This is another awesome example of scripture that testifies of Yeshua HaMashiach, Jesus the Messiah, Jesus the Christ.  We will study the event of the Golden Calf and God will teach us in His TORAH, His instructions, that He had a plan for Israel.  He had an awesome purpose for His treasured possession (Exod. 19:5)  It all relates to John 3:16 and the love the Lord has for all, the whole world.  But, the Hebrews failed and chose another god, a god of gold, a bull calf.  They didn't give up on the one true God, they just disobeyed Him in making an animal to represent the one God, the only God, יהוה Yahvay (I pronounce His name Yahvay and not Yahway since  Hebrew has no W sound so it is an error to say Yahway for His name).  Yahvay put this in His Ten Statements, His Ten Commandments, that we are not to make an image to represent the Lord.  The Hebrews  did.  And they did not follow His commands and went their own way. Once again, I brought up the likelihood that the Hebrews had assimilated into the Egyptian culture.  The Hebrews cried out in Exod. 2:23.  But, it is more than cried out.  The Hebrew word is za'aka זעק H2199 which is shriek or scream in deep anguish or terror.  On top of that the Hebrews cried out to no one!  In Exod. 2:23 they cried out - to who?  God heard them but they did not cry out, shriek in deep pain, to the Lord.  Later, at the sea before they crossed over, one they were reintroduced to the God of Abraham, we read in Exod. 14:10 that Israel cried out TO THE LORD.  We miss that.  We think they cried out to the Lord in Exod. 2:23.  That is putting words in the Bible that aren't there.  They didn't know the God of their fathers anymore.  What happened?  What's going on?  The answer - they had assimilated into the Egyptian culture.  The Bible proves it yet we missed it.  All they knew were the gods of Egypt.  It is easy to get Israel out of Egypt but it is nigh impossible to get Egypt out of Israel.   The Hebrews after hundreds of years were deeply imbedded into the Egyptian culture and ways.  Here's the link to study that the Hebrews assimilated into Egypt – https://halakhaoftheday.org/2023/03/29/from-propsperty-to-assimilationn/ Here' a link to lesson 4 part 2 in this series where we study this idea.  It is seemingly proven from the very word of God.  Here's the link - https://youtu.be/9tY5N0mAJ2I?si=BQ2ID2W8eVXZT1xb I did an “AI” search (artificial intelligence) of the Apis Bull in ancient Egypt.  I came up with the following.  I know a lot about the Apis Bull from my days traveling and doing research in Egypt plus my own personal study.  The “AI” material is right on.  So here it is in its entirety.  I do this just in case you want to expand your study to learn more about the Apis Bull and ancient Egypt. AI SEARCH ON THE APIS BULL – MAY 2026 The Apis bull was a sacred animal in ancient Egypt, serving as a living manifestation of the god Ptah and, during its life, a powerful symbol of the pharaoh's vitality, strength, and divine right to rule. As a direct connection between the gods and the kingdom, the Apis bull reinforced the legitimacy of the monarch and was frequently referred to as the "strong bull" in royal inscriptions. [1, 2, 3, 4] Connection to the Pharaoh Symbol of Power: The Apis bull directly symbolized the fertility, power, and vitality of the pharaoh. "Strong Bull" Titles: Pharaohs often used titles such as "Strong Bull of His Mother" to equate themselves with the sacred animal. Ritual Union: During the Sed festival (rejuvenation ceremony), the pharaoh participated in rituals with the bull to absorb its divine power, often described as running or walking with the Apis. Divine Manifestation: The bull was considered an earthly avatar of Ptah (creator god) and, upon death, united with Osiris to become Osiris-Apis. [1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7] Worship and Life Selection: Priests selected the bull based on strict, specific markings, including a black coat, a white triangle on the forehead, an eagle-shaped mark on the back, and a beetle-shaped mark under the tongue. Royal Treatment: Once selected, the Apis lived in a specialized "House of Apis" in Memphis, treating the bull with the same reverence and luxury as a pharaoh. Afterlife: When the Apis died, it was mummified and buried with immense fanfare in a dedicated cemetery known as the Serapeum at Saqqara. [2, 8, 9, 10] [1] https://www.ancientegyptblog.com/?p=3313 [2] https://www.facebook.com/Egypt.Culture/posts/the-sacred-bull-apis-was-one-of-the-greatest-religious-symbols-in-ancient-egypt-/930050865826543/ [3] https://www.magellantv.com/articles/by-the-horns-of-apis-ancient-egypts-noble-bullgod [4] https://egyptatours.com/what-is-apis-bull/ [5] https://australian.museum/learn/cultures/international-collection/ancient-egyptian/bull-apis-e39829/ [6] https://templeofathena.blog/2016/08/18/god-of-the-month-club-apis-the-living-bull-god-of-egypt/ [7] https://www.livius.org/articles/religion/apis/ [8] https://www.facebook.com/Tresuresofancientegypt/posts/a-sacred-bull-apis-egypt-with-ahmed-graeco-roman-museum-of-alexandria/833234285657958/ [9] https://egypt-museum.com/cows-bulls-in-ancient-egypt/ [10] https://x.com/archeohistories/status/1939677557500293212 In this lesson the Bible supports the idea that Aaron was complicit in the event of the Golden Bull Calf.  Orthodix Jewish Rabbis, however, stick up for Aaron and try to argue he is totally innocent with regards to the Golden Bull Calf incident.  Their views are merely opinion not based upon God's word and in fact are dismissive of the word when it says that Aaron is guilty and the Lord will destroy him along with all Israel.  Their views are totally unacceptable and in great error. Aaron may not have participated in the worship of the Golden Bull Calf, but he made the molten image and thus got all Israel to sin grievously against the Lord.  That Aaron was found guilty is clear in the very words of God Himself and God wanted to destroy all Israel and AARON!!  "The LORD spoke further to me, saying, 'I have seen this people, and indeed, it is a stubborn people. 'Let Me alone, that I may destroy them and blot out their name from under heaven; and I will make of you a nation mightier and greater than they.' "(Deu 9:13-14) "The LORD was angry enough with Aaron to destroy him; so I also prayed for Aaron at the same time."  (Deu 9:20) Here's some links that will add to your study with regards to Aaron's guilt in this terrible event of the Golden Bull Calf. ARTICLE ON AARON'S GUILT FROM CHABAD – AN ORTHODIX JEWISH SITE - https://www.chabad.org/parshah/article_cdo/aid/860977/jewish/Why-Did-Aaron-Make-the-Golden-Calf.htm ARTICLE ON AARON'S GUILT FROM www.GotQuestions.org - https://www.gotquestions.org/Aaron-golden-calf.html In this lesson we hear God say, "They have quickly turned aside from the way which I commanded them ..." (Exo 32:8) What is God's WAY that He wanted the Hebrews to follow?  The Hebrew word for the word WAY is derekh (דֶּרֶךְ).  It is the word used in Genesis 3 when the Lord shows the WAY back to the Garden was closed and guarded by two mighty Khrooveem (not cherubs).  The WAY to the Father was blocked.  Now in Exodus 32 God talks about His WAY, His derekh (דֶּרֶךְ) He wants the Hebrews to follow.  Later, the Lord comes to us and He says in John 14 that, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me." (Joh 14:6)  So, what might he Lord be getting at?  What is the lesson?   I suggest it seems to be summed up in the first verses of Psalm 119. How blessed are those whose way is blameless, Who walk in the law of the LORD. How blessed are those who observe His testimonies, Who seek Him with all their heart. They also do no unrighteousness; They walk in His ways. You have ordained Your precepts, That we should keep them diligently. Oh that my ways may be established To keep Your statutes!   (Psa 119:1-6) In TORAH the Lord gives us His intruction to live as His people, His chosen ones.  We are to liv in such a way that our lives show we are lovng the Lord God and serving Him by living as per His word, the Written Word.  But then He came to us.  Yeshua.  He is the Living Word.  In John 14 we read that Yeshua says if we are His true disciples He is in us and we in Him.  We abide together.  And as true branches of the "true vine" that is Yeshua we are to be fruitful so that our work in Yeshua keeps until the final harvest of the Vinedresser, the Father, and show ourselves to be His disciples.  We live to be His People of THE WAY,  derekh (דֶּרֶךְ).

fWotD Episode 3268: Nynetjer Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Thursday, 16 April 2026, is Nynetjer.Nynetjer (also known as Ninetjer and Banetjer) was the third pharaoh of the Second Dynasty of Egypt during the Early Dynastic Period, prior to the Old Kingdom period. The dates for his reign are uncertain; Egyptologists have proposed that it took place at some point between the late 29th and the early 27th century BC for 35 to 49 years, and most probably lasted around 40 years. Archaeologically, Nynetjer is the best-attested king of the early Second Dynasty and he is also recorded on several king lists dating to the Old Kingdom and the later Ramesside and Ptolemaic periods. There is strong evidence that he succeeded Raneb on the throne. The events at the end of his reign and the identity of his successor are much less clear. Both historical sources and archaeological evidence point to some breakdown or partition of the state along both religious and political lines, most probably seeing concurrent rulers reigning over Upper and Lower Egypt until the country was reunited by Khasekhemwy at the end of the dynasty.Most of the events recorded for Nynetjer's reign on the Palermo Stone, the Old Kingdom royal annals, are regular religious festivals and censuses undertaken for taxation purposes. The probable locations for these events indicate that royal activity was largely confined to the capital Memphis and its vicinity in Lower Egypt, with the possible exception of a military campaign in Nubia. The administrative structure of the state continued on its First Dynasty (c. 3150 – 3000 BC) basis but became more sophisticated, with the earliest evidence for the administrative partition of Egypt into nomes, a regional management system, dating to Nynetjer's reign.Nynetjer had a large gallery tomb dug for himself in Saqqara, now beneath parts of both Djoser's and Unas's pyramid complexes. His tomb comprises a maze of over 150 rooms, some of which are arranged to model a royal palace. Although it was disturbed during Egypt's later periods, the tomb when excavated still housed some of the original funerary equipment of the king. This included hundreds of jars that once held wine, beer and jujube fruits. Excavations have also produced numerous stone tools, some of which seem to have been used in a ritual feast for Nynetjer's burial. The subterranean tomb was probably built with associated superstructures, but these have not survived as they were levelled and overbuilt by subsequent pharaohs.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 02:29 UTC on Thursday, 16 April 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Nynetjer on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Brian.

¿Sabías que los antiguos egipcios movían cajas de granito de 100 toneladas, y los científicos todavía se preguntan cómo lo lograron? Estas enormes cajas de piedra, encontradas en lugares como el Serapeum de Saqqara, fueron talladas con una precisión increíble. ¿Lo sorprendente? ¡Fueron transportadas desde canteras a cientos de millas de distancia! Los ingenieros modernos están desconcertados sobre cómo esto fue posible sin grúas, camiones ni herramientas modernas. Algunos piensan que utilizaron ingeniosos métodos que involucraban rampas, trineos e incluso agua para reducir la fricción. Cualquiera que haya sido el método, es un asombroso ejemplo de innovación antigua que todavía nos maravilla hoy en día. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Durante una excavación en la necrópolis de Saqqara, los arqueólogos se topan con una serie de descubrimientos que reavivan antiguas preguntas sobre el Antiguo Egipto. Sarcófagos intactos, objetos funerarios excepcionales y, sobre todo, una tumba de piedra atribuida a un visir del Imperio Nuevo. Sin embargo, lo que se encuentra en su interior cambia por completo la interpretación inicial. Días después, el hallazgo de una reina casi desconocida, descubierta hace años y hasta ahora envuelta en el misterio, vuelve a tomar protagonismo. ¿Podrían estas pistas conectarse entre sí? ¿Y si estos nuevos descubrimientos cuestionaran algunas certezas históricas aceptadas durante décadas?

Los antiguos egipcios soñaban con elevarse como aves majestuosas y pusieron a prueba su imaginación con el planeador de Saqqara. Es como si hubieran construido una maravilla de madera, una maqueta de avión, antes incluso de que existieran los aviones. Este planeador tenía alas de pájaro y la curiosidad de un inventor: ¡es como un experimento que viaja en el tiempo! Ya fuera un prototipo para futuros viajes aéreos o simplemente un antiguo juego de sueños de aviación, el Saqqara Glider es como un susurro del pasado que ha atrapado nuestra imaginación moderna.

Alberto Herrera entrevista, en el programa "Herrera en COPE", el programa de Carlos Herrera, con Javier Sierra, sobre la tecnología avanzada en la Antigüedad. La tecnología avanzada en la antigüedad incluye la invención de la escritura, la rueda, el arado, el control del fuego, y avances en metalurgia (acero de Damasco); los griegos desarrollaron mecanismos de engranajes (Mecanismo de Anticitera), relojes de agua y armas de asedio (catapultas); China aportó la brújula, la pólvora, el papel y la imprenta, mientras que los romanos destacaron con hormigón y sistemas hidráulicos; y se hallan enigmas como el dodecaedro romano y el avión de Saqqara, demostrando conocimientos sofisticados en ingeniería y astronomía mucho antes de lo esperado.

Paola Dubini, Christian Greco"La cultura è di tutti"Editore Egeawww.editoreegea.itAffermare che «la cultura è di tutti» può suonare demagogico o ambiguo. Significa forse che la cultura deve farsi prodotto da consumare in un eterno presente, dimenticando la dimensione di racconto che ci riconnette al passato? E poi qual è il confine fra «di tutti» e «di nessuno»? Se sulla carta, a partire dall'art. 9 della Costituzione, la cultura è di tutti, le statistiche dimostrano che nei fatti resta invece nella testa, nel cuore e nel portafoglio di pochi. Nelle pagine di questo dialogo, gli autori – diversi per formazione, età, genere e percorso professionale, ma uniti da una comune sensibilità – provano a dare significato alla provocazione che dà titolo al libro, intrecciando riflessioni che toccano, tra l'altro, la rilevanza della cultura materiale in un'epoca sempre più digitale, il rapporto tra discipline in apparenza lontane ma che proprio insieme sviluppano conoscenza, l'importanza di coinvolgere la comunità in un'ottica di inclusione e accessibilità – fisica, intellettuale ed economica – di un patrimonio che deve essere vissuto come di tutti noi.Christian Greco, egittologo, co-direttore della missione archeologica italo-olandese a Saqqara, dal 2014 è Direttore del Museo Egizio di Torino.

fWotD Episode 3111: Merenre Nemtyemsaf I Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Monday, 10 November 2025, is Merenre Nemtyemsaf I.Merenre Nemtyemsaf (meaning 'Beloved of Ra, Nemty is his protection') was an Ancient Egyptian pharaoh, fourth king of the Sixth Dynasty. He ruled Egypt for six to eleven years in the early 23rd century BC, toward the end of the Old Kingdom period. He was the son of his predecessor Pepi I Meryre and queen Ankhesenpepi I and was in turn succeeded by Pepi II Neferkare who might have been his son or less probably his brother. Pepi I may have shared power with Merenre in a co-regency at the very end of the former's reign.Merenre's rule saw profound changes in the administration of the southern provinces of Egypt, with a marked increase in the number of provincial administrators and a concurrent steep decline in the size of the central administration in the capital Memphis. As a consequence the provincial nobility became responsible for tax collection and resource management, gaining in political independence and economic power. This led to the first provincial burials for the highest officials including viziers, governors of Upper Egypt and nomarchs.Several trading and quarrying expeditions took place under Merenre, in particular to Nubia where caravans numbering hundreds of donkeys were sent to fetch incense, ebony, animal skins, ivory and exotic animals. Such was the interest in the region that Merenre had a canal dug to facilitate the navigation of the first cataract into Nubia. Trade with the Levantine coast for lapis lazuli, silver, bitumen, and tin took place while quarrying for granite, travertine and alabaster took place in the south and in the Eastern Desert.A pyramid complex was built for Merenre in Saqqara, known as Khanefermerenre by the Ancient Egyptians meaning 'the appearance of the perfection of Merenre' and likely completed prior to the king's death. The subterranean chambers were inscribed with the Pyramid Texts. In the burial chamber, the black basalt sarcophagus of the king still held a mummy when it was entered in the 19th century. The identification of the mummy as Merenre's is still uncertain. Following his death, Merenre was the object of a funerary cult until at least the end of the Old Kingdom. During the New Kingdom period, he was in a selection of past kings to be honoured.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:47 UTC on Monday, 10 November 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Merenre Nemtyemsaf I on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Joanna.

What if one of Egypt's greatest secrets was hidden in plain sight — behind a false door?

Conventional archaeology propagates the notion that the further we look back into history, the more archaic the civilizations were and the more inferior their methods of construction. Yet all over the world are megalithic marvels that were engineered with an ancient lost technology, that confound today's experts, that defy our greatest modern engineering and that tell us a different version of history. Case in point - the Serapeum of Saqqara - one of the most enigmatic ancient sites in all of Egypt. The serapeum is where one of the greatest discoveries ever made on planet earth took place. Lost under the sands of time, this subterranean labyrinth was rediscovered in 1850 and hides 24 colossal 100 ton granite boxes, some of which feature machine-like precision finishes. Who created these boxes? How were they moved deep underground into their tight fitting enclosures? What was the original purpose of these boxes and what was hidden inside of them? These are some of the questions I will attempt to answer in this exclusive video.JOIN ME ON A TOUR CHRIS DUNN BOOK

The Wag Festival is one of the oldest named celebrations in Ancient Egypt, a summertime rite honoring both the death of Osiris and the memory of departed loved ones. Each year, the living gathered to share feasts with the dead with offerings of bread, beer, and beef to sustain them in the afterlife. In this episode, we'll explore the festival's connection to the Osiris Myth and uncover its traces in the archaeological record, from tomb reliefs and inscribed stone offering tables to the very first Pyramid Texts in the tomb of Unas. Along the way, you'll hear about some of the specific foods and offerings that graced these ancient tables.TranscriptsFor transcripts of this episode head over to: https://archpodnet.com/tpm/20Links and SourcesSee photos related to episode topics on InstagramLoving the macabre lore?

Giants were found preserved for thousands of years in “stasis chambers.” Visit https://themetaphysical.tv to support our work! Rumors of ancient “stasis beings” kept alive for centuries in a perpetual sleep have circulated for years. Like something out of science fiction, these sarcophagi supposedly preserve whoever's inside it—until it's time to wake up. There's even footage of an alleged giant-sized king with red hair, a red beard, and golden crown inside one of these boxes. But how do we know if it's real? Has such technology ever been developed in the ancient past? And if it has, what does that mean for us today? Rob and John will talk about the biggest theories and the remote viewing data that John's team gathered about this stasis chamber and more. Then decide what you think. Join investigative researcher Rob Counts and John Vivanco for a Metaphysical show that's out of this world. In this episode: giants, Anunnaki giant kings, Nephilim fallen angels, paranormal creature encounters, secret military missions to capture giants, battles with giants, insight from a Navy Seal, biblical giants and the Nephilim, vibrations and frequencies, shifting densities, ancient tech before the last Ice Age, escaping cataclysms, the tombs at Saqqara, Apis bull tombs, Anunnaki seed beings, ancient advanced technology, ancient civilizations, before Noah's flood, government cover-ups, remote viewing data, psychic abilities, telepathy and mind reading, interplanetary travel, hibernation techniques, psychological operations, hidden agendas, “the good old days” before technology was so essential, black market antiques, the pyramids, supernatural phenomena, ancient astronauts, ancient aliens, Gilgamesh and other giants, real Gilgamesh found

Geoffrey Drumm discusses his theories on the Great Pyramid of Giza and other ancient structures, suggesting they were chemical reactors rather than electricity generators. He proposes that the pyramids harnessed lightning to produce chemicals like sulfuric and hydrochloric acids, which were used for mining and agriculture. Drumm's research includes chemical analyses from sites like the Red Pyramid and the Giza Plateau, showing evidence of fulgurites and metal oxide staining. He also connects these structures to natural electric currents and their alignment with electromagnetic energy fields, suggesting a broader application of ancient physics and chemistry across various civilizations. Geoffrey Drumm discusses the construction of the Great Pyramid, highlighting the irregular core masonry contrasting with the precise exterior casing stones. He explains the use of ancient machines like the Hierapolis saw and arsenical bronze saw blades, powered by water wheels, for stone cutting. Drumm hypothesizes that the step pyramid at Saqqara was used for methane fermentation, while the Red Pyramid converted methane into ammonia. He also suggests the Bent Pyramid produced nitric acid. Drumm's research includes chemical analysis of pyramid structures, linking ancient techniques to modern chemical processes, and he invites others to join his tours in Egypt to explore these theories further.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.

A unos cuantos kilómetros al sur de la pirámide de Keops una construcción más desconocida cubierta de textos extraordinarios preside el desierto de Saqqara. Pertenece al rey Pepi II, el faraón con el reinado más longevo del antiguo Egipto con más de 60 años en el poder. La pirámide alberga en sus cámaras funerarias el compendio de textos religiosos más antiguos de la humanidad. Estas fórmulas mágicas acompañaban al faraón al más allá. Esta pirámide está cerrada al público mientras está siendo estudiada y analizada por arqueólogos e historiadores por que es el testimonio de la edad de oro del antiguo Egipto y marca un antes y un después en la construcción de las pirámides.

It's time to visit Egypt again. In November 2025, we are doing a 9-day visit to Luxor for the "Glories of Thebes!" Starting in Cairo (with the GEM) we head south to visit the Valley of the Kings, Memorial Temples, Deir el-Medina, Abydos, Karnak, and so much more. Note: Future tour groups will be smaller than previous years (because I don't have to travel so far, from NZ, anymore). Places are limited, so get in touch! If you're interested and want to add extra days in Cairo for pyramids, Saqqara, etc, let AWT know in your contact email. Things can always be arranged!

Dahshur, es un antiguo yacimiento piramidal situado justo al sur de Saqqara, en el norte de Egipto. Dos de las cinco pirámides que se conservan datan de la IV dinastía (c. 2575–c. 2465 a. C.) y fueron construidas por el rey Snefru (que reinó entre 2575 y 2551 a. C.). La anterior, debido a su peculiar doble pendiente, recibe diversos nombres: pirámide roma, curva, falsa, acodada o romboidal. Esta pirámide representa un intento temprano de construir una pirámide verdadera, pero se descubrió que el ángulo inicial de la pendiente (52°) era demasiado pronunciado; la parte superior de la pirámide se redujo a 43,5°. Es la mejor conservada de las cinco y la única pirámide del Imperio Antiguo (c. 2575–c. 2130 a. C.) con dos entradas.

Did you know ancient Egyptians moved 100-ton granite crates, and scientists are still scratching their heads over how they did it? These massive stone boxes, found in places like the Serapeum of Saqqara, were carved with incredible precision. The crazy part? They were transported from quarries hundreds of miles away! Modern engineers are baffled by how this was even possible without cranes, trucks, or modern tools. Some think they used ingenious methods involving ramps, sledges, and even water to reduce friction. Whatever the method, it's a mind-blowing example of ancient innovation that still amazes us today!

History Of Egypt, Chaldæa, Syria, Babylonia, and Assyria is the masterwork of one of the fathers of modern egyptology. This work, in twelve volumes, was translated from the French original, “Histoire ancienne des peuples de l'Orient classique” and published in 1903-1904. Maspero was a largely self-taught master of hieroglyphic translation. In November 1880, he was placed at the head of a French archeological mission, which developed later into the Institut Français d'Archéologie Orientale. Maspero then succeeded Mariette as director-general of excavations and of the antiquities of Egypt.“Aware that his reputation was then more as a linguist than an archaeologist, Maspero's first work in the post was to build on Mariette's achievements at Saqqara. He expanded their scope from the early Old Kingdom to the later, with particular interest in tombs with long and complete hieroglyphic inscriptions that could help illustrate the development of the Egyptian language. Selecting five later Old Kingdom tombs, he was successful in that aim, finding over 4000 lines of hieroglyphics which were then sketched and photographed.“As an aspect of his attempt to curtail the rampant illegal export of Egyptian antiquities by tourists, collectors and agents for the major European and American museums, Maspero arrested the Abd al-Russul brothers from the notorious treasure-hunting village of Gorna, who confessed under torture to having found the great cache of royal mummies at Deir el-Bahri in July 1881. The cache was moved to Cairo as soon as possible to keep it safe from robbers.“In 1886 he resumed work begun by Mariette to uncover the Sphinx, removing more than 65 feet of sand and seeking tombs below it (which he did not find, but have later been found but not opened).”Maspero went on to sponsor and expand the system of national museums and presided over the growing collection of the Bulak Museum. Maspero gave a 17 year old Howard Carter his first Egyptological job – and it was he who recommended Carter to Lord Carnarvon. Carter and Carnarvon would go on to discover the tomb of King Tutankhaman.In the first volume of this master work, Maspero tackles the importance of the Nile, the pantheon of Egyptian gods, and the legendary history of Egyptian gods.

In a recent episode of the Think Tank, Robert was joined by Ben Van Kerkwyk from UnchartedX to delve into the mysteries of ancient Egyptian artifacts. Ben shared insights from his CPAK conference presentation, revealing that the precision of granite vases and other stone vessels from ancient Egypt would be challenging to replicate even with today's technology. These artifacts, some over 12,000 years old, were analyzed using advanced scanning techniques, showing precision within microns comparable to modern aerospace standards. Ben also discussed his recent trip to Egypt, where he gathered more data and insights on these ancient artifacts. The discussion explored the intriguing potential functions of these artifacts, hypothesizing that the vases could have been resonators or part of a sophisticated system, possibly for healing purposes. They also touched on the discovery of a fixed ratio relationship in the vases' geometric design, aligning with musical harmonic scales and suggesting a broader system of design and mathematics used in ancient times. This connection extended to Robert's pyramid research, where he discovered pictures on the walls of the King's Chamber. Robert shared his findings of hidden images and symbols, revealing intricate designs and potential meanings behind these ancient markings, sparking our curiosity and engagement. Robert and Ben further delved into the idea of advanced ancient knowledge, discussing theories of astronomical alignments and the presence of mathematical constants like pi and the golden ratio in these designs. They speculated on an ancient, advanced civilization that left behind these precise artifacts. The episode also covered the fantastic discoveries related to the geometry and dimensions of the pyramids, blending scientific analysis with historical speculation and offering a captivating exploration of ancient mysteries and the remarkable capabilities of ancient civilizations.

Before the fall (c.2600 - 2200 BCE). Early Egyptians were fierce and active warriors. Our evidence for the Old Kingdom “army,” however, is scattered and fragmentary. Sifting through the pieces, we can reconstruct some elements of the early armed forces. In this episode, we explore royal texts that describe campaigns; pyramid art showing battles and soldiers training; and even images of siege warfare… The History of Egypt Podcast: Website: www.egyptianhistorypodcast.com.

Underground pyramids, tunnels, and caverns were discovered beneath a wine cellar in Italy. Enormous stone boxes were found in the Serapeum of Saqqara—and nobody knows how they got there. A mysterious monument at Gobekli Tepe shows evidence of a cataclysm that devastated humanity. Tunnels in Turkey show remains of an ancient, buried past. What can we learn about sites of ancient cataclysms, underground pyramids, and impossible tombs? Rob will share his investigative research, and John will bring you his remote viewing data in this episode about 4 ancient sites that warn of cataclysms. Tune in for a Metaphysical show that's out of this world. In this episode: Etruscan pyramids, subterranean paths, the Apis cult of ancient Greece, the Clovis man, ice ages, the Younger Dryas period, the Vulture Stone stamped with a strange date, Derinkuyu's underground city, ancient city of Elengubu, cyclical events of destruction and renewal throughout the universe, archaeologists' baffling claims that they have no idea what they've found, ancient artifacts, ancient pigeon houses, enormous sarcophagi, giant bulls and bull worship, granite boxes that had to be dynamited open, Egyptian pyramids and Egyptian funerary texts, stone glyphs, John's favorite ancient site, a race of feline beings, why the sun is so important, coronal mass ejections (CMEs), Atlantis-era civilizations, Indian epochs called  “yugas,” synchronicities, human intuition, anomalies outside our solar system, rediscovered dwellings, and more

In New Kingdom Egypt (c.1500 – 1150 BCE), the rulers and people of the Nile Valley communicated extensively with their eastern neighbours. Trade and diplomacy were far more common than outright conflict. And the Egyptian pharaohs were highly regarded in distant courts. These contacts survive in the archaeological record: detailed texts recording interactions; shipwrecks carrying cargo from the Egyptian court; and even tombs recording the high status of foreigners serving the pharaoh himself.
