Download or read book Fire in Middle written by James E. Brown and published by Bookbaby. This book was released on 2017-07-14 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After four decades of research and multiple trips to Egypt, Brown believes he has solved the mystery of the Great Pyramid of Giza. He has concluded that the pyramid fits the profile of a type of chemical laser and that the Giza Plateau functioned as a massive industrial complex. Following the architectural principle that form follows function, Brown recognized it was impossible to enter the so-called burial chamber in the Great Pyramid because of the small size of the passage (less than four-feet square) and the extreme angle of the interior passages. This huge stone structure did not align with the supposed purpose, or with ancient Egyptian burial practices. Recently, a man-made tunnel was discovered under the Giza Plateau that connects the Great Pyramid to the Nile. In ancient times the annual flood waters from the Nile coursed through the Great Pyramid, and through a powerful chemical process created what Brown calls Earthmilk, electrified water. This enhanced elixir served many purposes, including enlivening the human body and flowing into the river to enrich animal life and soil on the banks, resulting in rich and abundant crops. Fire in Middle outlines Brown's compelling research and his journey of discovery. The book includes more than 350 stunning full-color images and diagrams. This is the second in a series of three volumes of research and evidence gathered from grassroots expeditions to Giza, Luxor, Saqqara, Abydos and Abu Simbel. This ground-breaking and ongoing research presents compelling evidence that the traditional interpretations of ancient Egyptian pyramids need to be reconsidered and re-evaluated.

Book Synopsis Description of Egypt by : Edward William Lane
Download or read book Description of Egypt written by Edward William Lane and published by American Univ in Cairo Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 796 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The launching of this hitherto unpublished book by the great nineteenth-century British traveler Edward William Lane (1801-76), a name known to almost everyone in all the many fields of Middle East studies, is a major publishing event. Lane was the author of a number of highly influential works: An Account of the Manners and Customs of the Modern Egyptians (1836), his translation of The Thousand and One Nights (1839-41), Selections from the Kur-an (1843), and the Arabic-English Lexicon (1863-93). Yet one of his greatest works was never published: after years of labor and despite an enthusiastic reception by the publishing firm of John Murray in 1831, publication of his first book, Description of Egypt, was delayed and eventually dropped, mainly for financial reasons. The manuscript was sold to the British Library by Lane's widow in 1891, and has only now been salvaged for publication by Dr. Jason Thompson, nearly 170 years after its completion. This enormously important book, which takes the form of a journey through Egypt from north to south, with descriptions of all the ancient monuments and contemporary life that Lane explored along the way, will be of immense interest to both ancient and modern historians of Egypt, and will become an essential companion to his Manners and Customs. ''Jason Thompson's exact and dedicated edition deserves much praise.''-Astene Newsletter, June 2002. ''Thompson, a historian at AUC, has done signal service in taking a manuscript dating from 1831 and preparing it for publication so many years later; AUC Press deserves praise for making so major a work available, and at so reasonable a price.''-Daniel Pipes, Middle East Quarterly, June 2001. ''In all, the appearance of this major work of scholarship at this late date is a major boon to the study of Egypt's history between the pharaohs and 18280.''-Daniel Pipes, Middle East Quarterly, June 2001.
Download or read book Abu Simbel written by Ahmed Saleh Ahmed and published by ِAhmed Saleh Ahmed. This book was released on 2024-06-08 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Abu Simbel: The Miracle of the Sun" by Ahmed Saleh provides a detailed exploration of the historical and architectural significance of the Abu Simbel temples, built by Ramses II in the 13th century BC. The book delves into the geographical and cultural context of Abu Simbel, a small town near the Egyptian-Sudanese border. It highlights the construction and purpose of the grand Temple of Ramses II and the smaller Temple of Nefertari, emphasizing their role in the political and religious landscape of ancient Egypt. The temples are celebrated for their remarkable solar alignment, where twice a year, the sun illuminates the inner sanctum of the Great Temple, highlighting Ramses II's devotion to the sun gods Re-Hor-Akhty and Amun-Re. This phenomenon underscores the Egyptians' advanced understanding of astronomy and their ability to incorporate it into monumental architecture." The book also addresses the modern history of Abu Simbel, particularly the rescue mission during the construction of the Aswan High Dam in the 1960s, which threatened to submerge the temples under Lake Nasser. An international effort led to the meticulous relocation of the temples to higher ground, preserving their historical and cultural value. The text provides insights into the artistic and architectural features of the temples, including the colossal statues of Ramses II, detailed reliefs depicting his military exploits, and the symbolic representations of his divine kingship. Additionally, it explores the broader historical impact of Ramses II's reign, marked by extensive building projects and military campaigns, which solidified his legacy as one of Egypt's most powerful and influential pharaohs."
