Study of Alfonso Rubino
Meryatum's Tomb
In the famous work “Description de l’Égypte”, result of the scientific mission wished by the Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte during the 1795 Egypt campaign, is reproduced a painting of Meryatum’s tomb, placed in the famous Kings’ Valley.
Meryatum was the Great Priest of Heliopolis’ Temple and son of Ramses II.
In this painting are depicted two symmetrical slopes up, opposed to each other, with 6 men on the left and 6 men on the right, who are climbing. Between the two slopes up there’s an empty space.
In this empty space there is a long snake that has 6 knots, arranged from up to down and recurring twice on the left and twice on the right, compared to the vertical axis of the painting.
After the first observation you can see that the global figure is contained in a rectangle 2X7 and that the two slopes up have are leaning 2 out of 7.
The central gap suggests to consider at the centre of the figure a square whose side is 2 per 2.
By putting inside this square a particular intersection with the Sacred Triangle : 3 - 4 – 5, you can see a global geometrical expression that justifies, in a very accurate way, the anthropological vertical measures of each of the 12 human figures.
But these geometrical levels correspond exactly to the relationships of the 7 notes componing the eighth of the Diatonic Natural Scale.
Thanks to this discovery, we can affirm that Pythagoras and other ancient Greeks, have simply applied the harmonic rules of the sacred Geometry of the Egyptian Priests to set the length of the harp’s chords, strating then the pleasantness of the music created.
By observing the longitudinal section of St.Galgano’s Abbey you can see that also here the rectangle 2 per 7 is present.
The inner architectural elements allow to extract a geometrical synthesis of the composition that, as you can see from the drawings, is identical to the geometrical model of the painting of Meryatum’s Tomb.
I think that this discovery proves even more that the Cistercian monks knew the harmonic geometrical rules of the Ancient Egypt.
Maybe these codes reached the monks, as the legend says, thanks to the documents that the Templars brought to Europe from Jerusalem.
