He's a high priest to the god Amun. And thats just very cool. I've always love Egyptian mythology and all.
though they would show pictures but cool
I don't mean to change the subject but when will people learn that when you enter a tomb, you'll be forever cursed? I'm serious, that stuff is real, you can't pay me enough to go in one.
Back on topic... is Amun famous for anything?

I believe that Amun was one of the most revered gods in the Egyptian pantheon, but it's been a long time since I read any of their myths.
You know what they say: If you wanna save the world you gotta push a few old ladies down the stairs

Curses only work if you put faith into them. My aunt curses people all the time, I think she is just plain batty. She cursed her daughters ex boyfriends uh male parts, so far they have not fallen off. They are back together, and well my cousin is still joyful and invigorated.
My aunt also believes sociologists have it all figured out. I love her but man she is hilarious to talk to.

Even the most famous "curse", the one on King Tut's tomb, was purely made up. Tutenkamun was buried too hastily to even have the standard curse inscribed on his tomb.

Unrelated, I know, but how "powdered mummy" was considered an aphrodisiac! and also mummies were used as fuel for trains? Thylacine thanks for interesting subjects.

Nefertiti. They found her tomb also. Cleopatra did not rule during the height of the Egyptian empire, but she was the last ancient pharoh. It was technically Greek territory (then Roman.)
Ah, thanks for clearing things up Sunriser.
Its amazing how they are still finding mummies in Egypt to this day.
Not to mention shes not even Egyptian to began with; shes actually Macedon (which was a kingdom in northern-most part of ancient Greece) and a direct descendant of one of Alexander The Greats general.

By that time hardly any of the pharohs were Egyptian.
