Mystery Of Saqqara

in #science7 years ago (edited)

Saqqara Pyramid According To Egyptologists Is The Oldest Pyramid, Highly Doubt That As There Are Older Pyramid Structures On Earth Such As The Bosnian Pyramids And Gunung Padang. The Real Mystery Of Saqqara Lies Underground Where There Are Gigantic Tunnels, Some Of Them Are 700 Meters Long And Large Enough To Drive A Car Through. One Of Them Is Called Serapeum Subterranean Tunnels, Where There Are Niches On Either Side Of The Tunnel Wall Which Have Been Carved Out Of The Bedrock, Inside The Niches Are Huge Sarcophaguses. The Lower Part Of The Sarcophaguses Weighs Up To 60 Tons And The Lid Weighs From 20 To 40 Tons. The Material These Sarcophaguses Are Made Out Of Consist Of Aswan Granite, Aswan Is A City By The Nile About 1000 Km Away. What Reason Did The Ancient Egyptians Construct These Sarcophaguses?

150 Years Ago An Archeologist By The Name Of Auguste Mariette Was At Saqqara And Stumbled Over A Stone And Saw A Word Engraved On It, The Word Read Apis, He Was Electrified Because Apis Was The Sacred Bull In Ancient Egypt. Auguste Mariette Knew This Apis Bull Once Existed, But The Archeologists Had Never Found A Mummy Of It. There Were Other Bulls In Ancient Times Ordinary Bulls But The Apis Was Completely Different, It Was Not Natural Born But In Fact It Was Created Directly By The Gods, Only The Priests Were Allowed To Touch The Apis Bull. The Chronicles Wrote Apis Was A Monster, He Often Caused Smaller Temples To Collapse, He Destroyed Corn Fields, Killed Old Men, Infants And The People Were Frightened By Him. Nobody Was Aloud To Harm Or Kill The Apis Bull, He Was Holy Like The Cow Today In India.

Auguste Mariette Thought He Would Find Mummies Near By, He Did Not Proceed So Delicately As Archeologists Do Today. Mariette In His Time Sunk Dynamite Poles Into The Ground Again And Again As He Blew Them Up And Holes Were Blown Out, With Such A Bang He Slipped Down Into A Hole. As He Got Torches From Above And The Dust From The Explosions Dispersed He Stood In Front Of A Sarcophagus Which Is Perfectly Created. Mariette Was Overly Joyed He Thought These Must Be Made For The Apis Bull. They Grabbed Crowbars And Pried The First Lid Up, Mariette Let A Scream Out As His Breath Had Almost Burned His Lungs Out, Gasping For Breath The Men Went Up To The Surface Of The Desert To Recover For About 20 Minutes Then They Went Back Down Again With Wet Cloths Shrouded Over Their Faces. Why Did This Happen? The Reason Being All Of The Sarcophaguses Were Filled Up To The Lid With Bitumen.

Bitumen Is A Natural Asphalt, It Was The Smell Of Bitumen That Almost Burned The Lungs Of Mariette And His Team. Mariette Went Back Three Days Later When The Workers Had Removed The Bitumen And Brought It To The Surface Of The Desert. Inside Of The Bitumen They Found Thousands Of Small Broken Bones Of Different Animals. Every Sarcophagus Was The Same Broken Splintered Bones Of All Kinds Of Beasts But No Mummy Of The Sacred Apis Bull And Here Begins The Real Mystery Of Saqqara.

In Egypt Every Living Creature Was Mummified Not Only Humans Or Kings, They Mummified Everything, The Reason Being There Belief In Reincarnation. In Our Time We Have A Body, Consciousness And The Soul , The Ancient Egyptian Had Something Similar Which They Called The Body Ka And Ba, They Believed Reincarnation Was Only Possible When The Body Was Preserved As A Whole. They Mummified Ducks, Fish, Cats, Apes And Even Small Insects Like Scorpions Ad Spiders.

Here Under The Saqqara Pyramids Are The Bodies Of Two Hundred Thousand Crocodiles, Thousands Of Apes And Unbelievably Four Million Birds. Every Bird Is Prepared In It Own Oil, Linen And Canopic Jars. He Mummified Everything Because They Believed In Reincarnation So Much So The Even Mummified Ants And As Mentioned In This Article The Sarcophaguses Had Thousands Of Broken, Splintered Bones.

The Way People Believe Today The World Will Come To An End By What Ever The Disaster Maybe, So Did The Ancient Egyptians. They Were Afraid Their World Could Be Destroyed So They Mummified Everything So The World May Be Inhabited Again After The Destruction. The Way The Bones Were Discovered In The Sarcophaguses By Mariette Is Absolutely Impossible In The Tradition Of Mummification The Whole Body Ad To Be Preserved.

So Imagine Some Worker In Aswan Thousands Or Millions Of Years Ago Cut The Hardest Granite That Is Known To Exists In Ancient Egypt From The Aswan Granite Quarry And The Raw Material Had To Be Polished. Between Aswan And Saqqara There Are Three Cataracts Which Today Means They Had To Unload The Ship Three Times And Finally Arrived In Saqqara. In Saqqara The Work Force Cut Out Underground Tunnels, They Construct The Niches Right And Left. The Workers Somehow Managed To Move These Heavy Sarcophaguses Into These Tunnels And Finally Place Them In Their Final Resting Spots. All This Trouble For What Broken Bones Which Was Against Their Religion Of Mummification, The Whole Body Had To Be Preserved. To Break Bones Doesn’t Make Any Sense, Something Is Completely Wrong Here?
