Afterlife

Anubis

Hermanubis is a syncretic deity combining elements of the Greek god Hermes and the Egyptian god Anubis.

This fusion reflects the blending of Greek and Egyptian cultures during the Hellenistic period, particularly after the conquests of Alexander the Great and the subsequent rule of the Ptolemaic dynasty in Egypt.

Role: As a psychopomp, Hermanubis helped guide souls to the afterlife, a role critical in both Greek and Egyptian religious traditions.

Depiction: Combining elements of Hermes (the Greek messenger god and guide of souls) and Anubis (the Egyptian god of mummification and protector of the dead), Hermanubis often appears with characteristics of both gods, such as the caduceus of Hermes and the jackal head of Anubis.

Cain

The names Cain and Abel are Latin/English transliterations of the Greek names as found in the Septuagint (2,000 year old Greek translation of the Hebrew).

In Greek, Cain is Καιν (Kain) and Abel is Αβελ (Abel).

These are in turn Greek transliterations of the Hebrew.

Pleiadians

The Pleiadian Influence

In ancient Greek mythology, the Pleiades were the seven daughters of the Titan Atlas and the ocean-nymph Pleione.

From the Greeks and the Aboriginal Australians to the Native Americans, Japanese, Hindus, Chinese, Norse, and Polynesians, the Pleiades have been a source of inspiration, guiding agricultural practices, marking seasonal changes, and symbolizing various spiritual and mythological themes.

The Pleiades, a cluster of stars visible in the night sky, have been significant in various mythologies, including Greek.

In Greek mythology, the Pleiades were the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione, who were transformed into stars by Zeus.

The Pleiades in Greek mythology are directly linked to the stars, and modern Pleiadeans are depicted as star-beings.

In both Greek and modern mysticism, nymphs and Pleiadeans represent a higher state of consciousness and connection to the divine or cosmic order.

Nymphs, as part of the Greek divine hierarchy, represent natural forces and are often intermediaries between gods and humans.

Yahwistic Religion and Its Influence on Abrahamic Religions

The translation of the Hebrew Bible into Greek (the Septuagint) reflects the blending of Jewish and Hellenistic cultures.

The interactions with various empires and cultures, from the Assyrians and Babylonians to the Persians and Hellenistic Greeks, further enriched and diversified Yahwistic religious traditions, contributing to the complex tapestry of Abrahamic religions.

For instance, the letter "h" in Maya is simplified in a manner similar to the archaic Greek and Hebrew forms.

Hercules, an Atlantean deity, was associated with the magnetic stone, referred to as the "Stone of Hercules." Greek mythology tells of Hercules using a magnetic cup to sail the ocean at night, a possible reference to using a magnetic compass.

Greek mythology also hints at the use of explosive materials.

Iron was known in ancient Egypt and Northern Europe long before contact with the Greeks or Romans.

The Cushites, successors of the Atlanteans, established independent municipal republics, a system seen in later civilizations like the Greeks and Romans.

Astronomical knowledge was highly advanced among the Chaldeans, Egyptians, and Greeks, indicating a sophisticated understanding inherited from an earlier civilization.

Ignatius Donnelly

Le Plongeon, an explorer of Yucatan, observed notable similarities between the Maya language and Greek.

He suggested that one-third of the Maya language is pure Greek.

He questioned whether the Greeks brought their dialect to America or the Mayas took theirs to Greece.

Their architecture, such as the Palenque arch, resembles ancient Greek constructions like the "Treasure-house of Atreus" at Mycenae and Etruscan vaults.

The Pyramid, the cross and the Garden of Eden

Andrew, the Maltese, the Greek, the Latin, etc., etc., there is not one among them the existence of which may not be traced to the remotest antiquity.

This was the Olympus of the Greeks, where

It was the Mesomphalos of the earlier Greeks, and the Omphalium of the Cretans, dominating the Elysian fields, upon whose tops, bathed in pure, brilliant, incomparable light, the gods passed their days in ceaseless joys."

And when we turn to the mythology of the Greeks, we find that the origin of the world was ascribed to Okeanos, the ocean, The world was at first an island surrounded by the ocean, as by a great stream:

For instance, "the Greek text, in expressing the invention of Amynos, uses the words κώμας καὶ ποίμνας, which are precisely the same as the terms ôhel umiqneh, which the Bible uses in speaking of the dwellings of the descendants of Jabal (Gen., chap.

"And the title of Ἀλῆται, given to Agros and Agrotes in the Greek of the Phœnician history, fits in wonderfully with the physiognomy of the race of the Cainites in the Bible narrative, whether we take Ἀλῆται simply as a Hellenized transcription of the Semitic Elim, 'the strong, the mighty,' or whether we take it in its Greek acceptation, 'the wanderers;' for such is the destiny of Cain and his race according to the very terms of the condemnation which was inflicted upon him after his crime (Gen.

We have, also, the fact that the Phœnician name for their goddess Astynome (Ashtar No'emâ), whom the Greeks called Nemaun, was the same as the name of the sister of the three sons of Lamech, as given in Genesis--Na'emah, or Na'amah.
