Presentation: Crop Circles and Ancient Egyptian
Symbolism.
The meaning, and purpose, behind ancient Egyptian symbolism has recently taken on new dimensions in definition and understanding. The early Victorian and Eurocentric archeologists interpreted the Egyptian pantheon and the symbols the Egyptians used in their hieroglyphs, funerary rites and religious practice in a rather limited fashion. It wasn’t until the famed researcher R. A.
Schwaller de Lubicz came on the scene in the late 1930’s that we began to see the true meaning behind the architecture, geometry, and other symbols the ancients used to express their own unique cosmology that represented to them a clear view of life, death, and their physical environment. Crop circles and this ancient Egyptian perspective of the universe have a central point of commonality: the importance of symbolism. Few would probably argue that the circles are primarily an expression
through abstract symbol and geometry. What can we learn about crop circles through a study of the Egyptian’s use and meaning of symbols? And what can we learn about ancient Egypt through our study of the symbology of crop circles?
