Star Signs and the Labyrinth
by Patrick Geryl and Gino Ratinckx |
Patrick and Gino
have established the exact location of the famous labyrinth
built by the ancient Egyptians. This temple is probably
the largest man-made monument ever constructed and is
reputed to contain a wealth of information and astronomical
knowledge of the Old Egyptians. The authors prove their
points with extensive scientific and archeological research.
The excavation of this time-capsule will have enormous
archeological and historical implications...
In September 1996, I first read about the labyrinth
in a French translation of "The Book of the Dead".
The author, Albert Slosman,
had deciphered old manuscripts in which he had read
that the Egyptians had built an enormous building.
This is also where the biggest treasures of all times
would be.
The Greek Historiographer Herodotus
was amazed when he saw the huge labyrinth
in the fifth century before Christ. It was the administrative
and astronomical center of Egypt, had 2 floors, 3000
rooms and probably a diameter of more than a kilometer.
For centuries, scientists and adventurers have searched
for the labyrinth without
success. But with his knowledge of astronomy, Gino
discovered a correlation between the Milky
Way and the Nile. He
immediately saw that the temple of Dendera
had to correspond with the star Deneb
in the constellation Cygnus.
One of the turns in the Nile
in the area of Dendera even
corresponds exactly with the Milky
Way. He further postulated that the labyrinth
had to have a heavenly counterpart: no doubt these were
the Hyades because they formed
a labyrinth of stars.
Going from the pyramids that symbolize Orion,
the labyrinth then had to
be located in Hawara. To our
amazement the labyrinth had
been discovered on the location we had indicated! The
excavations had been done 160 years previous by a German
called Lepsius. He claimed
the labyrinth was like a collapsed
ruin.
This being too much of a coincidence, we decided to
leave for Egypt.
We took a GPS (Ground Positioning System) to exactly
determine the position of the temples and pyramids.

Dendera, Egypt, Tuesday 25 March 1997 |
At the entrance of the temple, we met Mohammed
Aldawy Barbary, archeologist and chief of security.
Mohammed confirmed to us that
Dendera had been associated
with the star Deneb, as we
had postulated.
Simultaneously with our first steps in the temple an
overwhelming feeling hit us. Everything radiated grandeur
and power. The day before we had visited the valley
of the kings, but it couldn't withstand the comparison
with Dendera.
Here, everything was more mysterious, more enigmatic,
more complex, and so on. As if a hidden power was behind
it, an unfathomable deep source of knowledge.
Gino and I were determined
to try and unravel it. We looked with astonishment at
the wonderful columns and the exquisite ceilings. Up
on the roof we took the important coordinates. Then
we admired the copy of the zodiacal table - the original
is in the Louvre in Paris.
It was here that Gino noticed
a first deviation in the concept. According to his measurements
the zodiac was directed to the north, with a deviation
of five degrees in eastern direction. Since it was a
copy it could be a coincidence. So he decided to measure
the south-north axis of the temple. To his astonishment
it also showed a deviation of five degrees in the eastern
direction.

Esna, Egypt, Wednesday 26 March 1997 |
The first assessment we made was that the temple's
level is below the Nile level.
The archeologist on duty explained that only on that
depth there was solid ground to build on. Because of
its low level it suffered from subsoil water intrusion
and that was bad for the conservation of the hieroglyphs.
Since the Egyptians were so keen tot keep everything
in as perfect a condition as possible, we concluded
there must have been a special reason to build the temple
right here - a reason much more important than the degree
of difficulty of building it there.
Soon enough, Gino found the
sign of Altair (in Aquila)
which again reinforced our theory. Furthermore we saw
columns similar to the Dendera
ones; the temple was built in the same era, hence the
similarities. Other elements of correspondence are the
zodiacal signs and the pattern of the ceilings. After
measuring it, the temple proved to be directed to the
north with a deviation of five degrees to the east.
Two such striking deviations could not be a coincidence!

Gizeh, Egypt, Monday 31 march 1997 |
We were walking towards the pyramids;
it was less than a kilometer from our hotel. I
had read an elaborate description in the book
"Fingerprints of the Gods". The previous
day I already had a first taste of it through
the view in our room: grand, mysterious, mystic
and an infinite amount of other descriptions one
could give to it as well.
"I bet the pyramids also have a deviation
of five degrees", I challenged Gino.
"I won't gamble on this one, cause I already
know the answer!".
A few minutes later we stood in front of the largest
building on earth. You had to see it to believe
it. It beats every description I ever read. Overwhelmed
by its grandeur, mysterious through its hidden
secrets, mystic because of its esoteric character,
and so on.
For minutes we let its impression work on us,
after that, we started working. With the GPS,
Gino measured the corners from the pyramid. When
walking from one corner to the other he also assessed
the direction of the pyramid.
The result no longer was a surprise to us: a deviation
of five degrees to the east. We noted the same
deviation for the two other pyramids.

Determination of the position |
The astronomic knowledge of the Egyptians was impressive,
and it was something Gino
could positively prove once we were back home.
With the aid of the positions of the pyramids and temples
he tried to calculate mathematically how they had done
it. After an intense search he came to the conclusion
they must have known the perimeter of the earth perfectly
and they must have been able to calculate the distance
to the stars! This is how he handled the problem: how
do I project the position of a star on earth?
Three-dimensional view of the relationship between the Giza pyramids with
the Orion constellation and the Hyades with the Labyrinth.

Solution |
- Freeze the heaven on a certain moment in time.
- Calculate the distance between the stars and record
them in specified units (for instance: royal ell,
etceteras).
- Take the center of the earth and project the star
on it.
- Take into account a certain scale while making the
projection, so everything can be remeasured accordingly.
- The projection is three-dimensional, which complicates
the work considerably. And on top of that you have
to take into account the angle between the stars.
In order to do this you have to know stereometry and
possess the necessary knowledge to project a point
on a three-dimensional landscape. Only the finest
mathematicians and astronomers can do this nowadays.
- Place the temple on the junction with the earth.
Our measurements prove they were able to accomplish
this and demonstrate clearly the Egyptians had incredibly
knowledge, and can match or even surpass today's science!

RESEARCH ON LOCATION
Hawara, Egypt, Wednesday 2 April 1997, 11 a.m. |
At high speed, the taxi driver hurried his car through
the desert. The sun was burning my eyes. At a distance
I could see the Hawara pyramid
appearing. Restlessly, I was moving back and forth.
Gino pointed at the building
and nodded - that was it.
We were rapidly nearing our journey's objective. We
arrived; the landscape was desolate. Not one tourist
could be seen. Three guides and a ticket salesman welcomed
us with open arms. Not one of them spoke English. Luckily
our driver could start the communication between us
all. The entrance was sixteen Egyptian pounds, quite
a lot for a pyramid made of clay. But we paid gladly.
Two guides accompanied us. Gino
and I put on our hats against the burning sun and we
followed the graveled path.
One of our guides made wild gestures. He pointed to
a bright white pillar, hardly visible above the sand.
The figures of two crocodiles were chiseled on it.
This clearly was a clue that this was the right site.
Indeed, Herodotos mentioned
that the labyrinth was located close to Crocodilopolis.

Crocodiles on column; Crocodilopolis!
Our guides kneeled down right in front of the entrance.
They made a drawing of a pyramid in the sand; they distinguished
three layers on it. Then they pointed to the lower layer
and to a stone made of red granite from Aswan.
The use of this type of very hard stone indicated that
the pyramid must have been important. You don't tool
this type of stone without good reason.
On top of this layer, the same type of stone was used,
as for the Gizeh pyramids.
And the last layer was made of clay stones, as we already
noticed.
I climbed an earth wall which was right next to the
pyramid. Some twenty meters away, about eight meters
deep, I saw the canal running as Herodotos
described it. I was staring into the distance and saw
nothing else but a green oasis in front of me. I could
easily imagine there used to be a lake with beaches.
While I was daydreaming I kept on looking around. Quite
soon I was filled with the feeling that we were in the
right place. During my research, I had had a similar
feeling several times. And every time it proved to be
right afterwards.
This time would not be different. My intuition was too
strong for that.
The labyrinth was right here! You can bet on it!
While we went around the pyramid, Gino
stopped to measure its position. He had calculated it
theoretically beforehand and to our satisfaction it
matched - only a few meters' difference the measured
values! Again a confirmation of what I suspected.
Hereafter, I give again the main evidences of why the
labyrinth must be located in this place:
- There is a canal in front of the pyramid, a branch
of the Bahr Joessoef canal. According to Herodotos
there used to be a canal connected to the lake which
was in front of the pyramid.
- Behind the canal is a dip: the oasis of the Fayum.
This is where the lake must have been.
- The position of the pyramid matches exactly the
star Aldebaran in the constellation Taurus. Such a
similarity points towards the importance of the position.
- Several tops of columns that are sticking above
the sand are telling us that there is more hidden
under the surface. These, probably stood on the roof
of the labyrinth.
- The temple was built in the early days of the age
of Taurus. When looking thoroughly at the star sign
Taurus, it is similar to the Pleiades and the Hyades.
The region which matches the Pleiades is located too
high, so that possibility is no longer open. This
leaves us with the Hyades.
And that's where the labyrinth is!
- The Hyades contain twelve bright and also a large
number of other stars.
The number twelve matches the zodiac. Astronomers
call the Hyades a labyrinth of stars.
A further indication is that the Hyades cover five
degrees of the sky, the same number as the deviation
measured of temples and pyramids in relation to the
north-south axis.
- Red Aswan granite was used for the fundament of
the pyramid. This points to the importance of the
place as well as to the fact that it protected the
clay stone construction from the water.
- Two chiseled crocodiles, are a clue for the Crocodilopolis,
which was not far from here.
- Lepsius did not dig very deep, not deep enough to
find the labyrinth.
For these reasons it is absolutely necessary to start
new excavations here.
Only this way the enigma of the labyrinth
can be solved.
