Yeah, it's not in this folder, but in the other one. All around Egypt, dude, when you go, just look for the lotus flower. You're going to see it everywhere. Everywhere. So this is, I think that this is in the Temple of Seti. This is outside the Osirion. Okay, so there's lotus flower too. So you see the lotus flower at the top of these, you see them open and closed.

So do you see right here at the bottom in the middle, you see that closed lotus flower column and to the left of that, you see the open lotus flower column. So you see these columns everywhere and the column is like, look at the column itself as the stem of the flower and it's blooming up into the temple ceiling. Now, a lot of temple ceilings, it's the night sky.

When I was in Egypt and I was talking about these columns, there was an Egyptologist there and I was explaining to her, some of my expertise comes from studying Latin America where everything is so symbolic and deep and everything has a meaning. What do you think behind that? And she told me, she was like, don't Mayanize this, just appreciate it. And I was like... Are you kidding?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. And so, you know, I had thought that surely there is some kind of deep meaning behind the columns, the top of the columns either being enclosed or a blooming lotus flower. And then the column itself is essentially symbolic of the stem of the flower. Or sometimes it's symbolic of a wrapping of different offerings.

Like you can see on this closed one, they're wrapped together. Okay, so on the left, that comes from the Temple of Seti just outside the Osirion. And All around the Egyptian world, you're going to see these offering scenes where it's the Pharaoh giving an offering to Amun or whatever God is in front of him.
