The Second Era<\/strong> begins after the fall of the Atlanteans and the establishment of Greek supremacy in the Mediterranean region for the second time, according to the accounts of Aeschylus, Plato<\/strong>, and other classical writers. This was followed by the Flood of Deucalion<\/strong> (approximately 14,000 B.P.<\/strong>). Thereafter, according to the ancient texts, another period of silence in the historical tradition followed, together with another major chronological gap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Third Era (approximately 7,000\u20133,300 B.C.)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Many Greeks, who were later deified by the Egyptians, ruled during this period. They were followed by:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1st Proteus.<\/strong> The Egyptians called him Cethes (Ketes)<\/strong> (during the period of the Trojan War). During the reign of Proteus, Paris<\/strong> came to him and was received as his guest. Later Menelaus<\/strong> also came, and was said to have been related to him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2nd Remphis<\/strong>, son of Proteus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Subsequently, other kings followed, whose origin was traced to Argos<\/strong> and Mycenae<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fourth Era \u2013 Fourth Dynasty (approximately 3,300\u20133,100 B.C.)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

(Of Greek origin from the city of Thinis.)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Manetho<\/strong>, this dynasty lasted 203 years<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modern historians place the First Dynasty<\/strong> after the Great Flood in Egypt, although not after the Flood of Deucalion. They maintain that this flood occurred around 3500 B.C.<\/strong>, rather than 3100 B.C.<\/strong>, as stated by Manetho.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Africanus<\/strong>, after the Flood the First Dynasty consisted of eight (8) kings<\/strong> who ruled for 253 years<\/strong>. According to Syncellus<\/strong>, after the Flood Minos<\/strong> ruled Egypt together with seven of his descendants for the same period of 253 years<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Minos<\/strong>, son of Minos of Crete<\/strong>, united Upper and Lower Egypt into a single kingdom. He spread the religion of Helios-Ra<\/strong>, introduced phonetic writing<\/strong> and the calendar<\/strong>, and erected monuments in the cities of Abydos, Chelona<\/strong>, and Saqqara<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Homer<\/strong> states that toward the end of the Trojan War<\/strong>, Memnon<\/strong>, King of Ethiopia, arrived together with Egyptian forces as an ally of the Trojans. This account coincides with the chronology of the Trojan War, which is described as the second great civil war among the Greeks<\/strong>, the first being that between the Greeks and the Atlanteans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the Trojan War, Minos<\/strong> was reigning in Egypt (the first ruler of the First Dynasty), while his son Memnon<\/strong> ruled Ethiopia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Minos<\/strong>, also known as Menes (the Thinite)<\/strong>, was seized and killed by a hippopotamus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Athosis<\/strong>, son of Minos, built the royal palace at Memphis<\/strong>. At the same time, he had studied medicine and wrote a treatise on anatomy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Uenephes<\/strong> built the pyramids at Cochome<\/strong>. During his reign, Egypt was struck by drought and suffered famine, pestilence, and severe starvation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Second Dynasty<\/strong>, consisting of nine (9) kings<\/strong>, was likewise of Greek origin, although its rulers bore Egyptian names and came from the city of Thinis<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Herodotus<\/strong> also adds Nitocris<\/strong>. Together they ruled for 297 years<\/strong>. For reasons of brevity, I have not considered it necessary to list all the Greek and Egyptian names.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Third Dynasty<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

(Beginning in 2686 B.C.)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its rulers governed for 214 years<\/strong>. They were all Greeks originating from Memphis<\/strong>. They accomplished nothing particularly noteworthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fourth Dynasty<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

(Beginning in 2613 B.C.)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Herodotus<\/strong>, its rulers were Greeks from Memphis<\/strong>. According to Eusebius<\/strong>, the first four dynasties after the Flood ruled for a total of 1,195 years<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For reasons of brevity, I have not considered it necessary to list all the Greek and Egyptian names.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

By studying the prehistory of the Mediterranean region, one reaches a conclusion opposite to what has traditionally been taught in schools: namely, that civilization did not<\/strong> come to Greece from the East; rather, the reverse occurred. The Greeks were the first creators of civilization, and all other peoples borrowed it and, according to the author, applied it incorrectly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
