The Egyptian God Family Tree – Veritable Hokum

The Egyptian God Family Tree – Veritable Hokum
First: I opened a store! It has a poster of this, as well as updated versions of the Norse and Greek god family trees I did a while back. More to come soon. Next, a disclaimer: this family tree isn’t, strictly speaking, historically accurate, because what we think of as The Egyptian Pantheon is really a whole bunch of similar-but-not-identical pantheons which were mostly based in individual cities – Thebes, Heliopolis, Memphis, etc. – and went through a lot of changes over their 3000+ year history. And now that I’ve disclaimed historical responsibility, onto What I Know About Those Gods Up There: Nun Nun is usually more of a place than a person, but he’s person sometimes too. Apep EDIT: An earlier version of this had Apep listed as Apophis, which was his name in Greek. Aten I think Aten is totally fascinating. Ra Ra was the first god, and the first pharaoh of the gods (succeeded by his descendants), so it makes sense that he is one model on which the human pharaoh was based.

The Handmade Skateboard: Design & Build a Custom Longboard, Cruiser, or Street Deck from Scratch: Matt Berger: 0884309929800: Amazon.com: Books Gaia hypothesis The study of planetary habitability is partly based upon extrapolation from knowledge of the Earth's conditions, as the Earth is the only planet currently known to harbour life The Gaia hypothesis, also known as Gaia theory or Gaia principle, proposes that organisms interact with their inorganic surroundings on Earth to form a self-regulating, complex system that contributes to maintaining the conditions for life on the planet. Topics of interest include how the biosphere and the evolution of life forms affect the stability of global temperature, ocean salinity, oxygen in the atmosphere and other environmental variables that affect the habitability of Earth. Introduction[edit] Less accepted versions of the hypothesis claim that changes in the biosphere are brought about through the coordination of living organisms and maintain those conditions through homeostasis. In some versions of Gaia philosophy, all lifeforms are considered part of one single living planetary being called Gaia.

Witches of Cornwall Macabre evidence of age-old spells surfaces in an archaeologist's front yard Archaeologist Jacqui Wood holds a fragment of a cauldron unearthed from a buried spring-fed pool near her home. This and other artifacts she has found point to a long history of ritual and witchcraft. Over the centuries, many in the British Isles have appealed to witches in times of need--to cure a toothache, concoct a love potion, or curse a neighbor. Wood's home is in the hamlet of Saveock Water in Cornwall, a county tucked in the far southwest corner of the country. When I visit Saveock Water it is raining, which adds to its unearthly atmosphere. Wood was excited but busy with other projects and left the find undisturbed for a few years. While digging a hole for another project, Wood discovered a late Mesolithic clay platform in her field. As the group peeled off layers of turf, they discovered the clay floor was an extensive man-made platform--probably a foundation for a group of ancient dwellings. Share
