Fifteen 15 years ago ... THE PHOENIX UNVEILED !!

Fifteen years have now passed since that September 22nd-23rd, 2006, when I made known my discovery that the mythical animal bennu/phoenix was nothing else than the allegorical image of the rare multiple (triple/double) conjunction between the two giant planets of the solar system, Saturn and Jupiter, the old time god (the father) and the new one (the son).

It happened during the VI Annual Meeting of the S.I.A. - Società Italiana di Archeoastronomia which took place on Sept. 22-23, 2006 in Campobasso, Italy, at the Università del Molise, where I presented and discussed a lecture with the title:

"LA FENICE SVELATA, dimostrazione della natura astronomica di un mito millenario."  
 

Taken from the official ATTI del VI Congresso di Archeoastronomia, Storia dell' Astronomia Antica, Astronomia culturale e Astronomia Storica,

here are the 11 pages of my at-this-point historical lecture:

Very soon after this congress I was then able to demonstrate that the phoenix had a complementary myth, i.e. the unicorn myth, concerned with the more common unique or single Jupiter-Saturn conjunction. 

The whole discovery I made then newly known in Liverpool in 2008 and in Berlin in 2009, at the F.I.E.C. (Federation International des associations d'Etudes Classiques) - Kongress.
