This cloisonné pectoral is inlaid with 372 carefully cut pieces of semiprecious stones. The heraldic design is replete with symbolism. Zigzag lines on the base bar represent the primordial waters out of which the primeval hill emerged. Each of the falcons, symbols of the sun god, clasps a circular hieroglyph meaning "encircled," thus declaring the solar deity's supreme power over the universe. The same hieroglyph, elongated to form a cartouche, encircles the throne name of Senwosret II, Khakheperre. Flanking the king's name are two ankh hieroglyphs (meaning "life") suspended from cobras whose tails are wound around the sun disk on the falcons' heads. These snakes represent Nekhbet and Udjo, the traditional protector goddesses of the king. Supporting the royal cartouche is the kneeling god Heh clutching two palm ribs symbolizing "millions of years." Thus the king's life and existence in time are described as part of a universe created and sustained by the supreme sun god.

DISCOVERY. A circle with a 100 foot radius. Revealed by the pointings of the Great Pyramid’s Trial Passages, described in my last IG video. The #TrialPassages pointings to #Khafre, #Menkaure, and the #pyramid of #Lahun, were transferred to the entrance of the #GreatPyramid, since that is what the entrance of the Trial Passages symbolizes. . Those lines go tangent through this circle with two buses acting like chalk sticks at those tangents. ΑΩ. #Synchronicity. . This 100’ circle is inside the Holy Circle with 888’ radius which we discovered and have written about. The center of the Holy Circle is surrounded by the Holy Shaft with circumference of 100’ and connected by exact 100’ distances to most of the main #Giza monuments and features. .

In the #subterranean #passages underneath the #Pyramid of #Lahun, in the changing #umbras of the interplay of #light and #dark, I enjoyed some #magical moments with #Shakespeare #scholar and #polymath @thebardcode Alan Green, speaking of the mysterious nature of markings inside the #GreatPyramid, as two exploratory expeditions converged, like opposed #Fibonacci #spirals reciprocating a #designed course, @robertedwardgrant leading #egypt2020αxω and @sagesilent leading #EgyptLeap2020. . I enjoyed the momentary glow I received in your presence Alan!! . Come with #AIP to #Egypt in November 2020😃⚡️🗝 (at Ellâhûn, Al Fayyum, Egypt) https://www.instagram.com/p/CA23c8XHK39/?igshid=1ozfuhylhm8cu

Part of a procession of gods, from the pyramid-temple of Senusret II at Lahun. The god in the centre is Sopdu, Lord of the East, given the form of what Egyptologists call an Asiatic (that is, someone from the Middle East). Now at the Met.
