You can see the rows of vertical hashmarks next to it, that show horizontal streaks of erosion, indicating that the whole panel has serious horizontal cracking going on.

The reed on the left of the image is a number, hundreds or thousands i think (don't remember, and can't find my textbook this morning.) [//quote]
There's a bee in front of it. It's 'nsr bty' (King of upper and lower Egypt)
The egyptians, when they carved symbols, didn't do that. They didn't carve grooves or ridges down inside each symbol. Look at the better preserved symbols on the left, and you'll see what I'm saying. So it's safe to conclude that the "antigrav" images are either seriously eroded or defaced. Sometimes a pharaoh would deface the name of the previous guy, in order to steal his glory.
If they saw these objects in the sky, how come there's no glyph for sky on this panel? If I'm right about the number and the symbol for opening, it looks like this panel is counting something that belongs to the pharaoh whose name appears in the cartouche to the left of the symbols in question.

I read a few years ago and I just recently revisited the topic on Ancient Egypitian gods.
It is thought that these early gods might actually be from extraterrestrials creating beings which could be viewed as gods. These "gods" might have been experiments by aliens, ex. dog-human hybrids.
The reason I'm posting this is because we are having a debate very soon about this and i need as much information as you people can dig up.

indeed the only image in that link that raises my interest is the helicopter.. fairly unmistakable.. and off the top of my head i can't think of anything else that looks even remotely close to that, the other symbols could indeed be anything.. but as previously stated if you did see something that amazing why hide it up the top of some doorway? surely it would be more heavily documented.

The "helicopter" is actually the shape of a mummy lying down (part of the old title) that's been defaced.
And remember, the image you see has been HEAVILY Photoshopped. When you see the original, it looks a whole lot less like a helicopter.

I believe the Egyptians based their Pantheon of Gods on the Mesopotamian, Sumer Model. The Sumer city states of the fertile cresent all shared a common religion that included a Pantheon of 12 main gods, These gods all had an official name; a name epithet; a numerical rank; and (usually) a planetary association, that included all the planets, even the ones supposedly discovered in modern day, this tradition continued thiughout Greek and Roman culture, having come through Egypt.

Another history, comes to us from the oral tradition in the Dogon tribe of North Africa. The Dogon pocessed advanced knowlege of astronomy.
when visited in the 1930's the teachers of that tribe told the visiting cultural tnthropologists Siruis was a tri-star system.
The first Western scientists to visit and study the Dogon people were French anthropologists Drs Marcel Griaule and Germaine Dieterlen, who initially made contact with them in 1931, and continued to research them for the next three decades, culminating in a detailed study conducted between 1946-1950. During their work, these anthropologists documented the traditional mythology and sacred beliefs of the Dogon, which included an extraordinary body of ancient lore regarding Sirius the brilliant, far-distant Dog Star.
