He commanded his own tribe and enjoyed a prosperous life, but when he reached old age, he returned to Egypt and finished his life there.

2. Why did he flee out of Egypt?
When Sinuhe was on a military expedition in Libya alongside Senwosret I, news of Amenemhet I's assassination reached the army, and Sinuhe panicked. He is concerned that Egypt will destabilize and that his own life will be jeopardized. As a result, he departs the army camp and heads to Egypt's eastern border.

3. How did he become the head of the tribe?
Sinuhe wanted to travel south after abandoning his homeland, but was diverted to the north while crossing the Nile River, and he entered Palestine.

Sinuhe reared a family and became a patriarch in that land.

4. Describe how he was accepted by the people when he returned to his homeland?
After years of living a prosperous life as a patriarch in his own land, he decides to return to Egypt for burial as he nears the end of his life. So Sinuhe wrote to King Sesostris, who invited Sinuhe to return to Egypt, which Sinuhe eagerly accepted. The king pardoned him for his real or imagined crimes and lavishly rewarded him. Sinuhe remarried in his country, and the pharaoh had a beautiful tomb made for him.

5. Relate this tale to the Prodigal Son.
The correlation between the Tale of Sinuhe and the Prodigal Son stems from the fact that both protagonists in their respective tales encountered the same faith. They both leave their homes to make a name for themselves, with the only difference being that Sinuhe was able to successfully carve out a prosperous life on his own. However, at the end of both tales, the protagonists find themselves returning to their homeland and being accepted wholeheartedly and without judgment. Therefore, both stories promote the concept of unconditional love, in which family will always be the first to accept us despite our flaws.

1. Who is Sinuhe?

-Sinuhe was a man of the Hyksos, who fled out of Egypt when they were defeated by the Egyptians. He became the head of his tribe and then he returned to his homeland after many years away.

2. Why did he flee out of Egypt?

-Sinuhe was a very ambitious person who wanted to leave Egypt because it was full of riches and resources, but he was afraid that his people would be killed if they were caught in battle with the Egyptians.

3. How did he become the head of the tribe?

-Sinuhe had a good reputation among his people and so they accepted him as their leader after he returned home from his journey.

4. Describe how he was accepted by the people when he returned to his homeland?

-Everyone welcomed him back and celebrated with him for having survived all that hardship in foreign lands; they treated him like royalty and made sure that everyone knew who their real king was.

5. Relate this tale to the prodigal son.
-The tale of Sinuhe is a beautiful story about the wandering, restless heart. It's about a man who has everything—wealth, power and prestige—and yet he feels like he has nothing. And so he leaves it all behind and sets out on a journey to find himself. In my opinion, this story has many similarities with that of the prodigal son in the Bible. The prodigal son was also rich and powerful, but his heart was not at peace with him. He left home because he was unhappy with his life there—he didn't feel like he belonged among his people or that they loved him as much as they should have. In both stories, we see how one thing can change everything: in one case it is the birth of a child (Christianity) or in another case it is simple boredom (mythology). Both men had everything they could ever need except for peace of mind; they just couldn't find it within themselves. And so they set out on journeys that would bring them closer to their goal: happiness and contentment with where they were at that moment in time.

He was supposedly returning with captives from Tjemeh but hearing the king's death from messengers they met on the road, Sinuhe was struck with fear. He expected that there would be chaos once he returned and he might be involved with the death of the king, so out of fear and dread, Sinuhe fled.

3. How did he become the head of the tribe?
When Sinuhe fled, he met Asiatics, and one of them was Ammunenshi, the ruler of Upper Retenu. This ruler knew Sinuhe's skills and character, and so Sinuhe was taken into his tribe in Retenu. Sinuhe then married the ruler's eldest daughter and becomes the head of a tribe in Retenu. As the head, Sinuhe completed his tasks and had multiple children with his wife.

4. Describe how he was accepted by the people when he returned to his homeland?
With the letter from King Senusert I (son of the late king) that stated a request for Sinuhe to come back to Egypt, and a promise of making him an Egyptian elite with a funeral procession on the day of his burial, Sinuhe returned. Once Sinuhe arrived at the palace, he was treated by the people as if was not a servant, and instead a man who shall reside in the house of a prince, given all the luxuries and the riches, and clothed with the finest linens. Craftsmen rebuilt a house, and masons built a stone pyramid and a tomb for Sinuhe. These acts—although an order from the king—showed the people's acceptance of Sinuhe to be back in Egypt.

5. Relate this tale to the Prodigal Son.
With how the Tale of Sinuhe revolved around Sinuhe's fleeing and returning home, this part of the tale has a similarity with that in the Prodigal Son. In the Prodigal Son, the character of the younger son also left home but still came back being welcomed and accepted by his father—which is much like how the new king and the people accepted Sinuhe's return.
