Thank you for a very informative, and entertaining, video! I am confused by one thing, though. When the Egyptians created a drawing of a catfish engaging in the human activity of fighting in a battle, it seems like we accepted that catfish as representing a person named Catfish. When the Egyptians drew a picture of a catfish doing the human activity of herding livestock, it seems like we take that to mean the Egyptians thought catfish were an animal that had the ability to lead other animals. Couldn't it just be that there was another guy named Catfish, and he was a livestock herder? I feel like there's a Catfish Hunter joke that needs to be made, but I'm too tired to come up with it.
His birth name was "Min-es" (Menes) and his family Neter was Min. Thinis is the Greek name for "Taj-Anu" (Tjenu) which was the first of the "3 Tekh-Anu" or 3 Pillar Cities of Anu which date to Zep Tepe. These were the earliest astrally-aligned Temple Cities in Kemit. The other two Pillar Cities are: "Anu Shem-na," the "Southern Pillar of Anu." It was also called Nesi-Tawi, “Throne of the Two Lands,” and "Ipet Isut," the Finest of Seats (of the Neteru)." In Arabic and Greek, it was called Karnak, and Thebes. The 3rd (youngest) Pillar City is "Per Anu Mehert," the Northern Pillar of Anu, (Greek, Heliopolis). It was given an additional name "Min-Nefer" in honor of the first Dynastic King of the Two Lands, Min-es (Menes, Narmer). "Per Anu Mehert," was possibly the "Greatest Temple of All Time" and has now almost totally disappeared. Its stones were used to construct medieval Cairo. But even in Ptolemaic times, the Greeks used Heliopolis as a quarry to construct the Pharos lighthouse in the harbor of Alexandria. In Roman times, its obelisks were taken away to adorn Alexandria and were sailed across the Mediterranean to Rome. Tekh Anu (Pillar of Anu), aka Hatekhen, Tekhenu, and Obelisk were 'raised' along the entire Nile River Valley with the oldest in "Sah-Ba" (aka Saaba, Sheba), and encompassed present-day Ethiopia, Eritrea, Southwestern Kenya, and Yemen. Although they are dated to between 7200 and 5000 BCE, some are much older. Herausgegeben von Uhlig, Siegbert, Encyclopaedia Aethiopica: D-Ha (Wiesbaden: Harrassowitz Verlag, 2005), p. 871

Lion = Zodiac sign Leo. Bull = Taurus. Sheep/Goat = Ares. Catfish = Pisces, etc. these symbols represent Astronomical time stamps which can reference and pinpoint aeons or era's of time. Horus = Hunting falcon brought by conquering tribes from Eridu and Ur. The Falcon was the symbol of Pre Sumerian Kingship brought by Gilgamesh's younger brother and his entourage who was expelled from his homeland after his older brother was made King. i.e The Brotherhood of the followers of Horus, Sailed down the Persian gulf and around the gulf of Oman to the gulf of Aden into the Red sea up the coast across the desert and mountains and into the area around Abydos, Conquered the local tribes which at the time were governed by religious polity's (Priesthoods associated with local deity's) Abydos = Wepwawet (looks like Anubis but much older). Established first Kingship (note =Dynastic Kemetians didn't called their Kings Pharaoh. the word Pharaoh is ancient Semitic for "Lord of the White House", and later just "White House" (just like the American president's residence) they just called their Kings, King.

He was the "High" Priest and Spiritual leader of the Tassili Libyans with the Magic Mushrooms growing out of his head with the sacramental jar to his left, dead and buried, you can see he is below the earth, vanquished. That female character in front of Narmer was his daughter Neith as she also has shrooms coming out of her head and would become Narmer's Queen.
BTW, I saw so many symbols in those cosmologic empires that I can't unsee. Have a look on a blog called: Old Europe Culture. I'm sure that bull force of nature is taurus, the springtime for war, specially between Taurus and Gemni, which is a double Taurus. In that time the zodiac wheel was being built, specially when you look mesopotamic culture were influencing there. Oh boy, It is such a rich culture.

Greetings bibia.
@@skylarjon3464Bat is young so is Hapi, could be Aurochs. According to tax record it was already unified, seems like a repeating story for new house house at the time and areas.
Just so you will know, Narmer was the first Divine king, or god king, he was not a Pharaoh. Pharaoh means the Great House. The Divine king lived in the Great House. The time when the Divine King became the Pharaoh was during the new Kingdom and his name was Thutmose III. I was in shock when I found out, but there you are. I think, if you want to be right in this, you need to do a deep dive into the history of ancient Egypt. You or anyone else who follows you well not find good understand here.
It is well known and understood by many that the term “pharaoh” was not used in its current sense until New Kingdom. Nonetheless, it is a term used to describe the rulers of ancient Egypt from the first dynasty onwards. Note that these facts are among the very first detailed in the opening summary of the Wikipedia article for “Pharaoh.” This is for clarity and convenience. As stated in the video, we don’t know for sure what this pharaoh called himself and what others called him. Namer is a phonetic reading of the symbols associated with him using much later pronunciations. It’s more likely not his name, but it is a logical thing for us to call him, in the absence of a better option. Likewise most pharaohs used titles which would likely be most accurately translated as king. A modern conception of a king is quite different to what kingship meant in ancient Egypt. Plus, the English word for an Ancient Egyptian king has been pharaoh for a long time now by convention. People understand this. Sure, it’s not historically accurate, but we actually don’t know what many of them were called in their time, or how any surviving terms would have been pronounced. So, given these things it easier and clearer to follow convention than to insist on using historical terms. No dynasty has ever called itself the first dynasty and no kingdom has ever called itself the old kingdom. Germans aren’t German and they don’t speak German either too btw. But we all can point to Germany on a map.
5:40 What you call "a guy" is the Sphinx. The Sphinx was half-buried at the time, so they thought it was a head on a platform just as it's depicted here. They didn't know it had legs. It also had a pole set into its back holding that fan, so from the front view the head would have the fan behind it. The Sphinx would have been a popular symbol of the locals, and a point of pride in having the biggest monument, so this shows Narmer conquering the Sphinx to represent conquering the land and the people who were identified with the Sphinx. Well anyway that's what some guy on UA-cam said.
The best part about this theory is that it makes people who are responsible for surgery, architecture, and philosophy suddenly go "aaaah big monument good" and that they don't know how to dig.
@@leonfrancis3418 YOU don't know how to clear the sand around the Sphinx, since you just said "dig". How would you "dig" when the entire desert would fill it right back in? Wasn't the Sphinx buried up to its neck until the 1800s, when Europeans were the first in over a thousand years who "knew how to dig"? As for "monament good", that IS how some people talk. Even after hearing proper English spoken every day for 400 years, that's the best they can manage.
@@customsongmaker When you're done making personal attacks and attacking the speech of dinwitted westerners, you can address my point. These people are responsible for such things as philosophy, architecture, and medicine, just to say a few. Look up a picture of Egyptian surgical tools. These people built the first pyramids. Imhotep came from these people. The theory you're going to follow is that they worshipped a face in the ground and never thought to look beneath it Seriously?
@@leonfrancis3418 The picture is in this video, showing the Sphinx with a flat back and no legs. The Dream Stela of Thutmoses IV says that the Sphinx was buried up to its neck, and all of Egypt left it that way for hundreds of years until Thutmoses IV uncovered it. Then it got covered with sand again for thousands of years. And since they couldn't find the ground beneath all that sand, they definitely couldn't build any pyramids at that time. Pyramids aren't built on top of sand.
Yes I know, this is 2yr old. The sandle bearer is fascinating. What additionally fascinating are the various sizes of the people. I'm starting to think these are true to life depictions. They were very precise in their depictions and protocols. One panel shows very different and various sizes. Please don't push that old chestnut of size always depicts importance. It's clear in the later periods that it's level of importance but earlier it seems like we're people at that time that no longer exist for whatever reason. That one ancient sumerian king is holding a lion like a cat. Extremely large beds have Been found as well. Extra large weapons, large thrones and entrances with door handles impossible to reach. Let's just say it's odd.😊
Thank you for this 🙂 David rohl talks about the early rulers in Egypt came from Babilon . He ties the story in the bible to this migration at the point of the tower of babel and shows that 'nmr' could be 'nimrod' in the bible. So, it might be possible the first pharaoh is this nmr or nimrod

@@customsongmakerwe wuz vikings and legionnaires say the people conquered by Rome and decimated by viking raids. Keep projecting He was Kemetu. Egypt didn't exist then. Egypt is a Greek name.
@@leonfrancis3418 You wouldn't know anything about Egypt if Europeans hadn't translated the hieroglyphs, after almost 2,000 years of nobody being able to read them.
@@customsongmaker What's interesting is that there are BĪăck Africans who speak and "write" languages extremely similar to the Medu Neter today. It is Africa's truly classical language. Your forebears "translated" something that at the time they did, there wore modern versions of the language being spoken by BÌàck Africans. That's likely your first time seeing it be called by its proper name. It was a translation and a discovery for you. Not for the people who came from it.
it wasn’t such a great country, there was only the Nile region. Around there was and is desert. I was there. just sand. Can you breath by your fast talking?
@@leonfrancis3418 Very true, don't expect the important details. Such as the blonde mummies in Egypt, blonde mummies in China where they have hundreds of pyramids, blonde mummies in South America where they have hundreds of pyramids. And when those blonde people disappeared from the region - in China, in Egypt, and in South America - no more pyramids got built ever again.
What do you think about this? I believe in the king list, why would we not? Plus, consider that Solon in Plato dialogs confirm such list and length. Also, the water damage on the Sphinx suggests +10k years of extra history not being considered at all by the scholars.
That has been pretty well debunked. Stefan Milo has an entertaining and very credible video on his channel discussing that theory. Maybe the Pharaoh Nerd could do some videos debunking some of the stranger ideas people have about ancient Egypt. His knowledge is excellent and also seems well researched with his information supported by credible evidence. Good video idea 💡 😉
Sad that conspiracies do so well... The history of Egypt is (relatively) well understood and ALIENS (etc.) are totally BS! 🐃💩..., 👽=FAKE!!! You might want to believe but evidence debunked aliens, snake oils and the bibble over and over again. Just because no one can't disprove a thing like : bible, snake oils or aliens isn't prove of their existence or evidence of their truth..., the opposite is true as well.... But I would not trust things unless there is scientific evidence that can be replicated and peer reviewed!!! Greetings bibia. Ps any and everything we think we know as humans is bs on some level but relatively speaking the way of science is the closest to the truth we can hope for in our lifetime! And believing is okay, but our species have a tendency to overreact, making me believe that I had to make this comment 😅.

He was the "High" Priest and Spiritual leader of the Tassili Libyans with the Magic Mushrooms growing out of his head with the sacramental jar to his left, dead and buried, you can see he is below the earth, vanquished. That female character in front of Narmer was his daughter Neith as she also has shrooms coming out of her head and would become Narmer's Queen.
BTW, I saw so many symbols in those cosmologic empires that I can't unsee. Have a look on a blog called: Old Europe Culture. I'm sure that bull force of nature is taurus, the springtime for war, specially between Taurus and Gemni, which is a double Taurus. In that time the zodiac wheel was being built, specially when you look mesopotamic culture were influencing there. Oh boy, It is such a rich culture.
First: 👍👍👍, congratulations on a great video. I thoroughly enjoyed 😉. You go further than most, wich is GOOD!!! 😅. You seem to be right most of the time too.. (🤔or maybe ALL the time 😉😂)
2nd: I couldn't find the video of Q@...,the last video or previous video you speak of..., I can't find it 🤷♂️.... Is it on an other channel???
This content is soo good I don't mind that much but I'm curious of that pre-dynastic video(s) wich you might have.., because I like your work (so far) and became member straight away...
Greetings bibia.
Did he complete this excellent series?
'Clump of papyrus' is a fun thing to say
Did you do one on Apepi the Hyksos?
The electric catfish was in the Nile River and the Egyptian thought it was a bad ass and protected the other fish.
And it’s also a symbol of spiritual authority meaning he was also a priest
At 18.26, the text on the right side is in Armenian. But I don't know how "catfish" was called in old Armenian. :)
They were surprised to find Aha’s name 😜
Cool series, Please Consider Purchasing a Pop Filter for your 🎤 microphone
Your videos are great
I fear for your health 3000 years of history is a long time.
Im pretty sure the catfish is just used for its phonetic value. Also he was never pharoah because that title didnt exist until the new kingdom.
I always assumed they called him that cuz he was just narming all the time
Why is his face of a white man from Middle Ages Europe? The first fish looks kind of like a sturgeon though to me
WE....
Some of those catfish are electric so the name 'fierce catfish' or 'angry catfish' might be allied to that.
We used to eat painfu catfish
fierce catfish sounds like he chose that name for his AOL account at 12 and never got to change it
Are we just gonna ignore the First creature with horns above Narmer???
Look up the Narmer Palette. It's either a representation of Narmer's strength or the image of the bovine goddess Bat
@@skylarjon3464Bat is young so is Hapi, could be Aurochs. According to tax record it was already unified, seems like a repeating story for new house house at the time and areas.
Did you say... Scorpion King!?

The buls tail isn’t really part of his clothing. It’s called ishobe, it’s basically a fancy flyswatter made out of a bulls tail
Just so you will know, Narmer was the first Divine king, or god king, he was not a Pharaoh. Pharaoh means the Great House. The Divine king lived in the Great House. The time when the Divine King became the Pharaoh was during the new Kingdom and his name was Thutmose III. I was in shock when I found out, but there you are. I think, if you want to be right in this, you need to do a deep dive into the history of ancient Egypt. You or anyone else who follows you well not find good understand here.
It is well known and understood by many that the term “pharaoh” was not used in its current sense until New Kingdom. Nonetheless, it is a term used to describe the rulers of ancient Egypt from the first dynasty onwards. Note that these facts are among the very first detailed in the opening summary of the Wikipedia article for “Pharaoh.”
This is for clarity and convenience. As stated in the video, we don’t know for sure what this pharaoh called himself and what others called him. Namer is a phonetic reading of the symbols associated with him using much later pronunciations. It’s more likely not his name, but it is a logical thing for us to call him, in the absence of a better option.
Likewise most pharaohs used titles which would likely be most accurately translated as king. A modern conception of a king is quite different to what kingship meant in ancient Egypt. Plus, the English word for an Ancient Egyptian king has been pharaoh for a long time now by convention.
People understand this. Sure, it’s not historically accurate, but we actually don’t know what many of them were called in their time, or how any surviving terms would have been pronounced. So, given these things it easier and clearer to follow convention than to insist on using historical terms.
No dynasty has ever called itself the first dynasty and no kingdom has ever called itself the old kingdom. Germans aren’t German and they don’t speak German either too btw. But we all can point to Germany on a map.

I clicked for the wojacks
Wonder if he got his nickname because he went noodling, that's how the guy i know named catfish got his
5:40 What you call "a guy" is the Sphinx.
The Sphinx was half-buried at the time, so they thought it was a head on a platform just as it's depicted here. They didn't know it had legs.
It also had a pole set into its back holding that fan, so from the front view the head would have the fan behind it.
The Sphinx would have been a popular symbol of the locals, and a point of pride in having the biggest monument, so this shows Narmer conquering the Sphinx to represent conquering the land and the people who were identified with the Sphinx.
Well anyway that's what some guy on UA-cam said.
It also had a giant falcon on top of it.
The best part about this theory is that it makes people who are responsible for surgery, architecture, and philosophy suddenly go "aaaah big monument good" and that they don't know how to dig.
@@leonfrancis3418 YOU don't know how to clear the sand around the Sphinx, since you just said "dig". How would you "dig" when the entire desert would fill it right back in?
Wasn't the Sphinx buried up to its neck until the 1800s, when Europeans were the first in over a thousand years who "knew how to dig"?
As for "monament good", that IS how some people talk. Even after hearing proper English spoken every day for 400 years, that's the best they can manage.
@@customsongmaker When you're done making personal attacks and attacking the speech of dinwitted westerners, you can address my point.
These people are responsible for such things as philosophy, architecture, and medicine, just to say a few.
Look up a picture of Egyptian surgical tools.
These people built the first pyramids.
Imhotep came from these people.
The theory you're going to follow is that they worshipped a face in the ground and never thought to look beneath it
Seriously?
@@leonfrancis3418 The picture is in this video, showing the Sphinx with a flat back and no legs. The Dream Stela of Thutmoses IV says that the Sphinx was buried up to its neck, and all of Egypt left it that way for hundreds of years until Thutmoses IV uncovered it. Then it got covered with sand again for thousands of years.
And since they couldn't find the ground beneath all that sand, they definitely couldn't build any pyramids at that time. Pyramids aren't built on top of sand.
This is like Metatron, but with memes.
Same angle and agenda, at the of the day.
Ah yeeeessss the Scorpion King, Dwayne The Rock Johnson. 🦂😂
Yes I know, this is 2yr old. The sandle bearer is fascinating. What additionally fascinating are the various sizes of the people. I'm starting to think these are true to life depictions. They were very precise in their depictions and protocols. One panel shows very different and various sizes. Please don't push that old chestnut of size always depicts importance. It's clear in the later periods that it's level of importance but earlier it seems like we're people at that time that no longer exist for whatever reason. That one ancient sumerian king is holding a lion like a cat. Extremely large beds have Been found as well. Extra large weapons, large thrones and entrances with door handles impossible to reach. Let's just say it's odd.😊
King Scorpion was the first.
He was also Nimrod the builder of the Tower of Babel
This is canon !
Bro. I already covered every egyptian pharaoh on a now defunct channel of mine.
The Pharoah Dweeb
We have no clue what was going on
Amazing seeing the pharoh with his face painted white! I haven't seen it before.
old Kingdom Statues look at the scribe on the palette and other palette
Narmer the sub-mariner
its weird to think that if you've read the books, this counts as a Dune lore video
Thank you for this 🙂
David rohl talks about the early rulers in Egypt came from Babilon . He ties the story in the bible to this migration at the point of the tower of babel and shows that 'nmr' could be 'nimrod' in the bible.
So, it might be possible the first pharaoh is this nmr or nimrod
Rohl is a grifter fool
A lot of Sumer in this. Hmm.
He was probably Italian! Catfish?
Thank you for telling the truth❤ regardless of how many lies and propaganda talk about ancient Egypt. DNA doesn't lie. Ramesses2.
70% of ENGLISH share DNA with King Tut.
Lmfao.
So hicks that catfish "noodle" are actually honoring Narmer.
Catfish? That looks like a coelacanth going by the tail and flipper anatomy

@@leonfrancis3418 You wouldn't know anything about Egypt if Europeans hadn't translated the hieroglyphs, after almost 2,000 years of nobody being able to read them.
@@customsongmaker What's interesting is that there are BĪăck Africans who speak and "write" languages extremely similar to the Medu Neter today.
It is Africa's truly classical language.
Your forebears "translated" something that at the time they did, there wore modern versions of the language being spoken by BÌàck Africans.
That's likely your first time seeing it be called by its proper name.
It was a translation and a discovery for you.
Not for the people who came from it.
it wasn’t such a great country, there was only the Nile region. Around there was and is desert. I was there. just sand.
Can you breath by your fast talking?
All of these things were found beneath the sand. 5,000 years ago it was not a desert.

Don't expect full accuracy.
@@leonfrancis3418 Very true, don't expect the important details. Such as the blonde mummies in Egypt, blonde mummies in China where they have hundreds of pyramids, blonde mummies in South America where they have hundreds of pyramids. And when those blonde people disappeared from the region - in China, in Egypt, and in South America - no more pyramids got built ever again.
@@customsongmaker You don't just make your own songs.
You make your own history.
Pharaoh Narmer was definitely African,.......
What do you think about this? I believe in the king list, why would we not? Plus, consider that Solon in Plato dialogs confirm such list and length. Also, the water damage on the Sphinx suggests +10k years of extra history not being considered at all by the scholars.
That has been pretty well debunked. Stefan Milo has an entertaining and very credible video on his channel discussing that theory. Maybe the Pharaoh Nerd could do some videos debunking some of the stranger ideas people have about ancient Egypt. His knowledge is excellent and also seems well researched with his information supported by credible evidence. Good video idea 💡 😉

Just because no one can't disprove a thing like : bible, snake oils or aliens isn't prove of their existence or evidence of their truth..., the opposite is true as well.... But I would not trust things unless there is scientific evidence that can be replicated and peer reviewed!!!
