The "God-Kings of Egypt" refers to the ancient rulers known as pharaohs, who were believed to be divine figures. They held immense power and were seen as intermediaries between the gods and the people. Each pharaoh was often associated with a specific deity, such as Ra, the sun god, and was responsible for maintaining ma'at, or cosmic order, through their leadership. Pharaohs were not only political leaders but also religious figures. They built grand temples and monuments, like the Pyramids of Giza, to honor the gods and ensure their own immortality. After death, they were often mummified and buried with treasures, reflecting their belief in an afterlife where they would continue to rule.
