Piecing Egypt's puzzles!




The Tomb of Seti I has the King List in which all the Pharaohs of Egypt are named all the way back into the First Time, the time before men, when the gods ruled Egypt. In my opinion, this only lends to the mystery of the "helicopter hieroglyph" at this site. In this particular glyph, supposedly there is a helicopter, a jet fighter, a UFO, and (of all things) a Jedi ship etched into the stone. There has been a lot of controversy over this one section of a much larger inscription high above the entranceway to Seti’s Temple. Some see it as "evidence" of ancient gods or aliens visiting Egypt and their visitation being chiseled into the temple for posterity’s sake. However, archeologists proclaim that the markings are simply palimpsest, which means that the
original text was scraped off to make way for new inscriptions. This was a common practice in Egypt as a new king took office.
And so the debate continues. Is it an original inscription of modern (and modern fictional) flying machines, or is this a pillaged writing? Is it even originally a hieroglyph at all or simply someone’s elaborate Photoshop hoax that has played on for years like an urban legend?
As a fiction writer, I was looking into ideas for a SF Egyptian story. The "helicopter hieroglyph" came to mind, so I began checking into what it was precisely. I was not surprised to find a multitude of websites claiming the hieroglyph was real and that archeologists’ claims were "full of holes." The hieroglyph plainly shows what appears to be a helicopter and other flying machines.Although I would like to believe that aliens or gods came to Earth and encouraged human ingenuity, I still seek a resolution that points to a more logical conclusion, even if the answer lies within science theory. So, I started digging deeper.
In this day and age, where photographs of everything everywhere is only a few clicks of the mouse away, it didn’t take me long to find an answer. After sifting through the multitude of conspiracy sites, I decided to go straight to the source--Egyptian sites. Lo and behold, as it turns out, the glyph is real, as was shown in a picture from http://www.1worldtours.com/Abydos.htm in the Seti I Temple photos. It was even captioned as "Abydos "Helicopter"." Exciting, right?
Well, hold on a minute. Right below that picture is another photo that proved to be more significant. It’s captioned, "What the original inscription looked like before it became the "helicopter." From another wall at Abydos."
