The Dendera Zodiac
|
Originally posted on my blog Monday, August 08, 2005 but I thought I'd re-post it because I got sucked into reading about this last night and still find it fascinating.
Dendera (also spelled Denderah), is a little town in Egypt. Located about 5 km up Nile from Qina, on the opposite side of the Nile. Once the capital of the 6th Nome of Upper Egypt, though never that important.Located rather isolated on the desert edge, about 2.5 km south-west of the Town, lay what Dendera is known for, the mostly Greco-Roman Temple Complex, Dendera, known in ancient Egyptian as Lunet or Tantere.and
Dendera Temple complex, (Ancient Egyptian: Lunet or Tantere). located about 2.5 km south-west of Dendera, Egypt. It is one of the best, if not the best, preserved temple in all Egypt. The whole complex covers some 40.000 square meters and is surrounded by a hefty mud brick enclosed wall.Dendera was a site for chapels or shrines from the beginning of history of ancient Egypt. It seems that pharaoh Pepi I (ca. 2250 BC) built on this site and evidence exists of a temple in the eighteenth dynasty (ca 1500 BC). But the earliest extant building in the compound today is the Mammisi raised by Nectanebo II – last of the native pharaohs (360-343 BC)The main features are the Temple of the birth of Isis, Scared Lake, Sanatorium, Mammisi of Nectanebo II, Christian Basilica, Roman Mammisi, a Bark shine, Gateways of Domitian & Trajan and the Roman Kiosk – but the all overshadowing building in the Complex is the main temple, namely Hathor temple.and the Dendera Zodiac came from there...
Original Dendera's Zodiac is placed in museum in Louvre, Paris. Copy of this zodiac is in Dendera.Persons, animals, signs which are inside of zodiac are celestial bodies as planets, Sun, tenth planet (X), constellations...They can also simply show directions and shapes of orbits of planet X, when these one is crossing or is to near to orbit of particular planet of our solar system.Circumpolar constellations of southern sky are completely visible only from southern hemisphere (from Southern America, from Australia...).
After detailed analysis of signs and of constellations was clear, that in central part of Dendera's Zodiac are depicted constellations, which are surrounding southern pole of sky, that there are southern circumpolar constellations. Planet X had over turned Earth at its approach and it was written to zodiac.North pole became South pole and vice versa. I suggest you click the quoted text above and read all that is there... it really is an amazing thing.further more, Hathor contained The Dendera light is a controversial stone relief located in the Hathor temple at the Dendera Temple complex. The image is thought to be, by traditional egytoplogists, of a mythological religious nature. These scholars state that this is a lotus flower, spawning a snake within. Other egytoplogists believe that it is an electric lamp. Engineers have constructed a working model based on the relief and some authors (such as Peter Krassa and Reinhard Habeck) have produced a basic theory of the device's operation .
