Baba Oum Al-Malpa (OP) 12/08/2005 10:12 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I like Google Scholar. I did a search on Qinghai relics and in short time found a very kewl site with bunches of Nuo Masks. Nuo, a ritual performance for expelling evil, was a big deal in China around 3600 years ago.

The figures range in height from 4 to 9 inches (10 to 23 cm) and often held hoes in their arms. Their purpose was to act as a magical substitute for the deceased owner when the gods requested him to undertake menial tasks in the afterlife." |

THE BLACK FRIAR (OP) 12/08/2005 10:12 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | uh, jus´ did... 26th Dynasty known as the Saiite period: The 26th Dynasty Kings With the time of Ramses II and Hattusilis we enter the fully developed Iron Age. A letter written by Hattusilis II to Ramses II reads: "What concerns the pure iron, about which thou hast written to me, there is no pure iron in Kiswadna in my storehouse which is closed. The time was unfavorable to make iron. But I ordered in writing to prepare iron." [B. Meissner, Zeitschrift der Deutschen Morgenländischen Gesellschaft, Vol. LXXII (1918), p. 61; Jeremiah 15:12; Ezekiel 27:12] At the start of the 19th/26th dynasty, the Ethiopian source of iron was in the past. Now Greeks of Daphnae and later of Naucratis smelted iron ore to make ingots. From these ingots they made tools. During these times iron objects found in Egypt were mostly confined to Greek settlements. Poorer grade Egyptian iron was used to make chains, fences, buckles and such items. Ramses II said of himself "I am your wall of iron." [A.Erman & A.M.Blackman, `The Literature of the Ancient Egyptians´, (London, 1927), p. 268; Cf. A.Alt, Zeitschrift der Deutschen Morgenländischen Gesellschaft, LXXXVI (1933), p. 40; See also Jeremiah 1:18, Ezekiel 4:3] |
