 FACT: SPOILER: The Pharaoh Ramses is mentioned by Mr. Spock as one  of the earthmen who sought absolute power. But Ramses I never  actually sought the power of the Pharaoh, it was thrust on him when  the pharaoh Horemheb died and named him as his successor. Moreover,  there were at least eight Pharaohs named Ramses who reigned after  Ramses I, and Mr. Spock doesnt specify which Ramses he means.
