It always blows my mind that there was 3000 years of Egyptian history AFTER the Great Pyramid was built, and THEN came the Romans, who are in turn like 2000 years before us today. Insane.

I teach ancient world history to 150 fourth graders. Today was our lesson on ancient Egyptian mythology and I displayed your timeline, which I purchased over the summer. I wish I could show you how excited all of those 9 and 10 year olds were and how they kept going to the chart to see how the gods were related and who they were. It is one of the best purchases that I have made for my classroom! Thank you!

Hi Matt, I just wanted to let you know that I received your book in the mail today and it is hands down the most beautiful book I've ever owned. The charts are exquisite, the amount of useful information accompanying them is amazing and overall, I'm just over the moon with it. I had never bought anything related to a KZbinr before, and I'm so glad my first purchase was this book. Greetings from a very happy history student ^^

[@dorderre]

the most amazing thing are the temporal dimensions, I mean they've been building those Pyramids around 2600 BCE and again 800 years later around 1800 BCE. Imagine having a first pyramid building phase at the age of crusades and a second one now. The last pyramids were built three times that timespan before the crusades. I think it was Blue from Overly Sarcastic Productions who put it like this: The great pyramids (the first wave of pyramid building) are older to the Romans than the Romans are to us. And: Cleopatra (the famous one) lived closer to space flight than to the building of the great pyramids.

That observation is quite common. Edit : it's actually in this very video too. 🙃

[@fredriks5090]

A small stretch of imagination; A large amount of the worlds pyramids and established crops come from meso-america. What if Quetzalcoatl who was said to be expelled from meso-america on a raft of snakes, and the story of jörmungandr plus northern european snake-patterns has a common origin? What if Tolkien was a historian who was so far ahead of his time he had to veil his theory as a work of fiction?

[@KateeAngel]

@@fredriks5090 no, that is actually a HUGE stretch of imagination LOL

[@stormveil]

@@fredriks5090 the common origin is snakes being all over the world and the fact we're all humans. People have the same ideas all the time, it's very common, and our common origin is 10s of thousands or hundreds of thousands of years. Not merely a few thousand.

[@fredriks5090]

@@KateeAngel Neanderthals is proven to have lived 30000 years ago. That means that only 10 times farther back in time than the pharaohs, there were different species of intelligent humans on this planet. And if we are to believe science, there have been anatomically modern humans on this planet for as long as 100 times farther back than the pharaohs. That leaves 90% of modern human history, which happened during several species being on this planet alongside us, unattested for. Is it really that big of a stretch, or does these facts make you uncomfortable? 150 generations back to pharaoh 1500 generations back to proven neanderthals 15000 generations back to the origin of anatomically modern humans origin. So far, scientists are reluctant to talk about anything that happened before the neanderthals disappeared - because they simply don't know.

[@fredriks5090]

@@stormveil Yes but major events happened that ended the ice age, recently. If that event made patterns in the sky, it's easy to connect snake-like patterns together with water and the horizon. America and northern europe experienced the biggest known changes, which might be why this particular mythology has survived in both places because the severity and symptoms of what happened impacted them in a similar manner.

[@potatoprodutions7871]

One thing worth pointing out is that Set was the patron god of foreigners, meaning that he took on a much more negative connotation after the Hyksos became the first foreign power to conquer Egypt. He plays a significant role in myths such as Ra's journey through the underworld where he protects Ra from danger, thereby protecting the entire world, but Egyptians largely abandoned depicting him as a more morally neutral god in what is essentially a propaganda campaign. This is probably why the more popular tellings of the myths depict Nephthys as a second wife of Osiris instead of Set's wife, since they probably didn't want gods as important as Nephthys and Anubis to have that baggage.
