Why is there so much concentration on the great pyramid and its function. I suspect that the pyramids at Giza were all part of a process of some sort and were built at about the same time. Has anyone ever tried to view the complex as a whole and working out the functions of the pyramids from that perspective.
Actually, the assistant to Alexander the Great converted to Buddhism. The Greeks brought back scholars from both Hinduism and Buddhism to the Middle East and Egypt. Actually, the Romans complained that the Buddhist monasteries were attracting too many women (nuns) and men into their ranks. You also find that the New Testament is filled with references to Buddhist and how the lily is to be regarded as the highest ideal, begging from community to community with little material provisions, eat what the people provide you in whatever community to go to, and even the titles given to Jesus were all the titles and history from the stories that predate the common era with the Buddha, like forgiver of sins, creator of the world, power over evil, temptation by the devil, from a virgin birth of royality all were powerful messages to the pagans in the Greek-Roman eras. The influence of Buddhist monks and Hindu priests became the models for early Christian monasteries and hermit life in the deserts of the Holy Land and Egypt. Even the life after resurrection is found easily in the Egyptian religion as well as the Greek-Buddhist philosophy (read the Book of the Dead from the Egyptians--you die, you lie in wait for three days--then judged, then resurrected). As a note, the Egyptians did not believe in cremating their bodies after death and wore a ankh (a cross) as a medical alert symbol to be buried by those that find their body). Islam is not lost here--their writings show the influence of the Greek-Buddhist-Hindu-Roman-Egyptian mixture throughtout the Koran. Then throw in Zoroastrian and the Mithra religions and the only way of life that was protected by corruption of their books and history were the Jews, whom were teaching the Noahide laws (which are found in the book of Acts of the NT and in Buddhist, in the Koran and even some constitutions of various countries) as a means for everyone to be accepted as righteous equals under the true Creator's laws for mankind. Because of the huge respect philosophers had for the long-established, ethical way of life among the Jews, all the religions between 2nd century before the common era to well into the 10th century of the common era--relied on their scholars to prove they were a replacement for the long-revered Jewish way of life through their own selected "prophets". When Jews refused to accept the so-called "replacement" theories, the love of the Jew turned to hate. Islam could not tolerate their people wanting to be Jews over Islam. Same happened in Christianity with even worse consequences. Early Church Fathers were all in favor of attacking Judaism. The NT is a statement in total, a bid to disavow the Jewish link to the Noah laws and reinvented by the various churches by slandering the very mother of their own Jewish son they embraced as the new creator of the world. Read the history of Martin Luther--he first wrote good things about Jews to lure them to his reinvention of Christianity. When Jews refused he wrote: "Jews and their Lies"--this booklet became the outline to how to deal with Jews by the monster Hitler and continues today with fake news and fake books about Jews, like "The Elders of Zion"--which is revered by millions of Muslims today. While many believe that Jews changed their Bible to eliminate the messages from Christianity and Islam--this is not the case. The Dead Sea Scrolls and the library from Cairo--both have Hebrew Bibles that date from the time of Ezra the Great--long before the common era--and are the same Hebrew today as it was then--actually, a Hebrew Bible from China or Iran or Japan or Brazil or Peru or Russia or Sweden, etc. are globally the same today as it was over 2500 years ago. The political, material, monetary influences to make changes within the various cultures that spread their view of religion around the globe is a shadow that falls not far from modern scholars and historians.
This is rather simple: the path is created as more pawns are placed. Once a pawn is on the board covering a square, it reduces the amount of squares left to choose from. The number represented on the square is required to land on that spot. A roll of One lands you on the first square indicated by a rosette. Players each start on the first rosette, but on opposite sides of the first twelve squares of the board, move across the bridge, and into the "courtyard". From there they must cross the final rosette to claim victory for that pawn. The first player with all pawns victorious wins.
The plates were made of almost 99% copper. I wouldn't classify that in the "cheap" metal category. Also how often do poor Ecuador people come across copper that pure to create fake artifacts with? The materials were tested and the makeup was published on live TV on the Discovery channel for anyone interested in viewing.
Thank you, Ancient Origins, for sharing this story with us all. It is only one of many accounts in ancient and more recent times. A famous colourful wood-cutting depicts a "sky battle" seen in Nuremberg, Germany in 1561. Alien sonic technology is also alleged to have destroyed walls around the City of Tyre allowing Alexander the Great to enter therein and destroy the unfortunate inhabitants. UFOs have also been repeatedly spotted at the end of major wars and before plagues. It is alleged that such suffering is triggered for the aliens to have a harvest of human meat and blood for consumption. Ghastly and mind-blowing as this seems, I would recommend readers to read "Alien Agenda" on the Bibliotecapleyades website which contains much evidence-including by senior military and by scientists-of alien intervention and manipulation. Best wishes to Ancient Origins and all readers for the New Year of 2019.
I just can’t buy the tomb theory. The pyramids are devoid of any of the self-aggrandizing inscriptions found in known tombs. All of the ancient rulers of this area were so proud of themselves and their accomplishments that they wanted everyone in eternity to know about them. If these buildings were tombs, they would be inscribed at the very least with their Book of The Dead.
Just because a number of learned academics buy into the prevailing theory does not mean it’s correct. Most of them continued to believe that Egypt had the earliest “advanced” civilization on earth before Gobekli Tepe’s age was proven, and some still refuse to accept it. And now, Gunung Padang threatens to upset the whole apple cart. Any clues as to why there is so much resistance to excavating there – what are they afraid will be found? Evidence that their throries are wrong, I’ll bet.
My Name is Thomas Asia from USA, I want to say thank you to Dr Ogbeifun for the good thing he has done for me,Though am not sure if this is the best forum to show my joy and happiness for what he has done for me but i can't hide my happiness and my Joy so i have to share it with people, my marriage got crashed about two years ago and i tried all i could within my power but to no avail. i saw post and testimonies about the good things Dr Ogbeifun has been doing so i decided to give it a try. though he is always a busy man but when he responded back to my email, he gave me 48 hours for my marriage to be restored really just like he said my marriage was restored since then I am happy and i am living happily i am so grateful to Dr Ogbeifun you can always email him here if you want to restored your marriage: [email protected] call or add him on whatsapp +2348102574680
There’s no way to know how many times this has been copied – going to loose a little definition every time it’s copied. Too bad we don’t have the original glass plate – that would solve a lot of questions.
I'd like to take the time and thank the staff at Ancient Origins. Maintaining this site has to be arduous but, as a result I have really enjoyed the articles (as well as the posts) and look forward in the upcoming years composure of. Great job!
Those seem to me to be much more sophisticated than Stonehenge. The finish and etching/decoration appears many multiples of generations removed. How certain are they of the dating?
I expect the builders did use some sort of string or rope to measure the layout, but using differing numbers of wraps seems a real stretch to me. Measurement standards are typically more uniform and standardized. That is, after all their proposed theory, and to me, is disproven by their own observations.
I am an Egyptian Egyptologist and former head of the dept. of Archaeology. As a historian I believe we cannot afford to ignore any sources. In my experience also oral tradition and things people learn from their ancestors, tend to be based on fact and we discover later that they are true. If the Egyptians say the one who unified Egypt was Mena then history will later show they were right. Notice they still call their country Masr or Misr, one of its most ancient names.

Isn’t it a bit weird to call the Norse religion ‘Pagan’? That is a derogatory term for all polythistic religions only in relation to Christianity / monotheism.
Why not simply say the first Temple to the Norse Gods...? Why maintain the implicit judgment of the supremacy of Ibrahimic religions in your reporting?
It does seem like an awful lot of steps. I won't dispute that the Gospel writers were familiar with the stories needed to be influenced in this manner, as you seem to have sources for it (which I'll explore one day). But the theory requires an awful lot of steps and has the feel of reaching to justify the inferences.
It seems like we could get about as far in our analysis by saying that the Gospel writers had many potential influences for the story of "Divine being in human form walking on water." And, to me at least, that's not quite the same claim as that Orion and Jesus represented the same figure, which is what seems to be argued here.

The cutting edge of the khopesh is on the convex side of the sword. If it were on the concave side, as stated, it would be a sickle.

I think it’s to make the creature more difficult to identify and therefore discredit the picture
Nice article but the title is a bit click bait as you barely mention the subject in the article.
louvada seja a Deusa eternamente
I’ll just tell my wife it’s a divine inspiration from now on!
