Nebuchadnezzar name base

[edit]

This word would seem to have a more than coincidental link to the Biblical king of Babylon, Nebuchadnezzar. 124.189.9.57 (talk) 22:03, 26 January 2013 (UTC) Ian Ison[reply]

Hi all, none of this information is cited correctly - I’ve managed to verify most of it + rewrite it with the correct citations, and will delete the unverifiable information within the next 48 hours. Cheers!! Yellowbluegreen (talk) 03:31, 26 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect Depiction within Spell 87

[edit]

I have done some digging around with both the Papyrus of Ani and Book of the Dead of Ramose, and neither within them show that the figure depicted is confirmed to be Neheb-Kau. The Figure shown is most likely a representation of earth/Geb or for the Papyrus of Ani, a new minor deity called [Seta/Sata], who encompaces the earth and the serpent. Seta/Sata may also be a tranliteration of serpent, which may also add more confusion (Page 386 on IA, 148 in book). The heiroglyphs also do not mention his name, or even Ka (though i could be misreading the cursive). If this is true or somewhat factual with the sources provided, I propose a change to that section, and or a new section entirely for the Book of the Dead mentioning Spell 87 and this confusion.
