[QUOTE]Originally posted by alTakruri: [QB] Antiu is a non-specific ethnonym applicable to people in the highlands or hill country east of the Nile Valley whether in the Sinai, the Eastern Desert, or the Nubian Desert. Medjay were Antiu but were all Antiu Medjay? Medjay were employed by TaShemau in the wars against the Hyksos whereas other records make Antiu Seti out as enemies of TaShemaw. Aahmes, a naval officer, served Ahmose I, Amenophis I, and Tuthmosis I, all the first kings of the 18th dynasty. Under Ahmose captain Aahmes [QUOTE] sailed up the river to [b]Khenthennefer[/b] to crush the [b][i]Antiu of Sti[/i][/b], [/QUOTE]In Amenophis' southern campaign Aahmes [QUOTE] sailed up the river to Kash to extend towards the south the frontiers of Egypt. His Majesty captured that accursed [b]Anti of Nubia[/b] in the midst of his accursed bowmen; [/QUOTE]For Tuthmosis he again [QUOTE] sailed up the river to Khent-hen-nefer, to put down the rebellion in Khet land, and to put an end to the incursions of the people of Asemt.

And that accursed [b][i]Anti of Nubia[/i][/b] was hung up head downwards, at the prow of the boat of His Majesty, [/QUOTE]Unlike those Medjay Antiu in the TaShemau army these "Sti" Antiu were the ones Kamose complained about when contemplating the three way power split Kmty government between himelf, Kesh, and the Hyksos.
