Title: this is fun, but Schwaller and West are nuts
Product review: Schwaller de Lubicz was a genius, but a creative genius, not a scientific one.I don't dispute that there was an advanced civilization millenia before Egypt. The case for that is all circumstantial, but it is an overwhelming circumstantial case, and if historians ever get a clue the existence of so-called "Atlantis" will be taken for granted.Nor do I dispute the basic truth of Schwaller's esoteric worldview.What I dispute is the idea that the temple at Luxor has anything to do with what Schwaller says it does. The miracle of Egypt is that it is basically a blank slate. It can be interpreted any way one likes. The interpretations tell us much about the interpreter, but none of us will ever really understand Egypt.
