You can get a translation of the edfu text for example "the mythical origin of the Egyptian Temple" by E.A.E. Reymond.
One of the most common depictions of Osiris is him with the other neteru arriving in Egypt in his solar boat.
I have read the translation of the edfu text and it talks about a battle in the land of conflict (hence the name), the destruction of the temple of the hawk, and subsequently arriving in Egypt with the other neteru.
Herodotus wrote that Sais is where the grave of Osiris is which is in north Egypt at the mouth of the Nile delta.
The oldest architecture is in the north not the south and definitely not in kush
The Greeks, such as Herodotus, Plato and Diodorus Siculus, identified her with Athena and hence postulated a primordial link to Athens. Diodorus recounts that Athena built Sais before the deluge that supposedly destroyed Athens and Atlantis. While all Greek cities were destroyed during that cataclysm, the Egyptian cities including Sais survived.

"These tableaux show not only the earliest datable image of a king in one of the canonical crowns of pharaonic Egypt, but also the presence of the Following of Horus in the border area between Egypt and Nubia at the dawn of the First Dynasty," Darnell said. "The carvings may therefore be the earliest record of tax collection we have from Egypt, and the first expression of royal economic control over Egypt and most probably also Nubia," the researchers concluded.
The Yavanas are the Greeks, considered in the Vedas to be particularly clever peoples:

No wonder the Greeks beat Atlantis. After all, Atlantis didn't have an air force.
Isn't that what you're saying?
No its not what I'm saying, what i'm saying is that they must have had equal footing technologically with Atlantis so was able to stop them in their tracks.
According to the latter, the war between the Titans and Olympians raged on for ten years in a sort of stalemate, until Zeus "no longer restrained his soul, but straightway his mind was filled with fury and he showed forth all his might." His bolts "flew near at hand" with thunder and with lightning, while in his hands he was "rolling a holy flame." It crashed as it "burned the life-giving earth," and the "infinite wood cried aloud with fire." The oceans "seethed and boiled" as volcanoes (Cottus, Briareus and Gyes) hurled rocks by the hundreds. Once defeated, the warlike Titans are bound and imprisoned forever in Tartarus, a mythological prison far beneath the "waves of the restless ocean" in the far West. The hint is given that "divine weapons"—given to Zeus by Kyklopes and Hekatoncheires—turned the tide against the Titans.

Yeah, explain vitrified rock forts and pottery? People have tried to recreate it with wood fires, so far everyone has failed to replicate it.

I dont want to get into this because its not what this thread is about but if you read the article the image shows
"the 'Following of Horus', a biennial tax-collection tour made by the royal court to stamp its authority on the country"
Its showing the pharaoh traveling south down the Nile to collect taxes in Nubia not the pharaoh traveling north bringing Egyptian civilization to lower Egypt as your trying to suggest.

They concluded it would take all the trees in Scotland to vitrify a whole fort...think you can count that as a fail not a success.
The most famous experiment, widely trumpeted in virtually all writings about the vitrified forts, was performed in 1934 and repeated in 1937 by Wallace Thorneycroft and Vere Gordon Childe who built a fire against an experimental stone wall, built to the observed specifications. As described in the 1966-67 edition of The Proceedings of the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland:
The experimental wall was 6 ft. wide and 6 ft. high, with horizontal timbers interlaced with stone slabs. After ignition through brushwood fires around the wall face, the wall began to burn and after three hours it collapsed. The core of basalt rubble became red hot, probably reaching 800 to 1200°C, and after excavation the bottom part of the rubble was found to be vitrified, with rock droplets and casts of timber preserved. The experiment proved that a timber-laced wall of this character could become vitrified through fire, but the explanation of the reasons for such widespread treatment of these Iron Age forts remains uncertain.
Keep in mind also that Thorneycroft and Childe were archaeologists with minimal stone melting skills, while the men who vitrified the forts two and a half millennia before them were expert professionals whose knowledge was based on centuries of experience.

They [the Laputians] have likewise discovered two lesser stars, or satellites, which revolve about Mars, whereof the innermost is distant from the center of the primary planet exactly three of its diameters, and the outermost five; the former revolves in the space of ten hours, and the latter in twenty-one and a half; so that the squares of their periodical times are very near the same proportion with the cubes of their distance from the center of Mars, which evidently shows them to be governed by the same law of gravitation that influences the other heavenly bodies.-Gulliver’s Travels- Jonathan Swift – 1726

Firstly it is not my claim that irradiated skeleton have been found in India or that parts of sites have been cornered off due to radiation levels. Secondly vitrified brick/rock has been found in India also. Thirdly why do you suppose anyone would actually want to vitrify a rock or brick building? Fourthly what your calling "partial success" Im calling a complete failure so no I don't agree with you that there has been partial success, vitrify a small stone building or even a section of a wall and then I will call it a success.

Also I have seen graves like that and when they examined them they found them to be highly radioactive,

As for what has melted rock got to do with a nuclear blast, think you should be able to figure that out yourself.
