Nefroesobek

Neferoesobek of Sobekneferoe of Sobeknofru was de laatste heerser van de twaalfde dynastie. Ze was de dochter van de farao Amenemhat III. Ze was gehuwd met haar broer Amenhamat IV, maar deze stierf al vlug een kinderloze dood. Manetho vermeldt haar onder de naam Semiophris. Haar naam Sobek verwijst naar de god Sobek en vermoedelijk had ze een sterke band met Fayum.

Sobek

Sobek is een god uit de Egyptische mythologie. Hij had de kop van een krokodil en symboliseerde de vruchtbaarheid van de Nijl en de kracht van de farao's. Sobek was de zoon van Neith en werd vooral vereerd in El Faiyûm. De regio werd zo sterk geassocieerd met de krokodillengod, dat de Grieken een stad in de buurt zelfs Crocodilopolis noemden. In latere tijden werd Sobek gezien als incarnatie van de god Amon. Op afbeeldingen is hij uitgebeeld als een man met een krokodillenkop of een (gemummificeerde) krokodil. Vaak draagt Sobek op zijn hoofd de zonneschijf met een cobra. cobra in de Kom Ombo tempel]]

Viscount Lake

Gerard Lake, 1st Viscount Lake (July 27, 1744 - February 20, 1808), was a British general. He entered the foot guards in 1758, becoming lieutenant (captain in the army) 1762, captain (lieutenant-colonel) in 1776, major 1784, and lieutenant colonel in 1792, by which time he was a general officer in the army. He served with his regiment in Germany in 1760-1762 and with a composite battalion in the Battle of Yorktown of 1781. After this he was equerry to the Prince of Wales, afterwards George IV. In 1790 he became a major-general, and in 1793 was appointed to command the Guards Brigade in the Duke of York's army in Flanders during the Napoleonic Wars. He was in command at the brilliant affair of Lincelles, on 18 August 1793, and served on the continent (except for a short time when seriously ill) until April 1794. He had now sold his lieutenant-colonelcy in the guards, and had become colonel of the 53rd foot and governor of Limerick in Ireland. In 1797 he was promoted lieutenant-general.

1798 rebellion in Ireland

In the following year the Irish Rebellion broke out. Lake, who was then serving in Ireland, succeeded Sir Ralph Abercromby in command of the troops in April 1798, issued a proclamation ordering the surrender of all arms by the civil population of Ulster, and on the 21 June routed the rebels at Vinegar Hill (near Enniscorthy, County Wexford). He exercised great severity towards all rebels found in arms. Lord Cornwallis now assumed the chief command in Ireland, and in August sent Lake to oppose the French expedition which landed at Killala Bay. On the 29th of the same month Lake arrived at Castlebar, but only in time to witness the disgraceful rout of the troops under General Hely-Hutchinson (afterwards 2nd earl of Donoughmore); but he retrieved this disaster by compelling the surrender of the French at Ballinamuck, near Cloone, on 8 September.

Indian campaigns

In 1799 Lake returned to England, and soon afterwards obtained the command in chief in British India. He took over his duties at Calcutta in July 1801, and applied himself to the improvement of the Indian army, especially in the direction of making all arms, infantry, cavalry and artillery, more mobile and more manageable. In 1802 he was made a full general. On the outbreak the Second Anglo-Maratha War in 1803 General Lake took the field against Sindhia, and within two months defeated the Marathas at Coel, stormed Aligarh, took Delhi and Agra, and won the great victory at the Battle of Laswari (November 1, 1803), where the power of Sindhia was completely broken, with the loss of thirty-one disciplined battalions, trained and officered by Frenchmen, and 426 pieces of ordnance. This defeat, followed a few days later by Major-General Arthur Wellesley's victory at the Battle of Argaon, compelled Sindhia to come to terms, and a treaty with him was signed in December 1803. Operations were, however, continued against his confederate, Holkar, who, on 17 November 1804, was defeated by Lake at Farrukhabad. But the fortress of Bhurtpore held out against four assaults early in I805, and Cornwallis, who succeeded Wellesley as Governor-General of India in July of that year, superseding Lake at the same time as commander-in-chief, determined to put an end to the war. But after the death of Cornwallis in October of the same year, Lake pursued Holkar into the Punjab and compelled him to surrender at Amritsar in December 1805. Wellesley in a despatch attributed much of the success of the war to Lake's matchless energy, ability and valour. For his services Lake received the thanks of parliament, and was rewarded by a peerage in September 1804. At the conclusion of the war he returned to England, and in 1807 he was created a viscount. He represented Aylesbury in the British House of Commons from 1790 to 1802, and he also was brought into the Irish Parliament by the government as member for Armagh in 1799 to vote for the Act of Union. He died in London on the 20th of February 1808.
