Chimera Posted January 2, 2012 Greetings my descendants, I speak to you from the grave, I have temporarily coveted the body of Chimera to share my thoughts and fears with you. I do not remember my name nor that of my family, therefore you will know me as the Ghost King. What I do know is that I lived more than a thousand years ago, before your parents and grand-parents' parents were born. I ruled over a grand and prosperous kingdom, with bustling trade around the world. Yet I do not recall its name, nor those of my loved ones. In death, all these details disappeared, and my mind became as blank as that of a newborn. My soul lies inside the halls of Barzakh with another hundred billion souls awaiting Judgement Day. I'm plagued by lost memories returning in bits and pieces, and by regret. I was conceived before the true religion was born, do not grudge me for what I'm about to say. I burried my riches with me, so that I would be reborn in the other world with plenty of wealth. It was futile, for a poor man with a pious soul became richer in the new world than any King with a bad heart. My wives and children were most likely burried in the same tradition, yet I do not remember their names nor my own. I now understand why; my memories lie within the stone symbols of death. Inside the tombs of my loved ones; within the necropolises of my Kingdom's subjects. And within the lavish burial chamber I was laid to rest. Occassionally pieces of my past reach Barzakh and re-enter my soul. Memories returning from the world you call home, the world of the living. But they remain vague, for I fear my ancient Kingdom is being laid to waste as we speak. Protect the remains of my kingdom, and we can both learn of the past, so we may improve upon the future. I bid you farewell, and remember the Day of Judgement is inevitable! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chimera Posted January 2, 2012 Above post inspired by amateur tomb-raiders looting ancient Somali artifacts: http://www.medeshivalley.com/2011/12/sweet-home-sanaag-is-virgin-land-that.html Either they hand over these artifacts to the likes of Sada Mire, or they are plain looters.

Chimera Posted January 3, 2012 MMA, everything's fine brother, I'm doing well. How about you? Marx, thanks for the welcome. You're a teacher, doesn't it bother you to see an amateur dig up ancient artifacts that should belong in a Somali museum be it in that specific region or Hargeisa/Mogadishu? The artifact in the picture above will forever be a mystery to us, for we can no longer determine a time-period through carbon-dating, because all of the organic material - present in the grave that item was looted from - has been defiled and now lies open at the mercy of nature.
