[QUOTE]Originally posted by Wally: [QB] (culled from April, 2005) It's funny how these Sunday School Bible Topics keep poppin up , but anyway... [QUOTE] The Asiatics; called the Amu, Seteyu, Hek Khasu (Manetho's Hyksos), came into Egypt as prisoners or as indentured servants because Egypt offered them opportunities. As their numbers increased they began to insinuate themselves into various positions of power. Ipuwer's complaints about the presence of the Red Ones in Egypt provides a cunning image of the changes taking place. The Red People, the coarse nomads, consolidated their gains and opened Egypt to more and more migrations from the Mediterranean region. [/QUOTE]--The Hek Khasu ( "foreign kings/rulers" nee Hyksos) never gained control of the entire country; only the Delta. --A list of the HekKhasu -can be found at the end of Budge's dictionary. Does everyone know which dynasty to start looking in? --The Hebrews role in history, because of the Bible, has been greatly exaggerated and/or overated... --- Oh yeah, also for the Biblically inclined: Pharaoh named Joseph, his friend, "Za-ef nath pa Aniah" which I read as "His son who becomes the Anu" and I interpret as Joseph being made an honorary or adopted Anu...even given an Anu lady to wed...
