going from Glyph to German to English , hoping to discern clear and accurate adverbs and metaphors, doesn't make translation any easier. TTBOMK German was/is a prerequisite for studying Egyptian Archaeology/Oriental Studies/Egyptology. I have a number of Books and Papers in German, and a primer. I won't be making any breakthrough in translation any time soon. Warwickby Warwick L Nixon - Ancient Egypt
would viewing an eclipse have been seen as a ball in front of a ball or a disk in front of a disk? Warwickby Warwick L Nixon - Ancient Egypt
exactly. one can only wonder how much more could have been Gleaned from Tut's tomb if only it had been found a 100 years later than it was. Carter's diligence notwithstanding. Warwickby Warwick L Nixon - Ancient Egypt
thanks for this and the key search words it includes. everything I've seen points to the east west pathway as being predominant tho the N/S was seen in their sky ie The Milky Way. but circumpolar pathway......I don't know enough to dispute it. thanks again for the suggested reading Warwickby Warwick L Nixon - Ancient Egypt

at a Vikings exhibit at the Royal BC Museum ( and at other museums on the world tour) they had a display involving a bits of wood and metal that were the remains of one of their longboats. Just as forensic anthropologist lays out bones on a table where they would go, no matter how few are extant... they hung string from the sealing attaching the bits where they would exist in 3d space whby Warwick L Nixon - Ancient Egypt
I think any orientation to the stars is symbolic. Bauval's was based on a approx. 10,000 BCE alignment. Warwickby Warwick L Nixon - Ancient Egypt
most of the visible changes in stone are due to changing from one quarry to the next. No 2 striking of limestone are similar. various density porosity hardness etc etc. Warwickby Warwick L Nixon - Ancient Egypt
I stand corrected. But I still dispute the snakes and scarabs suggestion. The symbolism and/or function of the shafts is still very much open to debate . Warwickby Warwick L Nixon - Ancient Egypt
well, if the tale is true, they could only have put them as far down as they could reach. So mother cat only had to go that short distance to retrieve them. Pistol and Mark are barking down the wrong shaft imho. Warwickby Warwick L Nixon - Ancient Egypt

Jim Lewandewski (can't remember the exact spelling) he posted his nonsense about Akhenaten more mindlessly and vociferously than a certain other poster here bangs on about ramps and geysers. Roxana will remember, I'll PM her Warwickby Warwick L Nixon - Ancient Egypt

you cannot be serious? has this discussion been reduced to making things up just for the sake of being contrary? That is ridiculous! Warwickby Warwick L Nixon - Ancient Egypt
Amen, to that. Remember Jim L ??? Warwickby Warwick L Nixon - Ancient Egypt
I do not reject the views of Stadelmann. Neither do I reject the views of Petrie, Fahkry, Verner, Lehner, Romer, Bauval or Wilkinson, to name a few. All these disagree with each other on numerous salient points. They all agree that G1 indicates that their beliefs and the role of the King were going through change.. Just what that change was, and how it was symbolised is very much stillby Warwick L Nixon - Ancient Egypt
AFAIC all the dynastic assignations are very much arbitrary. Fotunately tho, Akhenaten's line of succession ie his family tree is one of the better known. as is that of the Ramessids . Horemheb is more or less a 3rd intermediary period, all on his own. Warwby Warwick L Nixon - Ancient Egypt
Hans asks which is the most typical Large stone Pyramid? I have to ask what you mean by typical. How far to the center do I have to set my blinders? or rather how wide am I allowed to open them before answering? I hope you realise that I am not being obtuse. Rather I am underling what I believe to be the trouble with 99% of 'solutions' to G1 that we have 'weighed' herby Warwick L Nixon - Ancient Egypt
So? Seriously tho. I am aware that Khufu's has more bells and whistles internally. But there is more to a pyramid complex than the inside of the pyramid itself. The are numerous theories regarding that internal symbolism. Indeed there are even more that assign totally different functions to the GP. Ironically, most of the latter ass of onign no such "alternate" ffunby Warwick L Nixon - Ancient Egypt

It's Limestone! Limestone is porous sedimentary rock. the Pyramid is not solid Limestone or granite. it is filled with marl and sand filled gaps. and million of micro gaps between stones that are not smooth surfaced but rough at the Micro level. The Pyramid is not airtight One of the preconditions of your theory is an airtight environment. I can't put it any simplerby Warwick L Nixon - Ancient Egypt
what do you suppose the room temperature inside the King's Chamber was in the newly constructed and supposedly, by you, airtight) pyramid a 4 in the after noon on a sunny day in July??

and here we go again. a poster is encouraged to post here by another poster. once poster 1 creates an opening, poster 2 hijacks the thread to bang on about ramps.....having said absolutely nothing concerning the possibility, probability, or plausibility of poster 1's Topic.
