History
The first contact between the two people
dates back nearly seven thousand years
ago when the ancient Egyptians
launched their earliest recorded
expedition to the Land of Punt under
Sahure of the Fifth Dynasty although
Punt gold dates back to even earlier
times during the rule of King Khufu of the
Fourth Dynasty. Ancient Egyptians called
this place Ta-neter (The Gods' Land) and
viewed it as a mysterious and unknown
land of great fortune. They frequently
engaged in trade expeditions with their
partners in Punt where they acquired
gold, incense, ebony, ivory, slaves, exotic
animals and skins.[2]
