When they are right, 'The Hall of Records' must be there! Bauval and Hancock, take note! Many are searching for a 'Hall of Records' at Giza or not far from it. Either beneath the Great Sphinx or under the Great Pyramid itself is concealed a 'Hall of records' in which is preserved the entire knowledge of a lost civilisation. In it you can find the secrets of all profound science (knowledge of all history and astronomy, maps of th Earth, etc...). But is it? Is this the right place to look at? Not according to old manuscripts. 25 years ago, the French Egyptologist Albert Slosman translated that the 'Hall of Records' is in the Labyrinth! He wrote 10 books about his findings. Unfortunately, they weren't translated into English. That's where our adventure started.

When putting the map of the Nile alongside the map of the Milky Way there clearly is a visual resemblance. Several important stars from the Milky Way correspond with places where temples have been built. As mentioned before, the survivors of the catastrophe had built a primary observation post right after their arrival in their new realm; this observatory does not exist anymore. There they kept the positions of stars and planets. Together, these data formed specific geometrical combinations of which the major harmonic laws were deduced.

Diodorus of Sicily confirms this search for living in harmony on earth with the consent of the heavens. The following is written in chapter 89 of his first book: "Nowhere else can be found such an exact observation of the positions and the movements of stars and planets as with the Egyptians. They possess all observations, which they made year after year, going back to incredible ancient times!" This confirms the highpriests being "Masters of Mathematics and Numbers", and this from time immemorial. With these historical and astronomical data, based on their "Mathematical Celestial Combinations", they were able to make predictions on planetary movement, their rotation time and many other stellar phenomena, and all this without effort. I gasped for breath after reading this.

If we would possess this knowledge, then we would be able to fight successfully all opposition on the coming cataclysm! We would surely find enough indications for the incontestable evidential value of their hidden findings. But where to look? Calmly I reread the rest - which I already read a couple of weeks ago. This told us that the followers of Seth and Horus had continued dividing the country for thousands of years. Exhausted from a war which had lasted for millennia it was decided to unite the followers of Seth and Horus. It was then that was decided to built an astronomical center, identical to the one in Atlantis. The year 4608 BC, when the area of the Bull began. 365 year later the enormous work was completed. On the day that God had predestinated for this event, Athothis would officially declare the unification of Egypt and the Egyptians.

Some research tells us that the first day of Thot was 19 July 4243 BC. From then on, the Sothic era began, in addition to the classical Egyptian calendar. Undoubtedly there was a deeper significance in all this. This was not only the celebration of the unification, but also of certain cycles of sun, moon and stars. The Egyptian agriculture needed a special calendar to make their predictions of the annual flooding of the Nile more accurately. For the Sothic Calendar the Egyptians used a calendar based on 365 days. It was divided in twelve months of thirty days, and an additional five divine days. After four years this calendar is not correct anymore and one whole day is added to one year to synchronise it. Of course the Egyptians knew a year existed of 365.25 days, but they refused to count this way because their holy calendar contained the numbers on which the predicted end of the world was based.

With the use of the new calendar the farmers gained more insight in the cyclic flooding of the Nile, and didn't always have to get the advise of the highpriests. Next to these two calendars they also used a moon-calendar, counting alternately 29 and 30 days, and fitting in a cycle of precisely 25 years of 365 days. The French researcher Schwaller de Lubicz noted that this time span matched 309 moon-periods. He calculated; 25 x 365 = 9125 days 9125 / 309 = 29.5307 days per moon-period. This result is of extreme accuracy. The modern astronomy uses a moon period of 29.53059 days, a difference of only one second! This Egyptian calendar can be considered - and rightly so - as a wonder of precision.

Let's return now to the unification of the Egyptian civilization. At the bank of the Nile a public worship took place. Two highpriests addressed the Nile and spoke: "Your Heavenly sources enable us to live, because they allow our lands to be flooded every year." To the public they said: "From now on you will live in harmony with God's laws and orders, because they will grand you life on earth as well as in heaven. Fertilise the earth for your work and in turn it will provide you with cereals!" To the heads of both fractions they swore: "Your authority remains the symbol of all your actions because the way you govern will determine the happiness of your people." With their hands raised to heaven, they spoke to God: "Oh Lord of eternity, You who knows everything! May Your law and orders rule from this day on and may our lives be trouble-free. May our children follow our example, conform Your harmony, without a new catastrophe happening! May Your heavenly wisdom, which You offered us by means of the "Mathematical Celestial Combinations", fill us all and inspire us to restrain from evil actions which could provoke your anger."

It was after this memorable day that the construction of a large astronomic centre began. Its name was "Circle of Gold" and it contained two temples: "The Double House of Life" and "The Temple of the Lady from Heaven: Isis". Two different schools were in it: those studying the nightly firmament and reproducing it on earth; and others preferring a more mathematical study, where everything was theoretical, without watching the sky. This given, they possessed an incredible amount of possible combinations in relation to the sun, planets and stars of the zodiac. Because the Egyptians divided the twelve constellations of the zodiac into three, this gives us thirty-six possibilities. When multiplying the planets with this number it gives 7 x 36 = 252. Once more multiplied with twelve it gives 252 x 12 = 3024. That's how many chambers this building had! The description of Herodotus had seen a part of it and written about it in his manuscript.

To get to know more about it, I had to find Herodotus's description. I searched a number of libraries in archeology, but in vain. I did find enough references, but no clues. I decided to let it rest for a while. Then the magazine from the 'Nederlandse Boekenclub' (Dutch book club) arrived in my mail box. As always I browsed through it with curiosity. And there it was! The title jumped right at me: "Herodotus; The report of my research". It proved to be a unique Dutch translation. A few days later I bought the book; it counted more than 700 pages. I started reading immediately once I got home.

"Herodotus is my name, I am from Halikarnassos and am now telling the world about the research I did to keep the memory of the past legend and history alive and to immortalise the great, impressive works of the Greeks and other people." That could really count as opening words. I was highly interested and could have read the book at one sitting. Luckily my common sense told me to stop. It would take me several days and I didn't have that time now.

A piece of a pilar with fine sculptured crocodiles.

Rapidly I looked through the index and opened the book on the page about the labyrinth. "As a token of their unanimity they decided to leave a memorial and that led to the building of the labyrinth, which is situated not far from the southern bank of the Moiris lake, in the neighbourhood of a place called crocodilopolis. I have been there and it is beyond all description. If you would make a survey of all city walls and public buildings in Greece, you will see that all together they did not ask so much effort nor money as this labyrinth. And the temples in Efesse and Samos aren't exactly nothing either! It is true, the pyramids make you speechless and each and everyone of them equals many of our Greek buildings, but they cannot stand comparison with the labyrinth." I was overwhelmed by these words.

Realising this excited me terribly. Eagerly I went on reading his report: "To start, it has a dozen indoor gardens of which six on a row at the northern side and six at the southern side. They are built in such a manner that their portals are face to face. An exterior wall without openings surrounds the entire complex.

The building itself is a two-storeyed one and has three-thousand chambers of which half of these are underground and the other fifteen-hundred are on the ground floor." Again I had to stop reading. Three-thousand rooms with indoor gardens and one single ring wall encircling the building. More gigantic than this is not possible! Half of the rooms are above and the other half under ground. Imagine rooms with a length of only two metres, then the total length would be three kilometres! That gave me dizzy-spells. This had to be the largest building ever! No doubt about it. Why wasn't it known better? Could it be vanished from the earth? It was still there in 448 BC. Has it been taken apart since then and used for other buildings? I called Gino.

"Gino, this is Patrick. I have a few questions. Do you know whether any large, new buildings have been built in Egypt after 450 BC?" "Why do you ask this?" "I have read the description of the labyrinth in the histories of Herodotus. It must be unbelievably large! Something like that can only disappear if it would be pulled down! Hence my question." "Let me think. No, I know nothing of any large monuments being built after that date. Pyramids haven't been built anymore and temples have mainly been maintained, there hasn't really been much building." "Not even by the Romans?" "Not that I know of. But of course it could have been used to build houses." "Have you ever read anything about that?" "No, never. If it is really that big, then at least something had to be written down about it."

A map of the place where the Labyrinth might be found.

After this short conversation I was sure: the largest building ever still existed! It lay hidden somewhere under tons of desert sand. Where was I with my text. Oh, yes, here! Intrigued, I continued reading: "I visited and looked at the fifteen-hundred ground-floor chambers myself, so I speak from personal experience, but for the underground chambers I have to rely on the authority of others, because the Egyptians refused to let me in. There, the tombs can be found of the kings that originally built the labyrinth, and of the holy crocodiles.

So I have not been there and everything I know about it, I know from hearsay. The rooms on top of them have indeed been shown to me. You would not believe they were built by human hands. The passages interconnecting the chambers and the winding paths from court to court were breathtaking in their colourful variety, as I walked in full admiration from the courtyard to the chambers, from the chambers to the colonnades, from the colonnades to again other chambers and from there into still more courtyards. The ceiling of all these places where made of stone, just as the walls which are covered with relief-figures. Each courtyard is surrounded with a row of white marble, seamless columns."

'Good God', I groaned. What luxury! And nowhere is mentioned that it had been plundered or demolished! But then where was this monumental labyrinth, with the tombs of the twelve kings? Undoubtedly, there must be the biggest treasures ever to be found in Egypt! Tutankhamen's treasury is nothing compared to this. That is something you can be sure of. I became more and more excited.

The whole world would be extremely excited when this still unknown wonder of the world would be opened up. Yet, to find it, I first had to discover a link with the place where I had to look....
