So imagine these are the doors and the way we figure out what the left door and the right door is, is based on this.

But it's not just this.

So for instance, the god on the left is Nergal, god of the underworld, and we know that.

Not only that, but ancient Egyptians understood that west is death and right is east for life because the sun rises in the east and sets in the west.

And they considered it like a relationship of death and life, like the sun rebirth every day.

So that's how we know which of these doors represents which thing.

So once I was able to do that, it was basically like back engineering the rest of it.

All the rest of the things just unfolded like dominoes.

It was beautiful.

But I had to first get those understandings, okay?

Now, each of these gods, now the god on the left,

Archaeologists are going to go, wait a minute, Matt, that's Toshiba or Toshub.

And we go, sorry, it's misidentified.

This is an underworld God, not a celestial God.

That's why I've identified as being the counterpart, the equivalent of Nergal in the underworld.

He's an underworld God.

Now, if you imagine, Danny, can you have life without death?

No, right?

Because everything's balanced.

So everything is part of a delicate balance that exists, meaning that Nergal's responsibilities as a god of death and war, his counterpoint, they always have to have a balancer.
