You're no savant. Youz a true genus I believe.
PS You quoted my quote box mess up. You might want to correct it.
That's what happens to easter eggs when they're subjected to nuclear waste I guess
It sounds like you are hinting to your working in a nuclear power plant near and or around the storage pool for storing spent fuel.
If so that's a dang GOOD JOB! 100k+

Not a math problem, per se, but perhaps a mnemonic. Star and flag for posting something about Ancient Egypt that is actually true.
Yes mnemonic is probably the most accurate term, I agree.
The people who created the structures which many of these icons are depicted upon were mathematical geniuses. More so than most modern people are today, by a long shot.
Do you remember the interesting information about the discovery that the ancient Egyptians knew about and used the meter measurement?
You all gotta watch this documentary, it was very hard hitting.
Mind blowing.

WOW, I just watched that video thanks for posting; that Jean-Pierre Adams guy was a closed minded and ignorant/arrogant idiot in my opinion. I find it disturbing and even suspicious how the so called 'experts' can have such closed minds and call everything a co-incidence.
The thought of missing something important for me makes that attitude completely unacceptable and is totally counter-productive for the progression of humankind's collective understanding of our origins.
Great post OP, this has certainly opened my eye's (pun not intended).

"You humans" ?
As if you are not human , right?
Pretend as if you "know" all of this stuff, and now pretending you are not human?
Well, Thanks for that, as I now know not to read any further into your posts. lol
Later ̶h̶u̶m̶a̶n̶
er, whatever you pretend to be.

I am of the opinion when it comes to math... if you don't use, it you lose it.
The reason that I have grave doubts about that , at least for me personally (it may not apply for others), is because I have never forgotten anything I have ever truly learned.
For example, Pi was just an obscure mathematical concept which made no real world sense, until my science teacher showed me exactly how Pi was devised.
Basically we got a string and drew a circle, then measured the radius, and then checked how many times the radius would go around the circumference, and divided it in half. Thus, Pi. (Ratio of circumference to diameter).
I never use Pi, nor do I ever really think about it much until this thread.
However I have never forgotten how to calculate Pi by hand without any calculator, and that was almost 20 years ago.
I never had to use it, I just had to actually learn it.
And I will probably remember this until I die as well, granted I don't suffer major brain damage issues.

I'm not really GETTING how this eye of Horus is used with Fractions.
Sure, the Egyptians MIGHT have used a "code" to hide important numbers. It seemed that they were trying to create a secret writing system in the first place, as only the Temple wise men could read.
But HOW are we getting a "1/2 + 1/16th of a Hecate of Wheat" from one of these pictures? I've only ever seen the Eye of Horus as one drawing -- I don't recall situations where you'd only have the eyebrow and a pupil and rest of the "hidden fractions" nowhere to be seen.

I hear ya! I've been dealing with one of those on another thread and they take all the fun out of everything making you not even WANT to discuss it
Glad you're here on this one, I've enjoyed it very much
