Menes is believed to be the first to forge the Upper and Lower Nile territories into an empire.<br /><br />Menes was a native of the Thinite province in Upper Egypt. Monuments belonging to Narmer and Ahauiti, either of whom may be Menes, have been excavated at Abydos, a royal cemetery in the Thinite nome (Tjenu). The earliest evidence of Tjenu as a ruled territory dates to 4000 B.C., the time when the Horite citadel of Nekhen in Sudan was thriving. The Narmer palette was unearthed at Nekhen.Alice C.
