Great stuff, love Asterix! 
Is it possible to link to a picture of the statues with big ears?
Oh, and is it 12th Dynasry, or 12th Dynastry?
Nice read Gnomon, thank you

Matt, here's a picture of one of the statues with big ears:

But I don't like linking to pages that are just a picture. I'm still searching for a proper web-page with a picture of the king near the top.

Very good entry Gnomon. I hope I'm fencing with shadows here, but are you sure that the *translation* of the passage by Herodotus at the end is not copyright?

I am sure that the translation of the Herodotus is not copyright. I got it from Gutenberg and they are very careful about such things.
I've added a link to a site with a picture of Amenemhat on the phrase "serious-looking man".
