Rare Ancient Dates in Templar Archaeology

Short Proofs of Rare Dates in the Standard Academic Timeline

 

The modern Templar Restoration has established short proofs of rare dates of key historical points related to important ancient heritage of the original Templar Order.  These are dated by the Conventional Timeline of mainstream university academia, to be compatible with international standards for further research.

 

This summary provides a powerful overview revealing strong connections between diverse historical events relevant to Templar ancient heritage.

 

 

 

Academic Dates in Conventional Timeline

 

Some ancient dates are extremely rare in academia, despite their general popular interest as topics, because they are only needed by history scholars of very narrow specialization.  Such rare dates thus cannot be simply ‘looked up’ directly in books nor encyclopedias, but rather must be reconstructed through short proofs from scattered facts in diverse rare documents.

 

There are only a few key rare dates which have become relevant to archaeology of the Templar Restoration.  The short proofs of these dates, established by specialized research of the restored Templar Order, are presented here in this report, for convenience of reference for further restoration.

 

These short proofs of rare dates are based upon the ancient historical record directly from original sources, the classical historical record documenting ancient history, and the modern findings of archaeology reconciling kings lists with artifacts from excavations.

 

Overview Perspective – This focused collection of short proofs of rare dates results in a powerful overview of world history related to the Templar Order.  This provides deep insight, from a ‘bird’s eye’ perspective, revealing strong connections between diverse historical events and situations, which are relevant to Templar ancient heritage.

 

Note on Chronology – The ancient dates presented here do not assert nor reject any theological belief nor philosophical position, and are generally not incompatible with some widely accepted Biblical Chronology timelines.

 

The Templar Order must use the Conventional Timeline of mainstream university academia for reference, which is necessary to be compatible with international standards, enabling new research breakthroughs for further restoration of Templar heritage of the Order.

 

Purpose of Dates – The only purpose of these ancient dates is not to confirm nor deny any beliefs of religion nor science, but rather to unlock further rediscovery of the traditions of Chivalry from the historical record.

 

The primary significance and utility of these dates is not their timeframe, but rather their sequence, revealing which earlier events may have influenced later events, to provide a context for historical analysis.

Adam and Eve in Eden – ca. 15,560 BC

 

The classical historical record does not contain sufficient details to directly date the event or situation which the Bible documented as Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden.  Accordingly, a conventional date can only be estimated by clarifying the classical evidence with details from the Biblical scripture.

 

Prominent 19th century historians noted extensive evidence throughout the classical historical record, reflected in essentially all indigenous traditions worldwide, that the Ten Kings of Atlantis were believed to be leaders of the original Adamic Tribes, related to the Genesis Patriarchs from Adam and Eve:

 

“[T]he Bible [has Ten] Ante-Diluvian [Pre-Flood] Patriarchs… Ten are mentioned in the Book of Genesis… those primitive ancestors whose history is lost in a mist of fable…  [Universally described as] ten emperors, partakers of the divine nature, before the dawn of historical times… ten ancestors… ten mythical kings”. [1] [2]

 

Classical Bible scholarship generally dates the birth year of the Ten Adamic Patriarchs by the Latin designation “Anno Mundi” literally “Year of the World”, meaning the year after Creation, abbreviated as “AM”:

 

Seth (130 AM), Enos (235 AM), Cainan (325 AM), Mahalalel (395 AM), Jared (460 AM), Enoch (622 AM), Methuselah (687 AM), Lamech (874 AM), Noah (1056 AM), and Shem (1558 AM).

 

This indicates a combined period of 1,560 years, forming the only known development of the tribes for the universally reported Ten Kings of Atlantis.

 

Ancient Egyptian historical records reported the beginning of Atlantean civilization dated as ca. 14,120 BC, thereby dating the Royal Alliance of the Ten Kings of Atlantis to ca. 14,000 BC (details established below).

 

Therefore, the best estimate of conventional academic calculations, for dating Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, would be ca. 15,560 BC.

 

Atlantis Royal Alliance – ca. 14,000 BC

 

The classical Egyptian historian Manetho, in his Dynasties Stela stone tablet (ca. 220 BC), identified a period of “thirteen thousand nine hundred [13,900] years” before his time as “the reign of the gods [angels]”, dating the beginning of Egyptian history from the beginning of Atlantean civilization as ca. 14,120 BC [3].

 

Plato’s Critias Manuscript (ca. 400 BC) documented the foundation of the ancient international Royal Alliance, as a treaty alliance of “Ten Kings” led by the “Atlantean” kingdoms.  This could not be immediate, but would develop over about 100-120 years, thus dating the Royal Alliance to ca. 14,000 BC. [4]

 

Egypt as Atlantean Colony – ca. 11,800 BC

 

A 19th century lawyer historian confirmed, from analysis of the historical record as documented by classical historians and modern archaeology, that Ancient Egypt was originally established as a Colony of Atlantis:

 

The Egyptians were the only people of antiquity who were well-informed as to the history of Atlantis.  The Egyptians were never a maritime people, and the Atlanteans must have brought that knowledge to them.”

 

“There is no evidence that the [original] civilization of Egypt was developed in Egypt itself; it must have been transported there from some other country.” [5]

 

Plato’s Timaeus Manuscript (ca. 400 BC) reported the history of Atlantis which Solon the “Law Giver of Athens” (ca. 600 BC) received directly from the Ancient Priesthood in Egypt, which “he brought with him from Egypt”.  This documented that “Atlantis” was an “empire” which established colonies “as far as Egypt”, and revealed that Egypt was the first and thus “oldest Colony of Atlantis” [6].

 

The historian Herodotus’ Histories: Euterpe (ca. 450 BC) and Plato’s Timaeus Manuscript (ca. 400 BC) together established that Ancient Egypt was originally developed as an Atlantean Colony.  Herodotus documented that Egyptian Priests dated their written history to 11,340 years before their meeting ca. 450 BC, thereby dating Atlantean colonization of Egypt to ca. 11,800 BC [7].

 

Persian & Sumerian Colonies – ca. 11,000 BC

 

The 19th century lawyer historian verified from classical history that after Egypt became the first Atlantean Colony, “the Assyrians [Sumerians] and Persians” also became colonies of Atlantis [8].  (Note that “Assyrian” was actually the later name for ancient “Sumerian”.)  This is supported by some findings of archaeology:

 

The civilization of ancient Sumer and Assyria (modern Iraq and Syria) began in its heartland of Nineveh (of the Yazidi people in northern Iraq), established an estimated 1,000 years before development of the Neolithic period ca. 10,000 BC [9].  The beginning of ancient Sumer can thus be dated to ca. 11,000 BC.

 

The civilization of ancient Persia (modern Iran) developed from the Paleolithic (Stone Age) period in the Zagros region (western Iran), and mirrored Sumer transitioning to organized agriculture of the Neolithic period shortly before ca. 10,000 BC [10].  Based on indications of receiving the same influence as Sumer, the beginning of ancient Persia can thus also be dated to ca. 11,000 BC.

 

This evidences that Sumer and Persia would have become Atlantean colonies beginning ca. 11,000 BC, about 800 years after Egypt as the first colony.

 

Persian Magi Holy Grail Knights – 10,068 BC

 

Texts of ancient Persia (modern Iran) described the primordial or quasi-mythical “King Jamshid” possessing a “Magical Cup” called the “Nartamongae”, the subject of many legends about heroic Magi Knights called the “Narts”, as its “Guardians” [11] [12] [13] [14].

 

Historians of ancient literature established that “the role played by the Naramongae in the Nart sagas is clearly analogous to that played by the Holy Grail in the Arthurian legends.” [15] [16]

 

Zoroastrian dating is based on the number of years “after the first man” of Zoroastrian scriptures, which classical historians (the 1st century Plutarch and 3rd century Diogenes) dated to 10,168 BC.

 

The Zoroastrian scriptures date King Jamshid to the scriptural year “+100”, which was identified by classical scholars as “10,068 BC” [17].  A Zoroastrian Chief Priest dated the reign of King Jamshid to a timeframe consistent with ca. 10,068 BC [18].

 

The “Deluge” Great Flood – ca. 9,600 BC

 

Plato’s Timaeus Manuscript (ca. 400 BC) recorded that Solon, the Law Giver of Athens, documented that the Egyptian Priests dated the “destruction of Atlantis” to “about 9,000 years before” their meeting ca. 600 BC, thereby dating the Biblical Great Flood to ca. 9,600 BC [19].

 

Persian Magi Holy Grail Knights – 7,477 BC

 

The Persian “Narts”, Magi Guardians of the “Nartmongue” Holy Grail, founded by King Jamshid (ca. 10,068 BC), reappeared about 2,500 years later as Knights of a “Round Table”, as a Royal Order of Chivalry, led by King Kai Khosro, who scholars consider the “Persian King Arthur” [20] [21] [22] [23].

 

The Zoroastrian scriptures date King Kai Khosrow to the scriptural year “+2,691”, which was identified by classical historians (1st century Plutarch and 3rd century Diogenes) as “7,477 BC” [24].  A Zoroastrian Chief Priest dated the reign of King Kai Khosrow to a timeframe consistent with ca. 7,477 BC [25].

 

Egyptian Scorpion King – ca. 3,150 BC

 

The Ancient Egyptian “Predynastic Period” has vague origins from ca. 5,500 BC, but its first identifiable leader was the “Scorpion King” ca. 3,150 BC [26].  He was named from the oldest royal tomb at Umm el-Qa’ab in Abydos, bearing an identifying symbolic scorpion image, dated to ca. 3,150 BC [27].

 

The Scorpion King tomb contained evidence of ancient wine as used in sacramental priesthood rites: “[A]rchaeologists… unearthed a collection of dozens of imported ceramic jars with a yellow residue consistent with wine in the tomb of Egyptian King Scorpion I, dated about 3,150 BC”.

 

Archaeologists associated the “imported” wine of the Scorpion King with “chemical residue of wine jars from [ca.] 5,500 BC from a site in northwestern Iran [Persia].” [28]

 

Ancient Persian texts attribute the invention of wine to the semi-mythical King Jamshid of the Persian Narts of a Round Table [29].

 

The Tomb of Tutankhamen contained an alabaster Holy Grail artifact called the “Wishing Cup” [30], related to the Nartmongue Holy Grail of the Persian Narts.

 

This evidences that the earliest Kings of Egypt received cultural influence from ancient Persia, of the Persian Magi Holy Grail Nart Knights of a Round Table.

 

Sumerian Magi Fisher Priests – ca. 2,900 BC

 

The Ancient Sumerian Magi Priesthood featured “Seven Sages”, in Sumerian called the “Apkallu”, meaning “High Priests” as “wise ones amongst the gods [angels]” [31].  The Sages were listed in the Sumerian “Kings List” tablet of 165 BC, indicating seven of them before the Deluge (Great Flood), and eight after the Deluge, evidencing that they are semi-mythical primordial “Kings” [32].

 

This is consistent with ancient Sumer being originally established as an Atlantean Colony ca. 11,000 BC.  It is also consistent with Sumer (Assyria) sharing the same interruption and revival after the Deluge as its sister Colony Persia.

 

The Sumerian “Seven Sages” were described as “of the Great Water” (suggesting Atlantis) [33], and were thus depicted in stone reliefs and statue artifacts as clothed in symbolic fish regalia [34].  Accordingly, they are also described in academia as the “Fisher Kings” or “Fisher Priests”.

 

Sumerian Mesopotamia (modern Iraq) developed its earliest cuneiform tablets from ca. 3,500 BC [35], but did not yet establish its Early Dynastic Period of Sumerian civilization until later ca. 2,900 BC [36].

 

This evidences that the active practice of the Sumerian Sages tradition, as the Magi Priesthood of the Fisher Priests, can be dated to ca. 2,900 BC.

 

Artifacts of the Fisher Priests were predominantly found in the Neo-Assyrian Palaces of Ashur-nasir-pal II of ca. 880 BC and Senna-cherib of ca. 705 BC [37], evidencing greater influence of the Sumerian Magi from ca. 900 BC.

 

Egyptian Magi Djedi Order – ca. 2,570 BC

 

The “Djedi Order” of the Ancient Priesthood of Egypt was named after the “Djed Pillar” symbol of the Archangel Osiris.  Djed Pillar artifacts were prevalent in Egypt as early as the Predynastic period [38], evidencing that the Djedi Priesthood may have existed as early as ca. 5,500 BC.  [39]

 

The Ancient Egyptian Order of “Djedi”, as “Magi” and “Guardians” of the Royal Secret Archives of sacred wisdom, was established as a Royal Order of Chivalry in the royal court of a Prince named after the Djed pillar of Osiris, and first documented in a papyrus scroll text dated ca. 2,570 BC [40] [41].

 

The papyrus scroll evidences that the Djedi Order was officially established as a Royal Order by the Crown Prince “Ra-djed-ef”, and then led by his brother Prince “Hor-djed-ef”, both sons of King Khufu who ruled from 2,589-2566 BC, thus confirming the date of ca. 2,570 BC [42].

 

Melchizedek Sumerian Magi – 2,075 BC

 

The Old Testament “Melchizedek” (New Testament “Melchisedec”) was the Chief High Priest of the Sumerian Magi, who “brought forth bread and wine, and… blessed [Abraham]”, and Abraham “gave him tithes of all” (Genesis 14:17-20).

 

The general consensus of Bible historians is that the Prophet Abraham was born in 2,150 BC [43].

 

The meeting of Abraham and Melchizedek (Genesis 14:18) occurred before Abraham was 100 years old when his son Isaac was born (Genesis 21:5).  Accordingly, most Bible historians conclude that Abraham was 75 years old at the time of meeting Melchizedek, thus dating that event to 2,075 BC.

 

Melchizedek appears at Abraham’s “return from the Slaughter of [King] Chedorlaomer… at the Valley of Shaveh” (Genesis 14:17), which in Bible scholarship is called the “Battle of the Valley of Siddim”, located to the south of the Dead Sea [44].  That is on the border of modern Israel and Jordan, which in turn is bordered by Syria and Iraq, which were Sumerian in ancient times.

 

(Note that the date of the appearance of the Biblical Melchizedek, in 2,075 BC, is only 825 years after the Sumerian Magi Fisher Priests from ca. 2,900 BC.)

 

Confirming that Melchizedek was a Sumerian Magi Chief High Priest, Biblical historians documented that Abraham received from him a “Tablet of Destiny” of Magi sacred knowledge, such that the heritage of Abraham was thus called “Light of the Magicians [Magi]”, meaning the Biblical Magi [45].

 

Djedi Great White Brotherhood – 1,450 BC

 

The Egyptian Djedi Magi Order established the “Great White Brotherhood”, named for their sacred “white powder” of spiritual alchemy derived from gold.  During the reign of the Pharaoh Tuthmosis III (1,479 – 1,425 BC), the society had 39 of their Djedi Magi High Priests on the High Council of Karnak Temple in Luxor, making it their headquarters. [46]

 

That history of development of this Djedi Magi society dates the “Great White Brotherhood of Luxor” to ca. 1,450 BC.

 

Biblical Exodus of Moses – 1,446 BC

 

The Bible dates the year of the Exodus as follows: “In the 480th year after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt, in the 4th year of Solomon’s reign… he began to build the house [Temple] of the Lord.” (I Kings 6:1)  The 4th year of the Kingdom of Solomon was ca. 966 BC, thus the 480th year before that was ca. 1,446 BC.

 

Archaeology identifies an approximate “Period of the Exodus”, occurring sometime during the range of “1,550 – 1,400 BC” [47].

 

The earlier year 1,550 BC identifies the Pharaoh “Ahmose” who reigned ca. “1,550 – 1,525 BC” [48].  Ahmose had a military victory against the “Hyksos” (foreign tribes associated with the Exodus), causing the site of the Hyksos capital “Avaris” (at Tell el-Dab’a in the Nile Delta) to be suddenly abandoned:

 

Evidence from Avaris itself tends to confirm [a] mass exodus… after Ahmose’s victory.  A clear cultural break is visible [by] the latest Hyksos stratum [pottery]… After the break there is no evidence of any continued occupation by people with [that] culture, and in some parts of the site occupation ceased altogether.” [49]

 

The war [of Ahmose against Hyksos] must have lasted… since we know that… Avaris was not taken until between the regnal years 18 and 22 of Ahmose.” [50]

 

However, those details of an ‘exodus’ only from one city do not include any other elements of the Biblical Exodus.  This only marks the beginning of a process of conflict leading to later expulsion, which typically spans about 100 years.

 

The later year 1,446 BC identifies the Pharaoh Thutmose III.  Although he was officially ‘co-regent’ with his step-mother Queen Hatshepsut from 1479 BC, he only became Pharaoh upon her death in 1458 BC.  Because he was overshadowed by this popular Queen, limited to the role of Commander of her armies, this made him very stubborn and aggressive when he finally took the throne.

 

In his first year as Pharaoh, Thutmose III led his army into Megiddo in the Biblical ‘land of Israel’, giving them experience (and later confidence) in crossing the Red Sea marsh-land of Sinai.

 

These historical details match, and indeed explain, the Biblical character of the Pharaoh of the Exodus event, which was only 12 years after he became Pharaoh.

 

The Ipuwer Papyrus, written by a high Egyptian official named Ipuwer (ca. 1,400 BC), documents a series of catastrophic events in Egypt which closely correspond with the plagues of the Exodus, in many details [51].

 

Although the papyrus itself was “Copied in the thirteenth century BC” from the earlier original, the text is dated as “prior to the thirteenth century BC”.  The text was thus written before ca. 1,300 BC, probably ca. 1,400 BC, and documenting recent events, which “approximately fits the Exodus date” of 1,446 BC. [52]

 

An inscription in the Tomb of the Pharaoh Seti I, called “Destruction of Mankind” (ca. 1,300 BC), features the full divine name of God “I Am that I Am”, using the Egyptian hieroglyphic root word “YWY” or “Yawi”, which became the Old Testament “Yahweh”.  This is the name revealed to Moses at the Burning Bush in the Book of Exodus: “God said unto Moses, I Am that I Am” (Exodus 3:14).

 

Archaeologists note that “the Destruction of Mankind tells of a non-Egyptian people who flee from the eastern Nile Delta… only to be pursued by the Egyptian army”. [53] [54] [55]

 

This confirms the Exodus as a process, beginning with Ahmose driving out the Hyksos from Avaris in the Nile Delta ca. 1,530 BC, and culminating in the Biblical event of Thutmose III chasing them as they leave the country ca. 1,446 BC.

 

Therefore, the available archaeology findings reliably confirm the Biblical date for the year of the Exodus at ca. 1,446 BC.

 

Babylonian Satanic Cults – ca. 1,215 BC

 

Of course, Templar heritage wholly excludes, and the Templar Order strictly rejects, anything which is Satanic in any way.  Nonetheless, it is useful to place a rare date of the origins of Babylonian Satanism on the timeline, which proves that it came much later than all Templar ancient heritage.

 

Although the Babylonian Empire existed from ca. 1,894 BC in Mesopotamia (Iraq), and the Kingdoms of Tyre (Lebanon), Edom (Jordan) and Phoenicia (Syria) [56], the demonic practices of its religion developed later.

 

The earliest known Satanic Agenda in defiance of God began with the Biblical figure of King Nimrod and the Tower of Babel event (Genesis 11:1-9), which scholars of ancient history established is dated to ca. 1,215 BC [57].

 

The Greek historian Philistos of Syracuse (432-365 BC) documented that the city of Carthage (Tunisia), which became the center of demonic human sacrifices, was developed by the Babylonian Phoenicians from Tyre (Lebanon) beginning in 1,215 BC [58].

 

Therefore, the emergence of the Babylonian cult, the first organized demonic tradition as the origins of Satanism, can be reliably dated to ca. 1,215 BC.

 

This proves that the ancient Atlantean religions of Egypt (ca. 11,800 BC), Persia and Sumer (ca. 11,000 BC), and ancient traditions of the Persian Magi Nart Knights (7,477 BC), Sumerian Magi Fisher Priests (ca. 2,900 BC), and Egyptian Magi Djedi Order (ca. 2,570 BC), were never Babylonian nor anything Satanic, which only developed many centuries and millennia later.

 

Egyptian Nazarene Essenes – 250 BC

 

The New Testament documented that Jesus was called “a Nazarene” (Matthew 2:23), and the Apostles as the first Christians were called “the sect of the Nazarenes” (Acts 24:5), meaning the Egyptian Nazarene Essenes.

 

The Nazarene Essenes originated from the Djedi Magi of Pharaonic Egypt [59].

 

The primary settlement of the Nazarene Essenes was Nag Hammadi in Egypt, at the time when they wrote the oldest of the Dead Sea Scrolls, which archaeologists dated to ca. 250 BC, before their later Qumran settlement of 140 BC [60].

 

The Essenes preserved a library from the ancient Sumerian Magi among the Dead Sea Scrolls, and also wrote and preserved the Nag Hammadi Scrolls of many 1st century “Lost Gospels” of Jesus and the Apostles [61].

 

The 1st century Greek philosopher Philo of Alexandria, in his De Vita Contemplativa manuscript (ca. 30 AD), documented his direct personal interaction with the living Essenes of Egypt [62]:

 

The Essenes were Egyptians, originally based in Alexandria [63], who studied and worshiped in the Pharaonic Temples using hieroglyphs [64], lived a monastic lifestyle which later became Christian Mysticism [65], and first established Sunday Church style worship [66].

 

Egyptian Sufi Magi Order – ca. 825 AD

 

The Egyptian “Al-Banna Sufi Order” was founded by Dhul-Nun Al-Misri (796-859 AD) called “Lord of the Fish”, a High Priest title from the Sumerian Magi Fisher Priests.  Al-Misri was a Mystic and alchemist, born in the Luxor region to Coptic parents, who translated hieroglyphic papyrus scrolls, and received Djedi Magi initiation from the Great White Brotherhood of Luxor. [67]

 

Egyptian historians and Sufi scholars have dated the Al-Banna Order of Sufi Magi, within the lifetime of its founder, to ca. 825 AD.

 

A 10th century Sufi manuscript documented that the Al-Banna Sufi Order continued the Djedi Priesthood, as a Mystery school of Mystical spiritual alchemy involving the gold powder of the Great White Brotherhood [68].
