King Menes and The Unification Battle of Egypt

The Unification Battle of Egypt

The unification battle of Egypt marked the beginning of the early dynastic period which acted as a stepping stone that led to the creation of the first royal dynasty in (c.3100 BCE) by the first Pharaoh “Narmer” a.k.a“Menes” which means “He Who Endures”. King Menes is credited with unifying Egypt into one peaceful empire as he was able to unite lower and upper Egypt into one single unified country through a massive battle across Egypt. Most of the facts about him in his era and gods like Hathor and Horus were known through the “Narmer” palette which was discovered in 1988 and resides in the Egyptian Museum.
