They rewrote the history books after the fall of the Holy Roman Empire.
...the GHC went after the first ancient books, starting with the histories of the Greeks, who they claimed couldn't write.
Their approach was that since the HRE was not telling the truth and had suggested as reading material, the Greeks and Romans, that any text related to a supernatural being in any way from the Greeks and Romans was false.
Armed with this information, they opted to make the ancient Egyptians the only viable ancient civ on which to base the passage of time.
Could you explain why you're making this connection? I'm really confused here

Byrd,
you said:
Actually, they are constantly rewriting history as new documents and monuments are discovered. History books have changed considerably in the past 50 years alone.
my response:
okay, let me show you what i mean by analogy. let's say you were raised in a household who believed a certain religious creed. would you, or would you not, be influenced by that belief system?
here's another example - when dating an artifact from a particular geological strata, it is auto-assumed that any prior dating of that strata is sufficient and that any artifacts found in that strata that are inconsistent with the prior dating, are contaminated and summarily thrown away.
once upon a time, the histories of the ancients were viewed as real events. this is no longer true. instead, because of the GHC, we now regard our ancestors as a bunch of lunatics, drug addicts or power hungry priests, given to delusions, superstitions, manias or other psychological problems -- across the board and across the races.
The egyptian gods are fairy tales (except if they're pharaohs). The hebrew god is a fairy tale. the christian god is a fairy tale. the chinese gods are fairy tales. the hindu gods are fairy tales

Let me prove my point with this one salient piece of information: Osiris wasn't dead until he died. He was apparently, alive, before he died. He was married to Isis, before he died.
Ishtar is Semiramis who married her son and had another son Tammuz

Or more specificially, Osiris isn't a myth. He was a real, historical person. The Osirieon was built in his honor while he was still alive.

Isis was the sister of Osiris who she married. They had a son, Horus.
Isis is Ishtar
Ishtar is Semiramis who married her son and had another son Tammuz.
Horus is Tammuz.
Hercules is Tammuz.

Seti I's temple at Abydos is oddly shaped like an "L". Why? Because he ran smack into the Osirieon where it lay hidden for a very long time, buried under the sand, while excavating for his own temple His temple had to make a turn, thusly the odd L shape.

. Inana's trek to the underworld is an attempt to save her beloved and is the same thing as Isis saving Osiris from "his water", where he had drowned in the "abyss" (which is really in the "abzu" known as the underworld), after which, he enters the portals of the Lords of Eternity (the abzu gate). The same thing you see happening in the story of Leander and Hero (with a single instance of gender reversal), where Leander swims the sea (the abyss, the abzu) to Abydos to reach Hero.
Isis is Inana, so the story is alot longer than egyptology has suggested

That's the hallway extending from the main chamber (the Osirieon proper) from the Chamber A.
