	Aker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		In Egyptian mythology, Aker (also spelt Akar) was one of the earliest gods worshipped, and was the deification of the horizon.
		Also, as all who had died had to pass Aker, it was said that Aker annulled the causes of death, such as extracting the poison from any snakes that had bitten the deceased, or from any scorpions that had stung them.
		Aker had no temples of his own like the main gods in the Egyptian religion, since he was more connected to the primeval concepts of the very old earth powers.

	Raymond Aker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Raymond Aker (March 10, 1920– January 4, 2003) was a U.S. historian who was noted as an authority on the voyages of Francis Drake in the late 16th century.
		Aker maintained that the cove geography was cyclic over decades, and in 2001 he correctly predicted the reemergence of a spit in the cove which he claimed closely matched the contemporary accounts of Drake's landing spot.
		Aker also became convinced that the partial remains of Drake's ship the Golden Hinde, are buried at the old Deptford Navy Yard along the Thames in east London.
