Chapter 383: Egyptian Civilization Was Forged by Ptolemy

When Guo Kang first learned about this organization, he also thought they were very strange. In other words, it has the unique "mash-and-match" style of the Purple Horde.

Of course, some of these ideas are outrageous enough even for a less devout believer like him—some of the more radical clergy, for example, believe that the whole world is actually a dialect of Chinese. It's just that it's too far away, and it's been separated for too long, that it's the seemingly unrelated situation it is now.

But even so, there are still people who follow this line of thought and study ancient phonetics.

By searching the rhyme books of Seris in ancient times, they really found traces: for example, the word "father", according to the records of the literature, it is speculated that the ancient Chinese should have pronounced "ba". And against this pronunciation, it is not difficult to find that this is the case in many other places.

In the Church, for example, the word father is often used as "papa," whether in Greek or Latin, or even in the languages of the Germanic barbarians. Until now, priests still use this name, and even the bishops of Rome use it as their own name. Come to think of it, this word should be derived from Chinese, and in the process of circulation, there has been a slight consonant change, forming the current form.

The priests believe that this is a good proof. But on the other hand, it also shows the importance of words.

Why haven't the words "father" and "mother" changed? Because people are born of fathers and mothers. The concept is too basic, so even after all these years, there has been no noticeable change. But other words, there is no guarantee.

If there is no text as an anchor, then once there is a change, let alone communication, and even the current scriptures will not be understood.

This is not alarmist either.

On the eastern shores of the Mediterranean, one sometimes finds ancient ruins written in strange letters and pens like wooden wedges. Some speculate that this is the text of the Persian Empire, which was destroyed by Alexander, in the records of the ancient Greeks.

However, now no one recognizes these things at all, not even the Persians themselves. Because of the Persian language in the Middle Ages, a new set of letters was changed, and as a result, the previous characters were forgotten......

The Persians are a civilization with a relatively long history and deep accumulation, and the situation of others is not as good as theirs. If it goes on like this, it will definitely not work.

Therefore, they believe that no matter what kind of classics they are, it is best to use Chinese characters as the original and record them in a unified manner. When it is necessary to use it, according to different dialects, convenient popular phonetic symbols are used to facilitate the explanation to believers.

Guo Kang actually felt that their theory did not stand up to scrutiny.

For example, because the pronunciation of parents is the same in different languages, it is said that they are all derived from Chinese, which is very far-fetched. This observation does not prove that "both Greek and Germanic languages are derived from ancient Chinese", but at most shows that "Greek, Germanic, and Chinese have a common origin". The rest is all forcible argumentation.

The popularity of their theories is not so much logical as it is in line with everyone's needs.

After all, in these years, if this "mother's birth" theory is used to prove that the Germanic language is a descendant of the Chinese language, the Han people feel that the education is all over the place, and the Germanic people feel that they have climbed the high branches, although it is very far-fetched, but everyone is very happy;

But if you argue that the Chinese language is a descendant of the Germanic language, then the Han people will think that this is an insult, and the Germanic people will only think that someone is deliberately sarcastic about him. If everyone doesn't like it, it won't be popular......

At first, Guo Kang thought it was ironic. But when I think about it, it's actually pretty good.

Although the theory does not conform to traditional teachings, and the understanding of linguistics is completely different from the results of modern research, not only is the purpose good, but also a lot of good things have been done when it is implemented. An organization like this, which is already rare, what more could you ask for......

The biggest problem is that although this theory has been widely circulated and a series of expositions have been completed, there are still two dark clouds that cannot be ignored although they are not big.

One of them was made by Guo Kang himself.

On a whim, he proposed to his father-in-law that some old Greek nobles who had nothing to do be sent to Crete for archaeology. As a result, the stepmother heard it and thought it was very interesting. Under the impetus of her and her grandfather, this matter actually came to pass.

As a result, over the years, the old nobles have really dug up some things one after another. Some ancient pottery shards have ancient letters that are completely unknown to them, and even the most knowledgeable scholars do not know what they mean.

At the moment, they can only estimate that this is a record left by people in an era earlier than the classical period. Only now, the Greeks have long since abandoned this way of writing, so no one still recognizes it.

The project has continued since, and even in the past few years, they have continued to find new evidence.

On the island of Crete, according to Guo Kang's memory, it is really possible to find hieroglyphs, and then verify how hieroglyphs developed into alphabetic writing.

If this set of hieroglyphs different from those of the Central Plains is discovered, the theory of "the origin of all things" will probably be punctured.

And compared to this, there is a closer dark cloud, which is in Egypt.

On the Egyptian side, there are many relics from ancient times. Ancient kings built a large number of mausoleums, temples, and monuments, many of which remain on the surface of the earth, and can be seen at a glance when you travel around the place.

The ancient Greeks referred to these ancient kings as "pharaohs", which means huge palaces. Probably just like the Central Plains people call His Majesty, they do not directly address themselves, but use architecture as a substitute to show respect.

Ancient Greece and Ancient Egypt had close contacts and were greatly influenced by their civilizations, so they learned the name as well.

And in the ruins of the time of the pharaohs, there are many things that are obviously hieroglyphs. This trace is too obvious, and there are so many of them, that it is certainly impossible to ignore.

The priests of the Tower of Babel have also noticed this.

Their theory is that "only Chinese characters are regular scripts, and all other so-called scripts are phonetic codes", but if there was a separate script in ancient Egypt, this theory is not easy to explain.

So, at the moment, they can only say that Egypt may have something similar, proving that writing is a very ancient existence, and it may have something to do with Chinese characters. However, the Egyptians later fell and abandoned the true written word, so they fell into a state of despair and never prospered on their own. This tells people how much influence the real product of civilization is.

This explanation is, of course, equally far-fetched, because no one can prove that Egypt is also a derivative of the Central Plains. So, some clergy are becoming more and more extreme.

Some have tried to examine the chronology of Egypt to prove that it is much more recent than the prehistoric dynasty of Seris; Some people simply deny it, saying that many of the current relics are forged by later generations.

- For example, Ptolemy, the Diadochi of Egypt, was both cultured and cunning. In order to gain the support of the locals, he often imitated the pharaohs and even built temples of Egyptian gods. In order to elevate his status, he also declared himself an Egyptian god. These evidences of how ancient the Egyptian civilization were, at first glance, were forged by Ptolemy and others for the sake of boasting.

In particular, I have made up the teachings and denominations of the Roman Church in the book, if not specifically stated "how it was in history".

There are many references to reality, such as Taoism, Gnosticism and Sufi mysticism, and even the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, but it is so hard to say which part is purely quoted...... Anyway, it's just an overhead.

Someone asked me today, and I thought I'd like to talk about it specifically. Don't be taken seriously by anyone else......

In addition, I'll go back and see if I can compile the "Heavenly Brother Salvation Sutra". Actually, I think that's the most interesting part of writing a book.

Thank you all for your support
