"An inscription which I excavated at the Lion Gate at Mycenae in Crete recites that Misor, from whom, according to the inscription, the Egyptians were descended, was the child of Taaut or Thoth, the God of History, and that Taaut was the emigrated son of a 'priest of Atlantis, who having fallen in love with a daughter of King Chronos, escaped and landed after many wanderings in Egypt.' He built the first temple at Sais and there taught the wisdom of his native land.
Misor gave birth to Taaut, the god of letters, the inventor of the alphabet, and Taaut became Thoth, the god of history of the Egyptians.
Sanchoniathon tells us that "Chronos (king of Atlantis) visited the South, and gave all Egypt to the god Taaut, that it might be his kingdom." "Misor" is probably the king "Mestor" named by Plato.
He gave Egypt as a kingdom to the god Taaut, who had invented the alphabet.
Sanchoniathon tells us, after narrating all the discoveries by which the people advanced to civilization, that the Cabiri set down their records of the past by the command of the god Taaut, "and they delivered them to their successors and to foreigners, of whom one was Isiris (Osiris), the inventor of the three letters, the brother of Chua, who is called the first Phœnician."
[paragraph continues]Maya, were supplied by imitating the Maya sign for b; and it is a curious fact that while the Phœnician legends claim that Taaut invented the art of writing, yet they tell us that Taaut made records, and "delivered them to his successors and to foreigners, of whom one was Isiris (Osiris, the Egyptian god), the inventor of the three letters." Did these three letters include the d and r, which they did not receive from the Atlantean alphabet, as represented to us by the Maya alphabet?
Chronos traveled to different regions of the habitable world, giving Egypt as a kingdom to the god Taaut, who invented the alphabet.
The Cabiri set down records of the past by the command of Taaut, passing them on to foreigners, including Isiris (Osiris), the inventor of the three letters, and the first Phoenician.
Taaut (Phoenicians)
Misor fathered Taaut, the god of letters and the inventor of the alphabet, who became the Egyptian Thoth, the god of history.
Taaut (Taautos or Tauthos)
Chronos traveled to different regions of the habitable world, giving Egypt as a kingdom to the god Taaut, who invented the alphabet. The Egyptians called him Thoth, and he was depicted as “the god of letters, the clerk of the under-world,” bearing a tablet, pen, and palm-branch.
