Khenemetneferhedjet
Khenemetneferhedjet ''(ẖnm.t nfr-ḥḏ.t)'' was an ancient Egyptian queenly title during the Middle Kingdom. It was in use from the 12th to the early 18th Dynasty. During the 12th Dynasty it also occurred as a personal name. Its meaning is “united with the white crown”. The White Crown was one part of the Double Crown of Egypt and is usually interpreted to have represented Upper Egypt, but it is also possible that while the Red Crown represented the king's earthly incarnation, the White Crown represented the eternal, godlike aspect of kingship., p.28 Famous bearers ;As a name: * Khenemetneferhedjet I, a wife of Senusret IIDodson & Hilton, op.cit., p.96 * Khenemetneferhedjet II, a wife of Senusret III * Khenemetneferhedjet III, a wife of Amenemhet III * Khenemetneferhedjet, daughter of Amenemhat II, mentioned on a seal along with her father; conceivably identical with Khenemetneferhedjet I. ;As a title: * 12th Dynasty: Aat, Hetepti (mother of Amenemhat IV), Khenemet an ...

Wadi El-Hol
Wadi el-Hol is a valley on the Farshut Road, north-west of Luxor on the Qena Bend, situated on the west bank of the river Nile in Egypt. Rock inscriptions in the valley appear to show the oldest examples of phonetic alphabetic writing discovered to date. History In 1993, American egyptologists Deborah Darnell and her then husband John Darnell found letters in two single-line rock inscriptions carved into limestone cliffs in the Wadi el-Hol valley. They returned to the site for several seasons through the 1990s to further study the inscriptions. In 1999, they finally published their research, concluding that they had found the earliest surviving alphabet, dating back to around 1800 to 1900 BCE. In particular, the inscriptions appear to resemble the Proto-Sinaitic script from Serabit el-Khadem.
