WikiProject Ancient Egypt to-do list:

Needed articles.

We should have an article on every pyramid and every nome in Ancient Egypt. I'm sure the rest of us can think of other articles we should have.

Cleanup.

To start with, most of the general history articles badly need attention. And I'm told that at least some of the dynasty articles need work. Any other candidates?

Standardize the Chronology.

A boring task, but the benefit of doing it is that you can set the dates !(e.g., why say Khufu lived 2589-2566? As long as you keep the length of his reign correct, or cite a respected source, you can date it 2590-2567 or 2585-2563)

Stub sorting

Anyone? I consider this probably the most unimportant of tasks on Wikipedia, but if you believe it needs to be done . . .

Data sorting.

This is a project I'd like to take on some day, & could be applied to more of Wikipedia than just Ancient Egypt. Take one of the standard authorities of history or culture -- Herotodus, the Elder Pliny, the writings of Breasted or Kenneth Kitchen, & see if you can't smoothly merge quotations or information into relevant articles. Probably a good exercise for someone who owns one of those impressive texts, yet can't get access to a research library.

Question[edit]

Wondering if this month's name is connected to the pascha, in Norwegian called 'påske' - easter? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Xactnoreg (talk • contribs) 23:30, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ancient Egyptian calendar and Coptic calendar were different![edit]

Ancient Egyptian calendar and Coptic calendar were different! (but the names of the months were the same!)

Ancient Egyptian month "Pachons" = March 16 - April 14 (but this is Julian calendar) = February 15 - March 15 (Gregorian calendar)

Coptic month Pashons = May 9 - June 7

so they were different! but this makes confusion! Böri (talk) 13:13, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Nope. Exactly same month. Used to migrate, now mostly doesn't. —

Need for clarifiction of month name[edit]

The Name section says "name of the month of Pashons comes from Khonsu".

How? Nothing in this article or the Khonsu article explains how that could be; they don't seem to sound anything similar. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Drbobpgh (talk • contribs) 14:55, 24 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
