PER - AA (Great-House) in Ancient Egyptian. The Pharoh was Lord of the Great House.

Pharaoh, (from Egyptian per ʿaa, “great house”), originally, the royal palace in ancient Egypt; the word came to be used as a synonym for the Egyptian king under the New Kingdom (starting in the 18th dynasty, 1539–1292 bce), and by the 22nd dynasty (c. 945–c. 730 bce) it had been adopted as an epithet of respect. The term has since evolved into a generic name for all ancient Egyptian kings, although it was never formally the king’s title. In official documents, the full title of the Egyptian king consisted of five names, each preceded by one of the following titles: Horus, Two Ladies, Golden Horus, King of Upper and Lower Egypt, and Son of Re. The last name was given to him at birth, the others at coronation.

PHARAOHS

Ancient Egypt was ruled by powerful kings called pharaohs, who took the roles of chief priest, war leader, and head of government. Egyptians believed that the pharaohs were living links between people and gods, and that they actually became gods after death.

WERE SOLUTREANS IN ANCIENT AMERICA EGYPTIANS?

Tuesday, June 19, 2012

Yes, according to Bill Tiffee, whose article on Solutreans in America will appear in volume 29 of the series EPIGRAPHIC SOCIETY OCCASIONAL PAPERS. Titled “Were Ancient Egyptians the Solutreans Who First Settled America?” the new study, he says, “looks at the possibility that the Solutreans who first settled America were from Egypt, and that the genetic marker X is found in the highest concentrations among the Druze (who migrated from Egypt 1,000 years ago)and the descendants of the Moundbuilder Native groups including the Sioux and Algonquin and possibly the Cherokee.”

We have previously suggested that the Cherokee incorporate both Greek and Egyptian DNA. Chapter 3 of Donald Yates’ new book OLD WORLD ROOTS OF THE CHEROKEE is devoted to the DNA story of the so-called “anomalous” Cherokee lines, including haplogroups T and X.

Several prominent scholars have argued that Europeans known to archeologists as the SOLUTREANS of France and Spain around 18,000 years ago were the first to settle the Americas. Tiffee examines the similarities between Solutrean and Clovis or Paleo-Indian stone technology and reconstructs the Solutrean culture in Egypt beginning 24,000 years ago (p. 119). He links ancient Egyptians with genetic marker E-M78, mitochondrial haplogroup X, Tula and the Spiro Complex mounds in Oklahoma, among other North American sites. He also discusses the Great Flood of about 10,000 years ago, the legends surrounding Osiris and the rise of agriculture in southern Turkey (Gobekli Tepe).

“Perhaps,” he concludes, “Egyptologists need to rethink their paradigms of ancient Egypt. And perhaps modern Native American descendants of the Moundbuilders, the Algonquin groups, Sioux, Cherokee, Chickasaw (and other Native cultures closely related to mound-building) need to reconsider where their most ancient ancestors came from (129).”

In DNA Consultants’ Cherokee DNA study, “Anomalous Mitochondrial DNA Lineages in the Cherokee,” as well as numerous blog posts since 2009, it was reported that haplogroups U, T, K, J, N, X and L are found in Cherokee descendants in frequencies mirroring those of Egypt.

WHAT DOES “PHARAOH” MEAN?

The name pharaoh came from two Egyptian words, per-aa, meaning “great house” or “palace.” Later, the name for such a building was also used to refer to the king living there. It was used to show great respect.

'Pharaoh' is actually a Greek word that is based on an Egyptian word that meant 'great house'. When this word was first used, it referred to the palace of the king and its greatness, not just to the king himself. We use the word 'pharaoh' today to mean the ruler of ancient Egypt.

The pharaohs were the undisputed rulers of Egypt. They were revered as gods, and their commands were absolute law. Pharaohs lived privileged lives far removed from the common population of Egypt. The Egyptian word �pharaoh,� or �pero� in Greek, was a title meaning "Great House." The enormous palace estate was a representation of the power and wealth given to a pharaoh. Many festivals and religious celebrations were held at the palace.

The Great House
Egypt was the wealthiest country of the ancient world. The pharaohs built palaces that had many rooms and stood several stories high. Tall pillars surrounded the whitewashed bricks of the palace entrance. The inside of the palace usually had high ceilings that allowed cool breezes to circulate the air. Palaces resembled little villages because many people worked and lived there.

Many rooms were built to accommodate the pharaoh's large family, servants, and advisors. There were private chapels, dressing rooms and bedrooms for the pharaoh's family. Offices were built for his ministers. Guardrooms and quarters for servants and soldiers were also contained inside the palace complex. Palaces also included gardens, pools and even artificial lakes.

The gods had a little help, in the form of pharaohs. Pharaohs were the kings of Ancient Egypt. In hieroglyphics, pharaoh means “great house” or “palace”, a word that was eventually used to describe the king himself. The ancient Egyptians saw their pharaoh as a god, more specifically as the god Horus. They thought that when the pharaoh died, a new Horus was born to rule on earth, thus achieving eternal life. In reality, the pharaohs headed the government, the army, set taxes, judged criminals and were high priests of all the temples. All this was in theory, of course. Appointed officials did most of the work, in his name.

GREAT-HOUSE

(GREATHOUSE)

is also a Native American name used by the CHEROKEE TRIBE

and the SHAWNEE TRIBE. The Cherokee Tribe awarded the name for a GREAT DEED.

The Shawnee Tribe assigned the name to the Priest (Shawman) who was in charge of the GREATHOUSE.

Pharaoh: common title for the kings of ancient Egypt.

The word pharaoh is a rendering of the Hebrew par'ô, which in turn renders the Egyptian word pr-' ('great house'). From the fifteenth century BCE, this title was used as a synonym to describe the person of the king; in combination with the king's name (e.g., 'pharaoh Amasis'), it is used from the tenth century.

The names of the pharaohs are known from Egyptian texts and the Aegyptiaca of Manetho, an Egyptian priest who lived in the first half of the third century BCE. He divides the Egyptian history in thirty dynasties; sometimes he is wrong, but it is common to follow his division.

After c.2000 BCE, the pharaoh had five names: four throne names and the name he had received when he was born.

the Horus-name (i.e., manifestation of the heavenly falcon)
He of the two ladies (i.e., the twofold country Egypt, represented by the cobra-goddess Wadjet and the vulture-goddess Nekhbet)
the golden Horus-name (expressing eternity)
He of the sedge and bee (e.g., Upper and Lower Egypt)
Son of (the sun god) Ra (i.e., personal name).

For example, a pharaoh could be called

Horus Mighty Bull, Beloved of Truth
He of the two ladies, Risen with the fiery serpent, Great of strength
Horus of gold, Perfect of years, He who makes hearts live
He of the sedge and bee Aakheperkara
Son of Ra Thutmose living forever and eternity

Modern scholars call this king Thutmose I. The same titles were used for foreign rulers. For example, the Horus-name ofAlexander the Great was 'protector of Egypt' and his fifth name was 'beloved by Amun, chosen by Ra'.

In the following table, when two names are given, the last one is the personal name. Names in italics indicate queens.

In ancient Egypt, the Pharaoh had many roles in his kingdom. He watched over the law courts and was the chief of the temples. He was an army leader and controlled trade expeditions. He supervised the water system and stored the grain. Ancient Egyptians believed that each living pharaoh was a living god. They believed that each pharaoh was the human form of Horus. The pharaohs where very important to Egypt because they pleased their gods so good fortune would come to Egypt. The pharaohs believed that everyone should be treated with justice. The pharaohs were transported from place to place on a chair carried by servants.

There were many items which stood for kingship. For example crowns, which were headresses with jewels, stood for "Supreme Rank." False beards, which were worn by kings and queens, symbolized royal authority. The sceptor also meant royal authority and was carried by kings and queens.

The pharaohs had a daily schedule. The day went like this: first, the pharaoh would go to the temple to please and pray to their god. Next, the pharaoh would hear his daily news from his trusted vizior. Then, the pharaoh would check the architectures which were built by his servants and officials. Finally, if the pharaoh had extra leisure time, he would be entertained by his servants, or he would have a conversation with his wife.
