Answer:
c. type of crown
Explanation:
Ancient Egypt was divided into two regions: Lower Egypt, which referred to the region of the Nile Delta in the North of the country, and Upper Egypt, which was the Southern region of Egypt. In paintings and hieroglyphs, each region was symbolized by a certain type of crown.
<u>Upper Egypt</u> was represented by the <u>white crown</u>, named <em>hedyet</em>, associated with the god Seth.
<u>Lower Egypt</u> was symbolized with the <u>red crown</u>, named <em>desheret</em>, associated with the god Horus.
When the Upper and Lower Egypt unified, at the beginning of the first dynasty, the red and white crowns were unified into a single crown, known as the double crown, the main symbol of the pharaohs as kings of the Upper and Lower Egypt.
