Book Reviews of The Message of the Sphinx: A Quest for the Hidden Legacy of Mankind
Book Review: 10,500 BC plus 25,920 = Zep Tepi
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a wonderful book, as so many of the reviews are saying. But I believe the authors have missed the Zep Tepi, or First Time, by 25,920 years--that this occured in the *previous* age of Leo. The software used to re-create the
night sky of 10,500 BC can only go back in time
30,000 years, we are told. When the length of the dynasties of the Shemsu Hor (13,420 years), the Neteru (23,200 years) are added to the generally accepted beginning of the firstdynasty (3,000 BC), that takes us back to 39,620 BC.
The previous Age of Leo was from 36,880 to 34,720 BC. So this
"First Time" meshes very nicely with the total dynastic years
mentioned in the Pyramid Texts.
I'd sure like to have a look at that night sky of
36,420 BC!
