Winged Pharaoh

Winged Pharaoh is a historical novel by English writer Joan Grant, first published in 1937.

Most of the story takes place in the city of 'Me'n-atetiss', Memphis, Egypt, founded by Sekeeta's ancestor 'Meniss' (Menes).

All members of the royal family are routinely trained in the use of extrasensory abilities and taught a doctrine of esoteric discipline, reincarnation and karma.

Sekeeta rides a chariot into battle and engages in hand-to-hand combat to defend Egypt from invasion by the people of 'Zuma' (Sumer, which we are told is the land of the forerunners of the Babylonians), at the 'Amphitheatre of Grain', now the site of Tell el-Amarna.

Sekeeta lives to an advanced age, dies, and is buried in Abidwa, the modern Abydos, Egypt.
