Entries on this page either lived in Ancient Egypt or studied and impacted our collective knowledge of the ancient Egyptians. Here you will find many stories from all across history, and I hope you become just as fascinated with the people of the Black Land as I have been all my life. As I upload new entries I will add them here as well.
Note: The Sign ** By an entry indicates a more "modern" person, i.e. any entry that did not actually live in Ancient Egypt.
