217 Words1 Pages
Narmer’s impact on unified Egypt was established in the period of 32 century B.C.. King Narmer, a significant but less familiar/popular king, lived and ruled long before Ramesses the great and King Tut. Some of the earliest hieroglyphic text and the display of what would become a generally accepted standard of Egyptian art, is the piece known as the “Palette of Narmer”. This great piece of art is significant to Egypt’s past and also documented as an important moment for Egyptian politics; the merge of upper and lower Egypt. On the two-sided sculpture, there is a king displayed on both sides. Although the king looks like the same person, the bowling pin crown from upper Egypt is worn on one side and the red cobra crown is worn on the other side.
