Account of Sethos
Sethos, according to Herodotus, was a priest of Hephaestus (the Greek name for the Egyptian god Ptah) who rose to become the king of Egypt.
His story is particularly noted for the divine intervention that saved Egypt from an Assyrian invasion.
Herodotus does not provide much detail on how Sethos transitioned from a priest to a king, but his ascension indicates the intertwining of religious and royal authority in Egypt.
This decision weakened his support among Egypt's military elite.
During Sethos' reign, Egypt faced a significant threat from Sennacherib, the king of Assyria.
Sennacherib led a powerful army against Egypt.
"In his reign, Sennacherib king of the Arabians and Assyrians marched a great army against Egypt".
Account of Cheops
"After Cheops, his brother Chephren reigned over Egypt.
Ancient Egypt – 11,800 BCE
This assertion is found in his work "Histories," where he writes about the long and storied past of Egypt as relayed to him by Egyptian priests and sources.
Herodotus' estimate of Egyptian history is much longer than the modern understanding, which places the beginning of the Pharaonic era around 3100 BCE with the unification of Upper and Lower Egypt under the first pharaoh, Narmer.
Herodotus did not provide specific details about this early period, but he described the antiquity of Egypt as relayed by Egyptian priests.
Herodotus describes the unification of Egypt under Menes.
"Menes, who was the first king of Egypt, raised the whole country around Memphis into a dam" (Histories, Book 2, 2.99).
"Egypt was invaded by a great army of foreigners" (Histories, Book 2, 2.154).
This event is beyond Herodotus' time, but he sets the stage for Egypt's long history leading up to foreign rule.
The first king of Egypt who unified Upper and Lower Egypt.
"Menes, who was the first king of Egypt, raised the whole country around Memphis into a dam" (Histories, Book 2, 2.99).
A Kushite king who ruled Egypt during the 25th Dynasty.
Founder of the 26th Dynasty who reunited Egypt.
Mummification
Therefore, the references to mummification in the books by Bridgman-Metchum and Donnelly are likely their interpretations and expansions of the cultural practices of a hypothetical advanced civilization like Atlantis, influenced by known practices from ancient civilizations such as Egypt, rather than direct citations from Plato's works.
Atlantis’ Readings
Over its years of destruction, Atlanteans migrated to other parts of the world, including ancient Egypt and the Yucatan Peninsula, where they brought with them their technological advancements, beliefs, and recorded history.
From there it moved partly to Egypt.
From Atlantis this name came to the capital of Egypt.
The origin of our alphabet
Sir Henry Rawlinson suggests that the principles of writing in Chaldea and Egypt are so similar that they must have been developed before the Hamitic race divided ("The Original Invention of Writing").
Atlantis reconstructed
The plough, a significant agricultural tool, was present in ancient Egypt and Peru, implying its use in Atlantis.
The antiquity of some of our great inventions
Iron was known in ancient Egypt and Northern Europe long before contact with the Greeks or Romans.
Papyrus was used in ancient Egypt, while in Mexico and Peru, various forms of paper were common.
Agricultural practices, including the cultivation of many modern plants, were established in ancient Egypt.
The Colonies of Atlantis
He found ruins in Central America as vast and impressive as those in Egypt, with some cities covering areas up to six miles in diameter.
Civilizational Similarities: There is a significant resemblance between the civilizations of Egypt and those of ancient American nations, indicating a shared cultural and technological foundation likely derived from Atlantis.
Presence of Pyramids: Both Egypt and ancient American civilizations constructed pyramids, a significant architectural link that suggests a common origin.
This implies that Atlanteans brought this knowledge to Egypt.
External Origins of Civilization: There is no evidence that Egyptian civilization developed independently in Egypt.
Technological and Scientific Knowledge: The advanced mathematical, astronomical, and medical knowledge of the Egyptians indicates a high level of civilization that likely developed over millennia in Atlantis before being transferred to Egypt.
Construction of Earthworks: The Mound Builders created large structures of earth and stone, including great pyramidal mounds similar to those found in Mexico and Egypt.
During the fourth dynasty of Egypt (circa 3500 B.C.), the Iberians had become powerful enough to attempt world conquest.
Tamahu Invaders: Egyptian monuments depict blond tribes from the West, known as Tamahu, invading Lower Egypt around 1500 BCE.
The Milesians' history, involving Egypt, Crete, Scythia, and Africa, reinforces their connection to Atlantis.
Keen or Lament for the Dead: Still found in Algeria and Upper Egypt.
The Pyramid, the cross and the Garden of Eden
"In Egypt, Assyria, and Britain it was emblematical of creative power and eternity; in India, China, and Scandinavia, of heaven and immortality; in the two Americas, of rejuvenescence and freedom from physical suffering; while in both hemispheres it was the common symbol of the resurrection, or 'the sign of the life to come;' and, finally, in all heathen communities, without exception, it was the emphatic type, the sole enduring evidence, of the Divine Unity.
"Phison," he tells us, "denotes a multitude; it ran into India; the Euphrates and Tigris go down into the Red Sea while the Geon runs through Egypt."
"The wise men, previous to the Flood, foreseeing an impending Judgment from heaven, either by submersion or fire, which would destroy every created thing, built upon the tops of the mountains in Upper Egypt many pyramids of stone, in order to have some refuge against the approaching calamity.
This tradition locates these monster structures upon the mountains of Upper Egypt, but there are no buildings of such dimensions to be found anywhere in Egypt.
Were not the pyramids of Egypt and America imitations of similar structures in Atlantis?
He conceived the use to which pyramids in particular were anciently applied to have been threefold--namely, as tombs, temples, and observatories; and this view he labors to establish in the third volume of his 'Indian Antiquities.' Now, whatever may be their actual date, or with whatsoever people they may have originated, whether in Africa or Asia, in the lower valley of the Nile or in the plains of Chaldea, the pyramids of Egypt were unquestionably destined to very opposite purposes.
Those accompaniments, however, are disposed without any particular regard to order, but the four arms of the cross, nevertheless, severally and accurately point to the cardinal quarters, The same regularity is observable on a much smaller but not less curious monument, which was discovered some time since in an ancient Peruvian huaca or catacomb--namely, a syrinx or pandean pipe, cut out of a solid mass of lapis ollaris, the sides of which are profusely ornamented, not only with Maltese crosses, but also with other symbols very similar in style to those inscribed on the obelisks of Egypt and on the monoliths of this country.
There the stupendous labors of Egypt are rivalled, and sometimes surpassed.
The great pyramid of Egypt, Cheops, is 746 feet square, 450 feet high, and covers between twelve and thirteen acres.
Señor Garcia y Cubas thinks the pyramids of Teotihuacan (Mexico) were built for the same purpose as those of Egypt.
And there is in Egypt another form of pyramid called the mastaba, which, like the Mexican, was flattened on the top; while in Assyria structures flattened like the Mexican are found.
PYRAMIDS OF EGYPT.
Humboldt considered the Pyramid of Cholula of the same type as the Temple of Jupiter Belus, the pyramids of Meidoun Dachhour, and the group of Sakkarah, in Egypt.
In both America and Egypt the pyramids were used as places of sepulture; and it is a remarkable fact that the system of earthworks and mounds, kindred to the pyramids, is found even in England.
The Gods of the Phoenicians also kings of Atlantis
Chronos traveled to different regions of the habitable world, giving Egypt as a kingdom to the god Taaut, who invented the alphabet.
The learning of Egypt, Greece, and Judea, as claimed by Sanchoniathon, was derived from the Phoenicians.
The kings of Atlantis become the Gods of the Greeks
Egypt: In early ages, the Egyptians worshipped the sun and planets.
Ad-, Atl-, At-, Atlantis
His sons, Shadid and Shedad, succeeded him, with Shedad becoming a notable conqueror, said to have subdued all of Arabia and parts of Syria and Egypt.
The Identity of the Civilizations of the Old World and the New
In both Egypt and the Americas (Peru, Mexico, Central America), architectural structures share striking similarities.
Obelisks covered with hieroglyphics in Egypt find their counterparts in the round columns of Central America, both possibly originating from phallic worship.
The art of painting was highly developed in both regions, with wall paintings in Central American temples comparable to those in Egypt.
Engraving on pillars was practiced by the Atlanteans, a tradition continued by the American civilizations, Egypt, Phœnicia, and Assyria.
Kings in both Egypt and Peru participated in annual ploughing ceremonies, dignifying and consecrating the occupation.
This mirrored the religious practices in Peru, Egypt, and other ancient civilizations.
Couvade
The practice can be traced back to Ancient Egypt, where it was a "sacred birth custom." When a child was born, the father would undergo a ritual of "labor," which included bed rest, fasting, purification, and observing certain taboos.
Civilization – A shared Origin
The torch of civilization passed from Phœnicia, Egypt, Chaldea, India, Greece, to Rome, without significant improvement in arts like architecture, metallurgy, and navigation until modern times.
The civilization of Egypt appeared fully mature from its earliest days, with advanced architecture, sculpture, and a monotheistic religion, later corrupted into polytheism.
Beginning of the 5th Root Race
The migrants traveled on foot through Egypt to Arabia, settling in the Arabian highlands.
Some groups remained loyal to Manu, while others settled comfortably in Egypt, leading to conflict and eventual slaughter by Egyptians.
The pyramids were built, and the Toltecs ruled Egypt.
C., He called them to the coast, that they might be shipped off through the Sahara Sea, whence they travelled forwards on foot by the south of Egypt to Arabia.
(The Atlanteans had conquered Egypt and were ruling the country at this period.
They had built the pyramids, on which Cheops put his name many thousands of years later; when Egypt was swamped by a flood, some seventy-seven thousand years ago, the people tried to climb these pyramids for safety, as the waters rose, but failed in consequence of the smoothness of their sides.
Suffice it that a splendid Toltec civilisation was flourishing in Egypt when our emigrants passed along its borders, and the Egyptian Ruler, following the Toltec tradition that other races existed in order that the Toltecs might exploit them, tried to bribe them into remaining in his land.
Some succumbed to the temptation and remained in lower Egypt, in defiance of the Manu's command, to become, a little later, slaves to the dominant Toltecs.
They proposed to kill all the people who were not wholly devoted to the Manu, and prepared to fight the deserters, who had settled down comfortably in Egypt.
The few Egyptian soldiers who finally escaped and reached Egypt were incontinently put to death, as having disgraced the army by their defeat.
From time to time emigrants left the main body, some settling in the south of Palestine and some in the south of Egypt ; and these movements were encouraged by the representatives of the Manu, for the plateau was limited in size and became crowded to an uncomfortable extent.
The Himalayas were heaved up a little higher; the land to the south of India was submerged with its population; Egypt was drowned, and only the pyramids were left standing; the tongue of land which stretched from Egypt to what are now Morocco and Algeria disappeared, and the two countries remained as an island, washed by the Mediterranean and the Sahara Sea.
Atlantean Peruvian Civilization
Egypt and India in their Atlantean periods, offered other examples, but, on the whole, the chief features of the Toltec Empire are best reproduced in the Peru which is here described.
The Civilisation of Atlantis
Places like Egypt, Mesopotamia, India, and the Americas experienced their presence and the empires they created.
Egypt, Mesopotamia, India, North and South America, knew them, and the Empires they raised endured for long, and reached a point of glory that the Aryan Race has not yet overtopped.
To Gaelic Tír fo Thuinn was an advanced civilization
Furthermore, Father Seán elaborates on how these survivors might have contributed to the formation of mystery schools and esoteric traditions in various ancient civilizations, including Egypt, through their advanced knowledge and spiritual teachings.
Legend of the Grand Canyon
Some say there are things from Egypt, but I have not seen anything, and nobody seems to know about it.
Ancient cinnamon
Cinnamon can help us understand the trading routes between Egypt and India.
It was imported into Egypt as early as 2000 BC, although the cinnamon referred to in ancient texts was often confused with Cinnamomum cassia, a related species from China.
In ancient Egypt, cinnamon was utilized for embalming mummies.
A populated universe
You get to the Ten Commandments, and the people are commanded to forget the other powerful ones and serve only this one.[3:21] You get to Joshua, and he says don’t work for the powerful ones of Egypt or Mesopotamia, don’t serve the dragon of Egypt, serve Yahweh, the leader of us.
If you think that’s just a coincidence, then put Yah alongside chhh.[43:50] When Joshua stands up and says, "Don’t work for the powerful ones of Egypt, serve Yahweh," the words themselves tell you he’s talking about very similar entities.[43:01] Yahweh is the dragon of Egypt.
Atlantis – Taurid meteor shower
Many people on your planet today imagine Atlantis with Grecian architecture due to ancient stories from Egypt passed to Greece, but the closest representation of Atlantean architecture is Aztec architecture: large stone blocks and pyramids like those in Central and South America.
Before the final destruction, the Atlanteans, observing the comet and understanding their time was running out, migrated to preserve their culture, knowledge, and civilization in South America, Africa, Europe, and eventually Egypt.
King David
Comparative studies of ancient Near Eastern texts and inscriptions from neighboring civilizations, such as Egypt and Assyria, help place the biblical narratives within a broader historical framework.
Phoenix
A phoenix is a mythical bird known for its cycle of death and rebirth, featuring prominently in various mythologies, particularly those of ancient Egypt, Greece, Rome, and later in medieval European folklore.
He describes it as a sacred bird in Egypt that visits Heliopolis every 500 years.
In Egypt, there is a certain sacred bird called the phoenix.
It is exceedingly rare and only comes to Egypt once every 500 years.
The story goes that the phoenix travels from Arabia to Egypt carrying its deceased parent encased in a ball of myrrh.
The phoenix places this ball on the altar of the Sun in Heliopolis, an ancient city in Egypt dedicated to the worship of the sun god.
The newly reborn phoenix then gathers the ashes of its parent into an egg made of myrrh and flies to the temple of the sun god in Heliopolis, Egypt.
Numerology
The fall of Atlantis led to the dissemination of this knowledge to other ancient civilizations like Egypt and Mesoamerica, where it influenced their understanding and use of numerology.
Transport of the Ark of the Covenant
1 YHWH Elohim spoke to Moses in the tent of meeting in the Desert of Sinai on the first day of the second month of the second year after the Israelites came out of Egypt. He said: 2 “Take a census of the whole Israelite community by their clans and families, listing every man by name, one by one.
13 for all the firstborn are mine. When I struck down all the firstborn in Egypt, I set apart for myself every firstborn in Israel, whether human or animal.
