Names

[edit]

Ta-seti wasn't the name of Nubia too? I remember reading somewhere that Nubia (or at least lower Nubia) and Upper Egypt, before the unification by Narmer, were one and the same. But I could be wrong. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kleistinos (talkcontribs) 16:58, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Dimensions of the District/Nome

[edit]

The measurements in the article appear to be incorrect. I do not know the correct measurements, however, 5.5 hectares is not equivalent to 4.8 acres. A better conversion would be approximately 13.5 acres; the other conversion is equally skewed. Additionally, if the nome was more than 69 miles long, than in order to be even 13.5 acres, it would have to be less than 2 feet wide. Considering, that as a simple matter of common sense it is unlikely that the district was a mere 2 feet wide, these numbers are not compatible and at least one of them is likely incorrect.

Additionally, the source cited for this section of measurements only provides information on the size of the various measures, nowhere does it provide information on the specific dimensions of this district of Ta-Seti. Darthsnowball (talk) 04:19, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
