 Egypt Nile Cruises

Vacations trips to egypt | Egypt Tours

  A first time visitor to Egypt who wants a classical (pharaonic antiquities) experience would do well to book a Nile cruise. Of course modern airlines shuttle tourists to the southern region of Egypt, but historically the Nile cruise was really the only way to visit the temples and tombs located along this stretch of the river. It is still a popular means of visiting upper Egypt and has many advantages to other means of travel.

Love and Marriage in Ancient Egypt

 

Many marriages were arranged with parental consent especially among the upper classes but many couples did fall in love and choose each other as mates.
one of the most affectionate titles you could call your was "brother" or "sister", This has nothing to do with sibling relations,but led many archeologists and scholars to wrongly assume that most ancient egyptians married their siblings.
Actully this usually occurred only among royalty and was not a common occurrence.
Museums are filled with statues and paintings of husbands and wives showing love and affection.
The marriage settlements, most marriages had a contract drawn up between the partirs, the poorer classes probably did not do this becouse they probably had few possessions to consider and also the cost of a scribe would have been prohibitive.
Marriage settlements were drawn up between a woman's father and her prospective husband with the purpose of establishing the rights of both parties to maintenance and possessions during the marriage and after divorce if it should occur.
A standard marriage contract contained:
- The date (the year of the reign of the ruling monarch).
- The contractors (future husband and wife)
- The names of parents.
- Husband's profession.
- The scribe who drew up the contract.
- The names of the witnessess.
- The details of the settlement.
The document was given to a third party for safekeeping or kept among the records of the local temple.
The wedding day was really simple,the bride merely moved her belongings into the home of her husband whether living alone or with his parents. the bride wore a long dress of tunic made of linen, which may have been covered from head to toe with bead-net.If she oened any gold,silver or lapis,who probably adorned herself with those too.
There were family celebration honor of the uniting couple with music,dance & food served.
Divorce, If it didn't work,divorce could be brought by either party, it was a private matter and the government took no interest in it, the common reasons for a man to divorce his wife include the inability of wife to bear children, the desire of the husband to marry someone else.
A woman could divorce her husband for mental or physical cruelty or adultery, in some cases if a woman chose to divorce, she forfeited her right to communal property, Once divorced both men & woman could marry as soon as they wished.
