More evidence of colonization of Egypt

http://www.indiatribune.com/getImage.aspx?ImageID=2155

My dear Nikita and Sanjna: Niranjan Shah,--------------- So far we

saw that people from India using Indus Valley area and coasting

along Mekran, Oman, Yemen and Ethiopia migrated to land now known as

Nubia and Egypt. They carried their culture and named this new

country, rivers, and mountains in Sanskrit. We also saw that these

people had developed shipbuilding and navigation since very remote

period for ocean travel so that they can carry their culture to new

lands. Here we have more evidence of this cultural colonization of

Egypt by ancient India. Author Paul William Roberts states

in "Empire of The Soul: Some Journeys in India.Recent research

and scholarship make it increasingly possible to believe that the

Vedic era was the lost civilization whose legacy the Egyptians and

the Indians inherited. There must have been one. There are too many

similarities between hieroglyphic texts and Vedic ones, these in

turn echoed in somewhat diluted form and a confused fashion by the

authors of Babylonian texts and the Old Testament." Max Muller had

also observed that the mythology of Egyptians is wholly founded on

Vedic traditions. Eusebius, a Greek writer, has also recorded that

the early Ethiopians emigrated from the Indus river and first

settled in the vicinity of Egypt. Louis Jacolliot (1837-1890), who

worked in French India as a government official and was at one time

President of the Court in Chandranagar, translated numerous Vedic

hymns, the Manusmriti, and the Tamil work, Kural. This French savant

and author of La Bible Dans L'Inde says: "With such congruence

before us, no one, I imagine, will appear to contest the purely

Hindu origin of Egypt.... Friedrich Wilhelm, Freiherr von Bissing

(1873-1956) wrote in Prehistoricsche Topfen aus Indien and

Aegypten: "The land of Punt in the Egyptian ethnological traditions

has been identified by the scholars with the Malabar coast of

Deccan. From this land ebony, and other rich woods, incense, balsam,

precious metals, etc. used to be imported into Egypt." As mentioned

in W.H. Schoff writes in "Periplus of The Erythreans" by W.H.

Schoff, Colonel Speake says: "All our previous information,

concerning the hydrography of these regions, originated with the

ancient Hindus, who told it to the priests of the Nile; and all

these busy Egyptian geographers, who disseminated their knowledge

with a view to be famous for their long-sightedness, in solving the

mystery which enshrouded the source of their holy river, were so

many hypothetical humbugs. The Hindu traders had a firm basis to

stand upon through their intercourse with the Abyssinians. Colonel

Rigby now gave me a most interesting paper, with a map attached to

it, about the Nile and the Mountains of the Moon. Lieutenant Wilford

wrote it, from the "Purans" of the Ancient Hindus. As it

exemplifies, to a certain extent, the supposition I formerly arrived

at concerning the Mounta-ins of the Moon being associated with the

country of the Moon, I would fain draw the attention of the reader

of my travels to the volume of the Asiatic Researches in which it

was published. It is remarkable that the Hindus have christened the

source of the Nile Amara, which is the name of a country at the

north-east corner of the Victoria N'yanza. This, I think, shows

clearly, that the ancient Hindus must have had some kind of

communication with both the northern and southern ends of the

Victoria N'yanza." Let pioneer Indologist and Sanskri-tist Sir

William Jones conclude in Asiatic Researches, Volume I: "Of the

cursory observations on the Hindus, which it would require volumes

to expand and illustrate, this is the result, that they had an

immemorial affinity with the old Persians, Ethiopians and Egyptians,

the Phoenicians, Greeks, and Tuscans, the Scythians, or Goths, and

Celts, the Chinese, Japanese, and Peruvians." — Grandpa's blessings
