would splain it.

also, i saw that tutankamun was originally named tutankaten, and 'changed his name', hailign a reversion from akenaten's 'heresy' and back toward the old gods. but given the age of tut, this was likely not his doing but that of one of his advisers, Ay, who was also an adviser for previous pharoahs, including akhenaten.

hmm.

very interesting story.

also, akenaten = moses may be too much. moses may have been a follower of akhenaten, though. hard to tell. moses was a popular name in egypt at the time. (pharoah thutmoses preceded these cats by a couple of generations). and he was definitely black and looked to the south in his kingship.


peace & blessings,
