The Pharaoh[a] is term that denotes monarch of ancient Egypt. The title is derived from word pr ꜥꜣ ("Great House") that initially was used as description of Royal Palace as an institution.
Pharaohs were kings of ancient Egypt. Though the term pharaoh referring to the king was not used in ancient Egypt until the New Kingdom period (c. 1539–c. 1077 bce), it is now used for all kings of ancient Egypt on the basis of its use in the Hebrew Bible.
Early ancient Egypt was ruled by kings, and only from the New Kingdom period (c. 1570 - c. 1069 BCE) did the title of ' pharaoh ' appear. Considered a god on earth and the supreme ruler of his people, a pharaoh was one of the most powerful rulers of any ancient civilization.
Pharaohs were the heads of state and religious leaders of ancient Egypt.
The word Pharaoh is indeed rooted in authentic Ancient Egyptian language: it simply evolved in meaning over time, and later took on the form we know today. “Pharaoh” is the modern, Greek-derived form of the original Ancient Egyptian term 𓉐𓉻 (pr-ˁˁ), pronounced “per-ah” (or “pair-ah”)
Pharaohs were the god kings of ancient Egypt who ruled between 3150 B.C. and 30 B.C. (when Rome conquered Egypt). Each time a new family took control of the throne, a new kingdom began in the history of this fascinating nation.
The pharaoh was Egypt's supreme ruler, governing by royal decree through his vizier over a system of 42 districts or nomes. In spiritual affairs, the pharaohs were generally believed to be the incarnations of the god Horus during their lives and became one with Osiris in death.
