I need a picture of people worshiping a floating object (details inside).

Asked by XOIIO (18328points) January 13th, 2010

I need that picture that has egyptians/mayans worshiping something floating in the sky. It looks like it would be drawn on a temple wall. Hope this makes sense.

Look for art from the Amarna period in Egyptian history. That’s when the pharaoh, Akhenaten, changed the main religion to worship of the sun disk, the Aten.

How about a few thousand words about the topic? That should be the equal of a picture, right? At the rate of 1000 words to the picture it should be.

@delirium, nice of you to help XOIIO.

@delirium It’s close, but the one I remember was in color and painted onto the wall, and people were on their knees on either side. I was a daerked red/brown motix, although I guess that one could work, but it would be much more difficult.

It couldn’t have been Hindu? Brahma or Vishnu?

Ok, not trying to be sarcastic. Are you sure of where you saw it? Because it sounds like that movie Stargate. Wasn’t there a picture like the one you describe?

@oriato I’m pretty sure it’s one of the two I mentioned.

@trillian Not sure, but I have seen it several times. I know it wasn’t stargate thought. I never watch it because we don’t get it.

@XOIIO I’m talking about the original movie. I never have seen the series.
