Earlier we wrote that the independent researcher Zhumabek Sadykov found the burial place of Alexander the Great.
The essence of this, paradoxical at first glance, historical discovery is that Zhumabek discovered Alexander the Great among the mummies already found in Egypt.
Zhumabek Sadykov.
The researchers did not pay attention to the amazing metamorphosis: Alexander the Great was mistaken for another, unknown king in the richest tomb in the world. The mummy of Alexander under an assumed name became a national treasure and a symbol of Egypt.
A year later, Zhumabek contacted the editorial staff of the Caravan kz media portal and said: the work on the book was completed, that now he has a mass of evidence indicating that he is right, that the tomb of Tutankhamun is the place where the body of the great commander rests.
- The fact is that after the article was published in "CARAVAN", - Zhumabek begins his story, - I turned to the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Kazakhstan, found support there in the person of F. M. Shamshidenova. This is a leading researcher at the Institute of History and Ethnology named after Ch. Ch. Valikhanova, candidate of historical sciences, associate professor, she taught Egyptology at KazNU. At first, she, like many, was skeptical about this. Only a year later, after I presented substantial evidence, she confessed that she believed me and was actively helping.
I have been digging for a whole year, looking for evidence, re-reading many books and scientific papers …
- It turns out that you have derived this hypothesis based only on some of your medical knowledge?
Promotional video:
- No, why not. The work contains 100 proofs, including the results of DNA research, postmortem analysis, analysis of historical artifacts, testimony of witnesses. One of the unsolved archaeological mysteries is the lost tomb of Alexander the Great. The "grail" of archaeologists who searched 140 international expeditions in Egypt.
My scientific work radically changes the basic postulates of history and will produce a new scientific revolution in the history of Egypt, antiquity, world history, and give impetus to new discoveries. Our young republic has not yet known discoveries of such a scale. And it will surely shake the world.
- You wrote a book, what's next?
- At the very beginning of work on the book, I thought that I would publish it and sell it, but now I am inclined to distribute it for free.
I think that in order to speed up the process of world recognition, it is necessary to organize a large-scale scientific conference. To invite to Kazakhstan specialists in antiquity from Greece, Italy, Russia, Great Britain and, of course, Egyptologists from Egypt, for example, a media personality - an archaeologist, historian of Ancient Egypt, Dr. Zaha Hawass. He is a very respected scientist, his every statement is broadcast by the world media. And after the experts know about it, the whole world will know about it.
While for many my words sound funny, it makes me sad, because I know that I am right.
- I just mean that there are, as it were, a lot of such, relatively speaking, “freaks” who can attribute any historical person or biblical character to the Kazakh family …
- Yes, I understand. But all these people declare this unfounded, this is a completely different story, it is unpleasant for me when I am compared with such people.
As evidence, I cite footage that I personally did while in Egypt, and I prove my statement based on scientific works, and so on.
For example, the so-called ark of Tutankhamun. Photo of the "flexible shell" from the tomb of Tutankhamun.
The part with metal scales has been preserved. Tutankhamun is a battle-hardened warrior, not a sickly boy, according to new research.
Alexander the Great is depicted wearing linothorax. Mosaic from Pompeii. Linothorax is an ancient Greek shell made of linen fabric with metal scales. "On the first of these boards, there is a relief depicting a seated Alexander holding a scepter."
"The second plaque that followed the bodyguards depicted elephants being built for battle."
"Ships made for sea battle" Diodorus.
"The sarcophagus stood under a canopy - a cloth on which items made of precious metals and precious stones were attached, imitating the starry sky." Diodorus.
Inside the massive "sanctuary" in the burial chamber, a huge linen cover with gold rosettes and embroidered with sequins is attached to wooden cornices, reminiscent of the night sky by G. Carter.
Carter calls glitter what Diodorus calls precious stones.
"On top of Alexander's sarcophagus lay a magnificent red robe with gold embroidery." Diodorus.
G. Carter removes the red cloth from Tutankhamun's sarcophagus.
Emperor Caracalla - left on Alexander's sarcophagus, a tunic, a gold ring.
The first photograph of Tutankhamun's sarcophagus.
Octavian Augustus, when visiting the tomb of Alexander, in Egypt, laid a wreath of flowers on the sarcophagus. He also damaged the nose of Alexander's mummy.
Tutankhamun's diadem.
I believe that because of this diadem, Alexander was called "two-horned".
- Even on the Internet there is information that Alexander the Great was accused of sodomy … Can you confirm or deny this fact? You must have come across this kind of speculation …
- You, like many others, judge by the film "Alexander" directed by Oliver Stone with Colin Farrell in the title role.
There is a hint of this in this film, but I personally would not like to tarnish the personality of Alexander the Great.
After all, Alexander the Two-horned (al-Iskander dû-l-Karnayni - r-Rûmiy) is a character of the Koran (chapter "The Cave"). In my book, I touch on this topic a little and write about the commander as a person of high moral principles, and there is evidence of this too. I am of the opinion that Alexander is a prophet of God.
- Did you happen to find such information that the Macedonian, purely hypothetically, could leave descendants on the territory of Kazakhstan?
- According to official data, he had several heirs, they were all killed so that there were no applicants for the throne.
He, of course, visited the territory of modern Kazakhstan, but for the descendants of Kazakhs, no, this is unlikely.
- Why you? The whole world overlooked this, but did you manage?
- The Almighty shows unlimited generosity, he bestows whomever he wishes, without any measure.
The history of science is full of cases of phenomenal short-sightedness even among great scientists. Their delusions were later refuted by the very development of science and technology.
