We don't really find them down south at Aswan. We're not really finding them down south at Luxor. They're all up in the north in the Memphite region in all of the burials around there. And then Jojer, who was born in Memphis in the north, takes all of his ancestors' vases and buries himself with them. And I just wonder if he is hearkening back.

Clearly he is, because he's saying, these are the heirlooms of my ancestors. So he had to know who his direct ancestors were and that they were pre-dynastic Egyptians living in the north who made these vases and are responsible for them. But they're not made anymore. And it made me wonder, and I had that realization. I was like, oh, wow. This is, yeah, that's right.

If you look at the archeological record, there's a different type of vase making that's being made in the South. Have you ever seen the pottery that is a similar shape to these vases, but they're red and black? It's called like Badarian culture. Um, so those, um, those vases are being made in the South and you have Nakata culture as well.

That's making different kinds of, of, of vessels, but these hard stone vases are from the North. And I think that looking through Jozier, you can see, oh, okay, this is something that was wiped out when that first, when the first Pharaoh, the guy who united both lands came in, um,

I think that that unification, the chaos, the war breaking out, the leveling of northern Egyptian government to be subservient to the now pharaoh of the two lands, I just wonder if that's one of the industries that completely ended. Was it too expensive in the chaos of it? Was the place where these things are made, was it destroyed?

Something is there, and I think a smoking gun is the fact that Jozer and his immediate ancestors are Memphites from northern Egypt, because not every pharaoh is in the straight lineage. A pharaoh will die, or he'll be usurped or assassinated, or he'll be overthrown or whatever.

Um, so it's kind of messy, but Jozer and his ancestors are Memphites from Northern Egypt and we interpret those as being his ancestors. So I just wonder if, if that's my explanation or my possible theory as to why they're not made anymore.
