Conclusion: A slightly different reality for women to men in Ancient egypt. There is almost a logarithmic climb and logarithmic drop in female cultural development. That spike exceeds the greates cultural growth achieved by men in the middle kingdom and lines up with about the beginning of that middle civilization surge pretty much tanking immediatly in a logarithmic curve to the end of the middle kingdom before crashing at 3%. Only a small blip through the late kingdom period similar to its levels during the first kingdom. And then it drops away with the end of the ancient egyptians.


Cultural Development Rate v. % fully literate population


Its pretty telling. While their cultural growth is fundamental to the success of the middle kingdom's epic climb, they undergo a logarithmic cultural suppression which contributes to the tanking of the male cultural development that spells doom for egyptian civilization. Even the effects of the Great Pyramid are short lived as they correct to the collapse of female culture.

What happened at the beginning of the middle egyptian period that crashed frmale cultural creativity? Religion?
