It would've been interesting if the Amarna letters were mentioned in this movie.

@CHINEKEDIIGWEADAMMA I think it was syphilis; at the time there was no cure for leprosy and syphilis can be cured, but the damage can't be done.

Im thinking it was syphilis that Nefer had.

the egyptians were people of color ranging from olive to deep mahogany skin tones due to the climate that they were in only really wealthy people were lighter in complexion because they were not in the sun as much and egypt is in african so the egyptians were african check a globe

[gladrock]

Are these Egyptians or Europeans...haha! White people rule!!

[Esperu2008]

@gladrock the thing is .. "the real" people who made this story weren't Europeans or white... Europeans were wild (not civilized) when this was happening ;)

[mesrlover1]

@gladrock Actually, the ancient Egyptians were white & brown like the contemporary ones. Look at Nefertiti in Berlin museum.

In the book, as in real life, there is no such thing as poetic justice.

[specterman2000]

I'm willing to be Nefer had leprosy! Talk about poetic justice! She got what she deserved and Sinuhe just couldn't kick her while she was down.
