🏺 #Egyptology friends, a request for help please: Did the ancient Egyptians (at any point in time) refer to the Nile as ar/aur and is this related to a word meaning black? I can only find references to km(m) or Km.t. 🙏 Help much appreciated!

I wish universities would 'start to ask questions' about how many academic 'leadership' roles they can afford! The proliferation of vice/deputy/pro/associate 'leadership roles' over the last 10-20 years has been quite extraordinary.
