The Mediterranean coast is the most mysterious and imaginative place on earth. The majestic Pyramid of Khufu at Giza in the Luo River Delta of Egypt shocks people's hearts and makes them ask themselves, who built them? Does the mausoleum need to be so exaggerated and extravagant? What are they really used for? When the people who had just migrated to the Beirut area saw the huge and towering pillars of the Baalbek Sun Temple and the great building made of cubic boulders in the sunset, they must have been filled with fear and confusion just like people today. This temple uses square-cut cornerstones weighing 2,000 tons to build the foundation and walls of the temple. In front of the temple, there is also a towering, precisely-cut obelisk weighing 1,600 tons. These incredible and extraordinary buildings remind those who come into contact with them of God, and they begin to believe that God is omniscient and omnipotent, and that God can accomplish anything and destroy everything. These great buildings reflect the deep feeling of human beings that "there is heaven outside the sky, and there are people outside the human beings", they are deeply aware of their own insignificance and incompetence, and they are deeply aware that human beings are only creatures created by God, and that God controls the destiny of human beings.
According to scientific analysis and speculation, these pyramids and temples were built by non-human beings who once often lived on the earth, namely Homo sapiens. When the earth began to warm and sea levels began to rise 45,000 years ago, highly intelligent people predicted that the earth would soon encounter severe natural disasters and environmental changes. Therefore, intelligent people used superb technology and means to build these pyramids and temples as their continued residence. Leave a living and working base on the earth.
Of course, this scientific inference must have hurt some people's emotions, and these injured people are almost all those who believe that these great historical sites were created by their ancestors. However, no one can live in illusion for a long time and replace reality with fantasy. Only knowledge, culture and civilization based on facts and truth can lead mankind towards a bright and happy future.
Between 45,000 and 25,000 years ago, humans were in the early stages of civilization. At this stage, humans could only make simple stone tools and make rough pottery. They did not master smelting technology, let alone metal tools. Therefore, in the early stages of the development of human civilization, it was impossible to build buildings with large scale, complex structures, and superb construction and construction techniques such as the Egyptian Pyramids and the Temple of Baalbek with the knowledge, technology and means possessed by humans.
According to scientific analysis and determination, these great buildings are the work and living bases of super-sapient humans. They may also be monuments and warnings left to mankind intentionally by super-sapient humans. Perhaps supersapient people want to use these physical objects to inspire humans to develop scientific knowledge, manufacturing technology, and engineering technology such as mathematics, mechanics, materials science, engineering, and architecture, and even inspire humans to explore and master the technology and equipment to escape from the earth, like superhuman beings. Like Homo sapiens, they fly out of the earth and go to the vast universe to pursue freedom and eternal life. Because supersapient people believe that humans will one day realize that the earth and the solar system will become more and more dangerous and will eventually lead to destruction.
After the Great Migration, humans entered Egypt and lived in Egypt for several generations. The ancient Egyptians discovered that the pyramids had no owners for a long time. Therefore, the Egyptians began to boldly go inside the pyramids and transform great pyramids such as Khufu into tombs of Egyptian pharaohs.
In the process of transforming the pyramids and building tombs, the Egyptian elite had to solve many thorny problems in mathematics, mechanics, materials science, engineering, architecture, etc. In the process of solving these problems, ancient Egyptian geometry, algebra, engineering drawing, etc. The branch of mathematics developed; the solution to problems such as hoisting, transportation, installation, and structural stability of bulky materials promoted the development of early mechanics and materials science; the organization and management of manpower, materials, and funds, as well as the development and breakthrough of construction technology, were born The earliest human engineering and architecture.
Although the ancient Egyptians acquired a lot of scientific knowledge and technology in the process of transforming pyramids and temples, it was not possible for the Egyptians to independently build a pyramid like the Pyramid of Khufu. Later, the ancient Egyptians built some smaller pyramids with simple structures and rough materials. However, these pyramids quickly collapsed and were damaged, and these pyramids eventually became rubble ruins.
Great pyramids are not unique to the Mediterranean region. In the last century, archaeologists discovered large pyramids completely covered by vegetation in the mountains near Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, in the European Balkan Peninsula. This pyramid is larger than the Pyramid of Khufu. According to scientists' identification, this pyramid was built 35,000 years ago. We believe that the pyramids of Giza and the giant obelisks and base stones of the Ma'baalbek Sun Temple in Beirut are also products of this distant era.
The legacies left by highly intelligent people to mankind will continue to be discovered by mankind. One day, mankind will obtain more great revelations, superb knowledge and technology from these legacies, paving the way for mankind to move towards absolute freedom and eternal life. Therefore, super intelligent people will What can be done, humans should also be able to do.
It is obvious that the cultural relics such as texts, patterns, reliefs and sculptures in the Egyptian pyramids and temples were left by the Egyptians. According to scientific research, analysis of the appearance and image of the pharaoh statues and mural reliefs left by the ancient Egyptians shows that the ancient Egyptian pharaohs and nobles have the appearance characteristics of yellow people. Perhaps they are descendants of the Central Asian Altai or Sumerian nobles. .
Through the interpretation of the mural texts in the pyramids and temples, in terms of religious beliefs, the Egyptians' beliefs are similar to shamanism. Egyptian folk burial methods generally adopt methods such as "curling burial" and "secondary burial"; pharaohs, nobles and other celebrities of the past use the complex, cumbersome and costly pyramid burial method for mummies. The mummy burial method is a corpse embalming method developed by the Egyptian priest elite based on the shamanistic teachings of "immortal bones and eternal souls". Making mummies requires the consumption of precious spices and medicinal materials. Building pyramids and tombs requires a large amount of manpower, material resources, financial resources and time. Almost every pharaoh spent his whole life and exhausted the country's financial resources to build his own tomb after he came to power. Prepare for your own funeral!
In terms of production methods, the ancient Egyptians, who were the first to enter the Nile Delta, made a living by hunting, gathering, and herding cattle and sheep. According to archaeological research, the ancient Egyptians developed agriculture more than 600 years later than the Sumerians. After the agricultural development in the Nile Delta flourished, the Egyptian population developed rapidly, and villages, cities and society achieved unprecedented development.
In 3200 BC, the Egyptian aristocratic elite Menes unified Egypt and established the world's first slave state in the middle and lower reaches of the Nile River in northeastern Africa (today's Middle East). He became the first pharaoh and supreme ruler of Egypt, which marked the Egyptian civilization emerged.
In terms of social life, the ancient Egyptians advocated freedom and carpe diem. They enjoyed pasta, barbecue, fruits, vegetables, beer, etc. There were commercial venues for socializing, gambling, singing, dancing, and drinking in the city for citizens to spend and play.
In terms of thought, the ancient Egyptians maintained the shamanistic world view, outlook on life and values. They believed that this life is only a temporary stay in the human world, and the next life is the eternity and destination. Therefore, they all have the ideological concept of "despise this life and value the next life" Therefore, "pursuing happiness in this life and ensuring bliss in the next life" has become the overall value pursuit of society. This ideological concept determined the lifestyle and social atmosphere of ancient Egypt.
In terms of culture, the ancient Egyptians used a unique hieroglyphic writing system. They were able to record things and express thoughts, feelings, events and ideas through this writing system. At the same time, they used this writing system to issue rulers' opinions, orders and laws, etc. . In terms of science and technology, they have established algebra and geometry techniques in mathematics, and they have gained rich experience and techniques in surveying, architecture, materials science and construction engineering. In terms of astronomy, they conducted systematic and precise observations and calculations on the solar system. They established the earliest solar calendar in human history, accurately calculated the time of year, month, and day, as well as the solar terms that guided agricultural production and human life.
In terms of international relations and diplomacy, Egypt is a long country based on the Nile Delta and the southern part of the Nile River to the northern border of Sudan. In an era when Egypt was strong, had a large population, and had a powerful army, Egypt annexed many tribes and small countries to the east. , the land pushed the west coast of the Red Sea; crossed the desert to the west and conquered Libya and other places; conquered Sudan to the south and made Sudan a vassal state of Egypt.
Egypt also often launches annexation wars through land routes to Palestine, Syria and other places in the northeast, that is, the west bank of the Mediterranean, and often obtains the ruling areas in these areas. Therefore, in ancient times, Egypt was a well-known wealthy country, cultural power, military power and world hegemon in the Middle East. Egypt was the center of world civilization at that time!
During the establishment of the ancient Egyptian state, the peoples who had close contact with Egypt included the Arabs, Hebrews, Hittites, Akkadians, and later the Greeks, Jews, Assyrians, Iranians, and Romans.
In ancient times, Arabs mainly lived in the southern regions of the Arabian Peninsula such as Yemen and Oman. The Arab people made a living by industries such as animal husbandry, agriculture, sailing and fishing, and maritime trade. Therefore, the Arabs were the first to develop international trade in eastern regions such as Egypt and India. , at the same time, the Arabs are the final nomadic people in the Middle East and one of the last peoples to engage in agricultural development. Due to the barriers of the Red Sea and the vast desert, direct conflicts and wars rarely occurred between the Arabs and the Egyptians.
The Hebrews and Arabs are both branches of the Semites. The Semites first lived in the central and southern part of the Arabian Peninsula and made a living by herding, farming, sailing, fishing and maritime trade. After the Sumerian civilization emerged in the Mesopotamia region of the Mesopotamia, the Semites began to migrate northward, entered the Sumerian territories and cities, traded with the Sumerians, and became the Sumerian people. Farming, herding, working as a coolie, and at the same time providing services for the Sumerian royal palace and priesthood, thus giving rise to new Semitic nations such as the Hebrews.
The Hebrews should have lived with the Sumerians for a long time. They had a very close integration relationship with the Sumerians. They systematically and comprehensively absorbed the Sumerian language, writing, culture, and ideas. These experiences and knowledge provided a solid cultural and ideological foundation for the later branches of the Hebrews, the Israelites and Jews, to enter the world civilization stage.
The Hittites first lived in the southern part of the Balkan Peninsula in Europe, and later moved to the Asia Minor Peninsula to engage in agriculture and commerce. Later, war broke out with the Sumerian Babylonian Dynasty, occupying present-day Pakistan, Syria, Turkey, the Caucasus region between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea, present-day Iraq and and a wide range of areas including the northern regions of Iran. The Hittite Empire had long been in confrontation with Middle Eastern empires such as Babylon and Iran. The Hittites are the ancestors of today's Syrians, Kurds, Armenians and other peoples. They are a great force that cannot be ignored in the Middle East.
Akkadian is the name of a city in central Mesopotamia where many Semites lived at that time. Around the beginning of 3000 BC, a group of Semites, led by Sargon I, conquered the Sumerians in the Mesopotamia and established the Akkadian Kingdom. From then on, this Semite group was called Akkadian. The Khaders gradually formed a new nation.
The Sumerians were the first to bring early human civilization to the Middle East and the Mediterranean coast, where they gave birth to new races and gave birth to new civilizations. At the same time, the Sumerians also cultivated powerful and ferocious gravediggers for themselves. .
After the fall of the Sumerian dynasty, the Middle East entered an era of warlords and warlords. At this time, the Egyptian dynasty played a stabilizing role in balancing the Middle East and the Mediterranean coast.
Since Egypt is bounded by the Mediterranean Sea to the north, the Red Sea and saline-alkali desert land to the east, and the Sahara Desert to the west and south, except for the relatively wealthy areas such as the Nile Delta and both sides of the Nile River, Egypt's surrounding areas are resource-deficient and barren. In order to meet the luxurious life needs of the Egyptian pharaoh, priests, court and nobles, Egypt must develop its economy and carry out trade activities with countries and people in the Middle East, Mediterranean islands and coastal areas. Since Egypt produces precious metals such as gold, silver and brass, It is also the area with the most developed agriculture and animal husbandry and the highest output in the region. Therefore, the maritime peoples living on the Mediterranean islands and coastal areas are very fond of conducting maritime trade with the Egyptians. They bring wood, spices and medicinal materials produced in Asia Minor and the hinterland of Europe. They were sold from sea to coastal ports in Egypt in exchange for Egyptian gold and silver and other precious metals, dyes, grains, beer and meat. After the earliest peoples to conduct maritime trade with the Egyptians, the Phoenicians, Greeks, Hebrews, etc., in the middle and late period of ancient Egyptian history, the peoples who traded with Egypt included the Greeks, Jews, Arabs, Romans, etc. .
The Phoenicians were the first maritime people to settle on the coast of the Mediterranean. Not only did they have skilled and extraordinary shipbuilding and navigation skills, they were also geniuses in language and writing. They invented spelling methods and pinyin writing, and laid the foundation for the development of pinyin writing in the Middle East and the West. Base. At the same time, they were also pioneers in maritime trade. Egypt's shipyards, ports, and sailing caravans were all built and operated by the Phoenicians.
The Greeks were originally a maritime people living on the island of Crete in the northeastern Mediterranean Sea, and then gradually moved to the Aegean coast and other European areas. They were the ones who finally grasped the needs of the Egyptians and monopolized access to materials and goods produced in Europe. exports and gain great wealth in the nation. The Greeks founded the world's first city-state republic, the Athenian City-State Republic (Athens Yadia).
, in ancient Vietnamese, Yaya means woman, saint, or virgin.
It means correct and just, so Athens is the "City of Our Lady of Justice"). The country was founded on maritime commerce and had the largest maritime caravan and armed fleet in the region at that time. At the same time, the Greeks attached great importance to the inheritance and research of culture and science. In terms of language, they integrated the ancient farming people language of southern Europe, that is, the ancient Diyue language of the Far East, on the basis of Phoenician. For example, in Greek mythology, Prometheus, the god of fire, puluomixiusi , in the ancient Diyue language, "pubu" means a type of people, a part of the people; "luoluo" means knowledge, knowledge and wisdom; "mimi" means having, possessing; "xiu" "Xiu" means burning or burning; "sishi" means food. "Prometheus puluomixiusi" literally translates as "the wise tribe has people who cook food" in ancient Vietnamese. In ancient times, it is true that only those who eat cooked food have fire! At present, Cantonese, Mongolians and Japanese still call cooked food "xiusi cooked food". According to historical documents, in terms of science and technology, the Greeks, on the basis of absorbing the achievements of Middle Eastern and Egyptian civilizations, conducted quite systematic and in-depth research in philosophy, mathematics, physics, chemistry, mechanics, materials science, architecture and astronomy. .
After the fall of the Sumerian dynasty, many Arabs returned to their homeland and engaged in herding, agriculture and maritime trade. They carried out maritime trade in Persia and India through sea routes such as the Red Sea, Persian Gulf and Indian Ocean to satisfy Egypt, the Middle East and Import demand for goods along the Mediterranean coast. Because the Arabs controlled this maritime trade line, the Arabs gradually became wealthy and became a very important force in the Middle East.
The Jews are a very peculiar nation among human beings. They define and divide the nations of the world according to a Hebrew religious classic. According to this classic, the Jews are derived from an ancestral lineage of the Hebrews, namely Abraham and Isaac. , Jacob (i.e. Israel), Moses, etc.
After Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt, from about 930 BC to about 722 BC, the Israelites established a country in the northern area of present-day Palestine, with its capital in Samaria. After the division of the United Kingdom of Israel, the northern kingdom continued to use the name of Israel and was called the Kingdom of Israel in history; the southern kingdom was called the Kingdom of Judah, and the Jews were citizens of the Kingdom of Judah.
In about 721 BC, the kingdoms of Israel and Judah were destroyed by Sargon II of the Assyrian Empire. Since then, the Jews have become a commercial people wandering around the world who have lost their homeland.
Linguistically, the Jewish nation has a profound relationship with the ancient Yue people in the East. The true pronunciation of the Jewish family name is yehudi. "yehu" means the imperial feudal king in the ancient Yue language; "di" means direct lineage and The meaning of orthodoxy; the literal translation of yehudi means the orthodox feudal royal family. Their only god is commonly known as "Jehovah yehuhua", and "yehu Yehu" is the king; "huahua" means flowers, beauty, mystery, soul and gods; "Jehovah yehuhua" is literally translated as "God of Kings"; and the true meaning of Jehovah is "Yahweh Yehuhua". It is called "yawei Yawei" (it is taboo among believers to call God by his name). In ancient Vietnamese, "yaya" represents female, feminine; "weiwei" represents male, masculine; "yawei Yawei" is literally translated as "yin and yang" All things come together” is the Creator. jerusalem holy city yelusale founded by jews
gThe meaning of its name in ancient Yue is, yelu is an altered pronunciation of yehu, which means king of feudal territory; sa (Sa, Sa, Sha) means knowledge, knowledge, wisdom, and spiritual master. , the meaning of oracle; le
g means the future, the future; "Holy City Jerusalem yelusale"
g" literally means "city of the prophets". And "yeshu" is also an altered pronunciation of "yehu". When being tried by the Romans, Jesus admitted that he was the king of Israel, and the king was "yehu leaf protector". In terms of customs and culture, the Jews have always maintained the habit of a matrilineal clan society. Women serve as priests, patriarchs and parents. Women have divine and royal rights, as well as the right to manage tribal and family affairs and dispose of property. The family name Adopting the maternal surname, these customs and culture are very similar to ancient peoples such as the Guyue people. Therefore, it can be inferred that Semites, Hebrews and Jews have deep cultural origins with ancient peoples such as the Guyue people in the East.
In terms of life and religious habits, Jews and Guyue people have similarities and differences. The ancient Yue people's "Fuxi and Nuwa human ancestor theory" and the Jewish "Adam and Eve human ancestor theory" are similar in title. In the ancient Yue language, Fuxi fuxi means male elders, xi means male genitals, and Fuxi It means a married man. Nuwa
vwa's
v and yi are similar sounds to refer to women, and wa refers to children. Nuwa's ability is "a woman gives birth to a child", that is, giving birth to a daughter. The result of translating Adam and Eve in ancient Vietnamese is that Adam yada
g is quite similar to Yalang yala
g, in the literal translation of the Guyue people, also means to marry a man; xiawa and yawa are similar in pronunciation, and in the literal translation of the Guyue people, it means to give birth to a girl.
At the same time, both the Jews and the Guyue people like to eat cooked food and like to use cooked male animals to worship gods and sacrifices. However, the Jews are opposed to eating pork, let alone using pork for sacrifice. This shows that the two ethnic groups have lived together and have common beliefs and living habits. At the same time, it also shows that the Jews are nomadic people in the early days, and the Guyue people have always been settled residents who mainly focus on farming. Only settled residents can raise pigs and other livestock. However, pigs are only suitable for captivity and not suitable for free-range. Once pigs are free-range, they can easily turn into ferocious wild boars, and pigs eat a lot. Raising a large number of pigs will cause vegetation damage and increase the material consumption and workload of nomadic people. Therefore, nomadic people Very disgusted with pigs. However, raising pigs is a standard option for farming people and settled residents, because pork is their main source of meat. Farmers can specifically grow pig-eating plants to solve the problem of pigs eating too much.
In the late period of the ancient Egyptian dynasty, the Roman Empire emerged in the central Italian Peninsula on the northern shore of the Mediterranean Sea. The rising Romans became the real gravediggers and destroyers of the ancient Egyptian dynasty!
After ancient Egypt experienced a long period of peaceful development in the early and middle periods, in 1274 BC, a war broke out between the 19th Dynasty of Egypt and the Hittite Empire in Kadesh, Syria. In 1259 BC, the 19th Dynasty of Egypt and the Hittite Empire signed the Peace of Memphis, ending the war in Syria between the 19th Dynasty of Egypt and the Hittite Empire. Subsequently, Egypt's national power began to decline, domestic separatist forces began to become rampant, and civil wars became frequent.
In 664 BC, the Assyrian Empire, which emerged from Babylon in the Mesopotamia, invaded Egypt. Although the Assyrian attack was repelled by the Egyptians, Egypt lost control of the east coast of the Mediterranean and fell into conflict with the Assyrians. During the long war, Egypt's national strength suffered a serious blow.
In 609 BC, in order to regain control of the Mediterranean coast, Egypt and Assyria fought the Second Battle of Megiddo. In the battle, Egypt defeated the Jewish Kingdom and killed the Jewish monarch Josiah. The remaining Assyrian army was forced to withdraw from Nineveh, the Assyrian capital, and fled to Haran in the north of the Mesopotamia. Since then, the Jews have lost their homeland and struggled to survive in the cracks of cruel competition among nations in the world.
In 525 BC, Cambyses, the third emperor of the Persian Empire, led an army on an expedition to Egypt.
In 404 BC, the Persian ruler Darius II died, the Persian Empire was in civil strife, and the fourth anti-Persian uprising broke out in Egypt. This uprising was led by Libyans in the Nile Delta region, and its leader was Amirtaeus II. World. He took control of Lower Egypt, at which time Persian rule in Egypt collapsed and the Twenty-Seventh Dynasty of Egypt came to an end. Egypt returned to the hands of the Egyptian nobles, but the long tug of war between the Egyptians and the Persians had just begun.
In 332 BC, after Alexander the Great overthrew the Persian Empire, he peacefully occupied and ruled Egypt through an oracle. From then on, Egypt became the world of the Greeks.
From 332 BC to 30 BC, Egypt entered the Ptolemaic period. After the death of Alexander the Great, Alexander's successor Ptolemy I established government institutions using the previous Egyptian model and made Alexandria the capital. The city sought to demonstrate the power of its rulers and, with the famous Library of Alexandria at its core, became the center of world culture and learning.
Ptolemy I encouraged cultural undertakings and developed industry and commerce. The most prominent one was that Ptolemy I personally ordered the establishment of the world-famous Library of Alexandria. At its peak, it contained about 700,000 volumes (papyrus volumes), which was the largest in the world at that time. Its construction attracted a large number of scholars at that time. Famous scholars such as Archimedes and Euclid came here to conduct research, which promoted the development of ancient Western literature, mathematics, mechanics, geography, astronomy, anatomy, Research in subjects such as physiology has made great progress. For example, the first corrected version of "Homer" was written by Zenodotus, the librarian of the Library of Alexandria. Eratosthenes also calculated the length of the meridian after measurements in Ptolemaic Egypt (similar to The actual difference is only about 300 kilometers), and further proposed the "round earth theory". From the Old Kingdom to the Ptolemaic period, many Egyptian dynasties have a large collection of works on philosophy, poetry, literature, medicine, religion, ethics and other sciences. Here it is. These texts, knowledge and research results became the foundation of Middle Eastern and Western culture and science. Although these documents are suspected of being fabricated, they also reflect ancient mankind's exploration and harvest of scientific knowledge and technology from another aspect. It no longer matters when or who discovered and created these knowledge and technologies.
In 51 BC, Cleopatra VII, the last Hellenistic queen of Egypt, ascended the throne after colluding with Caesar to murder her brother Pharaoh Ptolemy XIII. The Romans hated her because she almost turned Rome into a province of Egypt, but the Egyptians praised her as a warrior because she won 22 years of peace for Egypt.
After Caesar's death, Cleopatra again colluded with Antony, the new ruler of Rome. After Octavian became the ruler of the Roman Empire, he defeated Mark Antony and the Egyptian pharaoh Cleopatra at the Battle of Actium. Cleopatra then committed suicide by taking poison, and Egypt officially became a province of the Roman Empire in 30 BC. From then on the ancient Egyptian empire died.
At this time, the history of ancient Egypt lies quietly in the dark history of mankind, but ancient Egyptian civilization still illuminates the dark sky of the Western world like a beacon, guiding the West on the road to civilization.
