The Pharaoh and the Gods: Triumph of Egypt, Second Edition: Djoser continues his rise to power. Gods take on lives of their own. Isis and Osiris reign supreme in Egypt. The echo of the old Olympian gods segues into local variations throughout Canaan, Phoenicia, and the original city of Urfa. Living legends take on the mantels of 'Living Gods.' Local needs and attitudes shape a pantheon of gods from peaceful and loving to sadistic and bloodthirsty. Against this backdrop, Horus continues his search for the nature of death while Set continues his jealous, relentless attacks on Horus. Civilization continues its rambling, haphazard progress toward either enlightenment or not. Sex, violence, misogyny, human sacrifices, and our lesser selves create a world where the weak are sheep for wolves in gods clothing. All the while, Prince Djoser and brooding, conflicted Horus try to create a civilization worthy of existing. Love is hard. Peace, harmony, and Ma'at harder. This is the fifth in the six book series, The Beginning of Civilization: Mythologies Told True. For 200,000 years hunters hunted, gatherers gathered, they sometimes mated. Then something happened. They became civilized. This is that story in six books deconstructed from Biblical, Greek, Egyptian, Phoenician myth and traditions. To understand why we are the way we are, we must understand how we began. This is my offering. Let those wiser tell it truer.
