About
Sinuhe departs Egypt following the death of his sovereign, Pharaoh Amenemhat I. After almost passing away due to thirst in the desert, Sinuhe is rescued by Asiatics. He befriends a prince in Upper Retjenu named Amunenshi. After winning a combat duel with the Strongman of Retjenu, Sinuhe gains glory, riches, and builds a family. Following several communications with the new sovereign of Egypt, Senwosret I, Sinuhe returns home to be buried in old age.
