Genesis Apocryphon
Eventually members of the Egyptian court visit Abram and Sarai, and one attendant, Hyrcanos describes Sarai's wondrous beauty in a poem.
Abram & Sarai
[9] And Abram journeyed, going on still toward the south.[10] And there was a famine extreme and widespread scarcity of food in the land: and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn temporarily resides there; for the famine extreme and widespread scarcity of food was grievous in the land.[11] And it came to pass, when he was come near to enter into Egypt, that he said unto Sarai his wife, Behold now, I know that thou art a fair woman to look upon:[12] Therefore it shall come to pass, when the Egyptians shall see thee, that they shall say, This is his wife: and they will kill me, but they will save thee you alive.[13] Say, I pray thee, thou art my sister: that it may be well with me for thy sake; and my soul shall live because of thee you.[14] And it came to pass, that, when Abram was come into Egypt, the Egyptians beheld the woman that she was very fair.[15] The princes also of Pharaoh saw her, and commended her before Pharaoh: and the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house.[16] And he entreated Abram well for her sake: and he had sheep, and oxen, and he asses, and menservants, and maidservants, and she asses donkeys, and camels.
In this passage, when Abram (later known as Abraham) and Sarai (later known as Sarah) entered Egypt due to a famine in the land of Canaan, Abram feared that the Egyptians would kill him because Sarai was very beautiful.
Cleopatra was the last pharaoh of ancient Egypt and played a significant role in the events leading up to the demise of the Egyptian pharaonic rule.
These female pharaohs were exceptions in the predominantly male-oriented ancient Egyptian society, but their reigns left a lasting impact on the history of Egypt.
Red Pyramid: a Fertilizer Factory
They didn't have the structure of an Egyptian or a Roman or Greek structure.
Named for the rusty reddish hue of its red limestone stones, it is also the third largest Egyptian pyramid, after those of Khufu and Khafre at Giza.
Ancient Egypt: The ancient Egyptians, around 5,000 years ago, practiced advanced agricultural techniques along the Nile River.
Noah’s offspring
Ham is traditionally considered the ancestor of peoples in Africa and parts of the Near East, including the Egyptians (Mizraim), Ethiopians (Cush), Libyans (Put), and Canaanites.
The Rosetta Stone
It contains an inscription in three scripts: Greek, Egyptian hieroglyphs, and Egyptian demotic script.
The stone was significant because it provided the key to deciphering Egyptian hieroglyphs.
Jean-François Champollion, a French scholar, successfully deciphered the hieroglyphs in 1822 by comparing them with the known Greek text, unlocking the mysteries of ancient Egyptian civilization.
"The council and the priests and the people having resolved at the assembly, it seemed good to them to honours king Ptolemy, the ever-living, the beloved of Ptah, the god Epiphanes Eucharistos; for his piety towards the gods, and his beneficence towards his parents; and his love of his country; and his kind disposition towards the Senators and People of Alexandria; and his equity in regard to every part of Egypt; and his having restored the country of the Egyptians, when it was oppressed by the Syrians, and the Libyans, and the Kappadokians, and the Arabs, —tribes that had been destroyed of old by his father Ptolemy the ever-living, —and had settled there as guards of the country, after he had expelled the afore-mentioned nations, and those who were in the cities and the temples, and every rank of men and every family of distinction, every one of whom he restored to his place and his privileges."
Ancient Egypt and the relationships with the stars
The ancient Egyptians were keen observers of the night sky and developed an extensive knowledge of astronomy and astrology, which they used to create a calendar, predict the flood of the Nile, and guide their religious practices.
One of the most important celestial bodies in ancient Egyptian beliefs was the sun, which they worshiped as the god Ra.
The stars also played an important role in ancient Egyptian beliefs, particularly the constellation of Orion, which was associated with the god Osiris, the god of the afterlife.
Other important stars in ancient Egyptian beliefs include Sirius, which was associated with the goddess Isis and the annual flooding of the Nile, and the planet Venus, which was associated with the goddess Hathor and fertility.
The Great Pyramid of Thoth, not Khufu
The Great Pyramid of Giza, the largest Egyptian pyramid, served as the tomb for pharaoh Khufu during the Fourth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom.
Ancient Egyptians used seked – how much run for one cubit of rise – to describe slopes.
Atlanteans
Donnelly said the existence of Atlantis could explain unusual similarities between widely separated cultures, such as the ancient Egyptians and the Indians of Central and South America.
— Atlanteans comprised at least two races, a small and dark-brown, reddish race similar to Egyptians, Berbers and Central Americans, and a large, white race similar to the Greeks, Goths, Celts and Scandinavians.
The Pleiadians
Athor (Egyptian)
In the ancient Egyptian calendar, the same resemblance can be traced between the name of the Pleiades, which among the Hebrews and Chaldeans is Athor-Aye, with that of the Egyptian month of November, which is Athor.
The Sirians
Sirius and Ancient Egypt: Ancient Egyptians had connections with beings from Sirius.
The Sirius star system is important in ancient Egyptian mythology.
Anunnaki gods list
He claimed that the Annunaki genetically engineered early humans to serve as their workers and that they were responsible for many of the technological and cultural advances of ancient civilizations, including the Sumerians, Egyptians, and Mayans.
Our history
The Egyptian civilization emerged along the Nile River in northeastern Africa, and it is one of the oldest civilizations in the world.
The Egyptians were known for their impressive architecture, such as the pyramids and temples, as well as their advanced writing system and religion
In 1991, Professor Schoch scientifically dated the Sphinx to thousands of years prior to the time of the Egyptian pharaohs, having been constructed at the end of the last ice age.
The blue beings
In ancient Egyptian religion, the god Amun was often depicted with blue skin, and was associated with the underworld and the dead.
Depictions of Osiris with blue skin are relatively rare in ancient Egyptian art, and most depictions show him with green or black skin, which was more commonly used to represent fertility, vegetation, and rebirth.
