Ok, due to the fact that nobody picked a person i took it upon my own hands to pick a queen that we all know and is simple yet fun and higly informative to do. We are doing Neferitti. Heres a link that EVERYONE needs to read to get stared. []. Hopefully you all will read this this weekend and will get started on YOUR half of the project. Please work hard and dont slack off, we can do this!!! Also remember we need to look for images for the cercoughfagus of Neferitti BUT THIS ISNT THE ONLY THING WERE DOING!!! So get crackalacking people!!

=http://i42.tinypic.com/69mc7t.jpg = =Taylor- look up the diety and what would've been written. Alex - pick three symbols AND define Group - pyramid game, and help with diety. Chris- motto (in english), then translate. =

 During the Amarna period, the ankh sign was depicted being offered to Akhenaten and Nefertiti by the hands at the end of the rays descending from the sun disk, Aten.

Symbols: Ankh ^ everlasting life sun disk (Aten) ^ primary element of life Flail and Crook ^ the emblems of osiris

**AZALEA**: Love, romance, first love, fragile passion, temperance. It is also the Chinese symbol of womanhood. []
 * LOTUS BLOSSOM**: Represents the Nile and estranged love
 * ORCHID**: Rare beauty, love, refinement, beautiful lady, Chinese symbol for many children, mature charm, beauty, long life. Associated with twenty-eighth wedding anniversary. Heres a website with great information for the eugoly [] (which we will be starting tomorrow!!) I have created a rough sketch of my diety and will show that to all of you tomorrow as well. We need to think of three objects that Neferitti needs to bring into the afterlife with her to show osiris. One that i think right of the bat is aten but other then that there really isnt much i can think of.... Here is Nefertitis name we can put on the sketch tmrw!

Pic is good but full screen... not so much [] []

nefertiti in hyrogliphs is the following...

 Alex & Taylor  : Let the gods have sympathy on our hearts during this grief-stricken occurrence. I am regrettably here today to eulogize Mutnodjmet. Even thought she wasn’t royalty, Mutnodjme had royal ties. Mutnodjmet was Nefertiti’s half sister. Mutnodjmet was also the wife of Horemehb. She was born in around 1373 BC. Mutnodjmet is the daughter of former King Ay and the Great Granddaughter of former King Yuya.Mutnodjmet was alive during the period in our Egyptian history between 16th century BC and the up and coming 11th century BC. This is also known as the New Kingdom.During her sister’s reign as queen, Mutnodjmet helped lead a major trade movement in Egypt using the Nile. By creating boats made of a papyrus, she and crew of men traded with many countries through the Mediterranean Sea and the Upper Nile River. This caused great movement between countries along the Mediterranean Seas coastline. Some things she enjoyed trading were minerals, leopard skins, and much more. We Egyptians still do rely heavily on the Nile River. The Nile River is over 4,000 miles long. It was good for our irrigation of crops, & food. Speaking of food, I would like to thank Neferatiatian and her husband Arkanasken III for helping us grow crops for the procession during the off season while building our new Valley of the Kings and Queens. Nevertheless, the country was also rich in minerals. There were minerals like Nartron, a salt used in our mummification process that is currently being mined. Thanks to Mutnodjmet and her map work, miners are able to travel safely in and out of underground tunnels to grasp the salt. Mutnodjmet also supported and influenced her sister in during her religious revolution. Polytheism, as you know is the belief of more than one god, or many gods. Henotheism is the belief in one god, but not denying that there are other gods present. Monotheistic is the belief of one god only. Due to the revelation, both Nefertiti and her husband agreed that they should also change the main god from Amon-Re to Aten, the sun god. Let us now reminisce the breathtaking period we had with Mutnodjmet by comprehending and enlightening her sarcophagus. As you may notice on the torso area of the sarcophagus there is an Ankh that represents everlasting life and a Flail and Crook which emblems the power of Osiris and the power you have as human being. Around her waist is the sun god Aten. Aten is not only her favorite god but the god that Nefertiti made an major idol. Finally at her feet is a new unknown deity. From the symbols that seem to be represented on the sarcophagus wee came up with a clear definition. The flower seems to be a Lotus flower. Here the Louts flower represents the Nile due to its shape. The Ankh as we all know shows everlasting life, so if we put them together it means “Forever lives the Nile!” Some say that Mutnodjmet was only known for being Nefertiti’s sister, but personally I think that Mutnodjmet was one of the best inspirational leaders in Ancient Egypt. May Anubis find her heart worthy so she may live an everlasting life with her ancestors and processors. May Aten bless you all as you continue on in mortality …

nasty contained some of Egypt's most famous [|Pharaohs] including [|Ahmose I], [|Hatshepsut], [|Thutmose III], [|Amenhotep III], [|Akhenaten] and [|Tutankhamun]. [|Queen] Hatsheput concentrated on expanding Egypt's [|external trade], sending a commercial expedition to the [|land of Punt]. Thutmose III ("the [|Napoleon] of Egypt") expanded Egypt's army and wielded it with great success to consolidate the [|empire] created by his predecessors. This resulted in a peak in Egypt's power and wealth during the reign of Amenhotep III.

New copy By Tnhamitlon:

Let the gods have sympathy on our hearts during this grief-stricken occurrence. I am regrettably here today to eulogize Nefertiti II. Even thought she wasn’t royalty, Nefertiti II had royal ties. Nefertiti II was Nefertiti’s half sister. Nefertiti II was also the wife of Horemehb. She was born in around 1373 BCE. Nefertiti II is the daughter of former King Ay and the Great Granddaughter of former King Yuya. Nefertiti II was alive during the period in [|our Egyptian]  history between 16th century BC and the up and coming  [|11th century BC]. This is also known as the New Kingdom. During her sister’s reign as queen, Mutnodjmet helped lead a major trade movement in Egypt using the Nile. By creating boats made of a papyrus, she and crew of men traded with many countries through the Mediterranean Sea and the Upper Nile River which included Spain, France, Monaco, Italy, Malta, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Albania, Greece, Turkey, Cyprus, Syria, Lebanon, Israel, Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Algeria and Morocco. This caused a great movement of trade between countries along the Mediterranean Seas coastline, all thanks to the Nile. Some things she enjoyed trading were gems like turquoise, leopard skins, and much more. In return, Nefertiti sometime received treasures like Giraffe Tails, Monkeys, Cattle, Ivory, Ebony, Ostrich Feathers and Eggs, and finally Gold. We Egyptians still do rely heavily on the Nile River. The Nile River is over 4,000 miles long. It was good for our irrigation of crops, and food. Speaking of food, I would like to thank Neferatiatian and her husband Arkanasken III for helping us grow crops for the procession during the off season while building our new Valley of the Kings and Queens. Instead of putting our decised in pyramids that took so long to build, we put them inside the walls of a dried up river basin. Nevertheless, the country was also rich in minerals. There were minerals like Nartron, a salt used in our mummification process that is currently being mined. Thanks to Nefertiti II and her map work, miners are able to travel safely in and out of underground tunnels to grasp the salt. But the Salt wasn’t the only thing that was avabile in Eygpt, Limestone, Sandstone, Agate, amazonite, carnelian and other translucent or grayish semiprecious stones were common. They were involved in the making of gem ornaments, and Scarabs. Garnet, Jasper, Lapis, Rock Crystal, Milky Quartz, and once again, turquoise was used as well. Nefertiti II also supported and influenced her sister in during her religious revolution. Polytheism, as you know is the belief of more than one god, or many gods. Henotheism is the belief in one god, but not denying that there are other gods present. Monotheistic is the belief of one god only. Due to the revelation, both Nefertiti and her husband agreed that they should also change the main god from Amon-Re to Aten, the sun god. This caused some problems with citizens so the some political and military force was needed. In previous years, our milltary was needed for defending Egypt against foreign invasion, and for maintaining Egypt's domination over other countries. Basic military gear included bows and arrows, spears, and round-topped shields made by stretching animal skin over wooden frames. In the New Kingdom, our Egyptian military began using chariots. Weapons and armor continued to strengthen after the grasp of bronze: shields were now made from solid wood with a bronze buckle; spears were tipped with a bronze point. Soldiers were recruited from parts of Egypt, but during, and after, the New Kingdom, mercenaries from Nubia and Libya were hired to fight for Egypt instead of important officials and the Pharaohs themselves. Our Egyptian social status was very much displayed. Scribes (also know as writers) and officials formed the upper class in ancient Egypt. The upper class displayed their social status in art and literature. Normally, the Upper Class was highly educated and this is why they were able to display such works. Below the Upper Class nobles were the priests, physicians, and engineers. Artists and craftsmen next in the status chain, but they were also under state control, working in the shops attached to the temples and paid directly from the state treasury. Farmers were the lowest in the Social Structure but they made up most of the Egyptian population. Agricultural produce was owned directly by the state, temple, or noble family that owned the land it was grown on. Farmers were also subject to a labor tax and were required to work on irrigation or construction projects that took place during the flooding of the Nile. Slavery was highly known in ancient Egypt but nobody knows to what extent. Even thought there are different social classes, the we Egyptians viewed men and women, including people from all social classes except slaves, as essentially equal under the law. Let us now reminisce the breathtaking period we had with Nefertit II by comprehending and enlightening her sarcophagus. As you may notice on the torso area of the sarcophagus there is an Ankh that represents everlasting life and a Flail and Crook which emblems the power of Osiris and the power you have as human being. Around her waist is the sun god Aten. Aten is not only her favorite god but the god that Nefertiti made a major idol. Finally at her feet is a new unknown deity. Our scribes came up with a clear definition. The flower seems to be a Lotus flower. Here the Louts flower represents the Nile due to its shape. The Ankh as we all know shows everlasting life, so if we put them together it means “Forever lives the Nile!” Some say that Nefertiti II was only known for being Nefertiti’s sister, but personally I think that Nefertiti II was one of the best inspirational leaders in Ancient Egypt. May Anubis find her heart worthy so she may live an everlasting life with her ancestors and processors. May Aten bless you all as you continue on in mortality …
