Talk:Nectanebo II

Untitled
I'm no expert but this article doesn't mention what his prenomen is; you have to go to the page on the thirtieth dynasty for that. Isn't that bad form? Stevekl 16:17, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Having sleped?Sex with Olympus
I did not know the Eghptian king had Sex with Olympias,(mother of Alexander who had sex with Philip of Macadon and was also said to have sex with Alexander and his girlfriend and raped Alexanders befriend).Dressed out as Amun What was the child called after being born form this sexual intercouse?I would love to know more about the Sex and what was done during it

I am assuming you're not a native English speaker and therefore missed the intent of describing that episode. The Egyptians disliked foreign rule, so the intent of the tale was to make Alexander a legitimate heir to the throne of Egypt as the son of Nectanebo-Ammun and Olympias. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.233.71.222 (talk) 04:37, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

Reference
The reference to H. R. Hall. "Cambridge's Ancient History of Greece" does not do to much good; it's lacking year, which volume, and the link goes to some not related advertisment. --Finn Bjørklid (talk) 22:09, 14 September 2018 (UTC)

Portraits
The page for the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston doesn't mention a head of this pharaoh, granite or otherwise, but the page for the Museum of Fine Arts, Lyon mentions the green sandstone head shown in the Infobox. It seems likely that this is the museum that has the pharaoh's head. Can someone verify whether there are 2 heads or 1, where they are, and their material?Mikenlesley (talk) 02:35, 2 April 2020 (UTC)

Thoth was thrice-great, not twice
The black siltstone obelisk is captioned saying Thoth was twice-great, when everybody knows it was thrice.

Indeed, even viewing more details on the image, the true caption is "thrice-great". 98.97.119.103 (talk) 17:13, 31 May 2023 (UTC)
