Egypt still rules

 

10 lasting traditions from Ancient Egypt


1- Writing

The Ancient Egyptians invented writing and were the first people who used the pen and sheets of papyrus to register everyday activity.

2- Easter holiday
 
The Ancient Egyptians were the first to celebrate Easter and they used to colour eggs at Easter time.

3- The Calendar

The Ancient Egyptians had divided the year into seasons that consisted of 365 days. Two lasting Calendar scenes can still be seen today, one in Abydos Temple and the other at Kom-Ombo Temple. There is also a calendar masterpiece on display at the Louvre Museum in Paris.

4- Surgical instruments

The Ancient Egyptians invented several surgical instruments to use in medical operations and the famous scene of surgical instruments in Kom-Ombo Temple shows the similarity between their surgical instruments and ones used today including forceps to aid the delivery of babies.

5-  The Wedding Ring

Well that might surprise some people but the fact of the matter is giving a bride a ring on their wedding day was indeed an Ancient Egyptian tradition and of course now practised worldwide.

6- Music

We have learned from several artistic scenes in the Valley of the Nobles on the West bank of Luxor city that Music and dancing played an important part to entertain and amuse them.

7- Social Drinking (Wine & Beer)

Beer was the official drink of all Ancient Egyptians while wine was the drink of Royalties. Ancient Egyptians made their beer of barley while their wine was made out of grapes and apples. A tomb of a brewer who served an ancient Egyptian court more than 3,000 years ago has just been discovered in Luxor.
The man buried in it was “head of beer production”, archaeologists say.

8- Wrapping the dead body in Linen.

The Ancient Egyptians used to wrap their mummified bodies in white linen before they buried them; surprisingly this is still the same tradition in modern Egypt, as the dead body must be wrapped in white linen before being buried.

9-  Wrestling

One of the most important sporting scenes that had been represented in Beni-Hassan Tombs in El Minya City (Middle of Egypt 300Km south of Cairo) shows how the Ancient Egyptians were passionate about the Wrestling sport.

10- Astrology

The Temple of Dandara north of Luxor city contains the famous Zodiac scene that has the scorpion and the balance among other Horoscopic astrology figures.

Here's a little Diddy about Jack and Dianne

 The White Parties.  The media reports that Diddy's ventures were making him ridiculously rich!!!  When you stop laughing we will get down to the fact that the FBI has based their case on the fact that every single dime Diddy made was off Jack and Dianne.  Not two American kids growing up in the heartland, no Jack and Di are living it up at the white parties, as stars flock to the laughter, room 19, they come face to face with pain, this is the god of this world.  The life that is sucked away, stripped from the human that entered to emerge broken and never whole again.  Blackmailed, living with fear and hungry to stay relevant current and attend the white parties.  Listening to the podcasts on YouTube, it becomes blatant as those channel his innocence, but Diddy is no innocent man.  The pizza parties and the plastic Diddy instructed his crew to destroy only confirmed to those who listen and watch exactly what went down in the tunnels and why these...

TIME TO TESTIFY

fOR FAR TOO LONG ALL OF US HAVE BEEN DECEIVED by worthless insignificant slime that masquerade as greatness, but their stench of their actions is poisoning our very behavior and this we cannot tolerate! The buck stops here. This is Our opportunity to TESTIFY for the ALPHA AND OMEGA, JESUS CHRIST, OUR CREATOR AND OUR GOD.      As our leaders continue to align themselves against us, we are left working, selling our freedom for a value that we get to funnel back into their hands, they laundering their riches through us. The goyim, cattle and shiksta's. We slave to receive cash as we give it all back again.  We saying goodbye to all the luxuries and comforts and we stepping out into tents and camping out on the streets.  We raised our noses to the poor, the poverty, the homeless and the drifters. Condemnation, judgment and self righteousness brainwashing, but we are discovering that none of that stuff matters. The more homes we lose, the more that find themselv...

The Ghost Army

 https://rumble.com/v71q004-what-does-christian-zionism-mean-and-why-are-we-hearing-about-it-so-much-la.html?e9s=src_v5_sa_o%2Csrc_v1_sa%2Csrc_v1_ucp_a What does "Christian Zionism" mean and why are we hearing about it so much lately? Zionism will devour Christianity.  It's the nature of the snake to devour it's pray...er...prey.  Zionism holds no claim to the Second Testament, only the first and of that mostly the five books of Moses.   To be Christ-like is to be someone, a power they cannot understand or a power that no one can destroy.  The Power of Love, Jesus Christ of Nazareth or Yeshua, Lord or Saviour, Prince of Peace, Hope of all Hopes and Joy of all Joys.  All eyes on Yeshua! Deception is here among us and many deceptions are confusing, but many can see through the mist of gossip.  The Truth is beginning to haemorrhage now as you sit there on a dead's man show, dancing on his grave and putting words into his mouth.   There simp...
