Since childhood i've had a fascination for ancient egypt, it's culture, religion and general magnificence of it. I remember as a child watching the film land of the pharaohs with joan collins (I don't wonta die) and laughing at how wrong it all seemed to be, the hundreds of jewish slaves etc. this also coincided with my being kicked out of girl guides and sunday school for asking too many questions about why should i believe in one life and one god. 1977 was a real turning point for me, i discovered reincarnation and ancient egypt in the same year.
It's quite interesting to me how thoughts on the history of egypt's past has changed. Reading books and watching documentaries you can really see conflicting information. I guess that is why i'm writing this, i want to make sense of it all, that will take a life time, but in truth it will be my theory and conclusions no one else’s. How do i tackle such a subject? year by year? dynasty by dynasty? or by person? forwards or back? well i will just have to see what takes my fancy.
