Historical Egyptology 7B (GGUF)
Historical Egyptology 7B β a Mistral-7B-Instruct fine-tune infused with the grandeur, mystery, and wisdom of ancient Egypt.
Perfect for immersive historical roleplay, myth retellings, educational narratives, pharaonic decrees, scribe chronicles, and Nile-soaked storytelling.

β¨ Overview
This model was fine-tuned (LoRA r=64, alpha=64, 3 epochs, 860 cleaned examples) on historical Egyptology texts using Unsloth.
It excels at evocative, period-flavored prose β invoking gods (Ra, Anubis, Isis, Thoth), pharaohs, dynasties, mummification rites, pyramid construction, Nile mythology, and the atmosphere of temples and tombs.
Best uses:
- Deep historical fiction & alternate-history tales
- Educational explainers (mummification, Book of the Dead, Old/Middle/New Kingdom)
- Roleplay as pharaoh, high priest, scribe, tomb robber, explorer, deityβ¦
- Creative local assistants with ancient-Egypt personality
Not optimized for:
- Strict modern factual accuracy (flavor > precision)
- Advanced math, coding, or technical reasoning
- Extremely long context without rope/extensions
Training snapshot (2026-02-05 run):
- Base: Mistral-7B-Instruct (~7.4B params)
- LoRA: 167,772,160 trainable params (2.26%)
- Dataset: 860 examples, max seq len 3072
- Epochs: 3 | Steps: 162 | Final loss: 1.7763
- Runtime: ~11.5 hours (1Γ GPU)
