Talk:Sitamun

message: There is doubt that this relief which was found in the mortuary temple of Amenhotep II is actually the princess-queen discussed here. Johnson mentions in Amenhotep III: Perspectives on His Reign (edited by David O'Connor) that the style of the relief suggests a date before the reign of Amenhotep III. It has been suggested by Farsen that Amenhotep III may have usurped the image for his daughter. From Die verstärkten Beziehungen zwischen Ägypten und der Ägäis unter Amenophis III by Patrick Farsen and referring to an article by J Samson from 1972. This should probably be mentioned in the article if the relief is used as an illustration? --AB (talk) 11:46, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Chou Chun-hsun

message: In the west, and in his native Taiwan, his name is rendered "Chun-Hsun Chou" or similar. I believe the spelling "Jun-Xun Zhou" is preferred in mainland China. My best information on this is from a Japanese correspondent:
*"Chun-Hsun Chou" is Taiwan rendering and "Jun-Xun Zhou" is Chinese one.
*Then, the question is why "Jun-Xun Zhou" is used in the web site http://go.nutn.edu.tw/2009/English/result_eng.htm.  It's possibly due to current goverment, which is friendly with China.  It was reported that they agreed to unify those renderings to Chinese way last March.  This kind of things, however, will take quite long time to complete and may change in future.
*A member of CGF (Computer Go Forum Japan) suggested me to use the randering in his passport, "CHOU Chunhson" (family name first). He knows that because he is a staff of Fujitsu Cup.
*Finally, all what I can do now is to propose three candidates:
**(1) Chun-Hsun Chou,
**(2) Jun-Xun Zhou, or
**(3) CHOU Chunhson.
* I believe (1) is better but not enough to prefer.
I think there is a case for renaming this article to "Chou Chun-Hsun". Maproom (talk) 09:12, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

message: Perhaps someone can find sources that are not from an anonymous blog.  Below is some code that I had included that made use of a source from the Peoples Daily & Fang Zhouzi's blog, before the deletions to adhere to BLP policy.
===Begin code===
Zhu won praise for immediately placing the case in hands of the authorities at Fudan University where he obtained his Ph.D. But after half a year, on 12th, Jan, 2011, the Committee of Academic Standards at Fudan University declared that though Zhu's dissertation is "flawed", the accusation of plagiarism cannot be justified. This conclusion arose many dissatisfaction and critics in academic circle and on internet. The Committee is suspected to have covered up for Zhu for their personal friendship with Zhu.</nowiki>A famous scientist and essayist, Dr. Fang Shimin (better known as Fang Zhouzi(:zh:方舟子)) declared that "even a pupil would tell that Zhu has plagiarised".

For the curious it can be mentioned here on the talk page, that a removed sentence apparently correctly stated that Ziad is no certified interpreter or translator of any of his 57/58 languages.
By the way, I would appreciate if you and the other anonymous IP addresses avoided phrases like "creep", "retarded", "monkey-like imbeciles" and "Go back to primary school". They are not very constructive. Mlewan (talk) 19:18, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

replies: text:  It's unlikely. Aside from Orion (Sah), the Egyptians didn't draw the same constellations in the sky as the Greeks did. Many of the constellations they drew haven't been definitively matched with the stars. There's even a lion constellation in a sphinx position that's widely assumed to be Leo but (if what I read somewhere or other is correct) the two don't actually match. Making sense of ancient Egyptian astronomy is difficult. A. Parrot (talk) 01:28, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:  Ah yes, I remember now that I had heard the Dendre Zodiad had a bird headed person where Ophichus usually is, but I was never able to verify that either.  Even Sah isn't entirely the same as Orion since Sah isn't a hunter.--JaredMithrandir (talk) 16:29, 4 May 2017 (UTC)

thread_title: Information needed on Tokko's use of torture

message: "Prisoners were forced to write accounts of how they had become involved with "dangerous ideologies", rewriting these essays until their interrogators were happy with the work. These works then were used to prove their criminal involvement."
My understanding of the situation is that it is similar to the essays that foreigners are sometimes currently forced to write if they do something that the Police deem sufficient to warrent a caution. These essays are written in only Japanese and not translated for the person expected to copy them out, since the person has not been arrested representation need not be in attendance and in most reported experiences I have learned of the person does not resist writing out these "statements" as it avoids greater possible sanctions including the potential to violate their VISA requirements and be returned to their home country. The statements are generally known to be admission of guilt and grovelling apology statements though I've not heard of any cases where they have later been used as primary evidence in convictions - they may be inadmissible anyway due to the person not understanding sufficient Japanese to understand what they are doing. Certainly some steps in the direction of fairer trials.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 42.125.41.18 (talk) 17:36, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

thread_title: Requested move

message: The creature representing Taweret has a lot of features similar to that of the bear. Budge refers to the goddess as Taurit. The Egyptian "Ta urit" could also mean "land of the dead". An Eye of Horus (the Moon) is also referred to as Urit. The depiction is consistent with a powerful nocturnal creature such as the bear which is also know to hibernate. The life-death-rebirth cycle of the Phrygian counterpart Cybele supports this interpretation. And the feminine form of the Latin word for the bear is ursa which has a similar root.--Jbergquist (talk) 08:44, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: This is a good and intriguing question! However, the definitive answer is no. Depictions of the goddess in this form are known from dynastic Egypt (before 3000 BCE), so it is unlikely that she is borrowed from a Phrygian or Latin tradition. The name "Weret" (or "Urit," as Budge normalizes it) is common for many things in ancient Egyptian because it literally means "that which is great." Bears were likely not well-known to the Egyptians, as they are not native to Egypt and it is unlikely that the Egyptians would have had widespread exposure to these creatures. However, hippopotami were certainly native to the Nile River, and this is the basic form that Taweret takes. If she appears with some mammal attributes, they are those of a lioness, as Taweret's fearsome nature linked her to other protective goddesses (primarily feline in form) like Sekhmet.
