Re: [sun_lit] Akhenaton Picture

Hi Steve,

 

The picture can be seen at the following links:

http://mistrealm.com/Akhenaton/Akhenaton.html

http://www.oceanimpact.com/directory/elkhan/exportpics/papyrus/akhenaton.jpg

http://www.artsci.lsu.edu/phil/phil1/cogburn/currentcourses/1000/vgod/godopen.html

 

Even though it looks too good for an ancient papyrus, suggesting that it is a forgery, it is similar to:

 

1. two paintings reproducing a bas relief, but where there are not present the sunglasses, from

http://nicolas.damour.free.fr/Loisirs/Nephilim/intro.html

 

2. a bas relief from the Egyptian Museum, Cairo, from Dynasty XVIII 1370 B.C.that can be seen at:

http://www.rainbowcrystal.com/atext/egypt11.html (the sunglasses are visible!)

http://perso.wanadoo.fr/systme.solaire/mouvements_soleil.htm

http://perso.infonie.be/parcours/musees1.html (the sunglasses are poorly visible)

 

Hope the above info answers you question.

 

Petre

 

P.S. See an interesting article, in French, on the Egyptian Zodiac represented on the ceiling of Hathor's temple from Denderah at http://www.egyptos.net/egyptos/viequotidienne/zodiaque.php

... Hi Petre, ... Yes. The three above all look like they were taken from the copy, and that the copyist enhanced the colors. ... Yes, very much so. Thanks...
