ok this is weird… http://egyptology.blogspot.com/2010/06/photo-for-today-deity-henut-mestjet.html a lion-headed goddess with a sun disc and uraeus snake and holding an ankh but the tablet doesn’t name her Sekhmet
10:07 PM
clearly the same deity, but a totally unknown-elsewhere title
10:08 PM
http://henadology.wordpress.com/theology/netjeru/mestjet/ “She bears the epithet ‘Eye of Re‘”
10:08 PM

James Reinsch10:10 PM

Only when it’s impossible to achieve our goal via cinematographic techniques. Ultimately, special effects serve storytelling, not the other way round.”

This, friends, is what separates a great director (Pang Brothers) from a hack (George Lucas, Michael Bay, anyone who ever hires Brendan Fraser).

Check out my sweet favicon.

Anyone with a passion for Egypt/Kemet or historical research, please feel free to sign in and write up the history of a festival or two. It’s a wiki, it’s there for communal knowledge.

I just spent a couple hours watching videos on youtube. Nerimon has just so much stuff that makes me laugh and want to be his friend.

Of course, now I’m thinking that perhaps I might have something to say on the internet. I know! Impossible, right? Oh wait, there’s this blog. You know, the one I’m writing right now. Or that I wrote.. and you’re reading right now. Because you’re in the future.
