INTRODUCTION
This report is a preliminary research effort in preparation for my book, now in
progress. An expedition was undertaken in September of 1997 by myself and Robert M.
Vawter, sponsored by the Kinnaman Foundation. The primary source for the information
presented here is the teachings of Dr. Abdel Hakim Awyan, one of the great exponents of
the indigenous traditions of Ancient Khemit, today called Egypt. These efforts represent
the first presentations of the new field of Khemitology, as opposed to the outdated,
inadequate treatments presented in the academic discipline of Egyptology. The soon to be
published book, Egypt and the Awakening: Insights of an Egyptian Adept, co-authored by Dr.
Abdel Hakim Awyan and Karena Bryan, by Bear & Co., will be the first full exposition
of these new ancient teachings.
WHAT IS BU WIZZER?
Bu Wizzer is translated as the land of Wizzer in the ancient Khemitic language, Wizzer
being the word for the Greek Osiris, so Bu Wizzer was the land of Osiris. Who Osiris was
would be the subject of another essay, beyond the scope of this paper. Whether Osiris was
just a fictional, mythological character or a real man, whether from Atlantis or
extraterrestrial origins, will be elaborated upon at a future date.
It is enough for this preliminary report to state that Osiris was a much venerated
figure in Dynastic Khemit (Egypt) from approximately 3100 B.C. all the way to 100-200 A.D.
in Roman times. Osiris was considered to have brought the ancient people from barbarism to
civilization, teaching law, agriculture, science, engineering and religion. Bu Wizzer
would be considered the area that Osiris settled first, the oldest sites in all of Egypt.
We believe the sites that make up Bu Wizzer to be, at their lowest archaeological levels,
over 10,000 years old and the basis for our current research efforts.
From north to south, the sites of Bu Wizzer are today known as Abu Ruwash, Giza, Zawyet
el Aryan, Abu Sir and Abu Gurob, Sakkara and Dahshur. All of these sites have or have had
pyramids or major structures associated with them and have been identified as being sites
from the Old Kingdom period of Ancient Dynastic Khemit (ca. 2700-2100 B.C.). We believe
the structures today found in various states of ruin there to be originally from the Bu
Wizzer civilization over 10,000 B.C. in age and for much different functions and purposes
as those stated in academic Egyptology.
DAHSHUR
Since the Nile river is all its permutations and forms flowed and flows from south to
north (thus Upper Egypt being the south and Lower Egypt being the north), we start with
the southern border of Bu Wizzer, known today as Dahshur. At Dahshur there are the remains
of two pyramids, known as the Red Pyramid and the Bent Pyramid, and the ruins of various
other structures. According to standard Egyptology, Dahshur and its pyramids were erected
in the Third Dynasty of the Old Kingdom (ca 2600 B.C.) for the king Sneferu. But our
indigenous teacher, Dr. Abdel Hakim, states that Sneferu means "double harmony"
and may be the title of the site, not an individual name! As there are no inscriptions
found in either pyramid nor any evidences of any burials, their designation to a
particular king or period is purely speculative.
We found evidences of ancient lakebeds and water canals all, apparently, originating
from the western desert many miles away. As the present Nile river is about eight to ten
miles east of the site, and the water was brought in from the west, the site of Dahshur
must be older than the 2600 B.C. date presently given. Geologists debate on the exact
dating, but it is recognized that there was an ancient Nile river, called the Ur Nile or
the Protonile in various archaic time periods. It is believed by some that over 10,000
years ago there was an active, huge river in the western desert of Egypt, towards present
day Libya, and as meteorological conditions changed dramatically around 13,000 years ago,
rainfall ceased and the western Nile dried up, leaving the desert conditions present
today.
We found archaeological as well as geological evidences that Dashur had abundant water
flowing through aqueducts and into lakes coming from the west, therefore from a water
source absent for about 7-10,000 years. Since the term Sneferu means "double
harmony," the pyramids or Per-Neters (the correct Khemitian word for pyramid) may
have been constructed for the use of sound energy to harmonize the water flowing about
thousands of years before 2600 B.C. and not for the burial of any king! Why would a king
have two pyramids built for his burial? This question has never been adequately addressed
by Egyptologists! Samples taken from under the top layers of sand at Dahshur by our team
on our expedition to the area in September 1997 showed clear indications of silt,
limestone, basalt, bone and pottery fragments--enough to support a working hypothesis of
civilization there prior to the recognized Old Kingdom period.
SAKKARA
A few miles to the north of Dahshur is the famous site of Sakkara, named for the deity
of the dead in Dynastic Khemit, Sokar. In academic Egyptology, Sakkara is recognized as
being a necropolis; the place where kings and officials were buried in the Old Kingdom
period. In fact, many burials were at Sakkara throughout all of Dynastic Khemitian
history. Sakkara is where the famous Step- Pyramid is located, identified with a king
named Djoser (Zoser). However, our investigations indicated the Step-Pyramid was built in
at least three, if not four, distinct stages, perhaps thousands of years apart. We also
believe the courtyard near the Step-Pyramid, supposedly constructed by the great genius
Imhotep for king Djoser to be of distinct Mesopotamian architectural style and also
perhaps from a different time period than that of the pyramid. But the most important
findings were of many tunnels under the limestone bedrock--these tunnels being in much
older archaeological layers than the above ground structures. These tunnels appeared to us
as also being water channels and originating from the west, not from the present Nile
River, which is about eight miles to the east of the site. We found inscriptions at
Sakkara of Asgat-Nefer, referring to the "Harmony of Water," a key phrase we
have seen on almost all Bu Wizzer sites and what we believe to be the original purposes of
the tunnels and Per-Neter structures for the flow and utilization of water!
Dr. Abdel Hakim also showed me ruins of a temple south of Sakkara of an official named
"Maya" of the Eighteenth Dynasty of the New Kingdom period of Dynastic Khemit
(ca 1300 B.C.). Hakim adamantly stated that "Maya" was a title, not a name.
Interestingly, Maya is one of the names used today in Egypt for water. Hakim suggests
"Maya" may have been a Mayan from pre-Columbian Central America-- perhaps
"Maya" meant "from across the water" to the Ancient Khemitians. We did
find some markings on a ceiling in his chapel that were definitely not typically Khemitian
markings. Hunbatz Men, Mayan Daykeeper, has commented on a photograph of these ceiling
glyphs, stating that they appear to be of Mayan origin in that he recognizes the style and
form.
ABU SIR AND ABU GUROB
A few miles north of Sakkara are two sites very close to each other, Abu Sir and Abu
Gurob. Abu Sir means "Father of Sardines" in Arabic, but this name seems to make
no sense as there has been no water present there for many thousands of years. Dr. Abdel
Hakim suggests the name is a distortion of Bu Wizzer and Abu Sir may have been the oldest
site or capital of Bu Wizzer. Present at Abu Sir are remnants of several pyramids and
structures, all dated to the Fifth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom (ca 2500 B.C.) according to
academic Egyptology. In particular, we investigated a pyramid and associated structures
believed to be constructed by a king named Sahura (ca 2470 B.C.). There are many
structures with the remains of granite and basalt columns with this king's name incised on
them to lend support to the accepted theories. However, our investigation revealed
remnants of aqueducts, water channels and an ancient lake near this pyramid, obviously
built long before the current desert conditions. The water flow was again from west to
east and could not be from the current Nile River which is about eight miles east of the
site. Dr. Abdel Hakim pointed out basalt pavement stones apparently used to form a dock
for boats to sail right up to the pyramid which was not used for anyone's burial but for
charging the water by application of sound and vibratory actions of the igneous rock
(granite, basalt, diorite, limestone and alabaster) used in construction. Again,
preliminary analysis of samples taken under the top layers of desert sand showed
indications of silt, limestone and pottery chips indicating water had flowed in the area
long before the Old Kingdom period.
A mile or so northwest of Abu Sir is the ruins of Abu Gurob. Abu Gurob means
"Father of Crows Nests" in Arabic and has reason for this name. All that remains
of a very elaborate site are a courtyard complex and a large mound upon which an obelisk
once stood. It is on top of the mound that one has a great view of the whole area from
Sakkara to Giza, thus the reason for the "crows nest" appellation. But the site
is in virtual ruins with no remnant of the obelisk or much of the other structures
remaining. There is hardly any real evidence linking this site to the Fifth Dynasty (ca
2480 B.C.) period it is attributed to. The site seems very old, much older than other Old
Kingdom sties dated earlier than the Fifth Dynasty. There are the remains of an offering
table called a Hotep, made out of large pieces of alabaster in front of the mound and
several unusual looking alabaster structures. These structures have gear-like designs on
the top with perfectly round holes bored into them near the top. Egyptologists have never
been able to explain these structures except to dismiss them as places of animal
sacrifices, with no tangible evidence for these conclusions. Dr. Abdel Hakim insists Abu
Gurob is a very ancient site, perhaps the oldest in all of Egypt, and was the site of very
sacred pilgrimages throughout the entire history of Dynastic Khemit for thousands of
years.
ZAWYET EL ARYAN
Located about a mile and a half south of Giza is the village of Zawyet el Aryan where
there are several pyramids in ruins. One pyramid, called the "Layer-Pyramid," is
dated to the Third Dynasty (ca 2600 B.C.) by Egyptologists. We were not able to do much
investigative work here but did observe some interesting things. Zawyet means
"angle" in Arabic and Aryan was the name of a coptic priest. The village is
referred to as Zawyet el Musalim to Muslims--the "angle of the Muslims." We
found a site that has a mosque on it that was built on top of an earlier Coptic Christian
church. We believe the Coptic church was built on top of a Dynastic Khemitian temple that
itself may have been built on top of an ancient Predynastic Khemitian structure.
Researcher Larry Hunter has found evidence of structures underneath the later pyramids at
Zawyet supporting our contentions that this was an ancient site of Bu Wizzer. Much more
investigative work needs to be undertaken in this area.
GIZA
Giza is, of course, the most famous site in all of Egypt. Containing the Great
Sphinx and nine pyramids (three large, six small), it is the most visited and written
about site in the world! Redating of the Sphinx has been argued for by author and
independent Egyptologist John Anthony West and geologist Dr. Robert Schoch. The evidence
of water erosion on the body of the Sphinx and its enclosure would seem to indicate it was
constructed prior to 8-10,000 B.C. when there was abundant rainfall present. However, even
West and other researchers seem to accept the academic Egyptologists' view that the three
main pyramids at Giza were constructed in the Fourth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom (ca 2500
B.C.). There is no doubt that there was a Fourth Dynasty necropolis and occupation site at
Giza, and this has led fuel to the belief that the pyramids were built at this time.
Our investigation revealed several things; many tunnels honeycomb the Giza Plateau and
at least some of these tunnels were for the flow of water to the site from the west, the
ancient river, not the eastern direction of the present Nile River. I examined several of
these tunnels personally, and their reasons for and methods of construction have never
been explained by academic Egyptologists. The walls were relatively smooth, cut at right
angles right through the limestone bedrock. I have argued for almost twenty years that the
evidence linking the three main pyramids at Giza to the kings that are accepted to have
built them is far from conclusive. In fact, there are no evidences of original burials in
any of the pyramids at Giza and throughout Egypt. The term Per-Neter, from which pyramid
comes, means House of Nature, and has nothing to do with a cult of a dead king, nor a
place for anyone's burial. We believe the pyramids were places for creation and
utilization of energy (nature) by using water as the basis. This concept will be
elaborated upon in a future book, but the use of water to produce oxygen and hydrogen by
means of catalytic conversion, sound resonance and harmonics, could have produced
tremendous amounts of microwave and radio frequencies.
Dr. Abdel Hakim states the Sphinx is over 50,000 years old, and we believe the three
main pyramids at Giza are well over 20,000 years old also. Much work is still to be done
to establish this hypothesis as a viable theory. We believe we have a strong starting
point by discovering the aqueducts, water tunnels, and channels used to draw water from
the west where the Nile was located over 10,000 years ago.
ABU RUWASH
Last, but certainly not least, is the site of Abu Ruwash about five miles northwest of
Giza. Abu Ruwash means the "Father of Cooks" in Arabic. The meaning of the title
is unknown. Abu Ruwash is a small mountain, a few thousand feet up from the valley floor
and contains the ruins of a pyramid. Because very little remains of this pyramid except
for some of the core infrastructure, it is assumed this pyramid was never completed. It is
also assumed the pyramid was constructed by a king named Djedefra of the Fourth Dynasty
(ca. 2550 B.C.), although there is no real evidence linking this king to this site. I,
myself, was guilty for years of accepting the academic Egyptological view of this site
until we investigated it in September 1997! Abu Ruwash has to be seen to be believed--the
pyramid was virtually built into the mountain! Although there is very little left, the
core limestone blocks set into the bedrock of the mountain can still be clearly seen. Many
large blocks of granite still litter the site. There were thousands of tons of limestone
and granite that would have to have been hauled thousands of feet up to construct this
pyramid, so academic Egyptologists would rather believe the site was never completed than
to try to explain how this could have been accomplished by mechanical means! First, the
mountain would have to have been "cored" out and then the core limestone blocks
set in precise configurations. The pyramid definitely appeared to me to have been quarried
or destroyed and not in a state of non-completion. The sight lines from the top of the Abu
Ruwash pyramid mountain were to Giza, and on a clear day, to Sakkara. Perhaps when
originally built, one could see all the way to Dahshur, some twenty miles to the south,
covering the whole of Bu Wizzer. Much more work has to be done at Abu Ruwash, as there are
evidences of tunnels at this site also, and it remains to be determined if these tunnels
also brought water from the west to this mountain pyramid over 10,000 years ago.
CONCLUSIONS
This has been a preliminary research report on the elucidation of the ancient area of
Khemit known as Bu Wizzer. Much of the information presented here has been taught by Dr.
Abdel Hakim Awyan who represents the indigenous Egyptian traditions about his native land.
The investigations mentioned herein have taken place in 1992, 1996 and, in particular,
1997. We are developing the hypothesis that the ancient Khemitian civilization had great
knowledge of science, engineering and mathematics, which was expressed in the material
structures they built. These structures, later called temples and pyramids, were
originally intended, not in the service of a religion focusing around the cult of a dead
king, but for real, practical purposes. One of these practical purposes was the profound
understanding of water--that this amazing liquid is the source and key to all life. Only
two Austrian naturalists, Viktor Shauberger (1885-1958) and Johann Grander have
rediscovered in this century the knowledge of the amazing properties of water than may
have been known to the people of Ancient Khemit over 10,000 years ago. It is evident the
Khemitians built elaborate structures, somehow drilled miles of tunnels into limestone
bedrock and used igneous rocks such as granite, basalt, alabaster and schist as well as
limestone, for the amplification and utilization of the magic of water.
Much more investigative work, both archaeological and geological, is yet to be
accomplished to make this hypothesis a working, viable theory. We welcome all assistance
and support to this end. Great appreciation is given to the Board of Directors of the
Kinnaman Foundation for sponsoring this effort.
