cdybedahlA mailing list I'm on two things have just been mentioned that might interest some people here. The first is an example of extremely early RPF, in the form of an inscription showing the pharao Hatshepsut and her chief advisor Senenmut going at it. Since Hatshepsut was officially a man, this should even count as slash. She ruled Egypt between 1473 BCE and 1458 BCE, which was long before even Madonna became famous.
The second is the tomb of two men married to each other. It was found in Saqqara in 1964 and is dated to the Fifth Dynasty, which would place it at about 2500 BCE. Clearly this gay marriage must have been what caused the downfall of the ancient Egyptian civilization, since it only lasted for about 2000 years after that.
