1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:18,640
So Stephen Maylor, the term pharaoh is used
for the high ruler of ancient Egypt.

2
00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:22,359
Can you tell us where the word pharaoh comes
from?

3
00:00:22,359 --> 00:00:23,359
Yes.

4
00:00:23,359 --> 00:00:28,240
And why it is also not a correct term for a
leader of the ancient Egyptian culture?

5
00:00:28,239 --> 00:00:31,759
This is one of the most difficult things that
is misunderstood.

6
00:00:31,759 --> 00:00:34,920
I say everyone including myself has used the
term incorrectly.

7
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,320
Again, pharaoh, as we know the modern word,
is a Greek derivation.

8
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:42,920
As most of the terms that came out of the
ancient civilization, phareo, actually Hebrew

9
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:43,920
word per-o.

10
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:47,280
And it referred to the male leader of the
house, as you suggested.

11
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:51,879
But what we understand is that this is
basically what we call Greco-Roman mytholo...

12
00:00:51,879 --> 00:00:52,879
is Egyptology.

13
00:00:52,879 --> 00:00:56,039
They never asked the indigenous people what
their tradition was.

14
00:00:56,039 --> 00:01:02,039
And as Abdel Hakim taught in what we now call
Kematology, the civilization was matriarchal.

15
00:01:02,039 --> 00:01:04,560
Dissent went from mother to daughter, never
father to son.

16
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:09,760
And so the term pharaoh actually comes from
the ancient commission term per-a, the high

17
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:11,680
house, which was the woman's house.

18
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,000
Again, descent going from mother to daughter.

19
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:18,159
So in essence, we say there never were any
male pharaohs.

20
00:01:18,159 --> 00:01:20,079
All the term has been used wrong.

21
00:01:20,079 --> 00:01:22,920
The woman was the per-a, the high house.

22
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:27,359
And by who she chose to be her consort, he
would be considered the male head of the

23
00:01:27,359 --> 00:01:28,359
house.

24
00:01:28,359 --> 00:01:29,840
And that's who's depicted on the walls.

25
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,219
That's whose titles we see in cartouches.

26
00:01:32,219 --> 00:01:36,280
But never was it referred to in the ancient
civilization as pharaoh.

27
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,460
He was the male head of the house, the Horus.

28
00:01:38,460 --> 00:01:39,840
She was the per-a.

29
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:41,159
So we've all used the term wrong.

30
00:01:41,159 --> 00:01:45,560
And it continues to be wrong today when
people say pharaoh, Ramses, pharaoh,...

31
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:47,120
There was no such thing.

32
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:48,599
There were no male pharaohs.

33
00:01:49,599 --> 00:01:57,479
So Stephen, if we have misunderstood the idea
that ancient Egyptian culture was matriarchal

34
00:01:57,479 --> 00:02:04,079
and not patriarchal, when did the concept of
patriarchy, when was it introduced into

35
00:02:04,079 --> 00:02:11,400
the history books and into our understanding
or misunderstanding of ancient Egypt?

36
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:15,479
I think it goes back thousands of years
before academia represents.

37
00:02:15,519 --> 00:02:18,439
I did a lot of work in this, actually did a
second master's degree in the evolution

38
00:02:18,439 --> 00:02:20,639
of matriarchies and matriarchal cultures.

39
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:24,280
And that's what led me to understand that
Egypt was a matriarchy, even long before

40
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:25,280
I met Hakim.

41
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,839
And what really attracted me to his teachings
is he started talking matriarchy from the

42
00:02:28,839 --> 00:02:29,839
beginning.

43
00:02:29,839 --> 00:02:34,319
But as he explains it, as we understand it,
it is wrong to believe that what patriarchy

44
00:02:34,319 --> 00:02:40,599
became was the father or the husband
replacing the mother or the wife.

45
00:02:40,599 --> 00:02:42,079
That is not how it came.

46
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:48,800
And we trace it back to what we see
matriarchal influences in actually...

47
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:52,240
going back to the Upper Paleolithic 14,000
years ago.

48
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:58,960
But it is recognized that true matriarchies
come in around 8,000 BCE, which corresponds

49
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:03,320
to the astrological age of cancer, a
matriarchal sign.

50
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:07,240
We see in the archaeological record what are
called Venus figurines, all these cultures

51
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,640
worshipping goddesses or mother figure.

52
00:03:10,640 --> 00:03:11,640
Matriarchy comes in.

53
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:16,319
So how it slides into patriarchy, again, goes
with the cycles.

54
00:03:16,319 --> 00:03:17,599
We talk about the five cycles.

55
00:03:17,599 --> 00:03:21,079
We talk about coming to a cycle of Amun,
which is separation.

56
00:03:21,079 --> 00:03:26,479
At the same time, you have the astrological
ages of Taurus and then Aries.

57
00:03:26,479 --> 00:03:31,799
It is in the time of Aries, around 2,000 BCE,
where all the cultures seem to be tending

58
00:03:31,799 --> 00:03:34,239
then to patriarchal influences.

59
00:03:34,239 --> 00:03:38,879
What happens here in Egypt is mainly the
Greeks who come in and bring patriarchal...

60
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:44,639
But what happens is, patriarchy is not the
father or husband replacing the mother.

61
00:03:44,639 --> 00:03:48,479
What it is, is the son, S-O-N, replacing the
mother.

62
00:03:48,479 --> 00:03:51,000
As Hakim would teach, there's no one to
blame.

63
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:55,159
For a long time in the women's movement in
America in the 70s and around the world,

64
00:03:55,159 --> 00:04:00,400
there was this blaming of men by women, of
men as subjugated women in patriarchy.

65
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:04,680
But what Hakim said is actually, you see in
the archaeological record or in the...

66
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:09,439
record or in the traditions, mother begins to
push son forward and tell him, you're

67
00:04:09,439 --> 00:04:11,640
my good boy, you're my strong boy.

68
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:16,280
So what happens as patriarchy is that the son
supplants the mother.

69
00:04:16,280 --> 00:04:22,079
So all our deities in our modern patriarchal
religions, like Judaism, like Christianity,

70
00:04:22,079 --> 00:04:26,399
like Islam, are sons, S-O-N, who replace the
mothers.

71
00:04:26,399 --> 00:04:33,399
In Egypt, of course, Horus replaces Isis and
Hathor, replaces them as the deciding...

72
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,639
And that's how it becomes patriarchal.

73
00:04:36,639 --> 00:04:42,599
And a clear influence on that was in the town
square, the ancient city of Babylon,

74
00:04:42,599 --> 00:04:46,819
there was a statue of who had then become the
state guard, Marduk, actually taking

75
00:04:46,819 --> 00:04:50,519
a sword and splitting his mother, Tiamat in
two.

76
00:04:50,519 --> 00:04:52,639
There's two interpretations of the statue.

77
00:04:52,639 --> 00:04:57,839
One actually symbolically showing the victory
of patriarchy of the son over the mother,

78
00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:02,679
and there's also a theory that actually
represents an exploding planet, the planet...

79
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:06,639
Mars and Jupiter, that we know as the Van
Allen Belt that there was a planet there.

80
00:05:06,639 --> 00:05:08,759
Tom Van Flandern has supported that theory.

81
00:05:08,759 --> 00:05:09,800
Both are true.

82
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:14,280
But actually what patriarchy was, was the son
replanting the mother.

83
00:05:14,280 --> 00:05:17,800
And now it's time now that consciousness has
come about, that the son no longer will be

84
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:22,399
ruling, mother right is coming back in, the
goddess is being brought in, the so-called

85
00:05:22,399 --> 00:05:25,720
feminine netters, and there'll be more of a
balance in the future when we're coming

86
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:29,120
to the new age, the awakening of masculine
and feminine, male and female.

87
00:05:29,439 --> 00:05:31,680
That has to go one side to balance up the
other side.

88
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:36,959
We swung so far to patriarchy, that has to
swing now to bring back the goddess energy,

89
00:05:36,959 --> 00:05:40,199
the feminine energy, back to bring it back to
where it needs to be.

90
00:05:40,199 --> 00:05:42,560
And as Hakim said, there's no one to blame.

91
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:44,139
It's just the natural cycle.

92
00:05:44,139 --> 00:05:48,040
We fell out of consciousness when the only
thing that mattered to the ancient...

93
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:53,199
was the great mother, Nut, who the Sphinx
represents, Tefnut, the spit of Nut.

94
00:05:53,199 --> 00:05:57,879
The only image to them was the great mother,
the creator of all, there is the creator

95
00:05:57,879 --> 00:05:59,480
of all that's uncreated.

96
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:03,800
Then different aspects of what we call the
netters come in and religion comes to be.

97
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:08,079
But when patriarchy takes over matriarchy,
it's the son supplanting the mother.

98
00:06:08,079 --> 00:06:11,959
And that's why the influence here, the Greeks
who were only interested in fathers and their

99
00:06:11,959 --> 00:06:15,120
sons, because that's their culture, so that's
what they saw.

100
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:18,199
They saw the people that were plastered on
the walls in what are called cartouches.

101
00:06:18,199 --> 00:06:21,959
They thought these were titles of kings and
their sons, kings and their sons.

102
00:06:21,959 --> 00:06:26,639
So they create 33 dynasties of all of these
different kings, and it had nothing to do

103
00:06:26,639 --> 00:06:27,600
with the ancient culture.

104
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:31,640
We talk about dynastic Egypt, but it's all
Greco-Roman mythology.

105
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:35,320
It was all just descent from the mother's
house and the male.

106
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,960
Usually a brother, there was no incest in his
culture.

107
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:43,640
A sister would choose a brother to be her
consort to keep the family line together.

108
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:47,439
And so basically what you see on the walls
are brothers who have been ruling with their

109
00:06:47,439 --> 00:06:48,439
sisters.

110
00:06:48,439 --> 00:06:51,720
They are the Pyrrha, and they've chosen him
to be the Horus.

111
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:53,600
And that's what's depicted on the walls, not
a pharaoh.
