WHEN KINGS WERE KINGS In the civilization of an- cient Egypt, during the period of the Old Kingdom, all of so- ciety and the whole structure of the state was built around the monarch, He was regard- ed as a god incarnate, to be worshipped in life and after death. All power rested in his hands. In theory at least, he owned all land and property. He was the sole priest of the gods and the single judge of the people. In practice, of course, most of his power had to be delegated to a host of officials. THESE FOOD VALUES ARE PICNIC SHOULDER �za MAPLE LEAF COTTAGE ROLL ENCOREDETERGENT BEAUTY SOAP REG.
