The Nubian culture
Situated between Sudan and South Egypt
Far more advanced than thought
And the seat of Egyptian culture
Meroe being the capital of the Old Kingdom of Kush.
The Meroe pyramids along the Nile in Sudan are World Heritage
Far more important and numerous than the Egyptian ones
Amenotheph = Amenophis in Greek
Amenothep IV was a great pharaoh of the 18th dynasty
Amenothep
Of Nubian origin
Had many diplomatic relations with his neighbours
And many of his written clay tablets
Have been found in Amarna
The capital of his reign
He brought spiritual and political change
And very soon he was in open opposition
with priest and casts of Old Egypt…
He was the first
to introduce monotheïsm
the faith in one God
Amarna, the city build by him
was completly destroyed after his deadth.
The ancients knew why the river Nile was sacred
Perhaps we need to rediscover the meaning of “sacred”

This was an interesting read written in an interesting style. I have always had an interest in Egypt, what with all the mysteries it holds and how little we really know about it. You’ve added to my pools of knowledge with this and it is appreciated 🙂 I think the Egyptians had a deep understanding of the meaning of “sacred”.
Nubia means gold…
