Book excerpt: In modern-day Egypt, a young scholar finds a clue that leads to a pharaoh's tomb. The tomb is guarded by puzzles that look like the Sphinx and could change the course of history. To sum up: A young historian named Sami lived in an exciting, colorful part of Egypt that was full of both current sounds and the sounds of long-gone times. Sami was different from everyone else because he was crazy about historical secrets and couldn't get enough information. Sami found an interesting map hidden in a forgotten corner of an old, dirty library while he was walking around it. But this wasn't any old map. It held the answer to a long-lost puzzle that would lead to the tomb of a king whose name was only remembered in stories and myths from long ago. Sami set out on an adventure that was beyond his wildest dreams because he was excited and wanted to find new things. The path wouldn't be easy; mysterious riddles like the Sphinx would stand in the way, and each one would be a gatekeeper to the next part of his goal. The ancients made these puzzle-like questions to keep the pharaoh's tomb and its secrets safe. secrets that can change how we think about the past, bring back stories we've lost, and let out secrets we've kept for a long time. But Sami wasn't the only one looking for something. He met new people along the way who were just as interested in investigating the secrets that lay ahead as he was. They worked together to solve every problem, showing that they were brave and clever. They used clues to find their way, found hidden passages, and opened doors that had been locked in years. They were getting closer to finding the secrets buried with the king with each step they took to solve his puzzles. It wasn't just a quest to find a hidden tomb; it was a trip of bravery, friendship, and unquenchable interest. Sami and his friends were able to get through even the hardest problems by working hard and not giving up. When they stood in front of the tomb and revealed the truths that were inside, they understood that they had not only found the final resting place of a lost pharaoh, but also a piece of history that had been waiting to be told. They brought stories that had been lost for hundreds of years to life and made them ready to be told to the world. This would be a lasting way for future generations to remember the forgotten pharaoh. Chapter 1: What They Found A young scholar named Sami used to live in the middle of Cairo, a city full of life and artifacts from other times. Sami wasn't like other teens his age; he was always looking for es and was very interested in the past. He dreamed of finding secrets buried in the sands of time, and he loved nothing more than getting lost in historical stories. Sami found something wonderful while looking through the maze of racks in an old, dimly lit library on a beautiful afternoon. He found an old, dusty map in a forgotten part of the library that seemed to hold secrets from a different time. This map wasn't like most. It had carefully drawn lines, torn edges, and the promise of an adventure Sami could never have dreamed of. The map was like a puzzle that had to be solved to find the location of the tomb of a king whose name had been lost to history. People said that this pharaoh's final resting place was hidden and protected by sneaky traps and clever puzzles to keep people who weren't supposed to be there from getting there. Sami's heart raced at the thought of finding a place that no one had been to before. He knew that digging this tomb could bring up long-buried secrets about the ancient world, such as details about the lives of historical figures. Sami was eager to find the lost tomb because he was interested and wanted to feel the thrill of finding something new. He carefully looked at the map, following its lines and markings to try to figure out the clues that were hidden inside its folds. The map itself was a gem, a key to the past that let you see the amazing things that people did in the past. Sami knew that this trip would be the hardest thing he had ever done. The ancients used traps and puzzles to keep their most important secrets safe. But they were more than just problems; they were tests of how smart and brave you were. Sami found the old map in a library nook that wasn't being used, which started an amazing trip. He would have to use all of his guts and smarts to get through the complicated old Egypt. Sami knew that his adventure would be more than just finding a secret tomb as he got ready to start. His search for a lost piece of history would test his willpower and show him how important it is to learn and go on adventures. He was ready to go into the unknown with the map to help him. He was eager to figure out the puzzles and get past the obstacles that were stopping him from learning the pharaoh's secrets. Chapter 2: The First Hint As Sami unfolded the old map and looked at it in the dim light of his desk lamp, something amazing happened. With all of its complicated lines and marks, the map seemed to come to life and tell stories from the past. As Sami's eyes moved across the paper, he saw a phrase that would help him plan his journey: "At the Sphinx's gaze, where the sun meets the earth, the journey begins." At first, this mysterious message confused Sami, but it eventually made sense to him. The first piece of proof was found in the Great Sphinx of Giza, a huge statue with the head of a person and the body of a lion staring forever at the point where the sky meets the ground at sunrise and sunset. Sami knew that his hunt would begin with this strange and quiet old Egyptian guardian. The Sphinx, a magnificent work of ancient art and design, has stood guard over the Giza plateau for thousands of years, its eyes set on the eastern sky, waiting for the sun to rise every day. Sami knew that he would start his quest to find out about the long-forgotten king at the feet of this huge defender. The hint suggested that the start of the journey would happen when the country was lit up by the sun's first or last rays, making long shadows that revealed secrets that were hidden from plain sight. Light and shadow danced across the old stones, making the Sphinx look like it was coming to life right now. It told anyone who would listen about the secrets of the past. Sami knew that he had to stand in front of the Sphinx at this lucky time in order to continue his quest. He had to be ready to watch, understand, and act on the clues that came from nature and common sense. After learning this, Sami got ready for his trip to see the Great Sphinx of Giza. He was very excited, and his mind was full of questions. What did the Sphinx keep hidden? What secrets were there for people who were brave enough to look for them? Sami knew that this was a chance to go deep into old Egypt and connect with the past in ways that not many people have ever been able to do—more than just looking for a tomb.

Download or read book Pharaoh written by Marie Vandenbeusch and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2016-01-01 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fresh look at the British Museum's celebrated and extensive ancient Egyptian collection from across three thousand years Pharaoh: King of Ancient Egypt introduces readers to three thousand years of Egypt's ancient history by unveiling its famous rulers--the pharaohs--using some of the finest objects from the vast holdings of the British Museum, along with masterworks from the collection fo the Cleveland Museum of Art.. In an introductory essay, Margaret Maitland looks at Egyptian kingship in terms of both ideology and practicality. Then Aude Semat considers the Egyptian image of kingship, its roles and its uses. In ten additional sections, Marie Vandenbeusch delves into themes related to the land of ancient Egypt, conceptions of kingship, the exercise of power, royal daily life, war and diplomacy, and death and afterlife. Detailed entries by Vandenbeusch and Semat cover key works relating to the pharaohs. These objects, beautifully illustrated in 180 photographs, include monumental sculpture, architectural pieces, funerary objects, exquisite jewelry, and papyri. The rulers of ancient Egypt were not always male, or even always Egyptian. At times, Egypt was divided by civil war, conquered by foreign powers, or ruled by competing kings. Many of the objects surviving from ancient Egypt represent the image a pharaoh wanted to project, but this publication also looks past the myth to explore the realities and immense challenges of ruling one of the greatest civilizations the world has seen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique study of the engineering and tools used to create Egyptian monuments • Presents a stone-by-stone analysis of key Egyptian monuments, including the statues of Ramses II and the tunnels of the Serapeum • Reveals that highly refined tools and mega-machines were used in ancient Egypt From the pyramids in the north to the temples in the south, ancient artisans left their marks all over Egypt, unique marks that reveal craftsmanship we would be hard pressed to duplicate today. Drawing together the results of more than 30 years of research and nine field study journeys to Egypt, Christopher Dunn presents a stunning stone-by-stone analysis of key Egyptian monuments, including the statue of Ramses II at Luxor and the fallen crowns that lay at its feet. His modern-day engineering expertise provides a unique view into the sophisticated technology used to create these famous monuments in prehistoric times. Using modern digital photography, computer-aided design software, and metrology instruments, Dunn exposes the extreme precision of these monuments and the type of advanced manufacturing expertise necessary to produce them. His computer analysis of the statues of Ramses II reveals that the left and right sides of the faces are precise mirror images of each other, and his examination of the mysterious underground tunnels of the Serapeum illuminates the finest examples of precision engineering on the planet. Providing never-before-seen evidence in the form of more than 280 photographs, Dunn’s research shows that while absent from the archaeological record, highly refined tools, techniques, and even mega-machines must have been used in ancient Egypt.
