I find this heliograph (or however you spell it) QUITE interesting: This is Kemsit, the Nubian queen of the Egyptian King Mentuhotep II (2061-2010 B.C.), and her servants; from a painting in her tomb chamber wall; Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; from Naville, The XI Dynasty Temples at Deir el-Bahri III (London: Egypt Exploration Fund, 1913), pl 3. Quite ironic and not what "others" would want you to see!

Yeah, it was really brutal... and he was so young. I can't imagine what his last minutese were like or what his mother felt when she saw him.
