Ancient Egypt High‑importance

High

This article has been rated as High-importance on the project's importance scale.

WikiProject Ancient Egypt to-do list:

Needed articles.

We should have an article on every pyramid and every nome in Ancient Egypt. I'm sure the rest of us can think of other articles we should have.

Cleanup.

To start with, most of the general history articles badly need attention. And I'm told that at least some of the dynasty articles need work. Any other candidates?

Standardize the Chronology.

A boring task, but the benefit of doing it is that you can set the dates !(e.g., why say Khufu lived 2589-2566? As long as you keep the length of his reign correct, or cite a respected source, you can date it 2590-2567 or 2585-2563)

Stub sorting

Anyone? I consider this probably the most unimportant of tasks on Wikipedia, but if you believe it needs to be done . . .

Data sorting.

This is a project I'd like to take on some day, & could be applied to more of Wikipedia than just Ancient Egypt. Take one of the standard authorities of history or culture -- Herotodus, the Elder Pliny, the writings of Breasted or Kenneth Kitchen, & see if you can't smoothly merge quotations or information into relevant articles. Probably a good exercise for someone who owns one of those impressive texts, yet can't get access to a research library.

Untitled

Removed text: This temple was Seti's idea, on which he worked for a long time but could not end, nor could Rameses II.

Reason: Seti I was after Hatshepsut who also contributed to Karnak SKL

"Search for Omm Sety" This is a great book about a British woman born in the early 1900's who believed that she was a reincarnated Egyptian woman who lived during the reign of Sety I. Though most of the book follows her life she lives in Abydos and studies Egyptology, making many contributions thanks to her "special" knowledge of the time and the king Sety himself, whom she believed she had a romantic relationship with. The book is definitely worth the read if you are interested in this time period.

pop culture

Isn't Seti I identified as Pharaoh of Egypt during the enslavement of the Hebrews in the Ten Commandments movie(with Heston)? I believe he is also the 1999 movie "The Mummy" briefly. I think this pop culture references deserve a mention. Kerowyn 12:29, 15 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Co Regency with Rameses

I find it funny that people question it happened, a Co-Regencey is the only way Ramses could have reigned over 60 years as claimed, since he was only in his 60s when he died as his Mummy shows. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.144.34.210 (talk) 06:32, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This isn't a forum where we all express our own opinions on the general subject, but if you find a RS expressing those same views that you hold, then it might mean something quotable. Til Eulenspiegel /talk/ 12:19, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of Relationships

This article says that Seti I was the son of Ramesses I, but the article on Ramesses I says that Seti I was Ramesses I's son. Which is it? DreamersRose (talk) 21:33, 11 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

DreamersRose, I don't understand your question. The way you put it the articles agree. Dougweller (talk) 13:21, 12 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Clarity on damnatio memoriae

It needs clarifying that damnatio memoriae was only organised against Tutankhamun regarding monuments and scriptures that bore the name of Tutankhaten only and not Tutankhamun. There is no sourcing or references to this? Why not? Information such as that needs to be backed up as per wiki rules. Ts4221 (talk) 16:14, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
