Activities

I did alot of things besides offical meetings. When i wanted to see my land I would travel by boat. I would be surrounded by boats that had servents, tents, guards, food, drinks, and musicians. Horses and chariots followed alond on the shore. At night I would have camped on the shore. Another thing I did besides meetings was to go hunting. I was taught how to shhot a bow and drive a chariot at a young age. I went hunting in the desert with my soldier friends. we would go hunting for ostriches. As king I got to pick the fastest hosre and the best hound to race beside my chariot. After the hunt, we hould feast on roasted ostrich.

My daily life as Pharaoh

WhenI woke up my servents would come in and take me to a room off to the side and wash me and put scented oil on me. After that they would cut my hair, darken my eyelids with a black paint called Kohl. Then I put on a fine linen kilt and finally I put my gold pendants on. Then me and my wife would sit on cushions in a courtyard and eat a small meal of bread and fruits that where placed on a small table. Then my wife goes to watch the children and organize dinner parties for that evening. Then I go to meet some foreign merchants. They would meet me in the throne room where they bowed at my feet. They would want to trade wood and spices to my kingdom. They also offered gifts of gold and ostrich eggs. I would then wave my hand and the servants would come and take the gifts and I would welcome them to my kingdom. Then a royal officer needs my approval on expanding irragation along the nile. After we talked for a while I would dismiss him and go hane my mid day meal with my wife. We are served a meal of beef, figs, vegetables, and some fine wine. After lunch servents take me to inspect the irrigation project and meets with a high priestess who advised me to approve it. Then i would relax and play a game of Dogs and Jackals. At the end of the day i meet my wife and guest for an evening of eating and dancing. http://www.pbs.org/wnet/pharaohs/life_pharoah.html

Strength of our Army

my army was strong but we only used bronze and copper weapons. Are enemys the Hittites used iron weapons which did not break as easy as the copper or bronze did. For shields we used tough dried Ox-hide. (Tutankamen by Brain Williams)

Toys and Games when I was young

Some of the toys I played with were balls with rattles, and mices that you pulled behind and the their tails move. Some of the games i played were Tug-of-war, and leapfrog.
