Egypt: Zahi Hawass -… I don't want to hear about it at all!

4 07. 06. 2023
6th international conference of exopolitics, history and spirituality

This Wednesday, April 22.04.2015, XNUMX, the first open public discussion of Zahi Hawasse and Graham Hancock was to take place in Cairo (Giza, Egypt) at the Mena House Hotel, which would represent two different views on the ancient history of Ancient Egypt. Zahi Hawass had a presentation as a representative of the mainstream conception of Egyptology, and Graham Hancock was to come up with new - alternative findings in the field of the study of Egyptian history (and therefore the whole world).

The idea, no doubt praiseworthy, was taken up by Dr. Zahi Hawass's dramatic gradient.

Graham Hancock writes that both were supposed to have a presentation and he was the first. He was preparing a lecture before the beginning and was browsing the slides on the computer when he came to the slides, which illuminated the theory of the connection between the Orion belt (so - called. Orion correlation theory) and the position of the pyramid on the Giza plateau of his friend and colleague Robert Bauval. Zahi Hawass started to get angry. Video translation follows:

Zahi Hawass: This guy (Robert Bauval) is lump and I do not want him (and his work) speak. And I do not want his name to be mentioned.

Graham Hancock: In academic circles, Zahi…

ZH: He is not an academic. He's nothing!

GH: In academia, we do not use ad hominem arguments. We do not discuss this person (author's theory). We discuss the essence.

ZH: The substance of the case has already been discussed and resolved (closed).

GH: No it is not…

Zahi Hawass

Zahi Hawass

ZH: This is how the debate has been closed. It was closed to everyone in Chicago.

GH: Then it means you don't want to hear anything I wanted to say.

ZH: Exactly. I do not want to hear anything!

GH: It's your shame.

ZH: Please do not tell me this!

GH: But it is true. We…

ZH: Do not say such words !!! It's your shame, not mine !!!

GH: We did not talk about it.

ZH: Do not talk to me, please. Go away from me !!!

GH: ... but really ...

ZH: It's your shame. Why are you telling me I'm ashamed? Why?!

GH: Because we should be able to openly discuss ...

ZH: I do not want. This man (he means Robert Bauval) did bad things. I do not want to hear his name.

GH: This human…

ZH: I will call the acquaintances and arrange that this man should not go to this country once and for all! Because he's a villain ... - ... I do not care ...

GH: We really should be able to discuss ...

ZH: Please, I don't want to talk to you. Please leave me alone.

GH: OK

Graham Hancock and Santha Faiia

Santha Faiia and Graham Hancock

Santha Faiia (wife of GH): Basically, you say you don't want to have a discussion or have fun when… (it's not heard, but I suppose it says something in the sense: Will Graham talk about the Robert Bauval theory?)

ZH: Why someone talks about someone else's theory. Why? Why does (GH) want to talk about the theory that was closed? Why do you want to open this theory again?

GH: The theory is not closed.

ZH: It is closed ...

GH: No it is not.

ZH: ... all. And I do not understand why you want to talk about him. It's ridiculous. Why are you talking about him? You still have to present your theory and not the idea of ​​someone else.

GH: This is not always closed, Zahi.

ZH: Okay, I closed it and I'm presenting it here.

GH: I present my own theory.

ZH: Well, I do not want to take part (of this topic). I'm ready to present my presentation, but I do not want to participate. (Leaving the room)

GH: And all this before anything was said. One image (it shows the alignment of the stars of the Orion belt and the position of the pyramid at Giza) and Mr. Hawass leaves the room. Shame.

SF: What do you want to do with it?

GH: I'm here and I want to discuss it. I'm convinced that this is a huge disgrace for Egyptology.

SF: He does not want to talk about Bauval.

GH: Okay, but I'm sorry. Bauval is the central point of alternative argumentation (alternative view).

SF: Aha.

GH: Can not lead a discussion without (link to) Bauvala.

Orion Theory Robert Bauval

All this performance began because of the one image Graham had in his presentation: The Orion Belt Theory

 

Unfortunately, I did not find the course of the presentation itself on Youtube. However, in the end, there was an announced discussion during which one of the listeners asked Zahi Hawass a question, which again brought ZH to a boil:

Host: Thank you for your presentation. As one of the leading experts on Egypt, I want to ask you… What is your opinion, or whether you could comment on the situation, what impact they have (if any) on the history of Egypt excavations in Göbekli Tepe (Turkey) ...

ZH: What?

H: Göbekli Tepe - What was the impact of the excavation GT on your understanding of Egyptian history.

ZH: What excavations where?

H: Göbekli Tepe.

ZH: In Turkey?

H: Yes

ZH: Are you talking about something that happened in Turkey? Your question is about something in Egypt or Turkey?

H: It's going about your opinion on new excavations that are currently underway in Turkey in relation to Egyptian history.

ZH: If they found anything in Turkey, is it Egyptian work?

H: No. Just as one of the leading experts on Egyptian history, I ask, What is the impact of these amazing excavations in Turkey?

ZH: I do not know about these excavations.

H: Okay, maybe Graham could say something about that, and would you commend it?

ZH: Sure, yes, it can.

GH: If Dr. Hawass listened to my speech, saw the pictures and heard my presentation. Göbekli Tepe was discovered by the German Archaeological Institute, represented by Klaus Schmidt. Göbekli Tepe is clearly dated to 9600 before our year. Locations contains a large number of gigantic megalithic pylons. More than 70% of them are still buried underground and is identified ground radar. It raises questions about the origins of civilizations, because we have not found others yet gigantic megalithic buildings (officially) dated to the past 11600. And because Turkey is not too far from here Egypt, and because at least I think there are still questions age Sphinxes… I think it is relevant to consider the recent discoveries of gigantic megalithic structures in Turkey, which date back 11600 years. And whether we could reopen questions about age Sphinx.

ZH: I don't think that was said exactly. It has nothing to do with anything. In my opinion, we know the age of the Sphinx. What was found in Turkey, I do not think and I do not even know if it is true or not. (ZH will turn to the moderator, which is Professor Miroslav Bárta, director of the Czech Institute of Egyptology.) Can you comment?

MB: Turkey - more precisely eastern Turkey. When you look at the traditional dating of ancient Egypt and compare it to Göbekli Tepe, which is dated to the late period between the 7th and 10th centuries BC, the two civilized worlds are separate. I would not call it Göbekli Tepe a civilization, because civilization is characterized by many characteristics such as advanced culture, religion, etc. What we know about Göbekli Tepe is that these people lived 7000 years before Egyptian civilization began… (People from Göbekli Tepe) They created these circular, say, temples or sacred places, where the monoliths are three to four meters tall, so ...

During the speech of Professor Bárta, dr. Havass is arguing with someone at the table and suddenly falls. Either English is a problem for him (which I don't think) or the person in question advised him on what he should react to.

Zahi Hawass was the one who, after he was removed from his place, referred to the French Pyramid's radar surveys of the French, and it was certainly his (his team) who carried out exploratory drillings in the Sphinx area based on radar discoveries Japanese team of Egyptologists In 1987.
ZH: It doesn't matter if the radar showed something, because I don't believe in the radar. I used radar in all my work and never found anything with it. So I'm worried about what the radar showed.

GH: Well, I'm afraid the radar is working, and you (ZH) are discrediting the work of the German Archaeological Institute and the work of Professor Klaus Schmidt, who unfortunately died a few months ago. A very precise and well-done work, a hard-working man who published his discoveries, which were not questioned. Göbekli Tepe is 11600 years old. It is a huge megalithic site. It is not too far from Egypt. In my opinion, there is a relevant connection - at the very least, this should lead us to some inconsistencies regarding the deposits in Egypt.

MB: If I take the position as an independent person on these two respected gentlemen, then, in my opinion, Göbekli Tepe and Sphing, or the Old Kingdom of Egypt, can not be compared. These two places they are thousands of years apart in history. It's a different style of architecture and a different kind of culture - in my opinion. And certainly we cannot consider this matter at this time, because most of us, most of you, are unfamiliar with this matter. But be sure to check out sometime in the evening on google. You will see if there are any similar characters, similar characteristics between these two places. I leave it open to you for trial.

GH: Dr.'s argument Mark Lehner, about the Sphinx he spoke many years ago, was that the Sphinx could not be 12000 years old because there was no other place at the time, another megalithic place anywhere in the world that was similarly 12000 years old. When we have a great discovery initiated by the respected archeological institute in Turkey - a large megalithic site that is 11600 years old… I believe this goes against the argument about the absence of context for the Sphinx, which is also a megalithic monument. By the way, I do not have the argument of Dr. Hawasse on the dating of the pyramids. (Apparently a reference to RB dating.) This is also a megalithic place here in Giza that interests me.

 

Robert Bauval wrote on Facebook yesterday: The controversy began in 1993, when John A. West and Robert Schoch initiated the debate: "The Age of the Sphinx." Hawass attacked them furiously in the press and called on other Egyptologists to join him in exposing (discrediting?) Their work. One of Hawasse's underbelly tactics was personal attacks when he called them Jews, Zionists, charlatans, thieves, etc. In the Arab world words Jew a Zionist are considered to be the worst personal offense.

When I published my book a year later Mystery of Orion (February 1994), followed by several major television documentaries, Hawass focused his personal attacks on me as well - he began cursing at me in the same way. The thing got worse after Graham Hancok and I published a book together in 1996 Genesis Ranger / Sphinx Message.

In May, 1997 even called Hawass a press conference where local and international media that directed against us (West, Hancock and Bauval) were represented.

During the years that followed, Hawass continued his personal attacks. He mostly attacked me because I was exposed to negotiations with various American organizations. It all escalated in 2013 when Hawass attacked me again, saying that I was "a Jew who hired Germans to steal Pharaoh Khufu's cartouche in the Great Pyramid." (See article German egyptologists examined the age of the Cheops in the Great Pyramid)

That, of course, was clear nonsense and a complete lie. Not only did I have nothing in common, but the cartouche was not stolen at all. (In fact, the cartouche was damaged between 2004 and 2006, at a time when Hawass himself was personally in charge of the pyramids.) Unfortunately, these bizarre, insane, and irresponsible accusations from Hawass were taken seriously by Egyptian courts and six innocent Egyptians were imprisoned.

The last crazy outburst of emotion at the conference in Mena House on April 22.04.2015, XNUMX revealed the real face of this man. In fact, I feel sorry for him because he is clearly losing control of himself and needs professional help. Such conduct in public is completely unacceptable. I don't see a single sensible person who could take someone like that seriously.

I enclose a link to a video of a television documentary that was shot in 1996. It shows the origin of all the conflict. Enjoy (S: Undoubtedly a document, not a conflict. :))

[Hr]

Robert Bauval, in one interview, said that Zahi Hawass had a great interest in excavations under the Great Sphinx. He was much interested in Edgar Cayce's report, which predicted the discovery of Atlantis records. This was also the intention of Zahi Hawass to conduct reconnaissance (and radar) reconnaissance probes under Sphing.

As long as Zahi Hawass was at the helm of official Egyptian history, he pleaded with anyone who might begin to poke fun at established paradigms. However, in connection with the political changes, Hawass was shut down and his influence is long gone. It can also be said that the time when his arguments had some weight long gone.
