    Chapter 1,353 The World-Destroying Flood

    "However, this paradise did not bathe in the sun for long. As a punishment for the faults of the island residents and excessive display of material wealth, an "extraordinarily violent earthquake and flood occurred soon after. After only one terrible day and night,  The island of Atlantis was swallowed up by the sea and disappeared"

    This is what the ancient Greek philosopher Plato mentioned in his work "Themes and Other Comments". It is not just him. There are similar records in ancient national civilizations all over the world

    duyidu.

    Read it

    Including the legend of the great flood in China and the story of Dayu's flood control. It took ten years and two generations of efforts to end the flood.

    Plato's account must have some basis in fact. There is no doubt that he added many distortions and exaggerations of his own to the account. However, he is still describing an event that actually happened, and it happened in a certain part of the world.  A place that happened a long time ago

    What¡¯s more, people today have also seen the most meaningful point: Plato clearly stated that the memory of that event was suppressed by the Egyptian priests and was recorded in the "Priests' Writings"

    If a similar memory had been preserved in Mesopotamia, it is even less likely to be a pure coincidence. A far more reasonable explanation is that the same catastrophe, wherever it occurred,  Both areas have left legends ""

    Read the latest chapter

    So the scholars once again took a closer look at the legends in which they had previously found a correspondence between the god Soth and the Sumerian moon god "Sin", so the discovery was not surprising.

    Like the Egyptians of their time, the Sumerians not only worshiped a wise moon god, but also preserved records of a great flood in ancient times that destroyed a great and prosperous powerful society.

    Therefore, as the research progresses, we can gradually see one thing clearly: "Atlantis" does indeed symbolize the "hypothetical undiscovered area", and the amazing Egyptian and Sumerian civilizations both came from there.

    Some people have said that they do not believe that the area is in the Atlantic Ocean, or even near the Atlantic Ocean. On the contrary, those people heartily agree with Professor Emery's view that the area is roughly between the Nile Delta and the lower Euphrates River, perhaps somewhere somewhere.  On a lost archipelago, similar to the modern Maldives

    Scientists believe that due to rising sea levels due to global warming, the Maldives Islands will be wiped out by giant grasshoppers in the next 50 years; or large areas of coastal areas in the Horn of Africa that have not been archaeologically excavated; or floods in the Indian subcontinent.  an area that was ravaged, such as modern Bangladesh

    Plato once mentioned that there were elephants in "Atlantis", which makes the above speculation about the equatorial region more credible. For thousands of years, elephants have only lived in Africa, India and Southeast Asia.

    Suppose a technologically advanced society was destroyed by a great flood somewhere around the Indian Ocean basin in early or mid 4000 B.C.

    Suppose it was a society near the sea, and some people survived the flood. Suppose some of them came to Egypt and Mesopotamia by ship, landed there, and shouldered the mission of spreading civilization to the primitive inhabitants there.

    Most importantly, it is assumed that in Egypt, the priests' legends about the "sacred science" were to preserve and pass on to future generations the skills and know-how taught by the foreign settlers.

    In Egypt, these legends have been linked to the moon god Thos from the beginning, and in Mesopotamia, they are linked to the moon god "Sin". This may be because those outsiders worship the moon themselves, or because they are witty and calm and deliberately encourage the locals.  People deify something that is very eye-catching and familiar to people

    But still scary, mysterious, like a star

    Their purpose is to shape and guide the simple and barbaric thinking of the local people, so they created a long-lasting belief that can survive for thousands of years, using it as a carrier to carry their wisdom

    Otherwise, the wisdom would be fragmented and easily forgotten. In this case, they chose a strange, shiny moon god instead of someone more abstract and complex, less visible, less tangible.  God, the reason is not difficult to understand

    In any case, once the worship of Soth was established in early Egypt, its priests learned the scientific and technological "know-how" brought by outsiders and institutionalized them

    Therefore, a reasonable hypothesis can be made: Egypt at that time had already begun a process of making itself eternal, wrapping the newly discovered valuable knowledge in some mysteries, and using various etiquette restrictions to prevent outsiders from accessing it.to acquire this knowledge in order to pass it on from generation to generation among the enlightened through an exclusive secret tradition

    This knowledge would, of course, give its possessor unprecedented power to control the physical world, at least, by the rudimentary standards of the childish culture that dominated Egypt before the arrival of outsiders.

    And the way this knowledge is expressed will also shock the layman. A very important reason is the awe-inspiring and magnificent buildings built.

    The Pyramid Sphinx and various huge obelisks are difficult to restore even with the technological capabilities of modern society.

    And in ancient times thousands of years ago, the Egyptians did it

    So it is easy to understand how belief in the moon god "invented" science and magic and generally controlled the population. Likewise, it is not difficult to understand why the priests of this moon god were regarded as masters of magic.  Hard to understand

    Belief in Soth "laden" and preserved a secret tradition of knowledge and enlightenment that was begun in the most remote past by a few educated immigrants who survived the Great Flood. There is a very powerful author in this regard.  Theme is of great significance

    The Egyptians believed that all their knowledge and science came from Thos, and believed that he created a great flood to punish human beings for their evil. Chapter 175 of the "Book of the Dead" tells this plot, which says that Thos and Osei  Reese co-created the Great Flood

    When mankind flourished again after the flood, these two gods successively ruled on the earth. Therefore, when scholars read the legend of Osiris more carefully and found that he was "rescued from the water," they were very excited.

    From 46 AD to 120 AD, the ancient Greek historian Plutarch made the most complete account of this ancient Egyptian legend. He said that Osiris transformed his subjects and taught them various useful skills.  skills, formulated the first code for them, and then left Egypt to travel around the world and bring the benefits of civilization to other peoples

    He never forced the barbarians he met to accept his laws but persuaded them and awakened their reason. It is also recorded that Osiris taught the barbarians through poetry recitation and singing accompanied by musical instruments.

    But while Osiris was away in Egypt, 72 members of his court and his brother-in-law Seth were plotting to overthrow him. After returning to Egypt, the conspirators invited him to attend a banquet.

    There was an exquisite gold-covered wooden box at the banquet, and the conspirators said that they would give it as a reward to whoever could fit inside it.

    How did Osiris know that the wooden box was made according to his figure?

    As a result, the guests at the banquet tried to lie down in the wooden box one by one, but they all failed. When it was the god king's turn, he lay down comfortably in the box.

    Before he could come out, the conspirators rushed forward, nailed the lid of the box tightly, and sealed the gaps in the box with lead water to prevent air from entering. Then, they threw the box into the Nile River.  The box floated on the river for some time and finally came to rest on a papyrus swamp in the eastern Nile Delta.

    At this time, Osiris' wife Ais stepped in. With the help of the moon god Sos, Ais used all her powerful magic to find the wooden box. She found the wooden box and hid it in a secret place.  place

    However, her evil brother Seth was hunting by the swamp and found the place where the wooden box was hidden. He opened the wooden box and became furious. He chopped Osiris's body into 14 pieces and threw them into Egypt.  everywhere

    Ais set out again to "rescue" her husband. She made a small boat out of papyrus, covered it with asphalt and asphalt, and took the boat on the Nile to search for her husband's broken corpses. After finding them, she asked Soth for help.  , they recited a powerful spell together to reconnect the broken corpses and restore them to their original appearance.

    From then on, Osiris remained intact and safe. After resurrection, he became the god of the dead and the king of the underworld. Legend says that Osiris sometimes turned into a mortal and returned to the earth from the underworld.

    There are three details in this legend that interest modern scholars the most: first, when Osiris ruled the earth, he was actually a civilizer and legislator; second, he was put into a wooden tree.  box and thrown into the Nile; finally, Ais took a papyrus boat coated with pitch and tar to save Osiris's body.

    The experience of Moses is very similar to that of Osiris, which couldn't be more obvious: Moses also became a great spreader of civilization and legislator; he was also thrown into the Nile River, and he was also put on a painted  in a bulrush box of pitch and tar; he was also rescued by an Egyptian princess

    Indeed, as the historian Josephus recorded, the name "Moses" itself means "rescued from the water" because the Egyptians called water 'mou' and the rescued people 'eses'.?So they put these two words together as the name of Moses

    Another great classical critic, Fei Yu, also agreed with this etymological explanation and came to the same conclusion as above.

    In Egypt, and perhaps in Mesopotamia, are there any records mentioning other propagators of civilization who were "rescued from the water"?

    Archaeologists are very interested in these records, and of course they have made discoveries

    This was the case with Orus, the son of Ace and Osiris. He was murdered by the Titans and thrown into the Nile. Ace saved him and resurrected him with magic. Orus later learned "medicine and prophecy" from Ace.  techniques and use them to benefit mankind.¡±

    The same was true for Sargon the Great of Mesopotamia. In the late 3000 BC, his rule brought unprecedented wealth, glory and stability to Sumer and its surrounding areas. He once spoke very specifically about his being  After being rescued from the water, he claimed that his mother was a priestess and did not know who my father was.

    It¡¯s just that his mother got pregnant with him and gave birth to him secretly. She put him into a box made of reeds, sealed the lid with pitch, and put the box into a river. The water was not deep.

    The river took Sargon away and gave me to Archie, who was responsible for offering wine during the ceremony. The kindhearted Archie saw Sargon and pulled him up from the river. This incident was later recorded in "The New  LaRose Encyclopedia of Mythology

    The ancient history of mankind is full of mysteries and incredible miracles, but this knowledge is inaccessible to ordinary people. In the history textbooks of the bastards, the only knowledge written about ancient times is backwardness, ignorance and poverty.

    But in fact, the conclusions drawn by archaeologists are completely opposite. Most ancient civilizations are prosperous and stable, and have very advanced knowledge systems.

    The theme of "salvation by water" also runs through the Old Testament very clearly. For example, the prophet Jonah once fell into the sea during a storm and was swallowed alive by a big fish. He spent three days in the fish's belly and was later "vomited".  On dry land" to preach God's instructions to the residents of Nineveh so that they could change their evil ways and do good.

    The story of Noah is older and more familiar. He and his family and "two of every kind of living creature" escaped the primordial flood in an extraordinary lifeboat.

    Now almost everyone knows that the boat is called the "Ark". The Bible describes it in detail: "Build an Ark out of Gopher woodand put it on the inside and outside with rosin."

    After the great flood receded, Noah¡¯s three sons Shemham and Japheth heard God¡¯s command to ¡°be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth¡± and they went to the world to repopulate the human race.

    However, the most famous biblical figure who was "rescued from the water" is Jesus Christ. Apart from Moses, Jesus is the only person described in the Gospels as "powerful in word and deed"

    Scholars all know that this statement refers to Jesus' ability to perform magic spells. The "rescue" mentioned here is not a real rescue out of the water, but a symbol, which shows that Jesus was baptized in the Jordan River.

    Jesus explains that this is absolutely necessary to obtain salvation: ¡°Except a man be born of water, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.¡±

    At that time, Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan River. As soon as he came up from the water, he saw the heavens being rent open, the Holy Spirit descending on him like a dove, and a voice coming from heaven.  Say: ¡°You are my beloved Son, and I rejoice in you!¡±

    Christ began to perform his miracles only after understanding this knowledge. This was not accidental. The miracles performed by Christ included healing diseases, raising the dead, and multiplying loaves and fishes.

    Chapter 14 of the New Testament Matthew says that Jesus fed 5,000 people with five loaves and two fish. Chapter 15 also records that Jesus fed 4,000 people with seven loaves and a few fish.

    Not only that, Jesus also summoned wind and rain, etc., which immediately reminds people that the high priests and wizards of ancient Egypt were also well-trained and could perform the same "magic"

    Those who know how to make fur can only be a magician or something like that. That is all childish. They are nothing more than performers who make people laugh on the stage.

    Talking about ancient civilizations again, it does not mean that all the relevant characters are real survivors of that "supposed undiscovered area". They all come from that supposed technologically advanced society, most likely Mesopotamia and Egypt.  cradle of civilization

    In fact, only Noah and Osiris were far enough back in prehistory to possibly belong to that region. However, Sargon the Great, Moses, Jonah, and Jesus were also both "rescued from the water," or so they were.  Was rescued, or symbolically

    Therefore, scholars believe that what this recurring image implies is that the characters in question have mastered a tradition of secret wisdom that began long ago and was brought by survivors of the Great Flood.

    Because they want thisThese life-and-death knowledge and skills are on the verge of being passed down, otherwise they will soon be forgotten.

    In addition to the evidence that can be deduced from myths and legends, a more solid evidence has been found in Egypt, which can support the theory of "rescue from water"

    This evidence is that complete sea ships are buried next to all important tombs of pharaohs and nobles, and next to almost all pyramids

    Archaeologists still regard this practice as a religious ritual, based on the time-honored adage: "If you don't understand a particular custom, the safest way is to attribute it to a religion."

    However, scholars have gradually seen one thing clearly: the motive of using ships for burials is probably not just to place a physical object next to the tomb, "to symbolize a means of transportation that can carry the soul of the deceased king to  The final destination in paradise¡±

    One of the most typical examples of this is a splintered pine boat buried in a deep pit on the south side of the Great Pyramid of Giza. It has now been reassembled and placed in a special museum on the site.  The wooden boat was built more than 4,500 years ago and is still in good condition

    The length of this large ship is at least 142 feet, and its displacement is about 40 tons. Its structure is particularly interesting, because it has all the typical characteristics of a sea ship, with an upturned bow and stern, and is taller than a Viking ship.  Splitting the waves and waves instead of dealing with the little ripples of the Nile

    That was 4000 BC!  It was only in the Ming Dynasty that China built a nine-masted treasure ship that could sail across the ocean!  (To be continued
