5 pages in length. Women's vanity is a social ill that has existed as long as the female has walked this earth. To think the twentieth century reflects the most vigorous and invasive types of body art is to overlook the Ancient Egyptian trendsetters who set in motion several practices that remain as prominent now as they did thousands of years ago. The female form has long challenged the aspect of beauty, with myriad global cultures applying the tenets of attractiveness as they believe them to exist. For the Ancient Egyptians, physical transformation in the form of body art meant more than mere outward enhancement; rather, hennas, tattoos and other implements of improvement had significant traditional implications.

[ send me this paper ]
This 8 page paper provides an overview of this issue. The communities of Ancient Egypt from the 1st to the 18th dynasties were highly defined by an emerging sense of public representations of religion. Prior to the 1st dynasty, approximately 4000 B. C., religion was not an imperative component of the public administration of communities, but this changed around 3050 BC, and resulted in the progression of established religious practices and religious ideals that were prevalent for the next 17 dynasties. Though substantial changes occurred over the span of the time between the 1st and 18th dynasties, the resulting views of religion relative to the progression of Egyptian society demonstrates the importance of the base of religion in the 1st dynasty.
