Pharaoh
n.
ruler of ancient Egypt
Pharaoh
Pharaoh was the
ancient Egyptian name for the office of kingship. The term began as a reference to the king's palace, but the meaning loosened over the course of Egyptian history until in the late period it was interchangeable with the Egyptian word for king. Contrary to many languages, the same word was used for any ruler of Egypt, female or male. Such rulers were believed to be the incarnation of
Horus.
