Inscription of Thutmose II

Scriptural Research Institute

Sinossi

Thutmose II was the king of Egypt between approximately 1527 and 1513 BCE, after inheriting the throne from his father Thutmose I. It is believed he was 17 years old when his father died, and he became king, however, did not partake in the expedition to Kush to suppress the rebellion that year. Little is known of Thutmose II, as he is overshadowed by his father Thutmose I, his wife Hatshepsut, and his son Thutmose III. He is believed to have died around the age of 30, and his body was found in the Deir el-Bahri Cache near the Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut. He was the son of Thutmose I by a minor wife, Mutnofret, and was, therefore, a lesser son of Thutmose I. He married his fully royal half-sister Hatshepsut to secure his kingship, and Egyptologists generally believe that Hatshepsut was the real power behind the throne during Thutmose II’s reign. After he died, she first declared herself regent of his young son Thutmose III, and then later assumed the kingship under her own name, claiming that her father Thutmose I had wanted her to be his heir. Under her rule, Egyptian policy was virtually the same as during Thutmose II’s reign, supporting the idea that she was the real power during his reign. Additionally, several raised relief scenes from a Karnak gateway dating to Thutmose II’s reign depict both of them together, while others depict her alone, as the king would usually be depicted. During her later kingship, her cartouche was depicted on the gateway at Karnak, proving she was considered a rightful king at the time, even though most evidence of her kingship was later erased under the rule of Thutmose III, who viewed her as his regent.One of the few records of Thutmose II’s reign is the Inscription of Thutmose II’s campaign into Nubia to crush the rebelling Nubians in 1527 BCE. It was discovered in the late 1800s along the road between Thebes and Philae, which was an island near the first cataract of the Nile before the creation of Lake Nasser flooded the region in the 1970s. By all accounts, Thutmose II did not participate in the campaign into Nubia, and his herald Ahmose Pen-Nekhbet did not mention the campaign in his autobiography.

Early Days Of Old Oregon

Katharine Berry Judson

Twenty-three stories of the history of early Oregon plus an appendix: A Brief Summary Of The History Of The Old Oregon Country From Original Sources. OLD OREGON was a mighty sweep of country, and a most romantic one. From the northern border of Mexican California to near Sitka in Russian America it stretched, nearly eight hundred miles. Eastward it stretched over a country of mighty mountain … until the limits of the Oregon country, at the crest of the main range of the Rockies…. The romance ever lingers…. I have given four years of devoted study to Oregon history, three of them among the special collections of the Northwest, and over a year in London. In England I had full access to the documents of the Public Record Office, including unpublished accounts of the various explorations, and also, what was a far rarer privilege, access to the journals, diaries, and letters of the Hudson's Bay Company. Simple as this book is, every statement is based on original authority. Comment on the British and American claims to the country is founded entirely upon sources. These sources include journals written by fur-traders In the mountains and on the march, private letters between themselves, official reports of chief factors to their Company in London, diplomatic correspondence of American and English diplomats, and published works, in original editions, of exploration and discovery. It has been my aim to make this volume a clear, straightforward account of the romantic discovery and settlement of Old Oregon…( Author's Preface and david wales)

Rest Is Resistance - A Manifesto

Tricia Hersey

Disrupt and push back against capitalism and white supremacy by connecting to the liberating power of rest, daydreaming, and naps as a foundation for healing and justice. Tricia Hersey, aka The Nap Bishop, encourages us to elevate rest as a form of resistance and a divine human right.What would it be like to live in a well-rested world? Far too many of us have claimed productivity as the cornerstone of success. Brainwashed by capitalism, we subject our bodies and minds to work at an unrealistic, damaging, and machine‑level pace –– feeding into the same engine that enslaved millions into brutal labor for its own relentless benefit.In Rest Is Resistance, Tricia Hersey, aka the Nap Bishop, casts an illuminating light on our troubled relationship with rest and how to imagine and dream our way to a future where rest is exalted. Our worth does not reside in how much we produce, especially not for a system that exploits and dehumanizes us. Rest, in its simplest form, becomes an act of resistance and a reclaiming of power because it asserts our most basic humanity. We are enough. The systems cannot have us.Rest Is Resistance is rooted in spiritual energy and centered in Black liberation, womanism, somatics, and Afrofuturism. With captivating storytelling and practical advice, all delivered in Hersey’s lyrical voice and informed by her deep experience in theology, activism, and performance art, Rest Is Resistance is a call to action, a battle cry, a field guide, and a manifesto for all of us who are sleep deprived, searching for justice, and longing to be liberated from the oppressive grip of Grind Culture.

Against the Grain - How Farmers...

Roger Thurow

Farmers in some of the world's oldest agricultural areas were toiling year after year, only to find that modern industrial agriculture was turning on itself. Industrial agriculture's effects on our climate and environment were multiplying and worsening, until the very families growing the world's food were starving. 
 
 
 
They terraced the land to catch more rainwater and prevent soil runoff; they planted a diverse range of vegetables that would balance the nutrients in the soil; they replaced commercial fertilizers with organic matter from their own farms; they planted more trees and drought-resistant grains; and, perhaps most importantly, they taught their communities by example that these regenerative farming methods paid off—both in nourishing their families and in bringing their land back to life. 
 
 
 
Award-winning author and journalist Roger Thurow has traveled to Ethiopia, Uganda, Kenya, India, Guatemala, Peru, and the United States to share their stories, highlighting the conflicts inherent in our most important human endeavor: feeding the world using the methods of industrial agriculture is stripping the land of its ability to feed future generations. But these farmers are starting a new kind of revolution, nourishing both humans and the land, and following their lead could help us solve one of the great crises of our time.
