The desire of the Jews to maintain their na- tional and religious identity, when scattered among the nations, finds its actual expression in self organization, which has served to a ram- part against external influence. The dispersion of the people in modern times has become one of its unique characteristics. Things were different in classical period, and especially in the Hellenistic period, following the conquests of Alexander the Great, when disper- sion and segregational organization were by no means an exceptional phenomenon, as revealed by a close examination of the history of other nations.

  • To Name a Few Random Name Tables You Can Take Anywhere
    To Name a Few Random name tables you can take anywhere Sample file Introduction Most of this zine is a mere transcription of the random human name tables printed in Xanathar's Guide to Everything. Since that's the only thing I ever reference in that book, I'd rather have something small and portable that I can scribble on and annotate with my notes about NPCs. The last page details two new spells that deal with names. Do note that whether a name is listed as "male" or "female" should be taken with a grain of salt, as many of the names are unisex. Larger books of names exist, of course. In addition to baby name books and online generators, I recommend the Story Games Names Project by Jason Morningstar. It covers a wide range of genres, and can be found in print-on-demand at lulu.com, or as a free pdf at archive.org. If you enJoy the spells, you might enJoy my other work on the DM's Guild and on itch.io.

  • Abstract: Key Words: the XI Dynasty in Ancient Egypt, the XII in Ancient
    L'importance de la déesse Hathor et ses prêtresses pendant l'Ancien et le Moyen Empire L'importance de la déesse Hathor et ses prêtresses pendant l'Ancien et le Moyen Empire Chaïmaa Mossaad Abdel Khalek [email protected] faculté des lettres, département de guidage touristique, section française, Université de Ein-Chams Abstract: The importance of the goddess Hathor and her priestesses during the Old and Middle Kingdoms Towards the second half of the Old Kingdom and until the beginning of the Middle Kingdom, the priestesses of Hathor had a remarkable importance, and the title Hmt-nTr ¡wt-Hr, was used occasionally by queens and princesses, as an example: Queen Meresankh III, wife of King Chepseskaf and Princess Nefrheteps, daughter of King Djedefrê of the IVth Dynasty. Similarly, during the Middle Kingdom, the elite women who served their gods, were priestesses of music by taking the title SmAayt nt-nTr(t) or SmAayt, and being part of the Harem. At the end of the XIth Dynasty and by the reign of Sesostris II of the XIIth. Dynasty, the position as Hathor's priestess, had gradually disappeared and became limited to a few provincial centers where the goddess Hathor was venerated. Therefore, it was one of the characteristic manifestations finding the goddess Hathor on the handles of the mirrors and the monumental stones in the places of worship. Some Egyptologists have suggested that the jewels and costumes and other personal belongings of the princesses of this period help the priestesses of Hathor to incarnate in various aspects of divine kingship.

Illustrations compiled by Günter D’Hoogh Acknowledgements This sourcebook is dedicated to Kristel, my wife, for being a ZENOBIA-widow while I was again working at the laptop for hours; and to Paul Elliott who introduced me to the historical fantasy of ZENOBIA! Günter D’Hoogh 2 EGYPT, PLAYGROUND OF THE GODS THE CONTENTS I INTRODUCTION Timeline The Ægyptian Dynasties II THE WORLD OF ÆGYPT The People The Daily Life The Land The History The Calendar III CHARACTER CREATION IV RELIGION V HEKA VI PHILOSOPHY VII MONSTERS & WILD ANIMALS VIII TREASURES IX TOMBS OF ÆGYPT X ÆGYPTIAN TERMINOLOGY XI REFERENCES 3 EGYPT, PLAYGROUND OF THE GODS I INTRODUCTION The famous Ionian historian, Herodotos, once wrote “Ægypt is a gift of the Nile”. And indeed without that great river Ægypt could never exist, it would be nothing but an endless dry and deserted desert region. The Nile meant everything to Ægypt: water, food, building materials, transport, etc... But however important the Nile was, as important to the Egyptian nation were the gods, the temples and the priests. Ægypt was and still is the temple of the world! Although Ægypt lost a great deal of its past splendour and the Imperials never held it in high esteem, the land is still great for its temples and its gods. The period of the (great) pharaohs is over - an Imperial governor is ruling instead - but the gods still leave their mark on the visitor and on everyday life.
