What more do you need? A cartouche proves everything. Geesh Ori, lower your standards
By the same token, we should also believe Zeus, Poseidon, Athena, Apollo were real people. If it's written, it must be so! So what if their feats were exaggerated..... details.
And we should also believe the rest of the Turin list, why throw out the good part. There were 23,200 years of ruling kings before Menes. They believe the rest of Turin, why not this part? Don't tell me the Turin papyrus is lying. Don't tell me they were liars. I don't want to have to put that in bold
And it is written in the Sumerian King list; kingdoms lasting 241,000 years before "the flood swept over". It's written, the Sumerians said so, it must be true.
