Also “in terms of interpretation, the long-term solvency ratio should be at least 1.0 but as a general rule, the higher the ratio the better the organization is doing” (Martin, 2001). The ratio for 2002, 2003 and 2004 is less than the average which means that they have nothing to liquidate. If the ratio of a nonprofit organization is less than 1.0, the organizations financial feasibility might be in question. The organization in 2002, 2003 and 2004 is doing pretty good. There is no question…

crocodiles and accordingly they were kept in uncommon rooms, lakes or slows down. Any affront to creatures was deserving of death. Every nome had its own particular divine beings, yet there were different gods acknowledged all through the nation: Gore, Ra, Osiris, Isis, and others. Thus, Egyptians related myths about the divine beings with the wonders of nature, the real seasons, the flooding of the Nile…

On December 9th, 2016, I visited the Egyptian Section of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. There, I discovered many ancient Egyptian artworks and artifacts, ranging in date from the Paleolithic era all the way to 4th century A.D- with special focus on the Middle and New Kingdoms. Two of the biggest and most memorable artworks were the Tomb of Perneb, and the Temple of Dendur. The Egyptian collection depicted what life was like in Ancient Egypt- what the people chose to engrave onto stone, what…

The ancient Egyptian and ancient Greek civilizations are two of the oldest known civilizations in history. It is believed that the ancient Egyptian civilization, based in eastern North Africa, started around 3150 B.C., and survived until 31 B.C. Slightly younger is the ancient Greek civilization, making its mark in history around 1100 B.C. and lasting until 146 B.C.

loved one would make it into the afterlife. The spirit would be judged by forty-two spiritual assessors as he pleaded his case of living a righteous life on earth. Then his heart would be weighed against a feather by the king of the nether world, Osiris. If this proved his or her righteousness, he or she would be allowed to enter the afterworld. If the heart was too heavy, it would have to roam the earth for…

Ancient Egypt is widely known across the US as having creepy tombs with riches and treasures, along with spooky mummies and curses. This is unusual to many historians because other ancient cultures, such as the many dynasties of Ancient China, the Sumerians, and the Mayans aren’t as well known as the Ancient Egyptians. The majority of people are unaware of the Yellow River in China, rather they are more familiar with the Nile River in Egypt. The Egyptian’s had a more significant culture than any…

Following times of turmoil within a nation there is always an underlying mood of hope that lives within the population which despite its presence, may not always be visible or on display for the world to see. The hope that exists is generally born out of the dreams that people have which take them away from the troubles of their lives at that time. This pattern can be seen many times in the history of the world via the art and novels that are produced by peoples of nations going through…

Both the ancient civilizations of Rome and Egypt have different characteristic that make their countries the most powerful of their time. Egypt although in a desert used the Nile River to grow bigger and Rome used the warm Mediterranean weather and the Italian peninsula to grow bigger too. These characteristics can be in how they lived their life or how they flourished in their different landscape. I learned that both Egypt and Rome worked with each other even after the Romans took control of…

“Living Horus”, she was a very important goddess. She is also worshiped by religions today, such as the Pagan religion. Horus (The One Far Above) was the god of the sky. He was well-known as the protector of the ruler of Egypt. Horus’s father (Osiris) was murdered by his brother Seth. He fought Seth for the throne, and during this fight, he lost his eye. His eye was then restored to him and he was chosen to become the ruler of the world of the living. The Pagan religion still worship him…

While it is difficult to precisely date “The Adventures of Setna and Si-Osire (Setna II),” this copy appears to have been produced in the mid First Century CE, during the reign of the Emperor Claudius. This historical context provides a deeper layer of meaning and a degree of explanation as to some aspects of the narrative. Though this text was likely written in the first Century AD, shortly after the Roman annexation of Egypt (470), the narrative takes place over 1,200 years earlier, during the…
