White or brown rice might be a matter of taste. But people who substitute brown rice for white rice for health reasons may be onto something, a new study from Harvard University implies. Yet doctors warn that there's more to this effect than the nutrition in rice alone.
Menes (c. 3150 BCE) is the legendary first king of Egypt who is thought to have united Upper and Lower Egypt through conquest and founded both the First Dynasty and the great city of Memphis.
The Pharaohs of Ancient Egypt were the supreme leaders of the land. They were like kings or emperors. They ruled both upper and lower Egypt and were both the political and religious leader. The Pharaoh was often thought of as one of the gods. The name Pharaoh comes from a word meaning great house describing a palace or kingdom. The Pharaoh's wife, or Queen of Egypt, was also considered a powerful ruler.
