WikiProject Ancient Egypt to-do list:

Needed articles.

We should have an article on every pyramid and every nome in Ancient Egypt. I'm sure the rest of us can think of other articles we should have.

Cleanup.

To start with, most of the general history articles badly need attention. And I'm told that at least some of the dynasty articles need work. Any other candidates?

Standardize the Chronology.

A boring task, but the benefit of doing it is that you can set the dates !(e.g., why say Khufu lived 2589-2566? As long as you keep the length of his reign correct, or cite a respected source, you can date it 2590-2567 or 2585-2563)

Stub sorting

Anyone? I consider this probably the most unimportant of tasks on Wikipedia, but if you believe it needs to be done . . .

Data sorting.

This is a project I'd like to take on some day, & could be applied to more of Wikipedia than just Ancient Egypt. Take one of the standard authorities of history or culture -- Herotodus, the Elder Pliny, the writings of Breasted or Kenneth Kitchen, & see if you can't smoothly merge quotations or information into relevant articles. Probably a good exercise for someone who owns one of those impressive texts, yet can't get access to a research library.

Ptolemy[edit]

Did the Ptolemaics wear the Pschent or the diadem? 81.68.255.36 (talk) 15:11, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nevermind, I asked some hellenism expert and he said the Ptolemaics wore the Pschent in Egypt, but not in their territories outside of Egypt. 81.68.255.36 (talk) 10:59, 12 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

esoteric[edit]

saw some history show with some guy claiming it represented the thalamus and the womb. i think it was one of the "ancient aliens" episodes. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.232.147.54 (talk) 19:35, 4 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

when I saw it. I thought of the color and the differences therein. One is the absence of color. The other is the most vivid color in the color spectrum (most intense) these colors are opposites and I think this is a crown representative of duality. 2601:801:2:EF60:153C:E8B9:9B6A:5422 (talk) 07:20, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
