Pharaohs, AHM-TUT

Pharaohs were the kings of ancient Egypt. The Egyptians believed their pharaoh to be the mediator between the gods and the world of men. After death the pharaoh became divine and passed on his sacred powers and position to the new pharaoh, his son. The pharaoh’s will was supreme, and he governed by royal decree.
