Musemegypt, a wave of grief for a racial crime in Germany committed against an Egyptian-Muslim woman


Musemegypt, a wave of grief for a racial crime in Germany committed against an Egyptian-Muslim woman.

A German racialist had attacked 32-year old pregnant Egyptian-Muslim woman while his trial in a German court “Dresden”. Days before she was beaten by that male German racialist in a public park where he insulted her referring to her head scarf and offending her religion. On the day of the trial and after been accused for having abused her, suddenly he stabbed her 18 times till death and injured her husband too. The great disappointment comes from the German police officers who stood still the whole time and even someone shot her husband by mistake. The German police officers had an unexpected situation against the murdered woman as they searched her house for any evidence would make her a suspect. The murderer and his extreme hates to Islam represent a bad image for Germany where freedom and democracy is claimed. By Yasser Kamel

Pre-Historic Palette-Naqada III culture. "Special articles"


Pre-Historic Palette-Naqada III culture. "Special articles"

It can be a unique experience for those who are fortunate for being familiar with Egypt Pre-Historic cultures" 6000-3000 B.C", and once they become able to observe it a lot more detailed. The collections of Pre-Historic cultures that are kept in the Egyptian Museum, the British Museum, the Louvre Museum and the others which include very informative and descriptive palettes and tablets refer much to that deeply antique époque. A lot of these tablets were commemoratives and created in record of a victory after a civil war or after a war with other nations such as the commemorative mace cover that describes the unification trial of the Scorpion king "4000 B.C" or the Libyan tablet which depicts an Egyptian defeat to the Tehno Libyan tribes. The pre-historic slate tablet represents the unstable status of Egypt during Naqada III "4000 B.C" and a civil war that was between Naqada culture or Upper-Egypt and northerners of Lower-Egypt. The upper part of the tablet represents captives are bound in poles with stylized arms that grasp each of the captives and in a shape of a war adze. Also we observe carrion-birds that stand still on each pole which emphasize a traditional technique of torture or punishment and that what could have inspired the ancients with the first crucifixion. Also we see the circle that is often found on pre historic tablets and next to that a carving of a high ranking captive is led by elegantly dressed man with a sophisticate rope that has fringes and ornaments. We can observe the high quality of the outfit and the quality of the metal or the stone in each of the war adzes. Generally, carvings represent a busy battle field with corpses of dead soldiers all are bearded with northern appearance similarly to those who were represented in Narmers palette "3200 B.C" and with many carrion-birds around such as vultures and crows. Also a carving of a lion that fierce eats a corpse.

NULLS AND CROSSES

Most of ancient Egyptian temples have on its floor remains and hand carving of games the ancients had known. The forecourts and the areas before the temples gate or Pylons were often left for locals use or for some to wait for a provided service, there ,they practiced some of their traditional games such as what is recently called the Nulls and Crosses. The intellectuals in Ancient Egypt had their own style of games such the Senet which was the first known chess ever and the first form of the traditional game is known as Snakes and Ladders.

Art schools in ancient Egypt. B


Art schools in ancient Egypt. B

The ancient Egyptian artist had known the use of templates and stencils in most of his carvings and wall inscriptions. That technique was beyond the precision and accuracy in every text goes back to ancient Egypt. Whoever the template-use can count reliable, faults and human-errors can evolve. The first example is from Wady Elseboua temple which is about 1200 BC and it is from a wall-inscription. That inscription was pressed on wet blaster and seems the work was done in rush as it resulted dropping some part of the text, the artist forgot to add goddess Isis title "great" then he did over-lab some of the text. .

We have enough evidence that Seth cult goes back to the beginning. Seth, the god and the force of chaos , disorder, confusion, dark and evil seems to be much older and stronger than his rivals in the Nile Delta. The Egyptian museum keeps at the moment the most recent finds of the excavations in the Nile-Delta which includes a terra cotta pot dates back to the Pre-dynastic era, about 4000 BC. That pot was discovered in Tal El Farkha "mound of the bird" the tiny hand carvings represent Seth in his traditional animal shape. Copyrig ©Musegypt

The true significance of Hathor in the Egyptian creed and myth. B

Hathor the mother goddess who protects the newly born child for seven successive days until he/she becomes healthy and safe. The myth of the seven protective Hathors is often repeated in almost every birth-chapel and always ends with the seventh-day party where gods all are invited then Hathor would present her rattle-toy to the child. Modern Egyptians had inherited many of these traditions as they still to celebrate the seventh-day birth party and invites all families and neighbors, then the seven grain-seeds should be scattered on floor of the child's house. Also the rattle-toy is presented to the children. Probably the division of the week to be just seven days world wide is after Hathor patronage. The most charming figure for Hathor is the one that represent her melting with a woman face her triangular face, elongated eyes and ears next to a woman cheeks, chin and mouth. .

Goddess Hathor.Abu Simble Temple,1200 B.C.


King Narmer tablet" a cast carved by Yasser Kamel,black marble.

The true significance of Hathor in the Egyptian creed and myth. A

Hathor the cow-goddess is among the oldest gods in the Egyptian pantheon. Hathor also was one of the most popular goddesses there as she played the role of the holy mother and the wife for many of the ancient triads of deities. Hathor also was the perfect force that "Ra" had required in order to maintain balance between his flaming heat" skhmet" the urging power of the heat and the gentle force of appeasing "Hathor". Indeed the Egyptian myth describes both of the goddesses Hathor and Sekhmet to be the Yen and Yang. Goddess Hathor had to carry" Ra" the sun god out of the "Nun" the water as he sunk into it in order to appease its energy once he established the basic creation. Hathor the Egyptian Yen-force also had signified for the welfare, the prosperity, the wealth, the harmony and the unity. We can observe that powerful meaning in Predynastic and the archaic tablets that describe the unification trials in ancient Egypt and specifically the one belongs to king's Narmer 3200 B.C.
Starting from the Old-kingdom, 2878 B.C Hathor had become to represent the love, the joy and the maternity. Further on, Hathor was seen representing mainly the joy, the fun, the drunkenness and the fertility. The Bible and the Quraan brought us a very similar historical tale about an ancient Egyptian king and Joseph the prophet and it mentions the king in Egypt to suffer form a successive scary visions and he panicked then asked for counseling the dream-interpreters he had and none of them could help then they released Joseph from his prison and had been able to advise the king of Egypt. The king in his dream could see seven lean cows fierce and eat seven fat cows. According to Joseph's interpretation "Egypt should expect seven years of drought and dearth where the Nile would never flood" So the Hathors will be eaten and there will be no prosperity or welfare.

Ramsess The Great adds a lot more of glory to Luxor Temple.
Luxor temple is one of the most charming and impressive temples in all over Egypt generally and in Luxor city specifically. Luxor Temple was founded by the great faithful pharaoh to Amun, king Amunhotep III or Amenophis III and it dates back to the 18th dynasty which is about 1400 B.C. King Amunhotep III established the whole interior of the temple including the holy of the holies, the vestibules ,the open-court and the inner pylon. The temple was dedicated mainly for god Amun-Ra's cult and for celebrating the Opet feasts "the marriage feast" of Amun-Ra. The feast was held and arranged by the clergies of both temples and the royal family. The ram-headed sphinxes avenue, three kilometers long, which is the one connects Luxor temple with the Grand Karnak temple used to be crowded with flag boles, priests and sacrifices. The temple of Luxor was completed and finished by king Ramsess II who created the exterior of the temple and carved on its first pylon his great victory over the Hittites and their allies, that fierce war which started ages ago had brought Egypt a lot more of honour and dignity. The battle of Qadish, in Syria had given Ramsess II the whole prestigious image he aimed at. Luxor Temple was provided with two giant obelisks , gigantic pair of seated statues of king Ramsess II and four of his free-standing statues in order to commemorate his great victory in Qadish and to dignify his father Amun in Luxor temple.

No doubt having a fan was so essential to most of ancient Egyptians as their tombs were filled with very rich belongings and enough sets of fans. The most ancient fans, generally, had their design inspired from Ra the sun-god, and its rising semi disc as mostly they have semi circular shape. Fan-bearers indeed were so important even they included by almost every funeral scene. King Tutankhamun's collection of fans never fails to astonish all its visitors but the most unique is still to be his swinging fan. The unique swinging fan is made of ivory, ostrich feathers, gold and precious stones. Its ivory handle was brought from a massive elephant tusk, its pure golden spike which controls the swinging is so pure and still to be hard and the well preserved ostrich feathers while been older than 3000 years.

The Tomb of Ramose and the change to monotheism
   
No doubt that Akhenaton's concept of monotheism was so unique. But the concept of calling one god and only one above all Egyptian gods and forcing it to surpass and prevail was not tolerated by the ancient Egyptians. The conversion to the oneness was so rapid and immediate and due to that the Egyptian welfare and economy had to face a disaster. The temples of the rest of gods which Akhenaton had sealed and abandoned, it's clergy ,farmers and workmen had become homeless and miserable. The Atonnism had strange principles and most probably with foreign origin .The god who begets not nor was he begotten, the unbodied god , the equality between all of the followers, and the nature of god Aton who is described to be an invisible being and just served with intangibles. Ramas or Ramose the vizier of Akhenaton who was still in charge during the transition period and before the Atonnism to be spread within the royalties. The name Ramas means the child of Ra, his tomb is the most unique among the ones that represent the shifting towards the monotheism. Ramose lived during the reign of Akhenaton which is around 1400-1300 B.C. He was a High-priest for Amun-Ra" the supreme god in Egypt" a royal scribe and a nobleman. Copyrig ©Musegypt. 2006
