Working on new sites and will be updating this website too. It's really a mess, with broken links, and pages I can't find to edit.

AND, the new versions of Joomla are even worse to navigate and manage. so many options to choose and no idea what any of them are for.

SO, am on a search to totally replace this CMS.

One will be an online Photo Gallery, with Fine Art Prints for sale.

In the meantime, you can visit my other blog, René ODeay Online. to see some of my latest photojournals, and all about endangered Tigers too.

Mummies disappearing... Wandering Off ??

No need to worry, unless you just recently returned from Egypt with something you shouldn't have.

Egyptian Conservationists Fight To Protect Dwindling Mummy Population

Egyptian conservationists issued this warning:

"Experts suspect many mummies have simply become disoriented and wandered off their usual migratory paths, while others are thought to be doggedly pursuing trespassers who disturbed their sanctuaries, even as the foreign visitors return to their home countries thousands of miles away."

World-Building: "Sun Child, Prince of Egypt"

 

One of the hardest ideas to portray was how their society operated, how different their world was to ours.

The Ancient Egyptians reveled in and celebrated their annual flood of the Nile and developed systems of advance warning if the flood dangerously exceeded expectations. They eagerly anticipated the floods, with plans in place for floods that might exceed normal heights.

The idea of the many gods of Egypt is somewhat deceptive. They all came from one god, the most powerful, the original Sun God: Re. Yet Re was more than just the sun.

There was a kind of "freedom of religion", with all those gods and goddesses, yet their temple complexes and staff were necessary for the operation of the Kingdom.

 

Their temples held all the administrative, bureaucratic offices, as well as the education systems, libraries and medical resources. The temples also served as a repository for the Treasury of the Great House, of the King, with the Great Wife of the King as the Mistress.

 

Above all there was always one unifying force: the King, the God-King, the Great House of Egypt, the Lord of the Two Lands; He of the Sedge and the Bee, He who could control all the other gods and goddesses, He who made it all happen: Pharaoh.

Do you know who it is?

There is a story here that reveals the whole affair.

An "Easter Egg". You know what that means.
