The Cosmere is awesome, and Brandon is an Earth spanning presence in the world of books and authors, such breadth of Vision and comprehension! The praise being given, here then is the offering: I thought to bring this quote to this board from another where I practically camp out. Graham Hancock's Web Site. My research is in books about the dirt, the ancient sites, the amazing ancient texts, and lots of mental shuffling considering all these things. Brandon has said he was very taken with the culture of Korea, and I appreciate this. There might be a good reason to visit works on Tibet and the Bon Poe in relation to items from Korea. One must consider the timing of the Bon Poe Sorcerers in relation to the Earth's encounter with the asteroids and their incipient flood (the Great Flood of Noah) . . This is up and coming work, and very exciting, asteroids and the Sword of Damoclese, indeed! Even the Bible mentions the "surprises" which the ) Lord has saved for the End of Days. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Author: eyeofhorus33 Date: December 19, 2016 07:46PM See PT 220 after a transliteration and German translation on the Thesaurus Linguae Aegyptiae web site: Altägyptisches Wörterbuch, Berlin-Brandenburgische Akademie der Wissenschaften, D. Topmann (ed.) => Pyramidentexte => Unas-Pyramide => Sargkammer => Ostwand => PT 220 Quote "Your lotusbud sceptre is at the head of the living, your staff is at the head of the glorified spirits, like Anubis who is at the head of the Westerners, like Anedjti who is at the head of the eastern nomes." Unas PT 220 Anedjti's sceptre is considered by consensus to be the precursor to the Osirian crook: Quote "May you give the shepherd's crook into the hand of this Unas, that the head of Lower and Upper Egypt may be bowed." Unas PT 222 Animal husbandry is referenced explicitly here. I imagine this differs from your own unique interpretation of the PT, Sam. Matt http://grahamhancock.com/phorum/read.php?1,1082875,1082904#msg-1082904 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Animal husbandry being specifically involved then we need, possibly, to investigate the Vedas and find the aproximate time that Indra's Net was invested upon the Earth …. Cows and Horses …. May have come along with the introduction of farming, and seed development, Anatolia, and possibly Gobekli Tepi, which is so much in the news. I would venture to say it came at the time of the Lowering of Kingship from Heaven, after the flood. This may have been after Set had walked the Earth, or -- it may be contemporaneous, as this era is also the era of the great bird God (most easily discerened on Rapa Nui, -- in the myths of Easter Island). The birds were a terror in the early ages of man in the Americas as they considered men part of their normal diet! The ground based ones were very fast, easily outpacing most prey, and men with even greater facility. The flying variety were huge enough to carry off a cow, or small dinosaur? _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Why is this -- possibly -- of import to Brandon's Cosmere? The writer is a Storm in himself, … lordy, 5 books in 5 years + other stuff. The Storm can update anywhere within its bounds (a great virtue of the form). However, it also has base understandings, and these were understood at the outset. Brandon is enamored of life and the inderpinnings of life, and his grasp is consumate. Still, he wants to span all of creation on Earth, which is a very noble endeavor at the end of an age. Bravo, Brandon! His encounter with the East came under the cultural influences of the West . . . Western culture has fairly well spread its mantle of construction and commerce over all the civilized cultures of the world. Thus Brandon would not have the insight of the truly ancient mindset without having been exposed to tombs, manuscripts and cultural overtones of the ancient, or older age. People have never been dull, but they have embraced many belief systems, points of perspective, some very inclusive! Some believe the worldwide prediluvian language was structured so as to prevent people from thinking incorrectly. It was lost with the flood. So, I just thought to share this, at a small breathing space in the production and deliniation of The Cosmere …. in hopes that it will facilitate the easy and flowing archtecture necessary for The Cosmere to embrace both East and West. Structure underlies the common Universe! Awesome books! Thank you for these amazing and awesome books.
