Hathor, as the 'Mistress of Heaven' was originally a personification of the Milky Way, which was considered to be the milk that flowed from the udders of a heavenly cow. While as "the Celestial Nurse" she nursed the Farao in the guise of a cow or as a sycamore fig (because it exudes a white milky substance). As "the Mother of Mothers" she was the goddess of women, fertility, children and childbirth. She is an Ancient Egyptian goddess who personified the principles of joy, feminine love, and motherhood It is highly unlikely that the Egyptian princess/queen used the Hebrew or Arabic language to name Moshe משה (mshh). It is only when he began to play a role in the Israelites lives, that his name was translated into Hebrew language and subsequently Arabic. Moshe is mentioned more in the Quran than any other individual, and his life is narrated and recounted more than that of any other prophet. A quick point to note is that the Arabic language is fusional and as such, names like Moshe lost their inflection over the centuries. Mûsâ : ٰمُوسَى, : Mūsa, Meaning: ( please help with latter meanings as there a many)© Without any doubt Moshe/Mose/Mosis is an Ancient Egyptian name, the etymology of the name of course would then have to start from this very context. Royal names were followed by epithets, that is a phrase (an adjective) expressing a quality or attribute regarded as characteristic of the person or deity mentioned such as ‘life, prosperity or health’. This is comparable to the way in which names of Prophets are followed by the phrase ‘peace be upon him’. An example of one such usage on a person would be AmenHotep, which means ‘Amun is content’ and TutAnkhAmun literally translates to ‘the living image of Amun’ (which was originally..living image of Aten). An example for gods is RaHotep (the sun god Ra is content), Mentuhotep and PtahHotep (the creator god Ptah is content). Now by changing ‘Hotep’ to ‘Mose’ the names AmenMose, RaMose and PtahMose assumed the qualities attached to the adjective ‘Mose’. © We observe its proper usage on Farao ThutMose/ThutMosis I, the third of the 18th dynasty of Egypt. He ascended to the throne after the death of the previous king AmenHotep I. His wife was Queen AhMose (Amusa) who was probably daughter of Farao Ahmose I. Their 1st born son was AmenMose and another son WadjMose. In linguistics, an adjective is a "describing word", the main syntactic role of which is to qualify a noun or noun phrase, giving more information about the object or person signified. So the word ‘Mose’ in its African context was an adjective and not used as a noun (name).© The Southern African Bantu term that expresses the concept of Love, kindness, affability, peace, helpfulness, consideration, friendliness, decency and mercy is ‘Mosa’ or ‘uMusa’. All this traits or characteristics are encompassed and consolidated into this one word. Let us then examine this further: The Bantu-SothoTswana word for Woman is ‘Mosadi’ and in the Zulu-Bantu language we have the following two words: ‘NoMusa’, (meaning ‘Mother of kindness/mercy’) and ‘MusaweNkosi’ (meaning ‘the kindness or generosity of the Lord’). Again, the Bantu-SothoTswana word for ‘Good Samaritan’ is ‘MosaMaria’ and an old word for suckle is ‘Amusa’, this is also used as part of an expression ‘Tadi e amusa’ meaning, 12H00 midday.© The Sotho-Tswana word ' Mosadi'(woman) has an inflected ' t' which is a feminine marker, giving us ' Mosa- t' for female and ' Mosa' for male. © Hathor is commonly depicted as a cow goddess with horns in which is set a sun disk with Uraeus. The twin feathers as explained elsewhere symbolises (black) space where the sun rests. Hathor may be the cow goddess who is depicted on the Narmer Palette and on a stone urn dating from the 1st dynasty that suggests a role as sky-goddess and a relationship to Horus who, as a sun god, is "housed" in her. The Sun resting in between the horns represent 12 midday which ties in with the expression 'Tadi e amusa' meaning the time when the mysterious principle called Tadi gives nourishment (breast feeds). The one who receives this nourishment would then come to incorporate the 2 principles of Horus and Hathor giving us Ra-Musa or Ra-Mose, who is thought to be the Farao of the Exodus.© In my opinion the "name" Mose was the ancient Egyptian way of acknowledging that the child already had a "self-fulfilling" name given to him by his biological parents and it remains unknown up to this day, hence he was only referred to by the epithet derived from the mystical nature of Hathor. I say this because the iconology of the sacred cow arriving/riding on a sacred barge, ties in with how Mose also arrived by way of the Nile into the House of Farao. It was among some of the difficult to table factors that guaranteed his safety in the house of Farao. Only a true God will know the secrets of the ancient people belief system, this might be reasons that propelled Akhenaten who is believed to be behind the erasing of the records of defeat by the very God of Aaron. © Understand then that the Words or Speech of God Almighty cannot be tied to one single moment but what He says can be applied to an individual's life as a whole, for God is Spirit and man is matter. Exodus 7:1 "And Jehovah said to Moses, See, I have made thee God to Pharaoh; and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet." In other words "I presented you to Pharaoh like the goddess Hathor" and as a deity you shall also have a prophet©

The 10 plaguesThe Admonition (Papyrus) of Ipuwer (Ipuwa, meaning Self-professed) is considered an average eye-witness account of the time of Exodus in Egypt.(1) "The (Egyptian) papyrus containing the words of Ipuwer ... according to its first possessor, Anastasi, was found in the neighborhood of the pyramids of Saqqara. In 1909 the text was published by Alan H. Gardiner. The text points to the historical character of the situation. Egypt was in distress; the social system had become disorganized; violence filled the land. Invaders preyed upon the defenseless population; the rich were stripped of everything and slept in the open, and the poor took their possessions. ... Compare some passages from the Book of Exodus (with) the papyrus." (2) The scribe wrote this piece of literature in the so called 'Hieratic' script, one of the three styles existing in ancient Egypt (3) Papyrus 2:5-6 Plague is throughout the land. Blood is everywhere. 2:10 The river is blood. Exodus 7:21 There was blood throughout all the land of Egypt. 7:20 All the waters that were in the river were turned to blood. Papyrus 2:10 Men shrink from tasting .. and thirst after water. Exodus 7:24 And all the Egyptians digged round about the river for water to drink; for they could not drink of the water of the river. Papyrus 2:8 Forsooth, the land turns round as does a potter's wheel. 2:11 The towns are destroyed. 7:4 The residence is destroyed in a minute. Papyrus 2:10 Forsooth, gates, columns and walls are consumed by fire. Exodus 9:23 The fire ran along the ground. There was hail, and fire mingled with the hail. Papyrus 4:14 Trees are destroyed. 6:1 No fruit or herbs are found. Exodus 9:25 And the hail smote every herb of the field, and brake every tree of the field. Papyrus 4:3 Forsooth, the children of princes are dashed against the walls. Exodus 12:27 (The Angel of the Lord) smote the Egyptians. Papyrus 9:11 The land is not light. Exodus 10:22 And there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt. There was no longer any royal power in Egypt. In the following weeks the cities turned into scenes of looting. Justice ceased to function. The catastrophe that rendered Egypt defenseless was a signal to the tribes of the Arabian desert. The Egyptians did not defend themselves.

Who civilized who? Exodus 2:11-15 "11 And it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, that he went out to his brothers, and looked on their burdens: and he spied an Egyptian smiting an Hebrew, one of his brothers. 12 And he looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no man, he slew the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand. 13 And when he went out the second day, behold, two men of the Hebrews strove together: and he said to him that did the wrong, Why smite you your fellow? 14 And he said, Who made you a prince and a judge over us? intend you to kill me, as you killed the Egyptian? And Moses feared, and said, Surely this thing is known. 15 Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and dwelled in the land of Midian: and he sat down by a well."
This passage tells us that Law existed prior to it being given/taught to the Hebrews on the stone tablets, for Moses knew that killing another man was punishable by death, why would he flee in the first place?. His fellow brethren also gives hint that Law existed when they questioned him "Who made you a prince and a judge over us?" . Does this suggest only Egyptians applied Law and Hebrews were not allowed to? and only after they left Egypt was the Law formally introduced? Below are 3 definitions of Judge a. To hear and decide on in a court of law. b. To pass sentence on; condemn. c. To act as one appointed to decide. The mere fact that there was flogging, confirms that those who received it, must have done something wrong which means a ruling took place. But I think they took it a little too far

But I think they took it a little too far I do not know if flogging a person till he or she bleeds is to be considered civilized, and were the laws just in the first place?? sometimes one could be flogged to get a confession out of a person would that be civilized or barbaric.

What is Government, can a nation be governed without Law? Everything within the context of what is coined "civilized" has its extremes. The very police that you call for help are in some instances accused of brutality. Law is what gives definition to an act, one cannot be flogged to get a confession, that is called torture, yet in a lawless society you can call it whatever you deem fit. What is suicide? what is murder? and what is assassination? How important does a person have to be, before being declared assassinated and not murdered? Maybe the question should be " Who acculturated who? "

Would love to see all this information put into a video. You have a lots to say on this subject which i sense has great validity . You might reach more with a well made, tight video, like Lashide4u ; just a suggestion

I understand and know the importance of multi-media but if our collective discourses (ES, ESR, Online institution etc) are to be taken seriously, we need to go beyond videos on Youtube (must admit, posting material there offer good publicity). The lack of physical evidence and resources is what propels most African-American researchers to go virtual and do almost everything online. Most displays at the Cradle of Human Kind have video installments, the physical evidence coupled with a video narrative has proven a powerful tool that changes a person's Worldview in general and compel scholars to revisit previous work and research. Refer to the Maropeng page for an example: Cradle of HumankindRefer to the place where I source most of my research material: National Museum of Cultural History: Ditsong

We live in a very media driven society, I would say even globally. You say taken seriously , by who ? Their are many who will not read a academic paper or book, but will watch a well made video or film . If one is trying to reach only those in the ivory towers of academia , than maybe not! But, if one is trying to reach a broad audience esp. the youth, than multi-media is the way to go. Now I know cost can be a factor, but a video camera now days are in the reach of many ; people who are very creative are using their smart phones to make small films ! With all the visuals you always include in your material with the wealth of information from your POV, it just seems logical the next step that you could take is video , that's, all I'm saying, may brother.

In a way difficult to explain "I see what you see" when you infer to video-documentation and respect your vision as to how it has the potential to be a game changer (taken seriously by our people, because the only time we begin to doubt ourselves and our discourses, is when our own people do not support us). My comment was not an attack but a hint as to how big Morolong Maropeng project is in South Africa, of which its main objective is to address the ignored and downplayed History of the Bantu. Surprisingly I share a lot with Asar Imhotep of which there is a possible collaboration in future because I am an artist and photo/videographer (Refer to a few of my work below). I don't know how to summarize the following but will try, I studied Communication Science at UNISA specializing in Multi-media and Art criticism & interpretation. I've presented a few video documentation and Art work on an academic level. As an artist, photo and videographer I use a 10 and 16 mega pixel BSI-CMOS sensor camera and my latest acquisition is a Drone with a 1080P Full HD Camera for aerial video and photography. Cost can be a factor especially when it comes to editing software (Adobe, etc.) Morolong Maropeng is still in its gestation period, the only thing I can do is to upload trailers of our documentaries but anyone who can put together a video presentation of the stuff already posted on ES and ESR is most welcome to do so. Broadcasting corporations seldomly purchase documentaries or valuable material that already appeared on WWW. Only after enough revenue has been generated it is when copyright laws become relaxed and the video uploaders do their handy wok. Remember multi-media platforms on the web is someone else's product for making money Although some refer to me as a Wildlife artist, I prefer to keep my options open because life is a dance
