Hellenized
Hellenization (other British spelling Hellenisation) or Hellenism is the adoption of Greek culture, religion, language and identity by non-Greeks. In the ancient period, colonization often led to the Hellenization of indigenous peoples; in the Hellenistic period, many of the territories which were conquered by Alexander the Great were Hellenized; under the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire, much of its territory was Hellenized; and in modern times, Greek culture has prevailed over minority cultures in Modern Greece. Etymology The first known use of a verb which means "to Hellenize" was in Greek (ἑλληνίζειν) and by Thucydides (5th century BC), who wrote that the Amphilochian Argives were Hellenized as to their language by the Ambraciots, which shows that the word perhaps already referred to more than language. The similar word Hellenism, which is often used as a synonym, is used in 2 Maccabees (c. 124 BC) and the Book of Acts (c. 80–90 AD) to refer to clearly much ...

A '' Book of the Dead'' is a key funerary (and religious) artifact in any tomb from Ancient Egypt.

The Ancient Egyptians believed that the recently deceased had to navigate a dangerous underworld to reach the afterlife. ''The Book of the Dead'' contained spells and prayers that provided guidance and protection through the journey.

Amenemhat (chief Of Teh-khet)
Amenemhat was a Nubian official under Hatshepsut and Thutmosis III. He was ''chief of Teh-khet'' and was therefore a governor ruling a region in Lower Nubia for the Egyptian state. In the New Kingdom, Egyptian kings had conquered Lower Nubia. To secure control over the new region they appointed people of the local elite as governors. Teh-khet was a Nubian region that covered the area about Debeira and Serra. The local governors here formed a family, while the governor proper held the title ''chief of Teh-khet''. Amenemhat is known from several monuments. A statue found at Buhen indicates that he started his career as a simple ''scribe'' under king Thutmosis I before he followed his brother in office. He was probably appointed during the reigns of Hatshepsut and Thutmosis III. Amenemhat was the son of the ''chief of Teh-khet'' Ruiu, while his brother Djehutyhotep (chief of Teh-khet), Djehutyhotep followed Ruiu in office and was followed then by Amenemhat himself.

Amenemhat (nomarch, 16th Nome)
Amenemhat, often reported with his short form Ameny (''Jmnjj''), was an ancient Egyptian "Overlord of the Oryx nome" (the 16th nome of Upper Egypt) and chief priest during the reign of pharaoh Senusret I of the 12th Dynasty (20th century BCE). Biography Amehemhat's mother was a noblewoman called Henu, whilst his father's name is unknown. Amenemhat was married to Hetepet, a "mistress of the house" and daughter of a governor, and the couple had a son called Khnumhotep. However, any relationship between Amenemhat and the ruling family of governors founded earlier by Khnumhotep I is unknown, and it was proposed that he could rather have been a member of the previous family of local governors. In any case, he administered his governorate from the city of Men'at Khufu from Year 18 to at least Year 43 of Senusret I.Wolfram Grajetzki, ''The Middle Kingdom of ancient Egypt: history, archaeology and society''.

Amenemhat (son Of Thutmose IV)
The following is a list of mummies that include Egyptian pharaohs and their named mummified family members. Some of these mummies have been found to be remarkably intact, while others have been damaged from tomb robbers and environmental conditions. Given the technology/wealth at the time, all known predynastic rulers were buried in open tombs. It was not until Pharaoh Den of the first dynasty that things such as a staircase and architectural elements were added which provided better protection from the elements.Shaw, Ian and Nicholson, Paul. The Dictionary of Ancient Egypt. p. 84. Harry N. Abrams, Inc. 1995. Identified --> Disputed The following entries are previously identified mummies that are now in dispute. Over time through the advance in technology, new information comes to light that discredits old findings and beliefs.

Amenemhat (son Of Thutmose III)
:''See Amenemhat (other) for other individuals with this name.'' Amenemhat was a prince of the Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt. He was the son of Pharaoh Thutmose III., p.137 He was the eldest son and appointed heir of the pharaoh. It is possible that his mother was Queen Satiah, but it has also been proposed that Neferure – the daughter of Hatshepsut and Thutmose II – was married to Thutmose III. Although Neferure is identified several times as the royal wife of Thutmose III while he was the co-regent of Hatshepsut, who was serving as pharaoh, some authors think it is less likely that Neferure was the mother of Amenemhat. The name of Amenemhat was mentioned on an inscription in the Karnak Temple in the 24th year, shortly after the death of Hatshepsut and the subsequent ascension of his father to pharaoh. He was appointed as Overseer of cattle – quite an unusual title for a princeDodson & Hilton, p.19 – in that year. Amenemhat predeceased his father, who ruled for ...
