[QUOTE]Originally posted by Just call me Jari: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by rahotep101: [qb] The priestood of Amon at Thebes were interested in preserving their quasi-regal automoy in the south. This made them natural rebels against the northern-based pharaohs and collaborators with the Nubians.[/qb][/QUOTE]This does not answer why Tuthmosis the 3rd and the Amun Cult of Thebes made Napata the home of the Ancient Form of Amun. This does not answer why Tuthmosis claimed that Amun of Napata, not Amun of Thebes, gave him the right to rule foreign lands. Hell you cant even answer why the New Kingdom pharoahs were coronated at Natapta over any where in Egypt. I laugh at your logic and racist attempts at ducking Napata and Nubia's essential role in Egypt thousands of years before the 25th Dynasty. [QUOTE]Originally posted by rahotep101: [qb]The Saite pharaohs apparently had to bring the Thebans into line and drive out the Nubians before they could restore Egyptian national unity and usher in the glorious late period. Obviously 25th dynasty Nubian propaganda would put a divine seal of approval on their conquest of Egypt. They may as well have called the invasion 'operation Egyptian freedom' as if that would fool anyone.[/qb][/QUOTE]It was not the Thebean House that caused Egyptian Chaos but the reckless spending and instability of the Ramssedese House which curiously was a Delta based House that was not of Royal Blood from Thebes. Another Curiosity is that the most Powerful Rulers and the Pharoahs who made Egypt the most powerful Empire were from the 18th Dynasty that originate from the likes of Ahmose, Seqenera Tao, and Amenhemhat. Notihing the Saited did compare to the Families that originated from the south. [QUOTE]Originally posted by rahotep101: [qb]The most highly populated part of Egypt was the Delta region, and Napata was about as far away from there to the south as Athens was to the north-west! [/qb][/QUOTE]Another laugh considering that despite the Population density of the North and even its proximity to Mesopotamia and Europe it was a Cultural Backwater that was conquered by the South who usher in the Culture of Egypt.
