Good post Adelcrow and so true except one point.
Only one Egyptian, Ramses II, lived to a very old age - 130 years.
Which is why that, although a coward in the face of battle, he turned Egypt into a powerful propaganda nation with his 'artistic' endeavours of Monuments, Structures, etc that he lived long enough to see complete - his old age only confirmed his 'godlike' immortality to the common peoples. Typical Ranga!
(found adrift on the Nile as a bubby long before Moses)
What Mr Light suggests in regards to the position of a Pharoah is godswallop giggly-goggly. Most were inbreeds, hence the shape of some of the Crowns (Ramses was a Ranga from somewhere else?). Most Pharoahs lived no longer than the common lifespan. Even the Black Pharoahs from Nubia didn't live much longer than the norm.
Cancers are a product of our 'extended' lifespan and although some bits, like Prostate Glands, can't keep up the pace and thus self-destruct with Cancer ....a fair whack of Cancer is also due to Processed Foods, and Environmental Pollution. A person in the city who goes 'jogging' every morning will have (via surgical autopsy) 'sooty' lungs just as bad as a heavy smokers.
I noticed the difference when I breathed in the good stuff driving along the road leading to Mt Taranaki-Egmont, where giant hedges upon either side pumped out the freshest of airs I've ever experienced (and I've been around the Himalaya too) - then you return to Sydney at it just smells/tastes like filth! Take into account that I regularly breath in 32% O2 when diving too. There is a difference of quality.
There are many roads that lead to Cancer ...and as you look out from the mountains, you can see the 'Cancer' sprawling across the Sydney Basin, which 'could have been' an area that would have bettered the Nile Delta in regards to Farming to Aqua-Farming output ...now its just another Asian breeding pen.
Nipponese have the highest rate of Bowel or Stomach Cancers in the world ...possibly due to the way their language is structured: they talk Nipponese as if they are 'constipated'.
