<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Alegandron, post: 4939808, member: 51347&quot;]Thank you for posting site.&nbsp; I saw this in a Nova daily email, but had not got around to watching.&nbsp; It is an incredible production.&nbsp; Easy to follow, succinct, and credible.&nbsp; Really enjoyed it!</p><p><br /></p><p>Being dyslexic myself, it was easy for me to visualize the changes in letters, however, always tied back to the original symbol.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>My only question was that Humans always see / write in two dimensions, when we are actually in a three-dimension physical world.&nbsp; Interesting that we could never leap to that complexity.&nbsp; (Research is finding that the dyslexic mind is highly spatial, and why our minds/thoughts/ideas may come from a different direction from non-dyslexic minds. Some cool work at Indiana University.)</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1187376[/ATTACH]</p><p>Egypt,</p><p>21st Dynasty,</p><p>Pharoah Neterkheperre aka Netjerkherre-setepanamun Siamun,</p><p>986 - 967 BC</p><p>Scarab reading &quot;Si-Amen&quot;</p><p>measuring 16x11mm.</p><p>Ex DeVries Collection.</p><p><br /></p><p>For reference, see:</p><p>George Fraser, A Catalog of Scarabs Belonging to George Fraser, pg. 41, #329, Plate XII.</p><p>George Fraser, Catalogue of Egyptian Scarabs, Etc. in the British Museum, Volume I, Royal Scarabs, pg. 239, #2385-9.</p><p>E.
