Lives of Kings

Stone bust of Ramses II at the British Museum.

Often regarded as the greatest, most celebrated, and most powerful pharaoh of the new kingdom.

A prosperous time, but hard won against other rival races of people. So wars were constant.

What would these ancients think of our lives now?

Life expectancy in those days for males was only around 22.5-25 years and at 35-37 years for females.
