Egypt magic tour of-Cairo Museum

Today is the Egypt of the last leg – Cairo museum.

You might wonder, why does my travels to start from the last stop? read after you probably would have, and I also feel that fear time will let myself one day forgotten today in the Museum see, can not wait to want to use text will stay in the mood.

Think of Egypt, many people will think of pyramids, me too.

Arrive at the first stop after Cairo to is the pyramid. However, if possible, I recommend or first museum to take a look at it, this is the ancient civilizations of Egypt and the European civilization, the starting point and world civilization. From here start again to explore the ancient civilizations of Egypt, to appreciate the ancient Egypt people left the world of all these great miracles, you may view more comprehensive and professional.

Cairo museum is located in downtown Cairo, Liberation square.

Today I'm holding the history of ancient Egypt, as just a pen and paper, from 10 am half into the Museum, to the evening 6 points out of the Museum, a total of 7 hours, during which there is no time to sit down and rest, so also will the Museum made a rough probably, if you want to be a complete and detailed reading, not to a couple of times are not possible.

As usual, subject to strict security checks before entering the Museum front yard, Egypt Cairo museum might be arranging all the sights of employment of the most densely populated areas.

No wonder, where you can gather a wealth of ancient Egypt and the pride of modern Egypt.

I face a double red building, white arched gate is a horn on the sun goddess disc of iciz head, two sides is the statue of the goddess are wearing wigs and Cobra, face Holy Majesty.

The gate is a small square around the pool, there is a small, Sphinx, guarded the civilization of the Palace. The front yard is a European-style Lawn-Garden, small size, neatly set with big tall coconut-tree, or arrange a small statue of the Pharaoh, pyramid, Tablet, etc. I think these should be copies and to make art out Sun and rain is too baotiantianwu. In General, Cairo museum belongs to the neoclassical building, from France designers Michel (Marcel Dourgnon), founded in 1900, the official inauguration and opening of 1902.

Cairo museum's collection of alarming, it is said that reached 12 million pieces, see also is only part, of which a considerable number of exhibits-sized large, other national museums in Egypt the incomparable collection.

Cairo Museum and other famous museums in the world has its special, highly professional, we recommend that everyone should have the opportunity to visit make sure to get adequate information in advance, at least to the ancient Egypt mythology and generally a historical process, or have professional tour guide to explain, or can only be a cursory, wasted so valuable perspective on the history and the chance of human civilization. Because I very much like Egypt history, has been in the country before pursuing any understanding of the ancient civilizations of Egypt, but also knowledge of the opportunity to read a lot about ancient Egypt Exploration programs, to Egypt before also especially purchased the history of ancient Egypt "(is the only complete, detailed ancient Egypt history monographs), and read all the way. Rao, deeply is its rich, beautiful, magnificent culture and art of the shock and infection, lost one.

The Hall, I go directly to the right of a tablet before standing still, this is the ancient civilizations of Egypt and the milestone of starting point — the Luo Saida tablet, accurate is a copy of the original is Lu floating Museum Collections.

Tablet in the year 1798, Napoleon's expedition to Egypt is found by a soldier, shimmer tiles, the above writing three text, from top to bottom, ancient Egypt hieroglyphs, secular body text (ancient Egypt instruments record with shorthand style, widely used in Ptolemaic age and Roman domination era) and the text of ancient Greece. At that time as the Napoleon Museum excavations under the auspices of Egypt progresses, a large number of carved pictures of monuments of ancient Egypt hieroglyphs were found, but no one can interpret and considered these characters like Chinese characters as text belonging to the custom image to use for the phonetic text of the European people, this is an unsolved mystery. Fortunately, it was also able to interpret the text of the ancient Greece, so on the tablet of Greece text translation, found that this is a block of memory of Ptolemy v BC 196 year Coronation Ode de stele of, but did not find ancient Egypt hieroglyphs in the remaining two text between what corresponds, until champolion. He is sensitive to discover Greece article recurring Ptolemy's text, but also in ancient Egypt text repeated a group symbol with the scroll pattern, thus he boldly to infer the kind of text may be identical in content, which has lost nearly a thousand years of civilization in ancient Egypt was the mystery unveiled layers. Research has shown that ancient Egypt glyphs is phonographic, rather than the text originally thought of imagery, the Eastern Mediterranean of the ancient Phoenicians came to the region of Mesopotamia, the adoption and modification of Cuneiform, final development integration as the Phoenician alphabet, Latin Ruby text and the text of the ancient Greece, therefore also of ancestor is the cradle of European civilization. Unfortunately, in Egypt gaudily after Cleopatra VII, during a fire burning of the library of Alexandria, a large number of records in the ancient Egypt text documents were destroyed, and later many other foreign nation invasion, ancient Egypt, completely disappeared.

By champolion of unremitting efforts, and later many linguist and archaeologist of long-term research study of ancient Egypt, ultimately get considerable development, and today to showcase a complete history of ancient Egypt.

Cairo museum's first floor Hall exhibits as a whole is the "back" of the glyph, and large exhibits are on the first floor.

"Mouth" in accordance with ancient Kingdom era, the era of the new Kingdom and Greece Rome arranged clockwise direction will have ancient Egypt history, and generally doing small "mouth" is the period of early Royal collection.

I begin from the inside of the mouth in small "to visit.

First attracts me a piece of stone, slate blue as shields, both sides have different content, very fine carving, lithography line flowSmooth clear, this is the famous "the sharmah palette". This stone is early Kingdom era works (about about former b.c. 2925-2575), has 5000 years of history, Sheila Kang Frente de "Jackpot" most valuable art treasures. The sharmah Wang is considered as the Scorpion King of direct Inheritors, generally considered his first unified upper and lower Egypt. The front side of the palette, Germay King profile tall, wearing a white Crown on Egypt, wearing tight clothes and shorts on the one hand and a captive's hair in one hand holding a scepter and be struck. In the upper-right corner of an Eagle foot catch a curved hook, hook a captive of the nose, captives who has a cluster of paper sedge. Paper sedge is longer than the following Egypt's Nile Delta, Egypt under the universal as a symbol, so from this side of the screen can be seen should be demonstrated that sharmah expedition under Egypt's image. Back of the picture is divided into three bars on the lower, the top is the King wore sharmah Egypt Red under the Crown, in four different signs of allies with the banner of Corps of guided visit 2 row was beheaded by 10 members of the enemy's corpse. Central is a two lions, but has a slender neck, neck interlacing together into a beautiful "8". The lower part of the King into a strong Bull, trampled underfoot the enemy, and destroyed the walls of a fortress. Palette around both sides of the upper end are sculpted Tauren faced goddess avatar (a bit like a Thor goddess), avatar is between two hieroglyphs, the Nile in the catfish (N ' r), one of the awl (mr), read together, as "Nar-mer" (Germay). This palette is obviously a victory of monuments, including the sharmah King dons symbols respectively of the upper and lower Egypt's white, red and two Crown, archaeologists also as the King was the first to achieve sharmah Egypt unified important evidence.

To the left of the palette is a slave of my knees like, 2670 years b.c., 2690 ~ also belong to the early period of the third dynasty of the Kingdom.

Kneel like red granite sculpture, slave black hair (wig?), reddish-brown skin, white skirt, right shoulder back carved 4 Pharaoh's name (including 3 digits of the second dynasty Pharaoh, namely Hetepsekhemuy Hai-procedencia Wertheim, Raneb Oranje, Ninetjer, Nieto tyuters), indicates that the slaves to the Pharaoh service too. This knelt like is the earliest known symbol of private slaves.

Browse too early after the period of the exhibits of the Kingdom of glory of ancient Egypt civilization tour officially began, that is the ancient Kingdom and new Kingdom period.

In the mouth of the great "entry stood the famous Pharaoh Rameses II statue. The King and I personally think very narcissistic and wayward conceit, Aswan, Luxor before the journey can be seen everywhere in his figure, even he will be the predecessor of temples or buildings demolished to get enough stone. He is a bit of ancient Egypt in the longest Pharaoh, lived to 96 years old, lives there are 96 sons and daughters, 60 beauties that countless, probably more than 500. He was ambitious, tyrant, but the military but not very successful, he period in Egypt territory do not have more than its predecessor's success, but in his hands was born the world's first complete peace treaty, he and the Hittite King hatu Shri III Convention "will never be hostile," and "never intrusive," the other side of the "territory", and established the military obligation of mutual support, finally there is God on violators threats as well as compliance of grace. Hittite King hatu Shri III also has the eldest daughter and time women married to Rameses Ⅱ. The door in Luxor have about the cause of peace treaty — what battle card stack large murals. But please note that this battle from Rameses to provoke, but in fact campaignin, was besieged by the Hittite army corps was rescued after men, repulsing Hittite army. But back to Rameses is still on the battle to the winner's identity is a big celebration and boast. Rameses Ⅱ unsolved greatest wealth is its achievements in architecture. Rameses Ⅱ is a large amount of manpower and material resources of the Kingdom of financial resources are used in construction, although it leaves to the Temple of the world's unabashedly, tall obelisk and the wonderful frescoes, but you do have the wealth of the Kingdom of hollowed out, so that after the new Kingdom slowly declining. China Tang Tang emperor Qianlong in Qing dynasty, as well as, Empire in its hands reach the peak, but extravagant but rapidly to crash after. But unfortunately the Daming Palace has been completely disappear, and the Summer Palace is also 60 years after the death of Emperor Qianlong was completely burnt Anglo-French.

The ancient Kingdom era is the climax of the construction pyramid, the ancient Kingdom of Museum exhibits and more from the GIZA pyramids and Sakala and tombs of the group.

Kazakhstan Farah Pharaoh's green jade like, Memphis and the high priest of wooden statue, a clerk statue and the statue of Prince couple Rahotep and GNOME statues are very family. These statues are 45 years of history. Priest's statue is currently the world's oldest bronze work, sketched and ears, white marble making oculocutaneous, Obsidian as eyes. Thanks to Egypt's unique climate, in order to keep down so perfect works of art, the successors to 4500 years ago artisans superb technology and embarrassing for adults and admiration. GNOME statue of Pharaoh family placed beside the commanding statues, but no less natural, warm, and his wife works in a tender to embracing her husband, two children or in-laws. In section 6 of the Har Hufu biography "is recorded in the young Pak developed II can't wait to bring his hufu HAL 's" dance of the dwarves ", that is, GNOME," his Majesty expects this dwarf than mineral Kingdom and Puente plea! ", perhaps the equivalent of the then Royal Lane Chen, role.

In the tombs of the Pharaohs mother hufu showrooms you can see and hufu is in stark contrast to the great pyramid is only 7.6cm high himself of ivory.

Then straight on along the corridors are some small pyramids and Sphinx, the number of already made me a little taste shenmeipilao.

Since Greece myth Sphinx of the legend that I used to have cognitive errors, Egypt's Sphinx and Sphinx nothing, ancient Egypt people use this image to represent the Pharaoh while aMaintain the quality of wisdom and Valor.

Subsequently is Egypt's famous female Pharaoh Hart Thorpe Sudal showroom.

This female Pharaoh is both a figure-Morse 1 world women, after marrying a half brother figure-Morse 2 SAE and became Queen. She had no sons, after Figure 3 Morse-young who ascended the throne at the Regency, and finally reigns. Because she and figure-Morse 3 relationship of very poor, so she died Matute Morse 3-back in charge of the regime after the national monument, Temple all her all destroyed, so now can see Hart Thorpe Sudal exhibits less, and mostly from her Tomb in glamour. Exhibits her head do male Pharaoh's dress, similarly with Pharaoh scarf and false beard. Since ancient Egypt is a patriarchal society, she as a remarkable political tactics of women were forced to do so in appearance to reduce people dressed in her ruling of resistance.

From Hart Thorpe Sudal Queen's Hall begins a new Kingdom period.

Ancient Egypt art level also entered the era of the most splendid costumes. First of all in front of the pissing is like the little Prince, the little Prince in the Eagle (Dutch Ruth God) blessings, finger in his mouth sucking, a pair of naive romantic look. The opposite is the portrait of the Queen Merytamun, a Cobra Corolla and wig, she is the daughter of Rameses Ⅱ, subsequently became Rameses Ⅱ Pharaoh Queen.

After the times through Rameses is my favorite in the Museum, and linger longest Hall of Akhernaten El Hena Thom Pharaoh (new Kingdom in the 18th Dynasty Kings 10, BC 1379 ~ 1362 years before), in ancient Egypt of the Pharaohs in El Hena Thom and the creation of Amarna culture (El Hena swallowing built Metro City of the Pharaoh) is a special research project, because it is too too unique, not only is this Pharaoh suddenly went out of the implementation of monotheism – swallow the Sun God, and also his name from the original Hamon Huo Töpfer ("Hamon satisfaction") to El Hena Thom ("' swallowing waited"), but in his ruling period art performance approach more realistic and natural, the emergence of many manifestations of nature and the works of people's lives.

This style of changes in the products so outstandingly in the expression. First attracted me was a large mural, learned this mural is in 1891 at the Pharaoh of the ruins of a Palace, was found in the left it in a place and at the top built a shelter. 1910 some villagers maliciously are destroyed, damaged most of the paintings until then was one of museum pieces to buy back and patched into complete exhibits. Colorful murals depicting wild ducks in the paper's grass, flapping flying dogs chasing, ripple on the water, the water lily leaf floating on it, a carefree rural scenery.

The most typical works is the Pharaoh and the Queen to swallow the Sun God, shine with the Prince and Princess worship of relief.

Relief from solar radiation to a lot of light, the end of each light is a hand, symbol of the God of Pharaoh, swallowed by thanking the whole family. There is also a small statue of the Pharaoh, performance will hold little Princess kiss on her lap. And Pharaoh couple close to each other with walking waist seated.

Famous niffer taili Queen bust (now in the Berlin Museum) is also the representatives of this period.

So the Amarna cultural expressions had more of a Pharaoh as people rather than God's side.

El Hena Thom Pharaonic times work style also influenced the successor to sakaltutan Harmon Pharaoh.

In a sensation of sakaltutan Harmon mausoleum of funerary has a golden throne Chair painted sakaltutan Harmon Pharaoh and the Queen also bathed in the Sun under the hands of comfort.

El Hena Thom Pharaoh in throne also didn't sit when radical reformation of implementation, touched the wealth and political forces are very strong, the priests of God, and eventually fails, his new towns Amarna in he die is discarded and considered cursed place.

We have reason to believe that the Pharaoh's reform ideas have their political considerations, to combat the temple priests group of forces, more centralized power and wealth. But his artistic achievements but also to the ancient civilizations of Egypt into the fresh blood, like dry harsh desert scraping a fresh wind.

After El Hena carefully to enjoy swallowing the phar has arrived after 2 pm, 2/f, soon came to visit the world-famous sakaltutan Harmon Pharaoh archaeological finds.

Sakaltutan Harmon Pharaoh in fact however is no Pharaohs a companion of the contribution of small and Pharaoh, the time is very short, young died, after analysis of the mummies, and assume is killed in the assassination.

However, due to his tomb at Rameses VI's Tomb, so has not been found, and looters are very complete reservation. Imagine a small Pharaoh's Tomb products just filled the second floor of the Museum's most of the area, if that is the figure-Morse III, Hamon Huo StEPP III and Rameses II, the famous Pharaoh's tomb is preserved and that this is magnificent.

Sakaltutan Harmon Pharaoh's Tomb in the most famous was his gold mask, suggests the throne, four-layer rectangular package sets the coffin, two layers of human form suggests a coffin, three bed and suggests a lot of treasures.

In treasure galleries I basically is a showcase of all the exhibits on the glass from a small place are not let to scanning, deeply as 3000 years ago people perfect jewelry Polish crafts, mosaics, and design and imagination. Gold mask and throne of fine level unmatched, even the Pharaoh's Cobra head Crown on serpent scale are characterizations have nuanced, is not a witness is unable to understand, to know sakaltutan Harmon ruled China only in the Shang dynasty. Sakaltutan Harmon Pharaoh's tomb is Cairo Museum of fragrance, especially the Golden mask and throne is basically not loan exhibition, so if you want to see only one trip to Cairo in person. If you are doing the jewellery design, I recommend always to sakaltutan Harmon Treasure Museum to see, you can see these works of art until now still have a huge influence on theIt is no exaggeration to say that the majority of jewelry design inside is of wearing a modern person is also very fashionable.

In the tombs of products you can also see 3000 years ago and now exactly the same as folding chairs and stools, the design is very user-friendly, stool cushion also designed the arc protection cushion is broken people won't trap, too weird.

In Europe people still drink the blood of Joux wool, the Chinese also sat on the ground, the ancient Egypt's idea has been developed to the extent it is so advanced and enjoy the beautiful sunset.

But also because of the ancient Egypt's rich, has been continuously receives coveted foreign peoples and the intrusion, hick, Nova Scotia, Libya, Persians, Macedonians, Greece, Rome, European powers and the Arabs, the ancient Egypt civilization with the disappearance of hieroglyphs and eventually die out.

Museum last visits most mysterious mummies showroom.

Because many Hollywood movie about mummies gives the Mummy terrorist rendering, to see before I feel also very mixed emotions. But might this life is the opportunity for a bite it took $ 20 (actual is 100 Egypt pounds, but then hands only dollars but to do so, no change to me, depressed) buy in. Now is the peak season for tourism, museums galleries from tickets to the mummies of the price to make a lot of the usual like as long as 60 Egypt pounds. Mummy booth is divided into two rooms, total display 16 bit Pharaoh Mummy. In most of the first galleries new Kingdom period 18 ~ 19 dynasty Pharaoh, including Hart Thorpe Sudal Queen, figure-Morse I to IV, Hamon Huo tepu I (when wrapping ruzang flowers), Meng Huo tepu II, Rameses II, Merenptah Mei Leng Gupta (Rameses II in the 13th child) and the second intermediate period of Seqenenre Taa II (skull front gaps, left hand twisted, displays its had very serious injuries, it may be that in the fight against the alien invaders in defense of Egypt by), a Princess and a Hart Thorpe Sudal Queen Virgin mummies. Which figure-Morse a mummy as the hands are not crossed, is not a Pharaoh Ruzang standard posture when, some people think that this is not a Pharaoh Mummy. The second galleries also have probably 4 Mummy, because without their introduction so I didn't take notes. Pharaohs faces serene, mouth slightly open, the whole body winding white linen, hair and teeth also save very good colour becomes dark and sank, as in asleep, don't fear. I personally think is a bit of Mawangdui woman was pale and swollen to pretty much. Pharaoh of ancient Egypt who hope to revive and want to make a way to make a mummy body, during which inspired them to Pharaoh, the God of this world of reverence and love for their Pharaoh mummy on a variety of iciz God and scarab guardian, wish to bless the Pharaoh quiet sleep without being disturbed, however, people's greed is not the Holy scare, looters acts did not know how much damage the Pharaoh Mummy that later monks had to Pharaoh in a closet, but also to retain only a few now, can't help but let saddened by it.

If you think that Pharaoh mummy or somewhat unacceptable, want to see the ancient Egypt's remarkable preservation technology, you can go to the Mummy room next to the animal, a visit is free of charge.

Inside display the dog, monkey, sheep, fish and crocodiles, and other animal mummies, especially two Nile crocodile Mummy. Nile crocodile is the world's largest crocodile species, ancient Egypt who fear them, and in many places have built the temple worship, crocodile as malevolent. Fayyum areas where God is the Crocodile God sobec, also is the "anger", symbolizes the strength of the Pharaoh. They are alive to be as God, people with bread, milk, meat and poultry to feed them, so these two very strong crocodile, is made into the Mummy, the body length is more than 6 meters. Across the glass look can still feel the strong smell of which spelled death and so frightening.

In the Museum's second floor, there are many a one interval open galleries, which combine to display small funerary, a large part is referred to as "Shawabtis" figurines.

"Shawabtis" mean "respondents", Pharaoh after death can order them to do anything. The earliest observed in the Kingdom of the era, in a tomb at the time there is only one, but people are afraid of Shawabtis Pharaoh not enough people to serve, to the new Kingdom period is increased to 401.

There are also domestic war with China Qin form different Chariots of Pharaoh, and two soldiers and figurines.

One team is holding shields and spears of force, another group is holding a bow and arrow-headed, but strangely enough soldiers are not in the central part of the bow and the end.

At the time had come to 6: 00, closed time is 6: 30.

You don't have a lot of tourists have increasingly become open,. Was about to leave when he inadvertently found a room, there are some paper sedge instruments, approaching a look is the famous "The Book of The Dead"-undead books. This is to learn about ancient Egypt people rise up and to the health belief is an indispensable part of the central idea of civilization in ancient Egypt. It tells the story of Olivier Sith netherworld with balance and feathers (symbol of Justice and justice) weighing the weight of the heart, if the heart weight heavier than a feather that life before doing evil things, will be punished and not die. Ghost book also lists the Pharaoh's death to the resurrection to students will encounter between various obstacles and resolve to boot Pharaoh final resurrection. Ghost book is not only to Pharaoh, ordinary people can spend money from monks in the hands of the purchase, this is also the wealth of the Temple gets a means.

Walk out the door to the Museum is the night when the Moon is high.

On this day, as did a-temporal journey, passed 5000 years. In addition to lament the might of the ancient civilizations of Egypt, also admire ancient Egypt people extraordinary creativity, more ancient Egypt civilization, Maya civilization, Mesopotamia civilizations were alien civilization, alternative and night…But fortunately the Chinese civilization grueling 5000 years still continue. This day trip let me become more humble, more let me feel to protect their own national civilization property. China wants to continue for the next millennium, it is necessary to protect their words, their customs, their environment, and flexible change policy to adapt to external changes in the environment. To the Chinese nation will never survive!

2009.2.2 in Cairo
