... the love of the Earth and the Night Sky, was born on the first day of a new era which was established by a lunar god. He was not, therefore, originally a solar deity, but a lunar one. Not oniy his maternal descent and the help of Thoth point to this, but also the report of the Egyptians and Greeks that in early times Osiris had been regarded as a god of the Night Sky. Moreover, if he had been a solar deity from the beginning his father' would surely have had solar attributes; Ra, however, instinctively recognized that his wife's expected offspring was diametrically opposite to the principle which he himself represented. The ...
322. Night of the Gods: Polar Myths. The North [Books]
... (Life?) is food, the graha of food is water, the graha of water is Agni, the graha of Agni (fire) is Breath, again. Here is a mort of mystery sufficient to usher in the mysteriousness of the Graal, of which I suggest the Graha to have been the true original. That the Egyptian also put his back to the N, is proved by ab hieroglyphs being left, and abti hieroglyphs and and hieroglyphs and hieroglyphs and being East. hieroglyphs by itself is also the sign of the hieroglyphs East. Besides, hieroglyphs which indicates the N, is also ha, behind. Right, unami. hieroglyphs and hieroglyphs has for ...
323. 'Peoples of the Sea': An Art Historical Perspective [Journals] [SIS Review]
... that the discourse presented here will spur other art historians and archaeologists to enter into a rational discussion of the revised chronology. "The gauntlet is there and must be taken up." The Mound of the Jew' In 1870, E. Brugsch discovered a large number of enamelled tiles in a palatial ruin of Ramses III at the Lower Egyptian site of Tell el-Yehudiya (the Mound of the Jew). The tiles had served as architectural embellishment and included as many as "3600 disks of various sizes and a great number of tiles more or less broken, bearing either flower ornaments, or birds, animals, and portraits of Asiatic or negro prisoners" (1 ). ...
324. Ishtar, Isis, Baal and the Aten [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... suggests that Ramesses XI is likely to be earlier than Ramesses VI, VII and IX, and could even be earlier than Ramesses II. When the Dyn. XIX/XX overlaps are combined with the more commonly cited Dyn. XXI/XXV overlaps, we are at least within sight of the claim that a 505 year compression of conventional Egyptian history is feasible, despite the claims of Dr Bimson (and others), that this is an impossibility. Much obviously still needs to be done before all the details of the history of this era will be satisfactorily resolved (if they ever can be). My principal contention is that, during the 150 years or so following ...
325. SIS Study Group Meeting 16th October 1999 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... (the tin islands, i.e . Britain) is where they got their tin and Sargon talks of tin mountains to the west, not about sources in the North or East. David Fairbairn reported on David Rohl's recent Legends Conference at Buckfast Abbey. This was followed by a general discussion of Rohl's theory for the origins of the Egyptian dynastic era. Petrie in his History of Egypt had suggested that Egypt was united by a race with strong cultural links with Mesopotamia. These appeared to move into the Delta from the south. They probably arrived by boat on the shore of the Red Sea, and crossed the desert to arrive in middle Egypt. Arthur Weigal first found ...
326. Evidence For Shortening Egyptian History [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS C & C Review 2003 (Nov 2003) Conference Proceedings Ages Still in Chaos' Home | Issue Contents Evidence For Shortening Egyptian History Robert M. Porter Bob Porter has an MSc in engineering, was for some time a member of the S1S editorial team and currently contributes a regular feature on Recent Developments in Near Eastern Archaeology' to C&C Review. 1. Introduction I shall talk about the Third Intermediate Period (TIP), mainly the earlier half, and particularly about recent excavations at Tanis which have turned up an enormous elliptical pit which is a major problem for the Orthodox Chronology. I shall use the abbreviations OC' for the Old or ...
327. Rejoinder to Velikovsky [Journals] [Pensee]
... the eighth-seventh centuries rather than the fourteenth, the absolute dates for archaeological deposits in Palestine are all wrong. But that would not change the fact that in Palestine the material which archaeologists have classified as Late Bronze Age preceded the material designated as Iron Age. What I attempted to point out in my article was that in Palestine material of the Egyptian Empire (including the Amarna Period) and of the Mycenaean Age is found stratified in deposits with artifacts characteristic of the Palestinian Late Bronze Age. But pottery and other objects of the Assyrian Empire are found in occupation layers of Palestinian cities with artifacts characteristic of the Iron Age II. The occurrence of the Iron Age layers above Late Bronze ...
328. Carbon 14 Dates and Velikovsky's Revision of Ancient History [Journals] [Pensee]
... science to the scheme. Since Egypt's dates are regarded as sound they are seized upon by archaeologists dealing with cultures in contact with Egypt which were either non-literate or whose writing is non-historical or still undeciphered. The absolute dates attached to finds in Greece for the Late Bronze (also called Late Helladic or Mycenaean) Age are thus derived directly from Egyptian ones. Once dates have been assigned to Greek material, exports of that material from Greece to other lands in turn furnish absolute dates to the places and strata in which they are encountered. This is especially true of the Mycenaean pottery of Greece which is quite distinctive and whose sequence has been established by experts noting stratigraphy of the finds ...
329. Chapter XV: Temples Directed to the Stars [Books]
... Chapter XV Temples Directed to the Stars I HAVE now to pass from the circumpolar stars to those which both rise and set. The difference between the two groups- those that do not rise and set and those which do- was fully recognised by the Egyptians, and many references are made to the fact in the inscriptions. Ground Plan of Edfû In a previous chapter I have given reasons to show that some of the earliest solar temples in Egypt were not oriented to the solstice. The temple of Amen-Ra at Karnak, however, and others elsewhere were built in such a manner that at sunset at the summer solstice- that is, on the longest day in the ...
330. The Electrical God [Books] [de Grazia books]
... Moses. They would be idiosyncratically Moses, but not completely him. Moses stopped far short of placing all his religious impulses into the hallucination of Yahweh; he seems to have been previously what might be called a liberal Hermist, a devotee of Thoth-Hermes-Mercury. His invention-conversion to Yahweh did not eradicate the Hermetic qualities that took deep root during his Egyptian years. His great and versatile skills gave him a reputation throughout the ancient world for being a veritable Hermes. Julian Jaynes has developed a theory that the human race, for a period of time extending up to the classical period, was of two minds, one rational and pragmatic (corresponding to the traits of the left hemisphere of ...
