WikiProject Ancient Egypt to-do list: Needed articles. We should have an article on every pyramid and every nome in Ancient Egypt. I'm sure the rest of us can think of other articles we should have. Cleanup. To start with, most of the general history articles badly need attention. And I'm told that at least some of the dynasty articles need work. Any other candidates? Standardize the Chronology. A boring task, but the benefit of doing it is that you can set the dates !(e.g., why say Khufu lived 2589-2566? As long as you keep the length of his reign correct, or cite a respected source, you can date it 2590-2567 or 2585-2563) Stub sorting Anyone? I consider this probably the most unimportant of tasks on Wikipedia, but if you believe it needs to be done . . . Data sorting. This is a project I'd like to take on some day, & could be applied to more of Wikipedia than just Ancient Egypt. Take one of the standard authorities of history or culture -- Herotodus, the Elder Pliny, the writings of Breasted or Kenneth Kitchen, & see if you can't smoothly merge quotations or information into relevant articles. Probably a good exercise for someone who owns one of those impressive texts, yet can't get access to a research library.

I find it surprising that not more weight is given to the homonymity between Puntland and the Land of Punt. On Queen Hatsheput's temple relief, a Queen Ati of Punt (Pwenet) is depicted, with uncommonly big buttocks. It would suggest in any case an African origin for this queen. The relief describes quite a long sea voyage, which makes it likely Hatsheput's expedition left the Red Sea and entered the Sea of Berbera, previously called Erythrean Sea. Legends and folklore in Northern Somalia (Somaliland and Puntland) speaks of Queen Arawelo from the Sanaag region that straddles both regions. In the different versions of the legend, a matriarchy is mentioned. Again, this points to Puntland/Sanaag as a likely location for the Land of Pwenet described in Hatsheput's annals. On the other hand, since the evidence obtained from analysing baboon hairs is contradictory, why not remove it entirely from this article? It also assumes that baboon populations have remained static over thousands of years; on what basis? My suggestion is therefore to emphasize that Puntland is the most likely location for the ancient land of Punt, while alluding to the debates - but perhaps in shorter form.
