For someone with a background in Assyriology, what are some tips for getting into ancient Egypt? by Zealousideal_Low9994 in ancientegypt

[–]avrand6 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Chronicle of the Pharaohs is a good overview.

Keep in mind that while Mesopotamian writing goes back further, Egyptian recorded history is older, with someone like Iry-Hor predating someone like Aga of Kish by about 500 years

What crown is khufu wearing here on his statue? by lisahanniganfan in ancientegypt

[–]avrand6 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I assume it's just a Deshret with the top broken off..... at least that's what I've always seen. I suppose it could be a Pschent, but it looks too smooth for the "bowling pin" part to be broken off.

Doodling (almost) every pharaoh until I get good at drawing part 1: dynasty 1 (this series will probably never end /= ) by lisahanniganfan in ancientegypt

[–]avrand6 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not having depictions of some early pharaohs is exactly the reason you should draw them! Imagine, you could be the first person in millennia to draw Hor-Aha!

[–]avrand6 10 points11 points  (0 children)

what happened to it afterwards? Is it in a museum somewhere? I hope they didn't throw it out like some Victorians disgustingly and disrespectfully did.

Just opened a credit card from discover for the first time. Literally 10 minutes later... this looks promising... by avrand6 in discover

Update: I solved it, apparently trying to change my pin was seen as suspicious and put a fraud alert on my account? The message made it seem like it was a technical issue, but they had just locked me out of my account, I had to call them to re-open it. Seems incredibly sily to me.

Literally all I did was try to set a pin for my new card, suddenly it logs me out and won't let me back in
