| Who were they? |
Ancient menace and supernatural beings haunt this Egypt
fiction
The ancient dead and the ghostly suggestion of Egypt’s supernatural beings are ever present, as well as the real-world dangers of tomb traps, forbidden secrets and modern conspiracies that take their impetus from ancient Egypt.
So, on the subject of supernatural beings, who were they?
Anson
Hunter, hero of a 7-book series, mentions a text from the eighteenth Nome
of Upper Egypt that describes a whole necropolis of buried gods.
'The gods lived and died, all except the High God, according to the Egyptians.
A
copy of the Turin Papyrus documents the life spans of Egypt's gods in a
detailed list. It records that these supreme beings enjoyed life spans
of between 200 and 3,126 years. If you can conceive, even for a moment,
that they existed, then who were they? These were the First Timers of
the age of Zep Tepi. This was a time when Egypt was ruled by a race of
so-called gods known as the Neteru, some humanoid, some hybrids.'
