» IsisXXXGrtOne - Hamunaptra
First of all, there was and is no place such as Hamunaptra. The fictional city,however, could almost be the mirror image of the real life ancient Egyptian capital of Thebes, The City of the Dead. Amarna was not known as The City of The Dead but as the rebel pharaoh, Akhenaton's, new capital city after he moved it from Thebes. I've never heard of an Anuk-su-namun but as previously mentioned, she, or someone with a similar name was probably the wife of Seti 1 although I've never heard of her before. Ankhesenamun was the wife of Tutankamun. I've never heard of there being 2 Imhoteps from any ancient Egyptian source but it's possible. I've only heard of the Imhotep from King Djoser's time. He was a scribe, a priest, an architect. . .one of pharaoh's best men. He is mostly known for designing the first pyramid, the stepped pyramid. And I've never heard of the ancient Egyptians trying to raise their dead.-- posted by IsisXXXGrtOne
