Amenhotep IV (Akhenathen) Daughter

Female torso Nefertiti wife of Pharaoh Amenophis IV

quote:
Extract from the Prophecy of Neferti:

Then a king will come from the South,

Ameny, the justified, by name
Son of a woman of Ta-Seti, child of Upper Egypt.

He will take the white crown,
He will wear the red crown;
He will join the Two Mighty Ones..
Rejoice, O people of his time,
The son of man will make his name for all eternity! ..

Asiatics will fall to his sword,
Libyans will fall to his flame,
Rebels to his wrath, traitors to his might,
As the serpent on his brow subdues the rebels for him.

One will build the Walls-of-the-Ruler
To bar Asiatics from entering Egypt

Elaborate gold coronation pectoral ornament with band from the tomb of King Tutankhamun 18th Dyn

Elaborate gold coronation pectoral ornament from the tomb of King Tutankhamun, found inside one of the boxes in the treasury room. The central figure is the king himself with the khepresh crown and the crook and the flail in his hands. Ptah is facing the king and behind Ptah is Heh and above him a cobra together forming a cryptographic writing of Tutankhamun's throne name. Behind the king sits Sekhmet, goddess of war. The wide bands consist of cartouches and hieroglyphic symbols and the counterpoise shows the king with the war helmet and a winged figure of Ma'at holds out an ankh to him.

Waay to go Amen

She was associated with the lower cataracts (near Aswan) and probably originated in Nubia or Sudan. Specifically, she was associated with Setet Island (Sehel island) and Abu (Elephantine) 1st nome of Upper Egypt, and was goddess of everything south of the Egyptian border. She was widely worshipped in Nubia, and given the title "Mistress of Nubia". In southern Nubia, Khnum merged with the ram-headed Amun, so Anuket and Satet (Satis) in some places also appear as wives of Amun.

One of the Goddess of Ta-Seti aka the 1st nome,see that's why I asked you to label them for futher reference whenever possible [Smile]

I already posted many from the Old Kingdom and a few pre-dynastic era but they are rarer in the world of Ancient Kemet history (Egyptology) in general. We must take into account the numerous dynasties that followed them, including themselves or foreign occupations like the Hyksos, Libyans, Asians, Persians, Assyrians, Romans, Greeks, Persians, Muslim Arabs, British, individual grave-robbers and modern archeologists who were often keen to destroy, rob, modify past history to fit their own or out of frustration. For example, the Assyrians destroyed many 25th Dynasty (their enemy) or earlier artifacts during the occupation of Ancient Egypt as they did elsewhere in western Asia when they conquered people. It was a way for them to assert their power. Considering the time period very far in the past, we can consider ourselves lucky to have so many vestiges of this great past.

Colossal granite head of Amenhotep III

Originally 18th Dynasty

Taken over and recut by a later king (re-cutting phenomena in Ancient Kemet)

Royal statues in Egypt were sometimes usurped (taken over) by later rulers. The normal procedure was simply to re-carve their name over the old one, but in some cases the physical features were also altered. Ramesses II (1279-1213 BC) seems to have altered a number of statues of Amenhotep III in this way, presumably because he wished to represent his ideal image in a certain form. In this statue, Ramesses seems to have concentrated on changing the characteristic thick lips of the older statuary to thinner ones. In other cases he took to reducing the plump stomach areas of Amenhotep's statues to make them closer to his ideal of the physical shape of the king.

The statue wears the double crown of Upper and Lower Egypt. (Text from British Museum)

Head from a statuette of Nekhebu, King's Architect, Old Kingdom, Dynasty 6 under Pepy I

Here's a translation of the Biographical inscription on his tomb relief (both parts in the Boston and Cairo museum). Shown earlier in this thread. They can't be compared to Sebayt or the Negative confessions but offer some insight about Nekhebu and his time (6th Dynasty):

quote:
BOSTON RELIEF TRANSLATION:

(1) The Sole Companion, King's Architect, Merptahankhmeryre; he says: I am a workman of Meryre my lord. His Majesty sent me [to direct all the works of the king ?] (and) I [acted]
to the satisfaction of His Majesty in Lower and Upper Egypt.

His majesty sent me to direct the construction of the Ka-mansions of His Majesty in Lower
Egypt, and (to direct) the Administration; at the north in the 'City of Lakes' (and) in Akhbit-of-Horus; at the south in the pyramid (called) Menneferpepy. I came thence, it (the work) being
finished. I [erected?] the Ka-mansions there, built and faced (?), the woodwork thereofa having
been placed (in position), having been cut in Lower Egypt. I returned, it having been completed
through my agency. His Majesty praised me for it in the presence of the [officials]. His Majesty gave me gold-amulets (??), bread, and beer in very great quantity. His Majesty caused
to go forth to me a company of the Residence bearing it, until they reached my gate bearing it
(the present); because I was so much more excellent in his esteem" than any other king's architect
whom His Majesty had sent before (?) on (= with regard to) the administration of the
royal domain.

His Majesty sent me to lay out (?) the canal of Akhbit-of-Horus, and dig it. I dug
it...... until I came to the Residence when it (the canal) was (already) under water. His Majesty
praLsed me for it; His Majesty gave me gold-amulets (??), bread, and beer. Grent was His Majesty s
praise of me because of that concerning which His Majesty had sent me, as one successfuJ (?)
with regard to everything that was done in every work concerning which His Majesty had sent
me.

His Majesty sent me to [kus?] to dig the canal of his . . . . of Hathor-in-[ku?]. I acted and I dug it [so that] His Majesty praised me for it. When I went to the Residence His Majesty praised
me for it very greatly, and His Majesty gave me gold-amulets (??), bread, and beer.

CAIRO RELIEF TRANSLATION:

[The Sole Companion, King's Architect, Merptaliankhmeryre; he says: [I am a workman
of' Mer[ro], my lord.

His Majesty sent me to direct the work of his (pyramid)-monument2 in Heliopolis, and I acted
to the satisfaction of' His Majesty. I passed 6 years there in directing the work. His Majesty
praised me as often as I cane to the Residence because of it; everything came about [through my
agency] because of the vigilance that I exercised;.....[his].... there, in accordance
- with what T know myself.

His Majesty had found me common builder; and His Majesty conferred on me (the offices of)
Inspector of Builders. (then) Overseer of Builders, and Superintendent of a Guild. And his
Majesty conferred on me (the offices of) King's Architect and Builder, (then) Royal Architect and
Builder under the King's Supervision (?). And His Majesty conferred on me (the offices of) Sole
Companion, King's Architect and Builder in the Two Houses. His Majesty did all this because His
Majesty favoured me so much.

(4) I am beloved of my father, praised of my mother. I did [not] give them occasion to punish
me until (i.e. up to the time when) they passed to their tomb of the necropolis; and I am one
praised of his brothers. Now I was in the service of my brother, the Overseer of Works.....
I used to do the writing, I used to carry his palette (?). When he was appointed
Inspector of Builders, I used to carry his measuring-rod (?). When he was appointed Overseer
of Builders, I used to be his companion (?). When he was appointed King's Architect and Builder I used to rule the city for him, and did everything in it excellently. When he was appointed Sole
Companion, King's Architect and Builder in the Two Houses, I used to take charge of all his
possessions for him, and the property was greater (or increased more?) in his house than (in) the
house of any noble. When he was appointed Overseer of Works, I used to represent him in
everything about which he spoke, to his satisfaction concerning it. Moreover, I took charge of
things for him in his estate for the period of 20 years. Never did I beat any man there so that he
fell through my action. Never did I enslave any people there: as to all people there with
whom I used to negotiate there, it was I who used to pacify them. Never did I go to rest for
the night there angry with any people. It was I who used to give clothing, bread, and beer to
every naked man and hungry man there.

I am beloved of all men: never did I say anything evil to the king (or) to a high authority
against any man. I am one praised by his father, his mother, and his masters in the necropolis for making funerary-offerings for them and making their festivalS on the Wg-Feast the Feast
of Socharis, the First-of-the-Year-Feast, the Feast of Thoth, the Opening-of-the-Year-Feast, the
first day of the month. the last day of the month, and on every good feast which is celebrated at
every season of the year.

O ka-servants of the honoured (dead): do ye desire that the king shall favour you, and that
ye shall be in honour with your lords and fathers in the necropolis? (Then) ye shall make funerary offerings of bread and beer, as I have doue for your fathers. Since ye will desire that I intercede
for (?) you in the necropolis, (then) tell ye to your children. on the day when I shalt have passed away,' the words of making the offering-formula for me: (for) I am an excellent spirit, and I know
everything through which I may become a spirit(?) in the Necropolis.

O ye living ones who are upon earth, and who shall pass by this tomb: if ye desire that the
king favour you, and that ye shall be in honour with the Great God, ye shall not come into
this tomb in hostility (?), (or) having....... because of (?) your impurity (?). As for any man
who shall enter therein in hostility (?) in spite of this (that T have said), I will be judged with him
by the Great God; I will destroy their surviving relatives and their dwellings upon earth.

Oye living who are upon earth, and who shall pass by this tomb: do ye desire (11) that the
king shall favour you, and that ye shall be in honour with the Great God? (then) say: may the
honoured Nekhebu have a thousand of bread, a thousand of beer. Ye shall not destroy anything
in this tomb, (for) T am a glorified soul ' (and) equipped. As for any man who shall
destroy anything in this tomb, I will be judged with them (sic) by the Great God.

I am one who spoke what is good and repeated what is good; never did I say anything evil
against any people.

----------------
Other title held by Nekhebu:
Overseer of Royal Commissions of the Pyramid Menneferpepy (perhaps acquired in connexion
with the mission referred to in Boston text. line 3).
[Master of Secrets] of the Two wbt-Chambers.
Elder of the nwt-House.
Director of Every Kilt.
Door-keeper of (the god) Dwìu.

Maybe those made with small beads, but don't remember seeing any of the top image type as Ancient Kemites artifacts even if it looks more like the Medu Neter carving.

Actually the glyph shows a man's face sporting a BEARD on his chin not bangles around his neck.

This portrait is either of the goddess Anuket or a Kushite Queen who, if the latter, I've never seen wear such a crown. The goddess Anuket is the matron of Semna in the first cataract and a Nile goddess. Her headdress is believed by many scholars to be of Nubian origin.

You're right, it is one of those fake beard (false ceremonial beard).

The facing medu neter head of the temple Ipet isut look very realistic .They look like Mande people from Mali .

More hieroglyphs for a man's face as first posted by Amun Ra.

Interesting how the face displays wides nostrils and full lips that are very "negroid" and unlike the ideal 'cacasoid' appearance of Euronuts. Whatever.

Posted by Truthcentric (Member # 3735) on :

^ Considering that those hieroglyphs probably represent what the Egyptians considered "average" for their population better than individuals' portraits, I'm surprised people don't cite them more often in race debates.

I added descriptions.

As said in the other thread those are Medu Neter (Hieroglyph in Ancient Greek) "alphabet" symbols. They are the Ideogram for the word Hr “face.” Phonogram Hr.

That is the problem with "eyeball anthropology". LOL!! Some of the dumber ones don't read. They rely on pictures alone. . .
