Merit’s wig - Museo Egizio Collection
Inventory Number: S. 8499 New Kingdom, Pre Ramesside, Dynasty 18. 1425–1353 BCE. Reign: Amenhotep II / Tuthmosis IV / Amenhotep III Location Information: Deir el Medina / tomb of Kha (TT8)
Description:
Another exceptional artifact that belonged to Merit is her wig, made with real locks of hair that were sewn together and braided. The hair is parted in the middle and curled into ringlets that end with braids on either side of the face and on the back of the neck. This type of hairdo was often decorated with flowers and diadems, which were very fashionable in the mid-18th dynasty, as can be seen in the paintings and statues of the period.

This is a video about people in Upper Egypt, in Nubia, who keep Nile crocodiles as pets. It's in Arabic, but the visuals are great.

Since we came to know Minervo and Konshu, they've always been telling us their homeland in our inner world is heavily influenced by Upper Egypt specifically, and not at all by Lower Egypt.
I never gave it much thought because I never had a single idea what this meant.
Right now I'm finding out all Hybrit deities correspond to Egyptian deities from Upper Egypt specifically.
How did they KNOW, all the way from that part of the inner world, never coming to front, what comes from Upper Egypt and what comes from Lower Egypt?
We don't know that! I don't have recollection or records of any research. How does our brain do that? How did it KNOW!?
"Ra is a Lower Egypt deity, we don't have that"
—okay, but Anubis is famous in the outer world as well, isn't him from Lower Egypt?
WRONG, he's from Upper Egypt, like Khonshu.

you said in your post about egypt that you wished people would pay more attention to other spots- would you mind telling us about those spots? like, in your opinion, what are the most beautiful things in egypt?
!!! IM SO GLAD YOU ASKED
usually people like to visit the pyramids, the library of alexandria and alexandrian beaches and some temples in upper egypt which yk understandable they're incredible, but there's so much more to see!!
in the heart of cairo there's so many beautiful historic religious places to visit. coptic cairo is stunning, i recommend anyone visiting egypt to go visit a coptic church if they can the architecture will blow you awayyy my parents took me to visit one when i was really young and to this day it's one of my favorite memories of egypt. and the mosques too! we have some of the oldest mosques in africa they're definitely worth a visit.

the siwa oasis!! i haven't been there myself and i'm literally never not salty about it😭 every time we try to plan a trip there something comes up </3

on the north coast, alex is by far the most visited city (for good reason) but in terms of beaches and resorts i prefer marsa matrouh it's less crowded, and the water is so clear it's insane
Tumblr media Tumblr media
on the red sea sharm el sheikh is a mustttt visit destination, i went snorkeling there for the first time and got see the pretty coral reefs it's one of my favorite places everrrr in egypt <33
Tumblr media
taba is also another place in sinai that looks freaking unreal but i haven't been there yet
i haven't been to upper egypt unfortunately but aside from visiting the famous temples in luxor and aswan i really want to see nubian architecture in person, it's so colorful and full of life
