At home with the kitties

It was so nice to have a 3 day weekend! I did not do a heck of a lot but I did get to relax. I did some cleaning and a couple loads of laundry today but mostly I relaxed with the kitties.

In fact, I did not go out at all except for tonight when I went to see my Mom at the nursing home. It was great to catch up on my reading,

It's funny, whenever I am in the living room I sit on the sofa. So Molly found it extremely strange that I was sitting in the chair by the window. She had to walk behind and look over my shoulder.

Perhaps placing this lamp by the chair was not the best idea I ever had. How long will it take her to pull all the trim off the lamp? She certainly seems intrigued.

 

Hope everyone had a great 3 day weekend. Looking forward to the next one in February.

Pyramids of Egypt

      In the history of pyramid building construction has been used for a long time . Nation of the ancient Egyptians and the Maya are known to use the building as a pyramid tombs of the kings in past, as well as places of worship ( worship ) besides there are allegations of a dump ( store) food since the time when the preparations for the famine or the treasury . Various analyzes of the use of pyramid construction . Some call it the heritage buildings on the grounds there is a UFO -like building pyramids found on Mars that are the same degree of latitude degrees latitude on Earth , others say the civilizations of Atlantis and some of them said that the construction of the pyramid is used for the reason that the ancient civilization , humans find it difficult to make a dome construction . Therefore, it is used to facilitate the construction of the pyramids . Construction of the new dome itself is used in Roman times with the construction of the concrete arch in the building and the Eastern Roman. Since the 6th century BC , Egypt was the royal escape Poshi , who lost his position after being founded more than 2,000 years , receiving power from the outside , namely the Greek, Roman , Islamic kingdom and the power of other nations . During the days of a large number of famous works of Pharaoh destroyed , literacy and religious beliefs of the Egyptians themselves were gradually replaced by other cultures , so culture of ancient Egypt to be receding and destroyed , generations later also lost a large number of relics that can decipher clues left by the predecessors . The year 450 BC , after a Greek historian around and arrived in Egypt , append word : Cheops , ( Khufu Greek alphabet ) , supposedly said , destroyed after 50 years . To some extent the Greek historians use the phrase " supposedly said " , meaning that the truth needs to be proven again . However , since it is the opinion of the Greek historians quote generations instead becomes important later as evidence that the pyramids were founded in the 4th dynasty.

During this time , historians assume that the pyramid was the tomb of the king . Thus , so talk about the pyramid , which is pictured in the mind unnoticed is jewelery and sparkling items . And , in the year 820 AD , when the governor -general of Islamic Cairo Caliph Al - Ma'mun is led forces , first dig a secret passageway and into the pyramid , and when the patient does not get into the room , the view looks only made him very disappointed . Not only did none of the things that are usually buried with the corpse , like pearls , and carvings , glassware and even a piece of debris was not there , that there is only an empty stone coffin lid that does not exist . While the wall was clean empty fields only , nor is there the slightest carved posts.

Conclusion historians to achievement first entered this pyramid is " experiencing robbery objects in the tomb " . However , the results of the investigation clearly shows , the possibility of grave robbers entered the pyramid through the other path is very small. Under ordinary conditions , not grave robbers also may be able to steal without leaving a trace , and more is no longer possible to delete the entire inscription Pharaoh depicted on the wall . Compared with the other tombs are generally filled with jewels and treasures abound , a giant pyramid built to commemorate the grandeur of Pharaoh king became very different.

In addition , the note " Inventory Stela " stored in the Cairo museum , never mentioned that the pyramid has been around since the beginning before Khufu continue throne . However , because the record on the basis of hard stone tablet challenge the traditional view , there is a problem between the results of research experts and the way of writing the book , then strongly criticized the value of research . Actually, within the limitations of the historical record that can be obtained , if for a particular view and then override some of the evidence of history , without realizing it has hindered us objectively in view of the position of the actual history.
