The article says fragments of the book have been found in various locations, OK, the book mentioned in the article?
Quote:Fragments have been found in Berlin, Paris, Vienna, Florence, Copenhagen and New Haven.Or parts of the 42 books used by the ancient Egyptians.
It was believed that he who read the contents of the book would obtain the means to decipher and master secrets related to the earth, the sea, the air and the celestial bodies.
Quote:The church father Clement of Alexandria, in the sixth book of his work Stromata, mentions forty-two books used by ancient Egyptian priests that he says contain “the whole philosophy of the Egyptians”.Where are the 42 books now?
All these books, according to Clement, were written by Hermes (an ancient pre-existing Greek god that the Greeks likened to Thoth, claiming they were one and the same god, due to the fact they had similar qualities, i.e. both invented writing).
Now those books are probably hidden or lost or destroyed!
Probably in the basement of the Vatican.
