EGYPTIAN CROWNS

THE RED WHITE AND BLUE PATTERN





White Crown or Hedjet represented Upper Egypt = the Southern Kingdom



White represents the pattern for the Southern Kingdom of Egypt, and also for the Southern Kingdom of Judah





Red Crown or Deshret represented Lower Egypt = Northern Kingdom



Red represents the pattern for the Northern Kingdom of Egypt, and also for Northern Kingdom of Israelites, i.e. Ephraim









The Red & White Double Crown [Pschent] represented the Upper and Lower Kingdoms of Egypt as a UNITED Kingdom. This pattern carries over into the modern-day combination of the Red & White colors representing the United Israelites as seen in the United States & United Kingdom [see flags below]



With the unification of Upper and Lower Egypt, the red crown and the white crown were combined to become the double crown, known as the "Two Mighty Ones" i.e. 'Two horns of a Unicorn'.





BLUE Quintessential Royal Crown [Khepresh] [mistakenly called the War Crown]

Crown of Quintessence : The essence of a thing in its purest and most concentrated form worn by , i.e. the King of UNITED ISRAEL

The Blue Crown (the Khepresh) was a blue cloth or leather headdress decorated with bronze or gold discs. The Blue Crown was worn in battles, as well as on ceremonial occasions.
