King Amenemhat's instructions to his son Senwosret I. Well OK, he didn't actually write it himself. He describes that you can't trust anyone, and then goes on to describe how he was killed by someone that he knew. Check out the cool hieroglyphs. They are particularly clear on this image (well, I wish the photos were posted with higher resolution, but if I want to see it more clearly I suppose I will have to visit the British Museum.) |
