You are looking across the "Sacred Pool" of the Grand Temple of Amen-Ra in the city now called Luxor. When this temple was built, however, the city was called Wa'Set. The Grand Temple of Amen-Ra was rebuilt in stone upon the ruins of a far older Temple for Pharaoh Senwosret I, of the 11th dynasty in 2000 B.C. His statutes still stand in the Luxor and Cairo museums and are shown in volumes One and Two of our video series. The Greeks called him Sesostris. Senwosret I called  this place the Ipet Isut, meaning the "Most Select of Places."

The Greeks called it the "Hermothis" the domain of Hermes. For the ancient Kemites the temple the Arabs call Karnac was the realm of Tehuti or Thoth, good of wisdom, inventor of writing and books, to root to the word Thought. From 2000 B.C. to 525 B.C., Wa'Set was capital of KMT.

The Grand Temple was the main administrative center for the ancient chain of temples along the Nile, which still stand, mark the ancient African cities and, if one can read the ancient languages there, can read the history of these African people for at least 4,000 years and some places even longer.

Hard evidence shows that formal human burials have taken place at the city called Wa'Set for 100,000 years. Across the river from this temple is the location of the tomb of Tutanhkamen and the "Valley's of the King's & Queens" of the "New Kingdom". (1650 B.C. - 1290 B.C.) Abydos was the royal burial ground of the 'Old Kingdom" Pharaohs.

Luxor is the Arab name meaning "City of the Palaces" applied to after 641 A.D. to the city of Wa'Set, which Greeks renamed Thebes after 332 B.C. The truth is sometimes hidden right before ones very eyes. Amen.

The temple of Amen-Ra, built by over 500 Pharaohs still stands, which is probably why people still say Amen today. It also shows Masons wearing aprons 4000 years ago.
