 |  |  | Ancient Egypt: Encyclopedia II - Ancient Egypt - History
It is particularly noteworthy that the basic elements of Egyptian culture were remarkably stable and changed little over a period of nearly 3000 years. The religion, customs, art expression, architecture, and social structure, over that time are "un-mistakably" Egyptian.
The history of ancient Egypt proper starts with Egypt as a unified state, which occurred sometime around 3000 BC. Narmer, who unified Upper and Lower Egypt, was the first pharaoh, though archaeological evi ...

 |  |  | Ancient Egypt: Encyclopedia II - Step pyramid - Ancient EgyptThe earliest Egyptian pyramids were also step pyramids. During the Third Dynasty of Ancient Egypt (27th century BC), the architect Imhotep built Egypt's first step pyramid, the Pyramid of Djoser, by building a series of six successively smaller mastabas (an earlier form of tomb structure), one atop of another. Later pharaohs, including Sekhemkhet and Khaba, built similar structures.
However, by the time of the Fourth Dynasty, less than a century later, construction techniques had evolved to allow the emergence of the "true pyramid": w ...

 |  |  | Ancient Egypt: Encyclopedia II - History of cats - Ancient EgyptThe exact history of human interaction with cats is still somewhat vague. The earliest written records of attempts to domesticate cats date back to ancient Egypt, circa 4000 BC, where cats were employed to keep mice and rats away from grain stores. However, a gravesite discovered in 1983 in Shillourokambos, Cyprus, dating to 7500 BC, contains the skeletons of a ceremonially buried human and a type of young cat. Since cats are not native to Cyprus, this suggests that cats were domesticated (or just tamed) at least this early. The cat found in ...

 |  |  | Ancient Egypt: Encyclopedia - Bast goddessIn Egyptian mythology, Bast (also spelt Ubasti, and Pasht) is an ancient goddess, worshipped at least since the Second Dynasty. The centre of her cult was in Per-Bast (Bubastis in greek), which was named after her. Originally she was viewed as the protector goddess of Lower Egypt, and consequently depicted as a fierce lion. Indeed, her name means (female) devourer. As protectress, she was seen as defender of the pharaoh, and consequently of the chief god, Ra, who was a solar deity, gaining her the titles La ...
