Ancient Egypt Start‑class

WikiProject Ancient Egypt to-do list:

Needed articles.

We should have an article on every pyramid and every nome in Ancient Egypt. I'm sure the rest of us can think of other articles we should have.

Cleanup.

To start with, most of the general history articles badly need attention. And I'm told that at least some of the dynasty articles need work. Any other candidates?

Standardize the Chronology.

A boring task, but the benefit of doing it is that you can set the dates !(e.g., why say Khufu lived 2589-2566? As long as you keep the length of his reign correct, or cite a respected source, you can date it 2590-2567 or 2585-2563)

Stub sorting

Anyone? I consider this probably the most unimportant of tasks on Wikipedia, but if you believe it needs to be done . . .

Data sorting.

This is a project I'd like to take on some day, & could be applied to more of Wikipedia than just Ancient Egypt. Take one of the standard authorities of history or culture -- Herotodus, the Elder Pliny, the writings of Breasted or Kenneth Kitchen, & see if you can't smoothly merge quotations or information into relevant articles. Probably a good exercise for someone who owns one of those impressive texts, yet can't get access to a research library.

The Exodus Decoded mentions Beni Hasan edit

Latest comment: 1 year ago2 comments2 people in discussion

In The Exodus Decoded, at around 19:30, it mentions Beni Hasan, and mentions a wall painting there of an ancient migration from the areas of modern Israel, semites; the narrator says it refers to the Amo (spelling?), and argues that this refers to the Israelites. After this, it suggests that a seal of Joseph/Jacob/Yakov/Yahkov was found at Avaris (spelling?). Misty MH (talk) 12:04, 1 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

The Exodus Decoded articles states "review in The Jerusalem Post noted that none of the arguments made in the film were accepted by mainstream archaeology and that film-maker Jacobovici freely admitted his lack of academic credentials.[3]" --The Eloquent Peasant (talk) 12:18, 1 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
