thanks toHorus FoundationThe H.O.R.U.S. Foundation (Herodotus Original Research Using Science) is an American non-profit organization founded by Frank Clark (US) and Mark Beaver (Australia). The foundation assembled experts and state-of-the-art technologies from the aerospace industry to maximize archaeologic research, in relation to the written records of Herodotus. The Horus foundation contributed to the geophysic survey with providing the NRIAG logistical support to obtain the Supreme Council of Antiquity permission to scan at Hawara.Golden Sun DiskThe Mataha-expedition team wants to thank all people who funded the project with the acquisition of a Golden Sun Disk for the encouraging support. Gratefulness to art curator Andree van de Kerckhove for the organisation of the labyrinth exhibition (Tabularium #05 CBK Delft), and the production of the first Golden Sun Disk.Leuven UniversityGratitude to Prof. Dr. Willy Clarysse & Dr. Inge Uyterhoeven (archaeologist), the team-leaders of the "Hawara 2000 surface survey” for their interest, practical information and help in the research of the Hawara history.Association Egyptologique Reine ElisabethMany thanks to the AERE Board of directors for their human network support. The Association Egyptologique Reine Elisabeth was founded in memory of the Belgian Queen Elisabeth's visit to the tomb of Tutankhamun, on February 18, 1923. Its main purpose was to stimulate egyptological and papyrological research in Belgium. Over the years the association has become a scholarly institution, which promotes the study of the history and civilisation of Pharaonic, Graeco-Roman and Christian Egypt.UNESCOMany thanks for the encouraging UNESCO presence on the workshop in Cairo, and hopefully the future support of Hawara. The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization seeks to encourage the identification, protection and preservation of cultural and natural heritage around the world considered to be of outstanding value to humanity. This is embodied in an international treaty called the Convention concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage.Isel FoundationMany thanks to Peter Cooreman and Ilse Adam of the Isel foundation for the personal support. The Isel Foundation is a private foundation situated in Merelbeke, Belgium. The foundation publishes its own Isel magazine, but is in the first place a cultural platform where artists, cultural organisations and companies meet and are promoted. The foundation supported the Mataha-project by organizing several Labyrinth lectures, bringing the right people together to start the project’s realization.Gino RatinckxMany thanks to Gino Ratinckx for his research as a graduated civil engineer, astronomer and archaeologist, regarding the archaeoastronomical localisation of the labyrinth of Egypt. Since more than a decade Gino Ratinckx developed a system to position and sometimes even to date architectural antiquities in relation to the movements of the earth. In this way he geo-positioned the labyrinth based on the astronomic location of the Hyades star cluster in the constellation of Taurus. Archaeoastronomical situated besides the pyramid of Hawara, which represents Aldebaran, the brightest star of the Taurus constellation.Patrick GerylThe Mataha-expedition should not been possible without the help of author and independent researcher Patrick Geryl. Since many years Patrick Geryl researched the labyrinth of Egypt. In his book the Orion Prophecy, he launched the importance of the labyrinth situated at Hawara. Ever since he has been promoting an archaeological expedition. Patrick Geryl introduced Louis De Cordier to the Egyptian National Research Institute of Astronomy and Geophysics on the 17th December 2007 in Cairo. Opening the way to the effective realisation in Egypt. In his books, Patrick Geryl continues his scientific analysis with the millennia-old codes of the Maya and Egyptians. He determines that both cultures arose from a lost civilization, which was able to calculate pole shifts and that we should take very seriously their calculations, that place the next reversal in 2012. Geryl expects in his books that the labyrinth of Egypt will contain the Circle of Gold, the forgotten hall of records of this ancient civilization, as a message for humanity.
