Historical novel set in the late First Intermediate Period Egypt, some four thousand years before our time: The glorious era of the great pyramid builders is long gone, and the kingdom is divided into two parts which are ruled from Neni-Nesut in the north and Waset in the south.

The Bible describes lots of toys and technologies. Our forefathers thought these toys were divine. Some of the toys were created to do the Gods' desires. Man is part of such toys and just like man, other toys were desired and created. Sometimes, toys were used to design other toys. Meanwhile, man thought that such toys were divine. Today, we are also designing other toys. We have designed toys that are now probing mars. We shall soon send other toys to other planets like the Gods sent toys to Earth. However, man decided to ascribe to such toys -- divinity. Our forefathers were not confused....

Throughout Egyptian history, we see that gods who had once been favored were set aside or had their roles altered in order to make way for gods whose cults became more popular, while political changes, such as the conquest of Egypt by Alexander the Great, ushered in cultural and religious exchanges that both affected native Egyptian religious practices and also had an impact on the religious beliefs of Greece and Rome. Only a select number of deities and concepts are discussed here. Some of these are more well-known deities, while others might not be as familiar to modern listeners.

En el sur de Irak hay un silencio aplastante sobre las dunas. Durante casi 5.000 años, las arenas del desierto iraquí han mantenido los restos de la civilización conocida más antigua: los sumerios. Cuando los arqueólogos estadounidenses descubrieron una colección de tablas cuneiformes en Irak a finales del siglo XIX, se encontraron con un idioma y un pueblo que en aquel momento apenas eran conocidos por los estudiosos especializados en la antigua Mesopotamia.

During the several centuries that ancient Egypt stood as one of the greatest civilizations of the ancient world, its three primary enemies were the Libyans who occupied the Western Desert, the so-called Asiatics who lived in the Levant, and finally the Nubians to Egypt's south. Among the three peoples, the Nubians were the most "Egyptianized" and at times were integral to the development of Egyptian history. Truly, the Nubians were the greatest of all sub-Saharan peoples in pre-modern times and deserve to be studied in their own right.

But a woman on the throne defies maat, and even Hatshepsut is not so bold as to risk the safety of the Two Lands for her own ends.

Perhaps not surprisingly given how advanced they were in comparison to contemporaries, the Egyptians invented one of the first writing systems ever, and for centuries, people thought these ancient texts held some sort of secret, be it aliens, advanced technology lost to the world, or mystical cures for all of the world’s ills. Even the ancient Egyptians saw their writing systems as full of mystery and hidden knowledge - according to Egyptian mythology, writing was invented by the ibis-headed god Thoth, the most intellectual of the gods.

Ancient Egyptian (Kemetic) scientific advancements are often underappreciated or unknown to most voices in the contemporary health movement.

While Greek contributions to the healing arts and sciences have been extensive and ...
