Labirynt

Istnieją przekazy o zaginionym labiryncie, w którym podobno przechowywana jest cała wiedza starożytnego Egiptu.
Starożytny grecki historyk Herodot opisał w 5 wieku p.n.e. kolosalną świątynię zawierającą 3,000 pokoi pełnych hieroglifów i obrazów.
Herodot nie był jedynym historykiem, który opisywał ten labirynt. Olbrzymia świątynia została opisana przez wielu klasyków, w tym Manethon Aegyptiaca (3 rd w. p.n.e.), Diodor Sycylijski (1-szy wiek p.n.e.), Pliniusz (23-79 n.e.) i Pomponiusz Mela (c 43 AD), i co najmniej dwóch z nich twierdziło, że widzieli labirynt na własne oczy.

The lost labyrinth of egypt is believed to contain all knowledge of ancient Egypt.
"This I have actually seen, a work beyond words. For if anyone put together the buildings of the Greeks and display of their labours, they would seem lesser in both effort and expense to this labyrinth… Even the pyramids are beyond words, and each was equal to many and mighty works of the Greeks. Yet the labyrinth surpasses even the pyramids."
These are the words of ancient Greek historian Herodotus written in the 5th century BC, describing a colossal temple said to contain 3,000 rooms full of hieroglyphs and paintings. It was named ‘Labyrinth’ by the Greeks after the complex maze of corridors designed by Daedalus for King Minos of Crete, where the legendary Minotaur dwelt. Yet today, nothing remains of this supposedly grand temple complex – at least not on the surface. The mighty labyrinth became lost to the pages of history.
Herodotus was not the only historian to describe the labyrinth of ancient Egypt. The massive temple complex was described by many classic authors, including Manetho Aegyptiaca (3rd century BC), Diodorus Siculus (1st century BC), Strabo (64 BC – 19 AD), Pliny (23 – 79 AD), and Pomponius Mela (c 43 AD), and at least two of whom claimed to have seen the labyrinth first-hand.
