Egyptian Red crown & White crown | During 246BCE Egypt was cut into 2 cities. Modern day Cairo and Thebes. Cairo was “white crown of upper Egypt” (questioned the gods)and Thebes was “red crown of lower Egypt” (worshiped war gods) if a ruler wore a red and white crown in hieroglyphics it was called “sekhemty” the two powerful ones. Whoever united Egypt (with or without violence) would rule undoubtedly.
