Seshat… Egyptian 'goddess of the Internet'.

Egyptologist Anson Hunter starts receiving intriguing emails from a female who calls herself Seshat...

 Seshat - 'the Internet goddess' features in 'The Forbidden Glyphs', Egypt Mystery and Archaeology Fiction.



In a curious loop of time, the ancient Egyptian goddess Seshat has found new recognition today. Referred to as the ‘Silicon Goddess’ or ‘Glass Cat’, she is seen as the spirit of the Internet, computers, operating systems, software, web and game architecture, telecommunications, electronic networks and knowledge systems.



Originally, Seshat was ancient Egypt’s goddess of writing, chief librarian and keeper of the forbidden scrolls of Thoth, goddess of knowledge, architecture, science, mathematics, astronomy, reckoner of years and of foreign booty as well as a keeper of history and memories.

A puzzling scroll turned up in the Egyptian tomb of a young girl.

THE EGYPTIAN PRINCESS Who Lost Her Scroll of the Dead

A NOTE FROM HISTORY:

A puzzling scroll turned up in the tomb of a young girl.

Archaeologists found a totally blank, rolled up scroll, nothing marking its surface, except the faintly ribbed grain of the papyrus and a few stains of age.

Fine quality papyrus, yet an unused scroll. A mystery. But from the scroll’s container, we know it was supposed to contain the written texts of the Book of the Dead, a guide for the soul of the dead in the underworld, a sort of passport filled with magical spells.

Without it, a soul could not hope to pass through gateways guarded by fearsome gatekeepers and so reach the heavenly Fields of Aaru.

What had happened? Had a greedy scribe secretly tricked the young girl, exchanging her costly scroll, filled with hieroglyphic spells, for a blank one, so that he could sell it again to another family?

Imagine her dismay when she found herself alone and unprotected in the dangers of the Egyptian underworld, clutching an empty scroll of papyrus?
