Htp Neferkare,

Thanks for the 'heads up' on Bernal and other author - some others to add to wish list. I concede your point on the 'unsuspecting' viewer, and as most people only have knowledge of the Gregorian calendar as a marker of time and along with the lilting voice of Jones, I see your point. I have a few books,(which I had to dig out ) one being Sacred Science by R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz and Temple of the Cosmos by Jeremy Naydler, both discuss the Sothic Calendar (each quite lengthy) and processional cycle and the Neter whose influence colors all other principles. Aquarius - "a sign represented on Dendera zodiac by two vases from which water pour; this symbol is placed in the hands of the Nile God, Hapi" (p176, Sacred Science). There is also the Mayan calendar to consider and the mayans were heavily symbolic. But yes, I wholeheartedly agree, it is time for Afrikans to "flesh" it out for ourselves and lets hope that someone, somewhere be doing just that. blksmile2_2:
