Can you spare a minute to help this campaign? Petition for the Return of the Rosetta Stone and the Dendera Zodiac to Egypt

Return #stolenartefacts to Egypt. #RosettaStone #DenderaZodiac #GEM

On the #DenderaZodiac, the Cardinal goddess Isis, sometimes known as the ‘Sow of Heliopolis’ holds up the 30 degrees segment #Taurus. Note pig in the middle #Decan. #EgyptianAstrology time of #CleopatraVII.

I love this sky map, the artist could almost have been inspired by the 1st Century planisphere of #DenderaTemple! #DenderaZodiac look-alike?

The #DenderaZodiac depicts a #NewMoonPisces.

A proper look at the #DenderaZodiac shows the #TwoHeadedMan planet (the dark figure in the drawing) is in #Aquarius i.e. #Mercury in his #EgyptianTerms, the #Louvre has got it wrong alas!

The #LouvreMuseum identifies the #TwoHeadedMan planet on the #DenderaZodiac as “Venus in Pisces”. Wrong, wrong - see for yourself on my next post…

Lovely planet #Venus getting higher in the evening South-Western sky for the next few months. No way did the #AncientEgyptians ever consider the #TwoHeadedMan planet to be Venus. See #DenderaZodiac
