Having seen so many similarities between the Israelites and Egypt, Ralph Ellis felt sure that the Book of Genesis should also contain elements of Hyksos Egyptian culture. But how could this be so if the rivers of Eden were the Euphrates and Tigris? The answer to this is simple, because the Hebrew Bible does not mention a Euphrates or Tigris at all. What it does mention is a river that runs through Eden and splits into four branches, and this just has to be a reference to the Nile running through the Garden of Akhenaton's Aton (Adon), and splitting into the four branches of the Nile Delta. Ergo: the Genesis story has to be based upon Akhenaton and his brand of alternative theology.
Author description
Ralph Ellis is a freelance author in the sphere of speculative ancient history. Ralph trained initially as a computer programmer/analyst, where he worked on mainframe applications for banks and industry; his access to travel has allowed the many threads of this unfolding story to be analysed at first hand, additionally the international lifestyle allows a unique detached position from the domestic politics of each nation. This was particularly important during the writing of this book. Ralph has been a member of Mensa for many years, he is married with two young children. He is also the author of 'Thoth, Architect of the Universe', a radical reassessment of the design and function of the great henges and pyramids.
