Consider the Evidence

I want to present to you, dear reader, evidence to consider.  Once again, put away your preconceptions and consider the evidence for what it is.  Consider the possibility that what this evidence indicates may be true and what the implications of that conclusion may be.

Modern Egyptology’s timeline is based largely on one man’s writing.  The source of Egypt’s chronology is Manetho’s Aegyptica. Manetho lived, it is believed, some time during the reigns of Ptolemy I – Ptolemy III.  This is about the same time that Ptolemy II called upon 70 (or 72) scholars to translate the historical texts of Judah into Greek.  This chronology is more popularly known as the Septuigent which is represented by the Roman numerals LXX.

Among the contents of the LXX are the scrolls which we call the Old Testament which contains the Torah.  The Torah and The Prophets have enjoyed, previous to and subsequent from the writing of the LXX, a very strict process to ensure their contents are the same as that of the original writings as far back as Moses.

Manetho was a priest of Ra.  He coined the term “dynasty” (which is the Greek word dynesteia.)  Manetho admits to using oral traditions, myths and legends in  his historical account.  There are several other contrasts between Manetho’s Aegyptiaca’s king list and archaeological finds.

So we have two sources of ancient history.  One written by 70 to 72 scholars and one compiled by one man.  The world has chosen to accept the one compiled by one man and is now the necessity to amend this its timeline as new evidence has come forth.

In Egyptian history there is a man named Imhotep.  There are many named Imhotep but I am writing about the first one.  Imhotep was famous for many things, not least of which was saving Egypt from a seven year famine.  He did this by building granary cities and storing surplus grain from the years prior to the famine.  Imhotep purchased all of the land of Egypt for Pharoah.  The only lands not purchased were those that the Pharoah had given to the priests.  You need not take my word for it.  The above information can be found on a stone dug up from Sehel Island which is in the Nile near Aswan.  The Famine Stele tells of a seven year famine during the reign of Pharoah Djoser.

Imhotep was known as an interpreter of dreams.  He was the architect of the first pyramids.  He married the daughter of the priest of On.  He lived to 110 years of age. A tomb believed to be that of Imhotep has been found but the sarcophagus contains no bones.

Imhotep was so popular, many named their children after him.  He was associated with the Egyptian god, Thoth.  The Egyptian god of wisdom and learning.  It was even believed that Imhotep was the successor to Thoth. Imhotep was also one of twelve siblings.
