For a moment, let your mind drift away over the sandy dunes of Egypt, across the Nile and into the Valley of Kings. Here in Egypt’s royal cemetery, 62 pharaohs have been immortalised. Some were great – some were simply embarrassing. Hetshepsut, Tausret and Arsinoë II, along with at least three other Pharaohs were women. Members of the Egyptian Society of South Africa (TESSA) gathered at Kelvin Grove Club on Saturday to hear more about these rare and wonderful women rulers. TygerBurger was fascinated by Keith Grenville’s talk “Hatshepsut – Betrayal of Royal Cover-up?”, intrigued by Jean Smith’s “Tausret – the Unknown Pharaoh” and captivated by Professor Anthony Humphreys’ “Arsinoë – a Valid Pharaoh?” The day itself (as opposed to the formidable names) will live long in the memory. TESSA members regularly
get together to learn more about ancient Egypt, but on Saturday the annual day school was especially entertaining. Informative talks were littered with fascinating images, and then during lunch hour, delicious Egyptian food appeased the body and delighted the imagination. If each lecture was a tomb in a pyramid, then the dark interlacing tunnels were the belittlement of women – even those who ruled over the land. Decades after their rule, many records of their existence have been wilfully defaced. Over time they were almost completely erased from history. Luckily academics know enough of these strong women to fill three lectures with riveting material. Join TESSA and hear for yourself.
