Every Egyptian Ever

Ages 5–12

About

Every Egyptian Ever is a bright guide to ancient Egypt for ages 5–12.

A pharaoh is a ruler of Egypt. The word first pointed to the palace, then to the person.

Old Kingdom, Middle Kingdom, and New Kingdom are names people use today to group long stretches of time. A dynasty is one ruling family. A priest named Manetho sorted kings into dynasties.

Queens and other women are shown as women. A king's beard on a statue can be a symbol of the job, like a crown.
