Egyptian Dawn: The Origins of Civilization Revisited

A New Look at the Ancient Past

In his groundbreaking book, Egyptian Dawn, Robert Temple presents a radical new theory about the origins of civilization. He argues that the ancient Egyptians were not the first civilization, but rather the inheritors of a much older and more advanced culture that flourished in the Nile Valley thousands of years earlier.

Evidence of an Advanced Pre-Dynastic Civilization

Temple bases his theory on a wealth of evidence, including:

• The presence of megalithic structures in Egypt, such as the Great Pyramids and the Sphinx, which could not have been built with the technology available to the ancient Egyptians.
• The discovery of advanced astronomical knowledge in ancient Egyptian texts, which suggests that the Egyptians had access to sophisticated mathematical and scientific knowledge long before it was thought possible.
• The existence of a complex system of writing in Egypt prior to the development of hieroglyphics, which indicates that the Egyptians were literate long before the traditional dating of the invention of writing.

The Lost Civilization of Atlantis

Temple believes that the evidence points to the existence of a lost civilization that flourished in the Nile Valley around 12,000 years ago. He identifies this civilization with the legendary Atlantis, which was said to have been a highly advanced society that was destroyed by a natural disaster.

The Implications of Temple's Theory

Temple's theory has profound implications for our understanding of the origins of civilization. It suggests that the ancient Egyptians were not the pioneers of civilization, but rather the inheritors of a much older and more advanced culture. This new perspective challenges traditional views of history and opens up new possibilities for understanding the development of human civilization.
