Gosford Hieroglyphics: Ancient Egyptian connection to Australia or an elaborate hoax?

[WorldMysteries]

The inscriptions consist of what appear to be two panels of symbols that some believe represent hieroglyphs. Proponents of this theory maintain that they tell the story of ancient Egyptians who traveled to Australia thousands of years ago.

Hoax.

[Abramelin]

The hieroglyphs are much less weathered than the socalled younger Aboriginal etches.

And about that boomerang: it's not a typical Australian weapon. They found them here in the Netherlands, and was a weapon used by the Cananefates, a tribe during the times of Tacitus:

Hoax. They were constructed in the 1920's or maybe in the 1980's.

[Kenemet]

Elaborate hoax, added to by other hoaxers.

Those are not real hieroglyphs.  The "gods" are all wrong, they think that hieroglyphs are some sort of version of pictionary, there's things copied from books on Middle Egyptian (a form of the language that wouldn't exist for a thousand years... kind of like seeing someone writing an "authentic Beowulf manuscript" in Leetspeak (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leet)

Both. 

Returned soldiers, and students are suspected of starting it in the 1920s. A man was actually caught adding to them in the 1980s.

Butt,  the hieroglyphics might be real. Maybe it was written by the those Egypt mummies when they used cocaine.

Not to go off topic, but there is proof the ancient Indians did arrive in Australia:

 

Indians Made It to Australia More Than 4,000 Years Before the British

Negritos. Not Aryans or Dravidians.

Certain West Coast Digger tribes used boomerangs too.

So even if the ancient Egyptians had one, it doesn't prove contact with Australia.

As far as I understand it, it were people related to presentday Indians.

The negrito connection dates from tens of thousands of years earlier.

Because the Dravidians (Harrapans) interbred with the indigenous people in Southern India when they were pushed down by the Aryans.

As the paper from Nature explains, the negrito connection is from many thousands of years before 2200 bce. They are not what this contact is about.

So, which people from India it was, I don't know.

Probably Dravidians. The Aryans didn't reach India until after 1500 BCE.

Ok, so it were Dravidians.

My only point for posting about this ancient contact with Australia is, that it was possible.

But I'm quite sure the Ancient Egyptians did no such thing.

Go ahead, read up
We had a thread some years back in which some so-called "experts" claimed the Kariong/ Gosford hieroglyphs were the work of actual ancient egyptians.
 

Man, we had real fun dissecting it.

They had throwing sticks, as did the Native Americans and just about everybody else on the planet.

The things that look like boomerangs are from the Middle Kingdom (usually made of ivory and usually having an incised drawing of a lioness face on one end and a jackal face on the other end) and are referred to (for lack of a better term) "magical wands" or "apotropaic wands."

Well, it already starts good:

"According to the Dutch Archaeologist, Dr. Reinoud de Jonge, Australia was discovered about 4.600 years ago by the 2nd. King Djoser of the 3rd Dynasty. "

1 - I have the original book "De Stenen Spreken" (the stones speak)

2 - Reinoud de Jonge is no archaeologist but a chemist

3 - He and his co-author IJzereef were fanatic sailors during their free time.

4 - They 'translated' certain glyphs on megalithic stones as ancient maps for sailors.

5 - With their 'free interpretation' of these socalled maps they concluded that already around 3000 bce much of the world had been mapped.

6 - There's also an American version ( with an American co-author), called, "How the Sungod reached America".

7 - Ìf you're interested, then prepare yourself for an avalanche of nautical numbers and calculations (well, in the Dutch book that is).

 

Edited to add:

Damn, I took part in that thread, already in post2, lol.

But back then I had no pc, laptop or smartphone, and had to go to the library to participate.

I agree.

Ill even go to Gosford, for the sake of this topic and see what I can see.

The boomerangs in the tombs are not boomerangs, throwing sticks, yes.

Was one of my first topics.
