I read, “Amenemhat II,” as, “Amendment II,” and almost put, “Banglist,” in the keywords.

Always wondered what Amen was doing in a hat.
And if you're wondering where Fay Rowe is today...cf. here.

OK, I’ll be Sirius. “Rogue Egyptologist” David Rohl is convinced Amenemhat III is the Pharaoh of Joseph, meaning Joseph was his vizier, perhaps the one named Kheti who shows up fairly late in AIII’s reign.

The set of cutting and polishing tools interests me more than the mummys tombs.
As far as I know, precious few tools from ancient Egypt have been found. Cutting and polishing all those blcks of diurite are the most mysterious part of the culture of Ancient times. I suspect many were handed down from father to son until they wore out, but the huge sarcogaphies of the Serapheum would require some really special tools.
