1. In this ‘king-list’, on a wall in the temple of Sety I at Abydos, c.1300 BC, Sety and the young prince Rameses (the future Rameses II) bring offerings to the list of names of kings written out in a continuous sequence from the 1st to the 19th Dynasty. Certain kings’ names (and sometimes whole dynasties) were omitted from the list when the priests at Abydos regarded them as illegitimate.

2. This body of a child, excavated in 1994 at Taramsa-1, near the temple of Hathor, at Dendera, is the earliest Egyptian so far identified, dating to c.55,000 BP.
