The Sacred Bees: Priestesses of the Ancient World
Before the great flood, the symbol of the bee was revered across ancient cultures. From Egypt to the Middle East, from Phrygia to Greece, priestesses and oracles were frequently referred to as 'bees'. This ancient motif signifies the shared spiritual practices and interconnectedness of early societies.
The Luminous Atlantis and the World Before the Flood
Atlantis, as chronicled in Plato's "Timaeus" and "Critias", stood as a hub of global diplomacy and trade, stretching its tentacles from the Aethiopian Sea to the edges of the then-known world.
Genesis 6:11-13 paints a grim image of this time: "Now the earth was corrupt in God’s sight and was full of violence... I am surely going to destroy both them and the earth."
The Sun Kings of Phrygia: A Resurgence from the Flood's Aftermath
Following the flood's devastation, tales of resurgence and rebirth emerged. In Phrygia, the legacy of Nannacus, analogous to the biblical Noah, persisted through his descendants, the sun kings, most famously represented by King Midas.
Genesis 9:20 tells of Noah’s resilience: "Noah, a man of the soil, proceeded to plant a vineyard."
King Memnon: A Crucial Link between Aethiopia and Troy
After the flood but before and during the Trojan War, King Memnon's tale provides an essential bridge. As a ruler with Aethiopian lineage and connections to Hephaestus, Memnon intricately linked histories from Africa to India.
Alexander the Great: Re-establishing Ancient Ties
Alexander’s conquests were not just military expeditions but endeavors to reconnect ancient civilizations. At Heliopolis, where the revered Ba'al temple once stood, Alexander established a temple dedicated to Zeus. This act, beyond religious significance, represented a merging of pre-flood and post-flood cultures, a nod to a time when nations communicated seamlessly.
Alexander's vast empire and numerous expeditions showcased his desire to restore old connections. Whether it was his march through Egypt, where he declared himself "Son of Amun" or his ventures into India, reminiscent of old trade routes from the times of Atlantis, Alexander was essentially attempting to reunite a fragmented world.
Moreover, Alexander's engagement with the Gordian Knot, a relic associated with King Midas, was symbolic of his intent to interweave ancient cultures. By slicing it, he might have been illustrating the destruction of barriers between nations, further emphasizing his mission to reconnect the world.
Mountain Mysteries: Greeks, Macedonians, and Echo's Tale
Mountains, both in reality and metaphorically, have been at the core of many ancient tales. While Greeks revere Mount Olympus as their pantheon's residence, Macedonian mountain roots paint a different narrative. It is in these rugged terrains and highlands that the echoes of ancient civilizations whisper, and Macedonians, particularly under Alexander, played a pivotal role in these tales' resurrection.
Enoch's descent of the Watchers on Mount Hermon, as described in the Book of Enoch chapters 6-20, further underscores the mystique of mountains.
In Conclusion
The intertwined stories of ancient civilizations, from the bee-revered priestesses to the might of Alexander, portray a vivid picture of a world that once was. Through scriptures like Genesis and the Book of Enoch, we see these connections more clearly and appreciate the efforts of figures like Alexander who sought to sew the ancient world's fragmented tapestry back together.
