Sunny's+Egypt

okay.I choose Neferkhamen
but just wondering, what do you want the backround to be, like we could make it dark, and have flashlights in papers like you all said. oh yeah, if there is no one who can make the spear, i'll try making it. One more thing, who is going to read the Eulogy, and are we just wearing the same clothes we ould normally wear.

um...1st of all, what do u mean by putting a name for the pharoh, because i thought we were donig Mentuhotep.
also, for the row things, even though i would like the idea, this is egypt, so I suggest we have people crowding around the sarcophugus, unless someone has a better idea. and last of all, we should have like, we are gather here to (blah blah blah), and they pretend to pray. then we continue the eulogy with me acting like I'm proud of this ruler and that even he had accomplish great things while being ruler, and then the last thing we can do is to pray for him one more time. p.s. Sunny, are you gonig to revise the eulogy or is it revised. And second of all, what do u mean by the pharoh's name having to be Neferkhamen, or sihankhaten ? **//~Henry//**

Should we have some effects or something like (silence) or like people are sitting around the mummy or people are in rows ,we could make 3rows of four including ms hentz discluding us 3 ---Sunny

 * Neferkhamen II was a great pharaoh. He was the only son of the magnificent king, Intef III. He ruled for 51 years and helped his country with all his power. His rule in the city of Thebes was great. Neferkhamen was a good pharaoh who followed the rights of his people. His name meant that war god, Montu was content. Tem and his sister, Neferu were his wives. He helped regain his country after the Hyksos took over the kingdom. He was the one who united the country after it was taken over by the Hyksos. Neferkhamen I also was the first one took a trade with another country beyond the Nile valley, which was Nubia. This was how our country became very rich. He was an excellent military leader leading the wars against the Ancient Egypt's capital and Palestine. Neferkhamen II kept our country in a good shape. He constructed new buildings and improved our old irrigation systems. He made new and strong weapons out of stone and copper and these helped us drive back the Hyksos out of our country. He first talked about the highest gods such as Amon-Re, Mont, and Horus. He made new temples for the gods which were large and grand. He also made a magnificent temple for himself. Now, we are a richer country and a more prosperous country. We have a good army with strong weapons and trained soldiers. He made new buildings and irrigations systems and many temples to worship at. Neferkhamen II is a great king and he will be remembered for the next centuries for the many gracious things he did. He will be** **buried in his tomb at the High Cliff at dawn.**

Is this good enough??

SUNNY

yeah, I think this is good enough because Mentuhotep II was the 1st ruler in middle kingdom, and it describes his leadership role. for the deity, we could use a picture of a lion because it represents courage, intelligence, wisdom, and the power to restore what's right and wrong. for the moto: In the universe, there are a need of changes and the power to restore things either rights or wrongs from weapons, to religion. (if there is something you may want to tweek, go right on ahead. thank you!) Mentuhotep was the son of Antef III. He was known for truly uniting Upper and Lower Egypt. He also had his military strength. When he had to go to war to unite Upper and Lower Egypt, he did not waste any time accomplishing this. He help establish and improve his buildings in his territory. He usually spend more time fixing up the place in Upper Egypt. he also worshipped the war-god, Montu. Mentuhotep II also wanted to improve trade by reigning over Nubia. This shows what Mentuhotep II was al about, from social structures, to political, to econmics. We will remember this brave, wise king who had saved us from falling into despair when Upper and Lower egypt had begun to separate again. ~Henry
 * Euology**

The first ruler of the Middle Kingdom, he is also know as Nebhetepre. Pharaoh Mentuhotep II ruled Egypt for about 51 years. During his life he adopted three different names. The first was 'He who gives heart to the Two Lands' which was followed by 'Lord of the White Crown.' This undoubtedly marks the transition from being the regional ruler to being the ruler of Upper Egypt. Some time later he became known as the 'Uniter of the Two Lands. This obviously marks the point at which Mentuhotep reunited all of Egypt. Upon defeating [|Hierakonpolis] rulers and reuniting Egypt, peace and prosperity settled over Egypt. This marked the beginning of the Middle Kingdom with Mentuhotep being the first Pharaoh, establishing his capital city in Thebes He adopted the War god Mentu as the National god Mentuhotep began several building projects at different sites. Of the works that were built none is marveled more than the mortuary complex at Deir El Bahri, this temple was later incorporated into [|Hatshepsut Deir El Bahri temple] He fought against the Libyans in the Delta and the Asiatic in the Sinia. He built his mortuary complex at Deir el Bahri where he and his wives and members of his court were buried. The sarcophagi contained important information about the Egyptian language at the close of the First Intermediate Period. Also discovered at Deir el Bahri were the bodies of 60 soldiers, all having died of battle wounds. They wore shrouds marked with cartouches and seals of Nebhetepre. I copied and pasted it so we will have to put it in our own words and add more and you can change it if you want to. ~ Umit
