dynasty 5 pyramids

Snefru's bloodline passes and we enter into dynasty 5 pyramids.


The image depicts the pyramids at Giza with three smaller pyramids in the forefront dedicated to Menkaure associates.

The fifth dynasty remains a part of the Old Kingdom of Egypt.

Dynasty 4 ends when Menkaura, Shepseskaf, and Djedefptah, in a short spurt of time (untime), turn the Egyptian zeitgeist or spirit of time. We are now in the years 2532 BC to 2500 BC. Political powers are moving quickly within Egypt. The unified kingdom seems to be destabilizing. The central white walled house of Memphis and it's god king is being questioned for it's authority on what is divine law and what isn't divine law. (note to self....why is DiVinCi so close to divine- answer to self..look up grand master of grand masters of the stonemasons... ).

Again we turn to our collective encyclopedia called the Internet wikipedia-how f#%$#^ avant garde is that - for a king list of dynasty 5 pyramids and get the following pyramid structures for dynasty 5 which is focused between Saqqare and Abusir...Abusir seems to be a new addition to the Egyptian lore. It lies north of Saqqara, therefore closer to the Mediterranean which already shows some Mesopotamian or even Greek influence. And already we are only at 2500 BC circa.

The list..

There is debate that the rule of the fifth dynasty comes from behind the white walls of Memphis, but argument as it that fifth dynasty kings ruled form Elephantine (from Manetho's notes). Elephantine is interesting in that it is located on the border of upper egypt and lower egypt.

dynasty 4 pyramids

The great pyramids of Giza are dynasty 4 pyramids. Where Amhotep began the stone pyramid construction in dynasty 3, Sneferu built on the existing pyramids and others added to the list of Egyptian pyramids in the fourth dynasty of Egypt.

Pharoah Snefru is the first king of dynasty four which begins around 2613 BC according to the Egyptian priest and historian Manetho. The fourth dynasty remains part of the Old Kingdom .

As with all things in historical perspective there is confusion in accuracy as to who came when and ahead of who as is the case with Sneferu and Huni. It seems however there is no question that Sneferu led Egypt into the fourth dynasty. The Huni pyramid at Meidum is either a product of the Huni reign or the Sneferu reign. The bent pyramid and the red pyramid at Dashur are somehow lost in this same confusion but it seems that Snefru played a major part in the development of these early limestone pyramids.

From Snefru comes Khufu and Khnum most likely mothered by Hetepheres I. However Sneferu was a king god and a ladies man and had several other children with several others consorts or mistresses. Amongst them are Netjerape and Nefermaat.

The bloodline of the fourth dynasty starts out with Sneferu and links into Khufru, then his son Khafra and then Menkaura. In building dynasties an overlord builds relations with neighbours and subdues the ideologies that oppose his empirical reign. A good king also has the ability to move his own people. In the fourth dynasty it seems that these kings able to move the mass workers without having to use tyrannical rule. Again a point debated. Others claim most of the work was carried out by a slave workforce. Most likely it was a balance of both where prisoners provided hard labor while freemasons led the chain.

Regardless from this bloodline of Egyptian god kings or Pharoah we get the Giza dynasty 4 pyramids.

The kings of the fourth dynasty are

1. Sneferu
2. Khufu
3. Djedefra
4. Khafra
5. Menkaura
6. Shepseskaf
7. Djedefptah

To the Greeks Khufu is Cheops, Khafra is Chephren, Menkaura is Mycerinus.

The location of dynasty 4 pyramids at Giza shows a offers a great deal of knowledge about the move away from the Ogdoad creation myth religious cults centered at Hermopolis and a move towards the acceptance of the Heliopolis Ennead or nine gods of creation cults. Giza is at the end of the Heliopolis arrow in the image of the Nile above.

dynasty 3 pyramids

Egypt dynasty 3 pyramids are an advancement on the conventional mastaba chambers used in previous funerary rituals of the royal blood line. Today's archeologists have yet to discover evidence of a pyramid in Egypt that is older than Pharoah Djoser's reign. Djoser was 3rd king of the 3rd dynasty and Amhotep was his architect. It was Amhotep who built the first Egyptian pyramid. Djoser reigned as Pharoah of Egypt from 2630 to 2611 BC and the funerary complex or step pyramid was erected at Saqqara, just outside of the white walled holy compound of Memphis.

The pyramidal monumental structure stands as the first Egyption pyramid to be built of stone. The Djoser dynasty 3 pyramid began as a mastaba inside a mile long complex and was later expanded in at least two stages with the end result turning into a six step stone pyramid structure.

Pharoah Sneferu comes along in egypt dynasty 4 and builds up on three other pyramids that were founded as dynasty 3 pyramids.

One was situated six kms south of Djoser's Saqqara. Likely the pyramid was being built in honor of Pharoah Huni. This old kingdom king was the last Pharoah of the third dynasty. The Huni pyramid is sometimes referred to as the "onion" pyramid due the peeled look the exposed upper steps give it.

Further south from Saqqara and Meidum in Dashur another pyramid was being built in dynasty 3. Again, the Egyptian's were struggling with the physics and this pyramid slanted giving it the name of the "bent" pyramid.

The persisted and began construction on another pyramid complex again in Dashur. This one is sometimes referred to as the third pyramid of Snefru or the "red" pyramid due mainly to the reddish tint it took on when the limestone used in the core oxidized when exposed to sunlight.

So dynasty 3 pyramids include

1. Dsojer's pyramid at Saqqara
2. Huni's pyramid at Meidum
3. The bent pyramid at Dashur
4. The red Sneferu pyramid at Dashur

Meanwhile...the wikipedia dynasty 3 pyramids list goes as follows ( historical hindsight is not 20/20)

1. Pyramid of Dsojer
2. Buried pyramid of Sekhemkhet
3. Layered pyramid of Khaba at Zawiyet el-Aryan

Confused yet.....post dating history and digging up bones is about as valid as predicting the future and manifesting new realities.
