(1995: 357). The Papyrus of Merer is a solid example to us for writing in the Old Kingdom. It's still not of the quantity of writing seen a lot later, such as in Dynasty 19 and 20. I always think of all of the wonderful scrolls from Deir el Medina, the primary workmen's village in the New Kingdom. I believe That's when Hanslune went to school. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Not A Rockstar Posted January 14, 2020 #28 Share Posted January 14, 2020 46 minutes ago, kmt_sesh said: Hi, Rockstar. I hope all is well. The thorn in your hope is the Great Pyramid was built around 2500 BCE, in the Old Kingdom. The Library of Alexandria was first built around 288 BCE, over 2,000 years later. Add to that, not much was written in the Old Kingdom compared to periods much later on. I always hate to be an old stick in the mud, so let me say any sort of writing in that isolated void would be an exciting find, even Khufu's favorite recipes or his favorite bathroom in the palace. It's going great, Favorite Mummy, especially with you rocking around among us <3 I did a slip of consciousness flow there and was meaning I'd like them to find some anywhere, not literally there in that room but, yeah it sounds as if I said so, so my bad I am a good enough writer to not make such a mistake and will use more care. Yes, something brand new, a new story in hieroglyphs, anything would be fascinating good fun if there really is a space in there with something stashed. Just dubious about it 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windowpane Posted January 14, 2020 #30 Share Posted January 14, 2020 1 hour ago, kmt_sesh said: ... Khufu's favorite recipes or his favorite bathroom in the palace. This set me to wondering what bathroom arrangements were actually in operation for upper class ancient Egyptians. The best I could come up with was Gardner Wilkinson, The Ancient Egyptians Their Life and Customs (1853), II: 348, which describes a tomb at Thebes portraying the attendants of a lady pouring water (one hopes at a reasonable temperature) over her from a vase. Presumably Khufu had comparable arrangements; presumably, also, a great deal more detail on such matters has come to light since ... 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenemet Posted January 14, 2020 #32 Share Posted January 14, 2020 8 hours ago, The Wistman said: As I see it, the problem here is the same as in Florence, where Leonardo's famous painting of The Battle of Anghiari is purported to lie intact behind a later major painting by Vasari. Do you destroy the Vasari to get to the Leonardo? Many say yes, others don't. Ditto the problem in Tut's tomb if the scans had indeed confirmed a chamber behind the painted wall. Do we destroy the painted wall, or a section of it, to get to the hidden room? Think about the immensity of the same problem with regard to Khufu's pyramid. It appears there is probably a void of some sort and of significant dimensions hidden near the grand gallery. If the scans confirm its presence without revealing any pathway to it, what then is the plan? Part of the purpose of the scan (according to someone with connections to the expedition) is to find a way into there without causing major damage. I can't find a way to bookmark the exact answer, but if you'll look at Larry Pahl's answer on Quora, you can see a photo of an improved scan: https://www.quora.com/Why-is-Egypt-not-allowing-archeologists-to-examine-the-voids-under-the-Sphinx-and-in-the-Great-Pyramid-and-have-closed-off-access-to-many-other-sites?__filter__=all&__nsrc__=1&__sncid__=3888432477&__snid3__=6372643965 4 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which could certainly expand our current knowledge of why this structure was built and the purpose it was meant to serve. Peace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s why I put unfinished pyramid in quotes, and it’s obviously not. But officials won’t let anyone study it. Too bad, we’ll never know. Goes for everything else, all off limits to any research required to validate these “extraordinary” theories which seems they go great lengths to deny. The ministry won’t allow any of it, you’ll just have to take their word for it, and which you and many here seem to have. Sad.
