Pre-dynastic Rulers
This marks the approximate beginning of the pre-dynastic period, which is based on archaeological evidence of early settlements and cultural development in the Nile Valley.

Location: Naqada is located on the west bank of the Nile River, approximately 26 kilometers north of Luxor.
Account of Menes
Menes is the first king who founded Memphis and constructed a dam and digged a deep and wide canal redirecting the Nile.
Herodotus describes Menes' significant engineering achievement of creating a dam to divert the Nile River, which allowed the establishment of Memphis.

Similar to Herodotus, Diodorus notes Menes' engineering works, including the construction of a dam to control the Nile's flooding and protect the new city.
Account of Sethos
He then marched with such troops as would follow him and encamped in Pelusium at the mouth of the Nile; here he was joined by a multitude of field mice, which devoured all the quivers and bowstrings of the enemy, and the handles of their shields, so that on the morrow, being unarmed, they were easily overcome" .

The funerary practices of crossing water to reach the tombs on the west bank of the Nile, and the presence of a sacred ark in funeral processions, further suggest an Atlantean influence.
The Pyramid, the cross and the Garden of Eden
"Among the earliest known types is the crux ansata, vulgarly called 'the key of the Nile,' because of its being found sculptured or otherwise represented so frequently upon Egyptian and Coptic monuments.
The reader will not have failed to observe that it is most usually associated with water; it was 'the key of the Nile,' that mystical instrument by means of which, in the popular judgment of his Egyptian devotees, Osiris produced the annual revivifying inundations of the sacred stream; it is discernible in that mysterious pitcher or vase portrayed on the brazen table of Bembus, before-mentioned, with its four lips discharging as many streams of water in opposite directions; it was the emblem of the water-deities of the Babylonians in the East and of the Gothic nations in the West, a
Why should these extraordinary structures crop out on the banks of the Nile, and amid the forests and plains of America?
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.
He considers the analogy established in eleven particulars, as follows: 1, the site chosen is the same; 2, the structures are orientated with slight variation; 3, the line through the centres of the structures is in the astronomical meridian; 4, the construction in grades and steps is the same; 5, in both cases the larger pyramids are dedicated to the sun; 6, the Nile has "a valley of the dead," as in Teotihuacan there is "a street of the dead;" 7, some monuments in each class have the nature of fortifications; 8, the smaller mounds are of the same nature and for the same purpose; 9, both pyramids have a small mound joined to one of their faces; 10, the openings discovered in the Pyramid of the Moon are also found in some Egyptian pyramids; 11, the interior arrangements of the pyramids are analogous.
The God Odin, Woden, or Wotan
Captain Grant, who explored the sources of the Nile, recounts a tunnel under the river Kaōma near Lake Tanganyika, described as wide enough for mounted camels and strewed with white pebbles, allowing passage from sunrise till noon.
Phoenix
It was associated with the flooding of the Nile and creation.
Start with why
Ancient civilizations, like those in Egypt, built temples along natural energy lines, like those of the Nile River, to align with these powerful earth energies.
The chakra temples along the Nile
JJ and Matias claim that some temples along the Nile align with the chakras in our bodies.
Etymology of Egypt
The term "upper" might seem counterintuitive, but it is based on the flow of the Nile River, which originates from the highlands in the south and flows northward to the Mediterranean Sea.
It is "lower" in elevation and "downstream" along the Nile's course.
This region includes the Nile Delta, where the river fans out into multiple branches before entering the Mediterranean Sea.
It means "The Black Land," a reference to the fertile black soils deposited by the Nile's annual flooding, in contrast to the surrounding desolate desert, "Deshret" or "The Red Land."
Mu & Atlantis history

The Chronicle of Akakor
Between 8,000 and 6,000 B.C., Jericho was considered the preliminary stage for urban high civilizations, although Egyptologists suspect an even older culture in the Nile valley.
375) is antiquity, beginning with the rise of the high civilizations in the river oases of the lower Nile and between the Euphrates and Tigris where man develops into historical existence.
Sumerian Cities

The loss of conciousness and the polytheism that started to create a new idea of the temples of the holy places in the River Nile.
Ancient Egypt: The ancient Egyptians, around 5,000 years ago, practiced advanced agricultural techniques along the Nile River.
They used a combination of silt deposits from the annual flooding of the Nile and natural composting to enrich their soil.
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.
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 Sirians
The heliacal rising of Sirius, known as the "Dog Star," marked the flooding of the Nile River, a vital event in the agricultural calendar of ancient Egypt.
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 blue beings
One theory is that the blue skin may represent the color of the Nile River, which was central to the fertility of the land and the success of agriculture in ancient Egypt.
