Pharaoh - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (624 words)
Pharaoh (Hebrew פַּרְעֹה (without niqqud: פרעה), Standard Hebrew Parʿo, Tiberian Hebrew Parʿōh, Arabic فرعون) is a title used to refer to the kings (of godly status) in ancient Egypt.
The earliest certain instance of the term "pharaoh" is in a letter addressed to Thutmose III in the mid-Eighteenth Dynasty (1539-1292 BC).
The parentage of the next pharaoh, Tutankhamun, is uncertain, and the date and nature of his death is unknown.
Khufu - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (270 words)
He was the second pharaoh of the Fourth Dynasty.
Khufu was the son of King Sneferu and, unlike his father, was remembered as a cruel and ruthless pharaoh.
Some scholars believe that he was not a pharaoh, instead Khufu was a sign of the God of All Gods, or "the sun", so the Ancient Egyptians built the great pyramid in Giza to keep the worship to their god forever.
