I watched a Discovery program that found an ancient and powerful African Kingdom that for a long time threatened Egyption dominion and at one point even RULED Eygypt for a few hundread years before the New reign of the Old Kings. The even more amazing thing about this story as it unfolded was the person who conquored Egypt and passed down the power was a WOMAN. Truth. She was equal in power to all the men and even went out on the campaigns. Could be the beggining of the stories of the Amazons since Greece was yet to become a superpower. Anyway, the woman they got to portray (in recreations) looked similar to this woman. She was powerful and held a strong bearing and quite quite regal.

African Queen, she's beautiful Donna Jean.
