Pictures of Egyptian Pharaohs- The Rulers of Ancient Egypt
The pharaohs of ancient Egypt ruled over one of the oldest and most spectacular civilizations in the world, spanning an astonishing period of more than 3,000 years. During this time a succession of 31 dynasties ruled the land, beginning with Menes himself in 3100 B.C. and ending with the last Egyptian pharaoh Nectanebo II in 343 B.C. The king, who from around 2500 B.C. onwards was believed to be the son of the sun god Ra, was the all-powerful ancient Egyptian ruler over the land and considered to be a direct link between his subjects and the gods. He bore the title of "King of Upper and Lower Egypt" and "Lord of the Two Lands," and wore two crowns that symbolized the union of the two realms.
