The files of the state were placed on papyrus or Ostraka in the Hieratic script and then in the demotic line. They were stored in the state offices and in the archives section of the temple. These files were great and varied, and consisted of interest reports and memoirs, population lists, land plots, taxes, The quantities of stones to be paid to builders, the timber required for the role of the shipbuilding industry, the details and pictures of speeches received from the public and their complaints, the notes of the superiors, disciplinary sanctions papers, etc.
The numbers were arranged in headers or columns, and red notes were written with abbreviated symbols and markers to prevent repetition - the English word paper that the paper came from.
The administration of the pharaohs oversaw all matters of life and controlled life in the court. The entire economy was organized in the name of the pharaoh, the supreme ruler, so the administration was wide with an organized group of priests to supervise the various sections (fields, herds, grain stores, Ships, army, borders, foreign relations, trade missions, justice, prisons, health).
The administrative offices of the King were based in their work in each administrative district on a gradual group of local staff, or the local bureaucracy headed by a governor. The temples and wealthy property owners had their own management, sometimes run by the royal authorities, which ran counter to those authorities. Other times.
The difficulty of studying these titles and their diversity in the inscriptions that decorate the graves of the staff is evident. This is not more evident than the reading of the titles of an employee mentioned in two terms, and the fact that there is no profession or function in that society is mentioned, either in the royal administration or in the administration The Temples, they had a supervisor of the royal orchards, and the Secretary of the Amuse of Oz.
The old government has followed the system of centralism, and it seems that the Egyptians have not made a clear distinction between the king's personal service in his palace and the service of the state.
In the Central State, the central system was less perfect. The new administration was founded by the princes of the First Middle Ages. In the modern state, the invasions of colonialism, the permanent army and the property of the temples resulted in a more complicated system, which included many administrative improvements.
It is more difficult to understand the administrative methods clearly that the king from one to another was sent in the important matters of a reliable servant and not the appropriate ordinary employee, with a grant absolute authority.
Minister Thati was the royal envoy who headed the administration, and when the pharaoh was imitating that position he used to say to him, "Take this minister's post and watch everything about him."
Thanks to what Egypt enjoyed with that high-end civilization and great prosperity, it was thanks to the invention of management in a very early age like that era.
The bureaucracy and the greatness of pharaoh Elven did not differentiate. When the grip of the royal administration on the people and their property was weakened, Egypt became a victim of civil war, famine and foreign invasion, and when that administration was strong, the pyramids were built, the grain stores were filled and the empire flourished.
