Nome (Egypt)

A nome (/noʊm/,[1] from Ancient Greek: νομός, nomós, "district") was a territorial division in ancient Egypt.[2]

Each nome was ruled by a nomarch (Ancient Egyptian: ḥrj tp ꜥꜣ, "Great Chief").[3] The number of nomes changed through the various periods of the history of ancient Egypt.[4]
