Site Objectives

 

Retrieving the architectonic cosmic knowledge, the mother of the ancient sciences, is the core objective of this site. This knowledge might expand the frontier of modern sciences far beyond its current domain. Many of the nowadays scholars recognized that the artifacts of the great ancient civilizations are, or might be, the outputs of excellent scientific knowledge; however, the basics of its mathematical ideology is still unknown or misunderstood. If we succeeded to retrieve their ancient mathematics, it might benefit our development path, either here on earth or elsewhere, or to lead us to better understand the architecture of the spherical orbs that where in we live.

In short, we need to understand the architectonic ideology of the ancient civilizations. How had they observed and understood the cosmic architectonic laws? i.e., the laws of God in nature, and that whereupon they established their various thoughts and scientific doctrines, e.g., on architecture, astronomy, mathematics, geometry, language, arts, and music. These are the prime-research subjects that this site includes.

Besides, as man live on earth he creates and develops the economic technique for his life that goes side by side with the development of his scientific knowledge, improving his welfare level. Without doubt, economics, sciences and arts were the engines for developing and accenting the long-lasting physical identities of the great ancient civilizations; they, together, produced the great architectures in the ideal and safe places on earth.

The architectonic contents of this site are the outputs of many years of serious and multidisciplinary studies; you may find some of these contents do not follow the nowadays streams of thoughts. The reader who has a great deal of knowledge on the ancient philosophy of man, like those of the Pythagorean or the Platonic schools of thought, will find it very interesting, leading him to enter-into the amazing world of the ancient architectonicians.

Thanks to the great ancient Egyptian architectonician who coded geometrically all his architectonic knowledge in the pyramids of Egypt. His statue is standing there in his horizon, denoting the musical note La Major, today we call him Sphinx; in the Ancient Egyptian tongue, it was pronounced as "Be-hol". It is the statue of the Falcon of the Mighty God that was pronounced as Hor-Mageed-Don; its name in hieroglyphs is here below.

STUDENTS PROJECTS ON MEGALITHIC ARCHITECTURE

FACULTY OF FINE ARTS AT MINIA UNIVERSITY

 

One of the strange but somehow an amazing experience for both the students of architecture  and their educators alike,  is when you ask the students to imagine that he, or she,  is the architect of one of the great Kings of ancient Egypt. It is like asking them to travel in time and reach a moment in a great golden past. To them, the ultimate scenario of that image was not only like entering into the anonymous realm of any of the great Utopias,  which is more real than the Plato's Republic, but was  supported by an incentive background, which was by convincing each of them that he or she is the master of the architectonic thoughts in those ancient days. At the beginning, the question of what are the design rules that one should respect, did arise, leading to a state of confusion among the students, because in this case, the standards for interpreting the traditions of the ancient society, in for example 1500 years BC, never was part of any publication in the field of architecture or its allied disciplines.  Besides, leaving aside any talk on achieving the greatness in terms of monumental scales and imitating the golden proportions from any of the still standing architectonic references, understanding the megalithic building construction techniques was another stumbling block at the beginning of this practice. After a month or so, they started to produce, after they did a field-research and found out the likely convincing answers; see below, a sample from that imaginative Megalithic practice.

 

 

Hossam Aboulfotouh's C.V., in brief.

 

Hossam Aboulfotouh, is a Development Policies Planner and Architectonician, i.e., who links the philosophy of basic sciences with architecture, he holds PhD in Development Policies (Cairo University 1997), MA in Urban Management/Economics (Erasmus University 1993), MSc. in Urban Design (Cairo University 1990), and BSc. in Architecture (Helwan University 1983). His researches focuses on the architectonic mathematics, architectonic cosmic theories, pyramids design philosophy, strategic planning and development policies. He was the team leader of the UNDP project “Rehabilitation of Historic Cairo-1997”; and currently he is the director of the “Strategic Planning Project for Makkah”, director of the UIA Work Programme “Architecture and Heritage”, Region-V, and teaches at the Department of Architecture, Faculty of Fine Arts, Minia University.
