Music and dance were essential aspects of Ancient Egyptian culture, deeply intertwined with their religious practices, social events, and daily life.
Music was present in temples, palaces, workshops, farms, battlefields, and tombs. It played a crucial role in religious worship and was an integral part of various ceremonies and festival. Women served as singers, dancers, and musicians in religious cults, especially that of the goddess Hathor. They entertained deities and played a prominent role in religious ceremonies
The depiction of music girls in art also had an aesthetic value, adding to the richness and diversity of the scenes portrayed in tombs and temples. These images provided a glimpse into the attire, instruments, and practices of the time, contributing to our understanding of Ancient Egyptian music and dance.
It is interesting to note that the exact sound and music notation of Ancient Egyptian music are not known, as they did not notate their music before the Graeco-Roman period. Therefore, the reconstruction of pharaonic music remains speculative.
