Garden of Eden

In writing about the Tower of Babel, I also mentioned the Garden of Eden. It instigated a brainstorm, which resulted in the idea this paradise might be the irrigated Nile Valley: Very fertile banks, or the Kemet, quite immediately and very clearly separated from the Deshret. The river initially splits into four branches, two upstream & two downstream:

  • The Black Nile might be the Pishon, streaming around Havila, associated with Punt, where gemstones & gold are found
  • The Blue Nile might be the Gihon, streaming around Cush, associated with Ethiopia, passing through Shinar?
  • The Damietta Branch might be the Hiddekel, streaming east of Ash(h)ur, refering to the fertile soils of the Nile Delta?
  • The Rosetta Branch might be the Phrath, streaming west of that rich agricultural region amid many river branches

Garden translates in Greek as ‘κήπος’ (kipos), if you add a Greek ‘e’, it extends to‘ε-κήπος’ (e-kipos). The last part of ‘π’ resembles a ‘τ’, so a little error in scripture eventually might lead to ‘εκήπτος’ (ekiptos), it might be an explanation for the country’s name ...

According to professor Fomenko, the Hyksos & Mamluk are the same people, originating from Scythia. In it’s western part, many rivers flow, all starting with the consonants ‘d’ & ‘n’ and a vowel in between. If we take the starting character of Egypt and combine it with the three characters mentioned before, it might result in Eden, which might be another name for the river with fertile banks, roughly stretching from Meroë to Caïro ...

‘Egypt’ in Greek is written as ‘Αἴγυπτος’, so ‘Αἴ’ = ‘e’. The ruins of Ai are considered to be found in modern Palestine. According to professor Finkelstein, interviewed by Simcha Jacobovici, the city on that spot didn’t exist in Joshua’s time: Should we link the city to another spot, Joshua to another time, or both?

Tower of Babel

According to different historical sources, the construction of the Tower of Babel led to the scattering of languages around the globe. This is a simplified mythical explanation, but it might make sense ...

Historians locate Babylon in Mesopotamia, but in Coptic Caïro also the remnants of Babylon Fortress are found. Next to these remnants we can find what is called the Hanging Church. A church might be seen as a garden of tranquility, maybe the Garden of Eden?

Next to Caïro is Giza, where we can find the famous pyramids, the only remaining of the original seven world wonders. Up until the last centuries, the Khufu one remained the highest building ever made by mankind. It’s still a structure reaching high up into the sky, about its construction & purpose debates still go on ...

Originally, those pyramids had a white outer layer, which you can still see on the top of the Khafre one. Earthquakes trembled them down later, so nowadays the limestone under this original layer becomes visible. The fallen blocks were used in the construction of buildings in the city ...

According to the Borsippa Inscription, an earthquake trembled down the blocks of the tower. It also tells us that people left the place in total speech confusion long before the earthquake. Hieroglyphs are considered as the foundation of many written languages around the world. The following questions arise:

  • Are the destruction of the pyramids and the scattering of languages connected?
  • Was the inscription in Borsippa made by migrants?
  • Was medieval Fustat the spot of a destroyed city near the fortress, bearing its name?
  • Are the ruïns in Mesopotamia the real Babylon?
