THE PYRAMID TEXTS

The Pyramid Texts were funerary inscriptions that were written on the walls of the early Ancient Egyptian pyramids at Sakkara. These date back to the fifth and sixth dynasties, approximately the years 2350-2175 B.C.E. However it is believed that they were composed much earlier, circa 3000 B.C.E. The Pyramid Texts are, therefore, essentially the oldest sacred texts known.

harachte = heru/ har (the god formerly known as "horus of the two horizons" lol)
(hmm, is that where they got hours from? horus -- of two horizons meaning time, night and day, sunrise. sunset... i wonder?)

Ennead (Greek Ἐννεάς, meaning the nine), an ancient Greek translation of the Egyptian word, Pesedjet, consists of a grouping of nine deities, most often appearing in the context of Egyptian mythology

SO WE ARE GONNA CALL IT THE ANNU PESEDJET
(anu hmmm? anunnaki!?)

Creation myth of the Annu pesedjet

From the primeval waters represented by Nun, a mound appeared. Upon the mound sat Ra, who had begotten himself. Bored and alone, he masturbated or, according to other stories, spat, producing air, Shu, and moisture, Tefnut. Shu and Tefnut in turn mated and she gave birth to the Earth, Geb, and the sky, Nut. Because of their initial closeness, Geb and Nut engaged in continuous copulation until Shu separated them, lifting Nut into her place in the sky. The children of Geb and Nut were Isis, Nephthys, Osiris, and Seth.

Ka = pharaoh

more to come later...
