The Gosford Glyphs
There is much, much more than meets the eye, when it comes to Australia’s forgotten history and I experienced this first hand, on a visit in 2014 to the inexplicable site of the Gosford Glyphs on the Central Coast of New South Wales, an hour north of Sydney.
Well hidden in a beautiful, yet unremarkable Australian bush setting, overlooking the scenic Brisbane Waters and not far from the small town of Kariong, you will find a cluster of approximately three hundred Egyptian hieroglyphs carved on two parallel sandstone rock panels and a third, a short distance away. This sight is so out of place; literally the last thing you expect to see as you descend into a narrow space between two imposing walls, that it begs the question; ‘Did the ancient Egyptians journey to Australia?’
My first visit to this extraordinary site was guided by Australian father and son research team, Steve and Evan Strong. I found myself among several other international researchers, local Elders and fellow truth seekers, as we walked the long track toward the site, clapping our hands to alert the spirits of the land of our presence. In honour of local tradition, we also ‘smoked’ ourselves in the aromatic fumes of dry eucalyptus leaves and said a small prayer in honour of the ancestral lineage of the place.
My first impression, as we neared the site, was a tangible and sudden hush, as if the atmosphere had densified somehow and I had a feeling of anticipation, as we approached the overarching presence of a gigantic Angophora Cosata, affectionately known as the ‘Grandmother Tree’.
Finally, one by one, we clambered down into the crevice between the two walls and, upon regaining our composure, looked wide eyed with wonder at the sight before our eyes.
The academic interest excited by these glyphs over the years, has been limited to a decisive debunking of claims that the hieroglyphs are genuine relics of an ancient Egyptian voyage to Australia. Yet many an unconventional Australian, including the Strongs’, Colin Hayter and Rex Gilroy, have spent decades probing into the mystery. Highly esteemed authors and researchers such as Graham Hancock, Michael Tellinger, David Hatcher Childress and Klaus Dona have all come to experience the indelible mystery for themselves.
So, what is the story written on the walls?
That would depend largely upon who you ask, but the basic translation relates
a story about two sons of the great King Khufu; two princes, Nefer-Djeseb and Nefer-Ti-Ru, whose ship ran aground. Nefer-Ti-Ru was bitten twice by a snake and died. The glyphs state that he was entombed right there in the rocky outcrops of the Australian bush near modern Gosford, 4500 years ago.
I have visited the site no less than four times with Steve and Evan Strong and the more time I spend there, the very many layers of this complex story begin to unfold. Three narratives from the three different panels, touching on DNA manipulation and the creation of life, string theory and a connection of Pleiadean origin.
Also, energetically, the site forms a vitally important ‘Rainbow Bridge’ connecting Australia with certain sites in New Zealand, which are to be activated in December this year in a ceremony for world peace.
I’ve also spent much time with Colin Hayter over the years, a carpenter from the southern Gold Coast who, through a series of inexplicable synchronicities, came to learn to read ProtoEgyptian ideogram text and paleo graphics. He found himself, quite accidentally, after setting off on a dark night on a quest inspired by a visitation by an Aboriginal man named Didi, between the walls and among the glyphs, never having heard about them before!
Colin is deeply engaged with the great Dreaming of the Land. He speaks poetically about the sacred land of Bambarra, the Place of the Beginning, of which Kariong is a part, as the common ground for all Original tribes. His translation of the glyphs is of a great love story, which extends from Egypt to Australia and back again. It includes incredible corroborations and discoveries he has personally made in Australia and in the Egyptian Isis Temple and Indus Valley.
Regardless of which theory grabs your attention, there is no doubt that the glyphs have become part of the belief stories of a growing number of people, both locally and globally. They are part of the complex understanding of a very different reality, one in which Australia becomes the new Indus Valley, the Pharaohs walked in Woy Woy and the local area gains centrality in the spiritual understanding of its people.
