler under a system that remained stable for nearly three thousand years, marking the beginning of the Dynastic Period. But how did we come to know about King "Mina"? How was the unification of the Two Lands achieved? And what are the Two Lands?

Ancient African Timeline: 3150 BCE The Egyptian States are Unified

Narmer, an ancient Egyptian pharaoh who reigned between 3273 and 2980 BCE during the Early Dynastic Period, is widely regarded as the unifier of Egypt and the founder of the First Dynasty. His reign marked a turning point in Egyptian history, as he is often credited with the unification of Upper and Lower Egypt, which laid the foundation for the powerful civilization that would endure for…

๋࣭ ⭑⚝ The Rise and Fall of Ancient Egyptian Civilization๋࣭ ⭑⚝

hey guys im back AND late but here was a very long and slightly complicated one enjoy :D

Ancient Egypt, one of the most iconic civilizations in history, thrived for over three millennia, leaving an indelible mark on human culture, art, and governance. Its history is a tapestry of great achievements and inevitable decline, shaped by its geographic advantages, complex social structure, and interactions with neighboring powers.

The Geographic Foundation of Egyptian Civilization

The Nile River was the foundation of Ancient Egypt's prosperity. Flowing northward through an arid desert, the Nile created a fertile strip of land that was ideal for agriculture. The river's annual inundation deposited nutrient-rich silt onto the land, enabling the Egyptians to grow abundant crops, which in turn supported a growing population and the development of a complex society.

Geography played a crucial role in the development of a unified Egyptian state. The Nile served as a natural highway, facilitating communication and trade between Upper and Lower Egypt. This unity was essential for the centralized control that characterized Ancient Egyptian governance. Moreover, the deserts to the east and west, and the cataracts of the Nile to the south, provided natural barriers that protected Egypt from invasions, allowing the civilization to flourish relatively undisturbed by external threats.

The Unification of Egypt and the Early Dynastic Period

Around 3100 BCE, King Narmer (often identified as Menes) achieved the unification of Upper and Lower Egypt, marking the beginning of the Early Dynastic Period (c. 3100–2686 BCE). This unification was a critical moment in Egyptian history, laying the groundwork for the centralized state that would dominate the region for centuries.

During this period, the pharaoh emerged as both a political and religious leader, considered a divine ruler responsible for maintaining Ma'at, the cosmic order. The early pharaohs established a bureaucratic system that allowed them to administer the state efficiently, collect taxes, and organize large-scale construction projects. The development of hieroglyphic writing during this time enabled the recording of official decrees, religious texts, and monumental inscriptions, further solidifying the authority of the pharaohs.

The Old Kingdom: The Age of the Pyramids

The Old Kingdom (c. 2686–2181 BCE), often referred to as the "Age of the Pyramids," saw the construction of some of the most enduring symbols of Ancient Egypt. The most famous of these is the Great Pyramid of Giza, built during the reign of Pharaoh Khufu (c. 2589–2566 BCE). This period was characterized by the centralization of power in the hands of the pharaoh, who was regarded as a living god responsible for the well-being of the state.

The economy of the Old Kingdom was based on a redistributive system, where the surplus from agriculture was collected by the state and used to fund massive construction projects, support the bureaucracy, and maintain the military. This system allowed the pharaohs to command vast resources, which were used to build monumental structures that symbolized their divine authority and ensured their legacy.

However, the immense resources required for these projects eventually strained the economy. By the end of the Sixth Dynasty, around 2181 BCE, the centralized power of the pharaohs began to decline. Low Nile floods, combined with the growing power of regional governors (nomarchs), led to a weakening of central authority and the collapse of the Old Kingdom, ushering in the First Intermediate Period.

The First Intermediate Period: A Time of Fragmentation

The First Intermediate Period (c. 2181–2055 BCE) was marked by political fragmentation and social instability. With the collapse of the Old Kingdom, Egypt split into several smaller, competing regions, each ruled by local leaders. This period is often described as a "dark age" in Egyptian history, characterized by a decline in monumental building, cultural achievements, and central authority.

Despite the challenges of this period, the resilience of Egyptian society eventually led to the reunification of the country. The rulers of Thebes, in Upper Egypt, gradually gained power and, by the end of the Eleventh Dynasty, succeeded in reuniting Egypt under the leadership of Pharaoh Mentuhotep II. This marked the beginning of the Middle Kingdom, a period of renewed stability and prosperity.

The Middle Kingdom: A Period of Renewal

The Middle Kingdom (c. 2055–1650 BCE) is often regarded as a renaissance period in Egyptian history. The pharaohs of the Middle Kingdom focused on consolidating their power, reforming the administration, and expanding Egypt's influence beyond its traditional borders.

One of the most significant achievements of the Middle Kingdom was the expansion of Egypt's borders into Nubia, a region rich in gold and other valuable resources. The Egyptians established a series of fortresses along the Nile in Nubia, securing control over the region and ensuring a steady supply of resources for the state. The Middle Kingdom also saw increased trade with the Levant and other regions, bringing in goods such as cedarwood, lapis lazuli, and silver.

The literature of the Middle Kingdom reflects a more introspective and realistic view of life compared to the Old Kingdom. Works such as the "Tale of Sinuhe" and the "Instructions of Amenemhat" emphasize themes of loyalty, morality, and the responsibilities of the pharaoh to his people. The concept of Ma'at continued to be central to Egyptian thought, but there was also a growing recognition of the complexities and challenges of maintaining order in the world.

The Middle Kingdom pharaohs undertook large-scale irrigation projects to improve agricultural productivity and prevent the famine that had plagued the late Old Kingdom. These projects included the construction of canals and reservoirs to control the Nile's flooding and to ensure a stable water supply for agriculture. The increased agricultural productivity contributed to the prosperity of the Middle Kingdom and supported the growth of a more complex and stratified society.

The Second Intermediate Period and the Rise of the New Kingdom

The decline of the Middle Kingdom led to the Second Intermediate Period (c. 1650–1550 BCE), a time of political instability and foreign invasions. The Hyksos, a group of Asiatic people, established themselves as rulers in Lower Egypt, introducing new technologies such as the horse-drawn chariot and composite bow. Meanwhile, native Egyptian rulers maintained power in Thebes, leading to a divided Egypt.

Eventually, the Theban rulers mounted a successful campaign to expel the Hyksos, leading to the reunification of Egypt under Ahmose I and the beginning of the New Kingdom (c. 1550–1070 BCE). This period is often referred to as the "Empire Period" due to Egypt's expansion and dominance over neighboring regions, including Nubia, the Levant, and parts of the Near East.

The New Kingdom pharaohs, such as Thutmose III, Hatshepsut, and Ramses II, expanded Egypt's borders through military campaigns and diplomatic alliances. The empire's wealth was further bolstered by tribute from conquered territories and extensive trade networks. The period also saw a resurgence in monumental building projects, with the construction of massive temples, such as those at Karnak and Luxor, and the rock-cut temples at Abu Simbel.

Religion played a central role in the New Kingdom, with the pharaohs increasingly emphasizing their divine status and their connection to the gods. The worship of the sun god Amun-Ra became particularly prominent, and the pharaohs were often depicted as the "son of Ra," chosen to rule by divine mandate. The New Kingdom also saw the rise of the powerful priesthood of Amun, which would later become a significant political force in its own right.

However, the immense costs of maintaining an empire, both in terms of resources and military commitments, gradually weakened the state. The death of Ramses II in 1213 BCE marked the beginning of a slow decline, as his successors struggled to maintain the empire's vast territories. Internal strife, including power struggles among the nobility and challenges to the authority of the pharaoh, further destabilized the kingdom.

The Decline and Fall of Ancient Egypt

The decline of Egypt accelerated during the Third Intermediate Period (c. 1070–664 BCE), a time characterized by political fragmentation and foreign invasions. The once-unified kingdom split into multiple smaller states, with the Libyans and Nubians establishing their own dynasties in different regions of Egypt. The arrival of the Sea Peoples, a confederation of naval raiders who caused widespread destruction throughout the Eastern Mediterranean, further strained Egypt's resources and military capabilities.

Despite these challenges, Egypt experienced a brief resurgence during the Late Period (c. 664–332 BCE) under the Saite dynasty, particularly under Pharaoh Psamtik I, who reasserted control over the country and repelled foreign invaders. The Saites focused on reviving the cultural and religious traditions of the past, as well as rebuilding the country's economy. However, this revival was short-lived, as Egypt was increasingly drawn into the conflicts of the larger Mediterranean world.

In 525 BCE, Egypt was conquered by the Persian Empire under Cambyses II, becoming a satrapy within the larger Achaemenid Empire. Although Egypt regained its independence briefly during the 28th to 30th Dynasties, it was finally and irrevocably absorbed into the Macedonian Empire following the conquest by Alexander the Great in 332 BCE. The subsequent Ptolemaic Period (305–30 BCE) represented a fusion of Greek and Egyptian cultures, but it was clear that the era of native Egyptian rule had come to an end.

The death of Cleopatra VII in 30 BCE and the annexation of Egypt by the Roman Empire marked the final chapter in the long and storied history of ancient Egyptian civilization. The fall of Egypt was not simply the result of external conquest, but also the culmination of centuries of internal decay, economic decline, and the gradual loss of autonomy in the face of rising foreign powers.

The rise and fall of ancient Egypt is a testament to the complex interplay of geography, governance, culture, and external forces in shaping the destiny of a civilization. From its origins along the life-giving Nile to its zenith as a powerful empire and its eventual decline, Egypt's history offers valuable insights into the factors that sustain and undermine civilizations. The legacy of ancient Egypt, preserved in its monuments, art, and written records, continues to influence and inspire the modern world. The civilization's story serves as both a cautionary tale and a reminder of the enduring achievements of human ingenuity and resilience.

Crowns of Ancient Egypt

A brief overview of the different kinds of crowns seen in Ancient Egyptian iconography. Note that I say crown, note headdress; the well-known nemes headdress and similar things not worn by the king and gods will not be covered.

Hedjet: translates as “White One,” the crown of Upper Egypt. Most famously worn by Nekhbet, Horus, and Satet. Nekhbet, the Patroness of Upper Egypt, was occasionally placed on the brow of this crown as an ornamental vulture.

Deshret: translates as “Red One,” the crown of Lower Egypt. Most famously worn by Wadjet, Horus, and Neith. Like her sister, Wadjet- the Patroness of Lower Egypt- would commonly adorn the crown as a uraeus. However, this symbol was featured on a majority of the other crowns as well.

Atef: a hedjet crown with two ostrich feathers on opposite sides. Most commonly associated with Osiris and his followers, but was also worn by Underworld related deities like Sokar.

Hemhem: translates as “to shout,” “cry out.” This translation has led to speculation that it was associated with battle or military power. It’s three atef crowns placed side by side atop curled ram horns; sometimes there is a solar disc above each atef, sometimes just the middle one, sometimes not present. Not specifically associated with any one deity, but Khnum and Sobek are often depicted wearing one.

Pschent: also called sekhemty- translating as “the Two Powerful Ones”- it combines the hedjet and deshret to become the crown of a unified Egypt. Though the Pharaoh Menes is said to have first united the crowns, surviving records show Djet was the first to wear it. Horus is the deity most commonly associated with it, but Atum-Ra was also shown wearing the double crown at times. The Two Ladies Nekhbet and Wadjet would both adorn this crown side by side, further symbolizing the union of Upper and Lower Egypt.

Khepresh: known to exist in the second intermediate period, but popularized in the New Kingdom; worn by pharaohs for militaristic and possibly religious purposes. It isn’t associated with any deities, but as with most royal headdresses it often featured a uraeus.

Cap Crown: one of the oldest crowns of Egypt recovered by Egyptologists, depictions of it stretch as far back as the Old Kingdom. Again, no particular deity is associated with it, seemingly exclusive to the human Pharaoh, but it did almost always feature a uraeus.

Solar Crown: also called a solar disc, this was used to not only signify a solar deity but royalty. It’s most commonly associated with Ra, but many other deities have worn one, even if only in rare depictions. Most commonly, the solar crown is also worn by deities like Horus-Ur (Horus the Elder), Isis, Hathor-Sekhmet, Amun, Tefnut, Bast.

Lunar Crown: like the solar crown, this can also be alternatively described as a lunar disc. Unlike its counterpart, however, it was rarely described with a single phrase despite being not uncommon in depictions. The closest it had to its own word was shared with the moon in general. The crown itself was depicted with the full moon resting in the curve of an upturned crescent moon. Deities like Khonsu and Thoth are most associated with this crown, but Tefnut and Mehit also wore it occasionally.

Two-Feathers Crown: also called the Amun crown as it was most commonly associated with him, but it is also worn by Montu and Min. Unlike the atef, these feathers are described as those of a falcon rather than an ostrich- but similar to the hemhem, they’re placed atop two ram horns and sometimes feature a solar disc.

The reign of the Pharaohs was longer than between the end of the Pharaohs to now

Most of us know well the last pharaoh of Egypt the great Cleopatra who died in 30bce over 2000 years ago but did you know that she is closer to our time now than she is to when the first ruler of Egypt ,or the first pharaoh, united upper and lower regions of Egypt?

The first pharaoh is believed by many scholars to be Narmer otherwise known as Menes. the first to unite upper and lower Egypt giving him the prestigious title of "the lord of two lands". this unification of Egypt and the birth of the first pharaoh occurred around 3100 bce over 3000 years before the end of Cleopatra.

Whats more, Narmer's wife Neithhotep appears to be the earliest recorded woman who name is known to us today. She also may have been a pharaoh herself making her the first known female ruler in history 5000 years ago. this could of happened after the death of her husband also making her the second pharaoh in history.

so there you have it, for 3000 years the pharaohs ruled Egypt 1000 years longer than when the last pharaoh died to now.

I was going to write a post about the "longest-lasting imperial title"

But I didn't, in the end. The way it was supposed to go is I would define an imperial title as one that asserts claim to a core territory and one or more periphery territories. To constrain things I was going to limit it to those who held at least some amount of temporal power over at least some of that area. I would specifically *not* have required an imperial title to be a monarchical one as well, asserting that a Roman Republican consul was just as much an emperor as any Czar or President of the United States. Titles could be in abeyance (say due to a revolution) but could maintain continuity after, just with the downtime not counted. After that I would introduce the commutative property of imperial titles, where the legacy of one imperial title is considered to continue if someone holds two simultaneously and one subsequently expires.

I had started out assuming the longest-lasting such title through the commutative property would start with "King of Sumer and Akkad", as that continued in use for over 1000 years and had continuity into Shah, but it turned out that the most compelling route was to start with Pharaoh of Egypt and conclude that that title still exists by the commutative property in the form of the Pope. In order to distinguish Pharaoh and King of Sumer and Akkad I had to figure out when Egypt became an empire, but that's when things started to fall apart.

The unification of the crowns of upper and lower Egypt by Narmer/Menes(?) could very much be defined as the founding of an empire, but today we consider Egypt to be one entity, meaning Pharaoh would only become an imperial title once it made a claim to land outside those of the ethnic Egyptians. But... were there ethnic Egyptians when the crowns were unified? Does an empire temporarily stop being an empire if ethnogenesis occurs within its area, then start again if it picks up new land again? If empire is defined by ethnicity, does a polity become an empire if it's temporarily conquered by outside ethnic group, and cease when it's ruled again by the native one?

This pushed me to step back another layer and assess my criteria from the top. Why had I started by defining an empire in terms of land and not people? Well, when you're studying history, there are inevitably going to be both words and maps. I'll leave aside the amount of bias that can hide in words for a moment and focus on maps. Maps are lines, colors, and words on a representation of some projection of the earth. So, let's say you're writing a history of the expansion of Rome's empire, and you want to show the changes in modern day Western Europe. Do you choose to show the Roman political subdivisions applied there after the conquest? The names given to that region by the people living there at the time? The names of the peoples? Do you use the names the Romans used, or make an attempt to use the names they used for themselves? Well, virtually none of the pre-Roman inhabitants of those lands had written languages that we know of, and certainly not ones that survived in a comprehensible form to today.

Having lost access to the native demonym, you face the final choice. You either label the land "Gaul" for the land or "Gauls" for the people. I live and was entirely educated in the USA, and most of the maps I learned from (across all of history) made the choice like this: Before conquest, put the current vernacular name for the indigenous people on the vague area where they lived, usually not attempting to include drawn borders. Use the names of the political subdivision once the region is colonized.

That's where I stopped. It was no longer interesting to try to trace imperial titles from the beginning of history until today because it would be too fuzzy to give the punchline I wanted or even an interesting set of possible solutions. I did learn something from the project though, and that's a new definition of "empire" for myself. Empire is what happens when you replace people with land.

Empires draw lines on maps.

The indigenous peoples of the Hapi Valley were not Egytians or Nubians but rather Kemetyu and Nehesu, written in the Medu Neter as, 𓆎𓅓𓏏𓊖 and 𓅘𓎛𓋴 𓅫𓀎. They were sister civilizations with common culture and lineage in north east Africa. These ancient neolithic populations first migrated from the source of the Hapi which is in what European scholars love to call “Sub Sahran” Africa. It should be noted that this is a modern concept which these ancient populations did not adhere to.

The Source of the Blue Hapi being Lake Tana in Ethiopia and the White Hapi being Lake Victoria in Tanzania. Ta-Seti, Ta-Netjer and Ta-Meri evolved side by side, intermarried, traded, had alliances and conflicts. The Nation is Kemet, not Egypt and the region is Ta-Meri. In Medu Neter "Ta" means Land and Meri means Beloved (Beloved Land), and it was located in modern day Egypt and North Sudan. Ta-Netjer which is modern day Somalia and Northern Kenya translates to "Land of the Gods", Know as Punt of Puntland, indigenous known as Pwenet. Ta-Seti which is modern day Sudan translates to Land of the Bow, due to their world renowned Archers. They were masters of a style of archery known as "the double shot", which allowed them to fire two arrows almost simultaneously.

Narmer the first Pharaoh of Kemet was from Nehken which is modern day Aswan. He defeated the people of the Delta and Unified Upper and Lower Kemet. The people of Aswan today maintain their African identity as well as their dark Melanin.

Ta-Seti predates the unification of Ta-Meri known as Sema Tawy. Proof of this is the Qustul Burner which depicts Pharaonic iconography, a clear and concise artifact that proves Nwsts ruled in Ta-Seti in the Qustual and Naqada Regions around the same time if not before Menes came from the South and conquered the peoples who dwelled in the wet marshlands of the Delta. Menes came from the Nekhen, modern day Aswan, but his ancestors came from further south, down the Hapi river. He wore the white crown of Upper Kemet before the nation of Kemet was established, the same white crown depicted on the Qustul Incense Burner. These 3 civilizations, Ta-Meri, Ta-Seti, and Ta-Netjer comprised the Hapi Valley civilization.

The most clear-cut evidence of the origins of predynastic Kemetic culture is the 5,600 year old Black Mummy of the Green Sahara and the 9,000 year old Nabta Playa Stone Circle. This Black mummies remains was identified to belong to the A-Group, same as the cemeteries found in Qustual and Naqada. Also found was the earliest signs of cattle iconography and the worship or Het-Heru known later as Hathor, the Lady of Punt, or Pwenet. The Nabta Playa Stone Circle is one of the oldest astrological sites in the world. Adams Calendar which is located in South Africa being the oldest. At these sites they studied the procession of the equinox for thousands of years which allowed them to predict the monsoon seasons to grow their crops. Nabta Playa is also the site where humans first developed geometry and the concept of Pi. Around 3,400 BC drastic weather changes turned these luch tropical regions to desert and this is when these ancient Africans packed up and migrated northward following the flow of the Hapi river all the way to the Delta. These are the origins of Kemetic culture and science and the rest is history.

hey, want some perspective about this? here's some temporal context to give you perspective, like that one xkcd about clouds and depth perception (sorry for no inline links, tumblr says no today)

okay so like, king arthur was fanfic about the transition from celtic england to anglo saxon england

(which was for hilarious reasons, it happened when the romans got kicked out, then the started having trouble with scottish invaders and went "hey, romans or anyone with a strong military, come here and help this weak, wealthy country!" - the romans said no obviously, then angles and saxons from current day netherlands and germany did that and just, stuck around, tried to take over, failed, didn't leave because they lived here now, then the celtic kingdoms mysteriously collapsed)

some ballpark numbers: this transition was around the year 500 ce, and king arthur was invented around 300 years later then popularised by wales around 300 years after that

300 years is longer ago from today than the invention of the united states, and 600 years is longer ago from today than that bastard columbus, so i guess this is comparable to… whatever the heck that one musical about america's called, was it hamilton?

anyway so there's apparently a place in cornwall known as 'king arthur's hall' (because who can resist a bit of folklore) - we don't know what it was (might've been a reservoir?) but nowaday's it's a megalithic structure of 56 raised stones, nearly a thousand square metres or over 10,000 square feet in area (a tenth of a hectare, a quarter of an acre), and there were at least 140 more stones that are now buried

i can't tell you any local folklore about it, can't find any, but i can try to put in context that it's actually from around 3500-3000 bce for you!

around 3500 bce, the wheel was just catching on outside mesopotamia, ancient egyptian civilisation was gonna form in a few centuries, the sahara desert was born, the zoo was invented, sumerians invented the first known writing (cuneiform), the earliest monument of the hill of tara was constructed in ireland, watson brake began construction in north america, the valdivia culture began in south america, the oldest known board game (senet) was invented, the sumerian white temple was built on the earliest ziggurat (and thus earliest pyramid), and tin was discovered

proto-indo-european culture had already been around for 500 years though, so a lot of early forms of things like the ancient greek creation story and zeus are already old enough for their origins to be forgotten, and this time period was towards the end of the agricultural revolution wherever in the world you look

similarly, people had lived around the nile for 400 years (because of the whole sahara thing), and the city of uruk had been around for 1500 years (and associated with the goddess inanna / ishtar for 500, and would last for another 4000 years What The Heck)

horses had been domesticated for 500 years, and sea levels in australia had been stable allowing complex coastal civilisation for 1,000 years

by 3000 bce, the uruk vase depicting ishtar has been created, a pharaoh (narmer, menes, or maybe hor-aha) has unified upper and lower egypt, north africa is doing agriculture (europe is gonna be a pretty sad place for a few more millenia yet), camels have been domesticated, work started on stonehenge, the aegean (greek) bronze age started, the oldest known tree had sprouted (prometheus, born around this time or earlier, died 1964, oldest non-clonal organism ever found), mesoamerican villages started being settled, the original shekel coinage and weight unit (~11g, 1/3 oz) was invented in mesopotamia, the sydney rock engravings were crafted

the nazca lines wouldn't be invented for another 2,500 years, the ancient egyptian pyramids for 300, the uffington white horse for 1,500, the torres strait islanders in australia wouldn't settle for 1,000, the dingo wouldn't be introduced to australia for 1,000 (unless they'd already been around for 8,000 years, unclear!), the famous (to some people) bronze age stuff like the invasion of the sea peoples wouldn't happen for… well, that in particular was 1,800 years, but other events would've been at other times

time is a heck

oh and here's that xkcd

The legend of King Arthur predates thinking
