Darkness
fell on the sleepy city of Memphis. A
viper was placed on the bed of an unsuspecting woman. Her name was Queen
Hapshepsut. She wore out her welcome as the ruler of Egypt. She sighed loudly when the snake bit her leg
and the venom started coursing through her veins. She was dead in a few
minutes. The Egyptian guards carried her body to the Nile River and dumped it
in the water. Her body sunk to the deep depths of the dark water never to be
seen again.
The
Brotherhood of the Serpent, the Shemsu Hor, held a secret meeting to discuss a
replacement for Queen Hapshepsut. Maat called the meeting to order.
“Our goal of making lots of money was
working. The Queen was supportive of our goal to rob the commoners of their
hard-earned money by coercing them to buy amulets and spells to provide them
with protection. I can’t believe she went against our other goal of making
Egypt a patriarchal kingdom. Giving women the same rights as men was
ridiculous. They need to be kept in their place, under our thumbs,” said Gamal.
“She did promise to follow all of
our rules. The queen proved to be a liar in the end,” replied Lapis.
“Using one of our brothers to do her
in was brilliant. She never saw it coming,” said Adom.
“We need to find someone who will
follow our orders without any questions. One who agrees that women need to be
put in their place,” said Gamal.
“We need a pharaoh who is also cold
hearted. One who can turn the other cheek when we have to torture or maim the
disobeyers,” said Lapis.
“We are in this for the money and
control and we have to stop anyone who gets in our way,” said Gamal.
“May I make a suggestion?” asked
Aharon.
“Yes,” replied Gamal.
“I suggest we give Amenhotep III a
chance to be the ruler,” said Aharon.
“He knows how to follow orders. He
does not ask any questions and he has agreed to help with the punishment of
anyone who disobeys us. He killed his own brother for stealing a basket of
amulets,” said Gamal.
“I think we can trust him. He likes
money as much as we do. He does not treat his wife well. I saw him slap her
across the face when she spoke out of turn,” said Rashid.
“I will talk to him tomorrow to see
if he wants the position and if he will be willing to follow all of our orders
no matter how harsh they may seem at times,” said Aharon.
In
the deepest recesses of the pharoahs’ minds they felt they were the chosen
ones. Amenhotep III gladly accepted the role as pharaoh and agreed to Gamal’s
demands that he must follow all orders of the Amun priesthood. Amonhotep III
approached his role as the new pharaoh with bated anticipation. He signed the
papers by using his own blood. Gamal patted him on the back and welcomed him.
Everyone in the room applauded when he sat on the throne for the first time. He
smiled at everyone in attendance. A crown was placed on his head. The crown was
etched with leaves made of gold.
The new pharaoh was given
his first assignment. An assignment that would test the hardiest of individuals.
His first assignment as the new pharaoh involved entering the lodging of
pilgrims who traveled from the East and kill everyone including the children
and their family dogs, twenty-one pilgrims in all. Amonhotep was told they were
spies, trying to gain secrets from the Egyptian government. He was also ordered
to send one of his sons, Akid, who was only ten years of age, with Gamal to go
to battle against the inhabitants of Edu. Amonhotep readily carried out both
tasks without batting an eyelash.
The
Shemsu Hor survived for decades under the disguise of puppet pharaohs and the
Amun Religious Sect. Pharoahs were willing to sell their souls for the
opportunity to serve as the ruler in Egypt. The Amun religious sect in ancient
Egypt was run by the Brotherhood of the Serpent, the Shemsu Hor. The word
shemsu was derived from the Akkadian word shamash
which meant serpent and Hor was derived
from the god Horus, the hawk-headed god of the rising and setting sun and the
son of Osiris and Isis. The Shemsu Hor was a powerful organization made up of
followers of the god Horus, a secret society in which the Amun church gave them
their cover. Their main goal was to line the pockets of the ruling class. Many
gods were worshipped by the commoners. Worshipping these gods required
sacrifices such as their hard earned money. In order to be provided protection
from the various gods, the commoners needed to purchase amulets representing
the gods and give money to the church. The commoners toiled in the fields by
day and prayed to their gods at night. They also paid taxes to the ruling
class.
The
commoners would stand outside of the church to collect the leftovers after each
meal the priests ate. They were usually destitute and hungry most of the time.
They gave up a lot to be protected by the gods. They were the ones who
purchased the amulets and also provided the funding by the taxes they were
charged to live on their meager pieces of land. They managed to farm the land
they lived and raise livestock. Sheep were used to provide them with clothing
and food.
At
least once a month the mother planet, Nibiru, was contacted to update their
superiors about the progress they were making concerning with the collection of
gold to repair the atmosphere of their planet and their superiors also want to
be updated on the progress the Anunnaki are making with the human DNA
experiment. They would take an egg from a human woman and the essence from an
Anunnaki male and implant the egg and the essence into an Anunnaki female in
hopes of creating more intelligent humans. A collection of gold and riches has
made it to Nibiru, their home planet recently. The inhabitants on Nibiru like
the shiny trinkets. Some of the members of the Shemsu Hor knew how to use the
pyramids on the Giza plateau to send messages to Nibiru.
Heget
and Nour, the chief engineers, entered the largest of the Giza pyramids. They
descended down the steep staircase to the bottom of the pyramid and turned on a
valve to release the water. The flow of the water flowed against the turbines
which created enough electricity to provide power to the radio control center.
The radio control center emitted intense laser beams that were sent high into
the heavens. The radio control center on Nibiru picked up the transmissions and
returned messages the same way.
Spaceships
traveled to and from Planet Earth to Nibiru to transport goods back and forth.
The Anunnaki provided Earth with a wide variety of vegetable seeds and domestic
animals. The large spaceships were only kept at the largest cities in Egypt.
Smaller aircrafts were kept at all locations.
“I just received a report from the
mother planet. Another war broke out between the east and west sanctions on our
planet. It’s getting pretty bloody. Many have lost their lives. It makes me
wish I was back on Nibiru,” said Rashid. Nibiru
is a waring planet and they happily introduced warfare to the people on Earth. Since
they can operate with mind control through their telepathic abilities, many humans
on Planet Earth have been coerced into participating in warfare.
The
inhabitants on Nibiru were jealous of the ones who got to live on Earth. They
wanted to own and control slaves. They
requested to have some hybrid humans delivered to their planet.
“I can’t believe how blood thirsty
some of the humans have become,” said Aharon.
“They can’t wait to get on the
battlefield,” replied Rashid.
“I want to teach the inhabitants of
Edu a lesson for stealing some of the supplies off one of our ships. I know
some of the humans will be more than happy to join me on my venture to Edu,”
said Gamal.
Soldiers
rode quietly into the sleepy town of Edu. The moon was a slit which created an
eerie blackness. Some of the men carried fire torches. Others carried orbs of
light. The horses were tied to the various posts located throughout the town.
Gamal ordered the men to stand at attention as he gave his orders.
“Men,
we are here tonight to teach the people of Edu that they cannot not steal from
us without facing serious consequences,” said Gamal. He noticed how sleepy his
men looked so he had to wake them up. He hit one of the men with his sword by
using a back handed swing. The man fell down which got the others’ attention.
Some of the men slapped their own faces to wake themselves up and others shook
their heads.
“Now
that I have your attention. We need to proceed with caution. I only want to set
an example, not conduct a massacre,” said Gamal.
Aharon
stood next to Gamal and pointed to the largest of the palaces in the foreground.
“There are guards posted at the entrance of the palace so we are going to use a
surprise tactic. I brought with me some hover crafts that will deliver a few of
us over the walls of the fortress. We will attack the guards from behind. They
will not expect us.”
The
human men stared at the contraptions that Aharon held in his hands with awe.
They did not know how their rulers created such magical things. They were often
fearful of the men who ruled their nation. Their size, magical powers and
temperament set them apart from the humans.
Aharon
clicked a switch on the hover craft and stood on the craft that was floating
above the ground by a couple of inches. Aharon used a handheld device to raise
the craft higher off the ground soon he was higher than the fortress wall. He
disappeared on the other side of the wall.
Quibilah
boarded the second hover craft and disappeared on the other side of the
fortress wall.
Akid,
Amonhotep’s son, was being trained as a scribe. He was sent to the back of the
soldiers where the women were stationed with food and medical supplies to
retrieve a flask filled with wine for Gamal. Akid was essentially at Gamal’s
beck and call. He was having trouble keeping his eyes opened but knew he must
follow orders or he may be executed or beaten like the others he has witnessed
for disobeying the rulers. He was angry with his father for sending him on this
mission.
“I
like how amazed the humans are when we introduce them to our gadgets from our
planet. Things we take for granted, they are simply impressed with,” said
Quibilah.
“It’s
easy to impress them,” replied Aharon.
They
used stun guns on the two guards by the front gate and they were given a heavy
dose of a sedative. The guards were hauled to a storage shed to sleep off the
drug. The goal of the inquest was to scare the inhabitants, not kill them. The
gate was opened and the soldiers entered. Their goal was to kidnap the children
of the rulers. Hold them hostage until they were reimbursed for the amulets
that were stolen from them. Gamal, Quibilah and Aharon snuck into the sleeping
quarters in the palace and gave the small children a sedative so they would not
scream and wake up their parents. They stole five children altogether of
various ages. The soldiers were ordered to wait for them in the courtyard,
standing at attention awaiting following orders.
A
loud horn was sounded in the courtyard that would have woke up the dead. The
horn was blasted again. The men from Edu rushed to the courtyard armed with
swords and were met with Gamal’s armed forces. One of the rulers of Edu,
Marchil, marched forward to see what was going on. The front line of Gamal’s
soldiers parted in the middle and five of the men walked to the front of the
line carrying the small children who belonged to the rulers of Edu. Marchil was
shocked to see two of his children sleeping in the arms of two of Gamal’s men.
Marchil
asked, “What are you doing with my children?”
“We
are here to be given back the amulets your men have stolen,” replied Gamal.
“I
don’t know of the theft,” replied Marchil.
One
of Marchil’s men, Akmid, approached Marchil. “I know of the theft.”
“Tell
me why I wasn’t informed of this travesty,” said Marchil.
Gamal
was surprised at what was transpiring. He thought the rulers were behind the
theft.
“Let
me explain. A package was damaged in transit to your capital. In fact, it
started on fire. We had to throw it in the water to put it out. We sent word
about the incident via carrier pigeons,” replied Akmid.
“Show
me where you threw the package,” demanded Gamal. Akmid led Aharon and Gamal to
the water’s edge on the other side of the fortress. Gamal dove in the water to
find the large package. He located the package and brought it up to the
surface. It did appear to be burned by fire. He opened the package and found
that some of the amulets were not damaged.
“Why
did the package start on fire?” asked Gamal.
“I think the package was packed too
tightly,” replied Samil. Samil was one of Edu’s scientists. “We had to dispose
of the package to protect the rest of the packages from catching on fire. I
thought you would appreciate our efforts to protect what was being shipped to
you,” said Akmid.
Gamal
was starting to feel sheepish for over reacting to what he thought was stolen
goods. He decided to save face and said, “We brought you a couple of gifts as a
token of our apreciation.” He waved at Kamilah to bring the gifts they had
prepared for their visit to Hermonthis. The rulers of Hermonthis supplied them
with human women they captured from
raids of small villages to use in their DNA experiments. The gifts were
golden statues of naked women and men. Marchil was pleased with the gifts and
instructed his men to haul the children back to their sleeping quarters. He did
not trust Gamal and thought he may pay him a visit in the future to teach him a
lesson. Marchil was also a part of the Shemsu Hor cult and an Anunnaki and did
not appreciate the way his fortress was invaded by the marauders from the
north.
Gamal
ordered his men to get on their camels and chariots to ride out of the city of
Edu. They were tired and wanted to rest, but it was time to leave. They have
definitely overstayed their welcome.
“We
retrieved the package that we thought was stolen,” reported Gamal during a
meeting with the Shemsu Hor.
“Why
did they steal the package?” asked Rashid.
“They
didn’t. It caught on fire and they threw it in the water to protect the other
packages,” replied Gamal.
“I
don’t trust Marchil. I thought he was up to something when we were there,” said
Aharon.
“What
do you think he is up to?” asked Gamal.
“I
read his mind and he plans on attacking us in the future,” replied Aharon.
“If
it gets too serious, we will bring out the big guns,” said Gamal.
“You
mean the missiles and bombs?” asked Aharon.
“Yes,
I have been wanting to use them,” said Gamal.
“Me,
too,” replied Aharon.
“It’s
time for me to report on what we have in our coffers,” said Abasi, the
treasurer.
“Go
ahead,” said Aharon.
“Our
coffers are swelling and our land holdings are growing,” said Abasi.
“Can
we visit the vaults and see for ourselves?” asked Gamal.
“Yes,
I will plan a visit in a couple of days,” replied Abasi.
“Some
of the priests are rebelling and would like to receive more pay for preaching
to the commoners about the gods,” said Gazil.
“Let’s
gather the complainers and torture them in front of the others to teach them a
lesson,” said Gamal.
“They
are part of our group. Do we really want to handle the matter in this manner?”
asked Aharon sternly.
“Let’s
invite them to our next meeting to discuss their concerns,” said Gamal,
begrudgingly. Gamal was getting frustrated with the ones who were serving as
priests. Their work was not as demanding and as dangerous as his work. However,
they kept demanding to be paid more. Pretty soon their pay was going to match
Gamal’s.
Amenhotep
was lounging lazily with a couple of concubines when his wife interrupted him
to discuss what was happening with Akid. “I believe Gamal is working Akid too
hard. He has him running to get things for him night and day. Have you seen our
son lately?” asked Sabra.
“I
don’t want to question what is going on with our son. I am suppose to follow
all orders and one of the orders was to turn over our son,” said Amenhotep
while his hand rested on one of the women’s hips. She sighed and rolled closer
to him.
Sabra
did not care about her husband and was more than happy to turn him over to
other women. She put her hands on her hips and glared at Amenhotep until he
felt compelled to respond to her.
“I
will see what I can do about Akid’s situation,” said Amenhotep. The love
between the two of them was lost years ago but he was still grateful for three
sons she gave him; Akid, Thutmoses, and Amenhotep IV.
That
evening Amenhotep grasped his chest and fainted. He hit his head of the marble
post of his bed. He died that evening of what was determined natural causes.
The ones who examined him thought it was either his heart or the bump on his
head that killed him.
Thutmoses
died two days later of unknown causes. Akid was too young so Amenhotep IV was
being considered to fill his father’s sandals. Amenhotep was not really
interested in being the pharaoh. He didn’t want the responsibility. With some
convincing, he finally conceded. The deaths of Thutmoses and Amenhotep III were
of no concern for the Brotherhood of the Serpent since they held complete
control of the political and religious power of the empire through the Amun
priesthood. They decided that Amenhotep IV was charismatic and intelligent and
would be readily accepted by the people of Egypt as the new ruler.
“Mother, I am the new ruler and as
the ruler I will promote Akid to a higher position,” said Amenhotep to appease
his mother. Akid was asked to join them in Amenhotep’s chambers. Akid voiced
his opinion about doing too much for Gamal. Gamal was asked to join their
meeting and Gamal agreed that perhaps Akid is worthy of different position.
Akid smiled widely at his mother and ran to her side.
Amenhotep took on an empire that was
at its peak in power and control and feared by the known world. He agreed to
follow orders of the Amun priesthood to continue to hold onto the position
Egypt had achieved. He did not know how to run an empire and told them he would
have to rely on them to guide him. He was crowned as the tenth pharaoh of the
eighteenth dynasty. Things went well for Amenhotep for the first few years. His
charisma won him accolades amongst the Egyptian people and he was one of the
first to rise to popularity while in his teens.
Living in the lap of luxury was not
enough for Amenhotep, he started examining what was occurring behind the scenes
of the Amun priesthood. He saw the poor people scrounging for food in waste
receptacles. He observed them working from the break of dawn until dusk. The
commoners were weary and hungry while the elite, the priests and rulers were
living off the fat of the land, enjoying the opulence of their status. The Amun
priesthood recently created two more gods with corresponding amulets. The
commoners were ordered to pay for the new amulets.
Amenhotep was married to the
illustrious and mysterious Nerfertiti. Her relatives began to convince
Amenhotep that he was the real ruler and not the priesthood. They reminded him
of the Golden Ages and the Amun priests were not using the sacred knowledge
from the age in the proper manner.
“You are meant to be the pharaoh,
the real ruler of Egypt. You are not meant to follow the orders of the
priesthood,” said Nerfertiti and her brother, Nanillaq. Amenhotep was also a member
of the Brotherhood of the Serpent but that did not stop him from questioning
their goals and hidden agendas. He knew about their goal to amass great
fortunes at the expense of the commoners.
Amenhotep entered Abasi’s chambers
and confronted the tax collectors. He knocked over the tables and threw the
coins out the window and onto the streets. The commoners were running around
collecting the coins.
“You must stop collecting taxes from
the poor people and start earning the money yourselves. We must stop taking
advantage of the poor people. They are starving and going without while we live
in luxury,” said Amenhotep.
Amenhotep stopped and rubbed his
chin. He had a grand idea.
“Nerfertiti I have a wonderful
idea,” said Amenhotep.
“What is it my love,” replied
Nerfertiti.
“I am going to erase all the gods
that are being worshipped. Egypt will only worship one god, Aten. I will be the
one the commoners need to come to. I will be the conduit, the link with the
only god.”
“You are going to worship the god of
my people. That is wonderful.”
“I am also going to change my name
to Akhenaten.”
“I know what that means. It means
Amun is satisfied,” said Nanillaq.
All the temples were closed that
were run by the Brotherhood of the Serpent. The Egyptians were ordered to only
worship the Sun god, Aten. Amenhotep was
the first to bring about a monotheistic religion.
The country had to sell more goods
to foreign countries to make up the difference that was made from the selling
of amulets. Things were going downhill fast because Amenhotep decided he was
too important to be bothered with the running of his empire and he turned
things over to those he thought he could trust to make sound decisions.
Amenhotep was found dead one
morning. The Brotherhood of the Serpent celebrated and it didn’t take long to
put another pharaoh in place that would follow their command. The multiple gods
were added to the religious practices and the commoners were coerced into
buying amulets and spells again to protect themselves from the evil forces
which was taken from their meager pay as laborers. They were back to being
charged taxes.
The
Shemsu Hor cult existed during the Golden ages in which the original divine
kings existed and remained in Egypt until the kings ascended back into the
stars. Ancient belief systems established that humans lived in 5,000 year
stages beginning with the Golden Age. Things were getting worse as time
expired. The Golden Age was a time of enlightenment when civilizations reached their
highest potential in the areas of architecture, spirituality and generosity.
Circumstances declined slightly during the Silver Age, deteriorate during the
Bronze Age and reached an all-time low during the Iron and Dark Age when there
is chaos, corruption, and ignorance. The Dark Ages continued into the 21st
century. The Shemsu Hor succeeded to implement their evil intentions throughout
many of the stages.
They
were an industrious group that created, maintained and rebuilt temples in
sacred locations. These areas were once heavily populated while the original
divine kings were in place. For thousands of years before the last major flood,
the Shemsu Hor preserved most of the ancient cities in Egypt that were steeped
in Egyptian mythology. They did such a thorough job that the very roots of their
alien history was displayed in plain sight while their very essence was
blanketed in mystery.
