I am hoping someone has the answers as they have been bugging me and the more I find out the more I don't understand.
I was taught that the Egyptian pyramids were built by jewish slave labor turns out that archeology shows that they were built by by the Egyptians themselves part of their tax system. the other thing I am finding out is that they had no currency other than barter for grain. Ramses had grainery complex large enough to feed all of egypt for over a year ,, now that is a lot of grain.. and the nile is a tremendous agricultural area very fertile. Now the only coins known to be minted were created by cleaopatra and were of a helenistic design and were never in circulation. Now the Pharaohs are well known for the love of Gold in their burials and lots of it to. Now to my knowledge there are no major sources of Gold within the Egyptian borders which is not a problem as they had plenty of grain to trade for all the gold they wanted.. Nomadic tribes by their nature are not large 30 to 50 people at best. not hundreds of thousands as taught. one of the questions is what happened to the jews and just where were they? maybe still nomadic traders?? Isreal has no major gold mines to my knowledge. and apparently slavery was not a big thing either, although i am sure the was some trade in it.. just like today it exist world wide,, but is not major.. The other question comes from the burial rites and the shear quantity of gold that was involved disappearing by tomb robbers, that would be like stealing all the gold out of the us depository at fort knox which is over 4,000 tonnes of gold andit is small comparired to new york's vault which is over 5,000 tonnes. what happened to all this gold it apparently does not show up in the ancient Egyptian culture My questions come to this 1: Where were all the jews in egypt in ancient times what did they actually do? 2: What happened to all the burial gold that was stolen from the tombs and we are not talking about a few ounces either more like it the areas of tons. I hope some one can help me with these answers to these questions Allan -- ( ) I_D Allan If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
