The Great Name: Ancient Egyptian Royal Titulary
Logos Editions are fully connected to your library and Bible study tools.
Overview
The titulary of the ancient Egyptian king was one of the symbols of authority he assumed at his coronation. At first consisting only of the Horus name, the titulary grew to include other phrases chosen to represent the king’s special relationship with the divine world. By the Middle Kingdom, the full fivefold titulary was clearly established, and kings henceforth used all five names regularly. This volume includes all rulers’ names from the so-called “Dynasty 0” (3200 BC) to the last Ptolemaic ruler in the late-first century BC, offered in transliteration and English translation with an introduction and notes.
