Know more about ancient Egypt!

Panedjem I (Pinedjem)
Among the very early Priest -kings who seized the opportunity of being the kingship in gradual declining and ruled Egypt in 1070 BC.
One of the major indicators of the kingship weakness was having the pharaoh subjected (in the funeral literature)to the judgement of Osiris where his heart was shown in the process of weighing against the feather of Maat or justice.
Such notion had been resisted by the divinity of the pharoaoh and never been tolerated by ancient Egyptians in the earlier times!

The facts about Imhotep !

Shocked to see the amount of trash and nonsense as well as the misleading from those who call themselves (on line) Biblical sites even some illusionists among them try to invite some to believe that our great architect Imhotep who served king Zoser in about 2800 BC,was the Biblical Joseph ( with respect to Joseph ) and they try to convince naively some that Joseph who probably was not able to read and write in fact he was a herdsman and was not our Renaissance man !!!!! Those who believe that the children of Israel once they were enslaved by one of our pharaohs they were used in constructing our unique pyramids ! those never even thought for a good reason that justifies why we should use a small number of unskilled slaves and why those slaves once they made their exodus and settled in the holy land lost their claimed skill and built no pyramids or obelisks or even temples that could match the Egyptian ones ????

Walls and floors in ancient-D

The unsolved  mystery of the interlocking stones  has never ceased to amaze all minds , the amount of difficulty to comprehend its techniques and the precision of its position should indicate the superiority of the ancient Egyptian civilization !.

The V-shape interlocking stone which is frequently used in the old kingdom temples such as the one of king Chephren at Giza is among the most complicated types . Such V-block which is more than a meter thick and  weighs several tons has a distinctive function as a connective stone for the temples walls and corners (F-2).

                           F-2

The majority of the interlocked stones are cubical and tightly located with no space left between which never required any mortar to fix . Such method was invented by the ancient Egyptian architects to secure the temples against earth-quakes , massive floods and tsunami waves. The most astonishing fact about such interlocking is that the used blocks are unequal in size and different in posing ! Most of them located in leaning pose or no right angel one to pressure the next stone in order to prevent any attempt to remove or relocate  (F-3).
