[QUOTE]Originally posted by ausar: [QB] No,I don't find a connection between imaculate conception in Kmt and cross cultures as a mere coinsedence. In fact,the imaculate conception is shown right on the walls of Ipet Resyut[Luxor] that corresponds with the Christain tradition. I pointed out in a previous post that Ausar was like Jesus that he granted eternal life if you believed in him. This occured around the time of the Middle Kingdom. My point was that the circumcision ritual in Kmt was different from in Semetic soceities. Acording to Herodotus they may have adapted the pratice,but they preformed it on small children at birth and the Egyptians praticed it as a coming of age ritual. Many pharoahs from the 18th dyansty are not circumcised,but most priestly class in Kmt traditionall were circumcised as a way of rital purity. You could not be uncircumcised and become a priest,so it was required of all priestly class Egyptians. Here's a scene from a tomb showing the circumcision rite: [IMG]http://users.skynet.be/ancient-egypt/glossary/people/ankhmahor.gif[/IMG] [This message has been edited by ausar (edited 09 June 2004).] [This message has been edited by ausar (edited 09 June 2004).] [/QB][/QUOTE]
