You are a scribe living in the fertile blacklands of Egypt during the
New Kingdom period. The year is 1272 B.C. You step out onto the
terrace of your magnificent home and breath in the warm evening air.
As you gaze into the setting sun, or Amon as he is known, you feel a
sense of pride at the fact that you have graduated from scribe school
and that you are now a wealthy servant of pharaoh. "Well, not everyone
can claim to work for a god. ", you chuckle to yourself. Suddenly, you
awaken with a jerk. As you wipe the drool off your writing board, you
realize to your disappointment that you are still in scribe school,
learning to be a scribe. You look up to see your school master working
with another student. A student sitting near you passes you a piece of
papyrus with some writing on it.
DO YOU?
