Ancient Egyptian Royal Motifs; as referencing P. cubensis - Audio Edition: by Nicklas B. Failla

ABSTRACT:
The motif of the sacred scarab (dung beetle) symbol is a distinctly predominating theme in ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs and amulets. The ancient Egyptians even depicted the dung beetle as a religious deity known as “Khepri”. Its prevalence as sacred imagery has been ill explained by past Archaeologists and Egyptologists. Many historical explanations of the divinity attributed to this beetle have been based upon assumptions that the Dynasties of ancient Egypt had “misunderstood” the biology of beetle, and that it was this “misunderstanding” which led the Egyptians to keep the beetle in such high esteems. Secondary research which was triggered by newly discovered evidence obtained and presented by scholars on the newly discovered Genus of Psilocybin mushrooms, offers possible explanations to more probable motives behind ancient Egyptian’s use of the sacred scarab symbol.
