... , and the same remarks apply to the northern star g Draconis. It is well known that in quite early times means had been found of dividing the day and night into twelve hours. In the day shadows cast by the sun, or sundials, might have been used, but how about the night? We have seen that the Egyptians chiefly, if not exclusively, observed a heavenly body and the position of other bodies in relation to it, when it was rising or setting, so that it was absolutely essential that the body which they were to observe should rise and set. Everybody knows that as seen in England there are many stars which neither rise nor set ...

... the cause of many internal wars, and only the house in which two centuries earlier the great poet Pindar had been born was spared by order of Alexander. This Boeotian city was called the "seven-gated" Thebes because of its outer wall with seven gates and in order to distinguish it from the "hundred-gated" Thebes in Egypt. The Egyptian city - in Egyptian it was called Ne or No (" Residence") or No-Amon (" Residence of Amon," as in the Hebrew text of the book of the Prophet Nahum 3:8 )1 - did not have an outer wall with a hundred gates in it, but in time of war and siege its ...

... . One after another places of worship, palaces, sculptors' studios, and places of amusement came to light. The sepulchral chambers, however, had never been concealed from human eyes; these deserted rock chambers were known before the short-lived capital itself. They were built before the city proper was finished; it was more important for the Egyptian to have a house of eternity than a dwelling place; his entire philosophy of life was centered on the afterlife. The tomb chambers of the nobles were carved in the face of the surrounding rocky cliffs. There were two groups of them, one to the south, the other to the north. These sepulchers were generally modeled after ...

... outside the pylon (EES Report for the Year 1992/3 , p. 5) and have uncovered further inscriptions of Ramesses III, in addition to those already known of Ramesses II and III. It may be of interest that the name Rhampsinitis (spelt rho, alpha, mu, psi, etc) is a Greek version of Egyptian Ramesses plus S3 Nt (= son of Neith) which was a Late Period royal title (ref. A. Lloyd, Herodotus Book II Commentary 99-182, Leiden, 1988 p. 52). Lasken's question concerning Tony Rees' breaking of the link between Assuruballit and the Amarna Period is justified. I do not know what Tony ...

... added to the confusion, studied the Pyramid Texts and wrote erroneously that ancient solar oriented peoples had been absorbing the beliefs of a declining stellar oriented society. As with others before him, Breasted had been uncomfortable with the Babylonian polytheistic stellar worshipping cults that defied Hebraic traditions, and that of subsequent Christendom, and tried to redefine the Old Kingdom Egyptian worship with that of the more monotheistic ideologies of the New Kingdom pharaoh Akhnaton. This was how things stood until de Santillana and von Dechend wrote their massive tome on the equinoctial precession. In their view, the most primordial supernatural beliefs of mankind were predicated on the visible stars and the subtle changes in the heavens that occurred over time ...

736. Goedicke in Response to Stiebing [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... . The extreme complexity of the questions involved, as well as the wish to avoid emotionally charged squabbles, which are unlikely to be helpful, have prompted this reluctance. Let me restrict my comments to a few points. I am an Egyptologist and I am concerned with historical events which affected the Nile Valley and its inhabitants. If the Egyptian records point to natural disasters around the above date (the Speos Artemidos inscription of Hatshepsut is not the only one), it is my aim to grasp these indications in the framework of Egyptology. If the event or events happen to be reflected in other sources as well, one can consider this to be an extension of the primary ...

... by those commands they left the land of Egypt; and sometimes by behaving themselves ill towards him who was the servant of God, and this when he had never deceived them, either in what he said, or had ordered them to do by God's command. He also put them in mind of all that had passed; how the Egyptians were destroyed when they attempted to detain them, contrary to the command of God; and after what manner the very same river was to the others bloody, and not fit for drinking, but was to them sweet, and fit for drinking; and how they went a new road through the sea, which fled a long way ...

... , I will take them first. The orientations given by different authors are so conflicting that no certainty can be claimed, but it is possible that at Abydos one of the mounds is not far from the amplitude shown in the tables for the sun in the Nile valley at sunset at the summer solstice. If this were so, the Egyptians who were employed in building the temple must have known exactly what they were going to do. At Heliopolis, as I have hinted, the matter is still less certain. Almost every trace of the temple has disappeared, but of remains of temenos walls in 1844, when tie site was studied by Lepsius, there were plenty. ...

... requires us to regard written Akkadian as older than Hittite; (3 ) I.E ., unlike Sem., permits an internal etymology for "star", relating it to English "stare" and other verbs expressing strength and persistence; and (4 ) Afrasian language families related to Sem., such as Cushitic and Ancient Egyptian, fail to exhibit forms with this shape and meaning (as they should if the form were primarily Afrasian). EV COCHRANE adds: As a matter of fact, I was just researching this particular issue this past month. According to Wilhelm Eilers' book on planet- names, there is no connection between the IE word " ...

... titularies of Middle Assyrian kings such as Tiglath Pileser I and Ashur bel Kala. This had been obtained during forays into Syria, dating them after Dynasty 19. Some of the material came into their possession during wars with Aramean tribesmen who, in turn, had looted the cities of Syria-Palestine after the end of Dynasty 19 and the collapse of Egyptian control over the region. In a dream the god Ptah appeared to Merneptah in the form and shape of a scimitar. At Yazilikaya in the Hittite heartlands there is a depiction of a sword god, at roughly the same period - the Late Bronze Age. In the Bible a sword is depicted standing above Jerusalem - in the reign ...
