Mefkat
Mefkat was a small village located in the southwest corner of the Sapi-Res Nome. During the 1st century BCE, the village was home to Jeska, an Egyptian smuggler.
History[edit | edit source]
At some point in 48 BCE, Jeska began to use the village to house Saisians who were fleeing the governor, Sefetu, either his taxes or the way he and his men threatened the villagers' life and well-being; these refugees included Wenis and her son, Anen, and Pentu. Sefetu eventually learned about Jeska's operation, and he sent his men to raid and burn down the village. Of the people within, only Pentu survived, thanks to the arrival of Jeska and the Medjay Bayek of Siwa.[1]
After eliminating Sefetu's soldiers, Bayek and Jeska brought Pentu to the farm on the other side of a river, which belonged to Jeska's cousins, Ipi and Abana.[1]
