Don,


So ? What are you trying to say with your reply ? Remains my question ; 'The Star of David originated in the Middle Ages. What on Earth has it to do with the Ancient Egyptian 4th Dynasty ?'

We are contronted here with a time-gap of approx. 1950 years between Giza and the earliest known use of the hexagram in question. So what is your legitimate motivation to use David's Star onto Giza ?

Alternative thinkers apparantly don't have the slightest problems with unexplicable time-gaps. In the same context as your Star of David, Scott don't has any scientifically founded explanation to justify the multiple millenia-gap (8 millenia, not only 6, as I wrote a few topics ago) between the arrangement of the Orion Belt approx. 10500 BC and the AE 4th Dynasty.
