Bow and arrow: The Bow and arrow was Egypt's most dangerous weapon, it was used for hunting, warfare and leisure. It was used mostly with the chariot, one man would steer the chariot as one man on the back would fire, this is the main reason that the Egyptians conquered most of the middle east, and some of Asia. The Egyptians were so advanced compared to the other countries, that they kept remodelling their bow several times. At first the bow was made of two antelope horns, with some wood in the middle, sinew was used for string, although strong the bow was not flexible enough. So the Egyptians invented the perfect bow, by cutting bendable wood into the shape of a bow and using sinew. This bow was the key to Ramses wining the battle of Kadesh, against the Hittites and sealing the victory for Egypt.

Gold: In Egypt gold was one of the most important things. It was a symbol of wealth and royalty. Gold was always worn by the pharaoh. Ancient Egyptians believed that gold was a divine and indestructible metal associated with the sun. The Pharaoh was called "the Golden Horus ", and they believed that the skin of the gods was golden.
The royal tomb was called the "House of Gold" during the New Kingdom and Isis and Nephthys were often depicted on the ends of sarcophagi kneeling on the hieroglyph meaning "gold". This is why gold was so important to ancient Egypt because the gods loved gold, the Pharaoh believed that he was a god, so he wore gold and his followers believed him so they respected gold.
