Conclusion: Aa (63%), An (42%) are the early ancestors of all ancient Egyptians. They are obviously part of some other peoples at this point. Developing alphabet represents improving communication skills.

36%-26% is the rise and fall of the earliest Ancient Egyptian culture.

The 25% fully literate - 9% fully literate period represents the period of greatest Ancient Egyptian cultural growth, and we see Khufu (considered the builder of the Great Pyramid) in the 9% fully-literate period meaning the construction of the Great Pyramid represents the end of their Ancient egyptian civilization, not its peak. It is a memorial to its fall as fully literate population drops from 25% to 9% and continues down...

6%-5% marks another collapse in the cultural development rate followed by a final cultural peak at 4% with fifteen new names representing the final Ancient Egyptian cultural peak, But it all again drops away at 2% full literacy down through 1% to a <1% fully literate population.

And just like that... they are gone.


Cultural Development Rate v. % fully literate population

And that kiddies is why full literacy of every citizen is important.

This changes our understanding of the History of Egypt...

Pyramid        Construction
'Djoser'      2670BC - 2650BC
Khufu        2580BC - 2560BC

The Great Pyramid will now predate the Djoser pyramid unless the Djoser pyramid was built for some other much earlier Pharaoh and stolen for Djoser. Im-hotep is unlikely to be the architect of the Djoser pyramid unless it is built for an earlier pharoah prior to Khufu's great pyramid.

*jā-im-ḥātap is a more modern name for Im-hotep as the Architect coming in at the Djoser level of 4% fully literate population... as opposed to the 10% Pre-Khufu Im-hotep.

If the Djoser pyramid was built for Djoser, then it was way after the Great Pyramid-with less skill. But if it predates the Great Pyramid, it was built for someone whose name is not Djoser.

Meanwhile the collapse of female cultural development crashes everything...
