This was Wonderful. Would love a discussion about Napoleons conquest of Egypt and the Corp of Scientists he brought along. Which I believe found the Rosetta Stone. Cheers.
54:49 Thank You So Much for saying that! I if I was able to talk to her I would have said the dead stamp same thing! Thank You Dude, means a LOT to me for someone to say that. ;-D! I wondered how one of these Actual Scholar Egyptologists would take such a remark. Thanks for taking the risk & having the guts to mention that. ;-D! 😁👍🏼👍🏼😁‼️
The king being mummified and normal people not might be because a kings duty is not finished when they die. Kings still have to protect their subjects. Kings still have to provide the reins and crops. Partly why kings had to be mummified and worshiped
What people don't catch is why Osiris was the first mummy and why the Egyptians practiced it.. Osiris like innana in sumerian myths and Persephone Orpheus and other Greek heroes had to escape the underworld.. the myths are mystery school teaching device complex symbolic allegories.. it's all about transformation into a justified soul.. so to my original point Osiris being wrapped is symbolic of a cocoon. A vessel of transformation.. the Egyptians used nature to exemplify their ideas.. a mummy is a cocoon
Best Chinwag yet!

Its one of the best things i saw
Look into Robert Schock’s (Boston U) 1990s research on the rain / weathering wear of the Sphinx.
Ahkenaten was from Pittsburg, or Detroit, or maybe even Roswell.
