Eulogy

Dearly Beloved, the sarcophagus you see in front of you is for our pharaoh Ghufu. Although his birthdate is unknown we know he was alive from 2609 B.C. to 2584 B.C. Besides the facts that he had the Great Pyramid at Giza built, Ghufu was just your average pharaoh. He was the 2nd pharaoh in the 4th dynasty which was considered the golden age of the Old Kingdom. The Old Kingdom all started when King Menes united the Upper and Lower Egypt. Politics were very stable in the Old Kingdom Ghufu had power and he decided to use it wisely. Government was controlled and the pharaoh was the most important in the kingdom. The royal authority started to weaken as the Old Kingdom went on and viziers and government officials started to get more power. We believe that our pharaoh was a king and a god, his words were the law. Since all pharaohs die eventually, we believe that the pharaoh and other people with him will go to a place called the afterlife where they could continue living forever. The Old Kingdom was pretty much the start of all things in Egypt. Ghufu respected all in the social structure and was a good man. Sadly, we only have a small statue of himself that only measured 7.5 centimeters since his tomb was raided. Ghufu has lived a full life; he became pharaoh in his twenties, married three times, and had many children. His father Sneferu the previous pharaoh would be very proud of his son. Thankfully the successor of Ghufu will be Djedefre. We thank you all today for celebrating Ghufus life and his 63 years of reign.
