Dear Diary, My name is Chione, and I am a female slave in Ancient Egypt. I have decided to write this diary, so that future people know what it is like to be a female slave at this time. Most slaves are men, like my dear loving husband, and we both agreed to become slaves because we were poor. I can’t write nor read, therefore I am poorly educated. That is why I had to get my best friend Ehab who is a scribe to write this diary for me. Usually, you must pay scribes, but fortunately, because of our friendship, it is free of charge! I am so glad for that! Firstly, I was captured in the battle of Kadesh, it was super terrifying there were arrows, spears, there were chariots storming past us, then I got hit in the head and that’s all I can remember.
