Most of us would like to know what really happened in the past, how the people of that time lived, what they thought, and what they believed in.
We do not have all the answers to most of these questions. However, especially after the latest discoveries of old documents in Egypt and elsewhere, our knowledge has increased, books that were thought to have been destroyed for ever came to light again, and some answers can be given.
This Lexicon will not fully satisfy the curiosity of its readers but it
is hoped that it will provide some indications and incites other people
to continue the research.
