Since the Accounting: A Chronicle of the Roman Khanate

Chapter 384 Egyptian Civilization Is All Forged by Ptolemy
When Guo Kang knew about this organization, he also thought they were weird.In other words, it has the unique "mash-and-match" style of the Purple Horde.

Of course, some of these views, even in the eyes of a less devout believer like him, are outrageous enough—for example, some more radical priests believe that the whole world is actually a dialect of Chinese.It's just that they were too far away and separated for too long, which led to the seemingly completely irrelevant situation now.

But even so, there are still people who follow this line of thought to verify ancient phonetics.

By searching the rhyme books of Seris in ancient times, they really found traces: for example, the word "father", according to the records in the literature, it is speculated that "Ba" should be pronounced in ancient Chinese.And compared with this pronunciation, it is not difficult to find that this is the case in many other places.

For example, in the church, the word father that is often used is called "papa", whether it is Greek or Latin, or even the various languages ​​​​of the Germanic barbarians.Until now, priests still use this name, and even the bishop of Rome uses it as his own title.Presumably, this word should have originated from Chinese, and a slight consonant change occurred in the process of spreading, forming the current appearance.

According to the priests, this is a good proof.But on the other hand, it also shows the importance of words.

Why do words like "father" and "mother" not change?Because people are born of father and mother.The concept is so basic that it hasn't changed significantly over the years.But for other words, there is no guarantee.

If there is no text as an anchor, once there is a change, let alone communication, you will not even be able to understand the current scriptures.

This is not alarmist talk.

On the eastern coast of the Mediterranean, people sometimes find ancient sites where people wrote in strange letters with strokes like wooden wedges.Some people speculate that this is the text of the Persian Empire that was destroyed by Alexander in the records of the ancient Greeks.

Now, however, no one recognizes these things at all, not even the Persians themselves.Because of the Persian language in the Middle Ages, a newer set of letters was changed, and the previous characters were directly forgotten...

The Persians can be regarded as a civilization with a relatively long heritage and a relatively deep accumulation, and the situation of other people is not as good as them.It's definitely not going to work like this.

Therefore, they believe that no matter what the classics are, it is best to use Chinese characters as the original for unified records.When it needs to be used, according to different dialects, convenient phonetic symbols in popular style are used to explain it to believers.

Guo Kang actually felt that their theory did not stand up to scrutiny.

For example, because the pronunciation of the parents is the same in different languages, it is far-fetched to say that they are all derived from Chinese.This observation cannot prove that "Greek and Germanic languages ​​all come from ancient Chinese", at most it can only explain that "Greek, Germanic, and Chinese have a common source".The rest are all arguments.

The popularization of their theories is not so much logical as it is in line with everyone's needs.

After all, these days, if the Germanic language is proved to be a descendant of the Chinese language through this "mother's birth" theory, the Han people feel that enlightenment spreads all over the world, and the Germanic people feel that they have climbed a high branch. Although it is far-fetched, everyone is very happy;
But if we argue that Chinese is a descendant of Germanic languages, Han people will think it is a curse, and Germanic people will only think that someone deliberately satirized him.Everyone doesn't like it, so naturally it won't become popular...

At first, Guo Kang thought it was ironic.But after thinking about it, it's actually pretty good.

Although the theory does not conform to the traditional teachings, and the understanding of linguistics is completely different from the results of modern research, not only the purpose is good, but when it is implemented, it has indeed done a lot of good things.An organization like this is already hard to come by, what more can you ask for...

The biggest problem is that although this theory is widely circulated and a series of expositions have been completed, there are still two dark clouds that are small but cannot be ignored above the theoretical building they built.

One of them was created by Guo Kang himself.

On a whim, he suggested to his adoptive father that some old Greek nobles who had nothing to do should be sent to Crete for archaeology.As a result, the mother-in-law heard it and found it very interesting.With the promotion of her and grandfather, this matter actually became a reality.

As a result, over the years, the old nobles really dug up some things one after another.On some ancient pottery tablets, there are ancient letters that are completely unknown, and even the most learned scholars do not know what they mean.

At present, they can only estimate that this is an era earlier than the classical period, and people left records.It's just that now, the Greeks have long since given up this writing method, so no one still recognizes it.

This project has continued since then, and even in the past few years, they have continued to find new evidence.

On the island of Crete, according to Guo Kang's memory, pictographs can really be found, and then verify how pictographs developed into alphabetic characters.

If this set of hieroglyphs different from those in the Central Plains is discovered, the theory of "Ceres, the origin of all things" is estimated to be punctured.

And compared to this, there is a dark cloud that is closer, which is in Egypt.

There are many ancient ruins in Egypt.The ancient kings built a large number of tombs, temples, and monuments, many of which are still on the surface, and you can see them at a glance when you travel around.

The ancient Greeks called these ancient kings "Pharaohs", which means huge palaces.It is probably the same as people in the Central Plains calling His Majesty, instead of addressing themselves directly, they use buildings instead to show respect.

Ancient Greece and ancient Egypt had close contacts and were greatly influenced by their civilization, so they even learned this name.

In the remains of the Pharaoh era, there are many things that are obviously hieroglyphics.This kind of trace is too obvious, and the number is also very large, it must not be ignored.

The priests of the "Tower of Babel" have also noticed this.

Their theory holds that "only Chinese characters are regular characters, and other so-called characters are phonetic code tables", but if ancient Egypt had a separate set of characters, then this theory is not easy to explain.

Therefore, they can only say that there may be similar things in Egypt, which proves that writing is very ancient, and it may have something to do with Chinese characters.However, the Egyptians later fell and gave up the real writing, and because of this, they never recovered, and never prospered on their own.This tells people how much influence the real product of civilization has.

Of course, this explanation is equally far-fetched, because no one can prove that Egypt is also a derivative of the Central Plains.So, some priests are getting more extreme.

Some people try to verify the chronology of Egypt, proving that it is far closer than the prehistoric dynasty of Seris; some people simply deny it, saying that many of the current ruins are forged by later generations.

——For example, Ptolemy, the Egyptian successor, was a man of culture and cunning.In order to gain the support of the local people, he often imitated the pharaohs and even built temples of Egyptian gods.In order to elevate his status, he also declared himself an Egyptian god.These evidences that prove how ancient Egyptian civilization is, it seems that Ptolemy and others forged for the sake of boasting.

　As a special note, the teachings and denominations of the Roman Church in the book, if it is not specifically explained in the text "what happened in history", are basically made up by me.

　　Many of them refer to real parts, such as Taoism, Gnosticism, Sufi mysticism, and even the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, but they are too much mixed up, and it is hard to say which part is purely referenced...Anyway, just treat it as a fiction.

　　Someone came to ask today, so I think I should talk about it specifically.Don't be fooled by others...

　　In addition, I will look back and see if I can compile the "Brother Tian Salvation Scripture".In fact, I think this is the most interesting place to write a book.

　　Thank you for your support
