	Historical Writings
		Cambyses, by the advice of a certain Egyptian, who was angry with Amasis for having torn him from his wife and children and given him over to the Persians, had sent a herald to Amasis to ask his daughter in marriage.
		Therefore the Egyptian bore Amasis a grudge, and his reason for urging Cambyses to ask the hand of the king's daughter was, that if he complied, it might cause him annoyance; if he refused, it might make Cambyses his enemy.
		The Egyptians, however, claim Cambyses as belonging to them, declaring that he was the son of this Nitetis.

	Belschazzar
		Belus is also at the court, having revealed his true identity to the King - he was a royal scribe and astrologer of the Royal Household of Babylon, and priest of Marduk and of Ischtar, as well as being a son of Nebuchadnazzar and so a close a relative of the King.
		Belus stays with various influential priests, astrologers and others, and ferments opposition to King Belschazzar, which isn't difficult since he is widely seen as a tyrant - and his war with Cyrus of Persia is going badly.
		As usual the character of Belus acts at once as advisor and counsellor to Ramose, and as the conduit much of the story to the reader - and as is often the case there is much of Haggard himself in the character.

		Egyptian Christians believe that the Patriarchate of Alexandria was founded by Mark the Evangelist around 33, but little is known about how Christianity entered Egypt.

		This caused many of the Egyptians round him to frown, especially those that were old or wedded to ancient ways which had come down to them through thousands of years, who hated the Greeks with their new fashions, their language and all that had to do with them.
		Belus learned this from spies whom we had taken, but who, it seemed, belonged to some secret brotherhood of which he was a chief.

		But there are those who deny this, saying that Cadmus' daughter Semele was violated in Egyptian Thebes, where Cadmus lived, and that Cadmus, in order to avert slander from his outraged daughter, said that her son was the son of Zeus, and not, as he really was, the son of an unknown rapist.
		And they add that, as this son was then identified with Osiris, the Egyptian god, many generations later Orpheus found it convenient to say that Osiris was Dionysus, thus instituting new rites for the son of Zeus and Semele.

		It is regarded as the source of the river Belus [Nahr-Halu], which, after a course of five miles, falls into the Mediterranean not far from the colony of Ptolemais.

		But before chance taught them to utilize the fine sand on the banks of the Belus and to manufacture from it that fine transparent glass so much vaunted by ancieint authors, the Phœnicians had borrowed from their neighbours the Egyptians and Assyrians the art of employing vitrifiable matter as enamel.

		Kothar is of Egyptian origin, as Poseidon is a Greek variant of the Semitic Sidon, and is a Syrian duplicate of Ptah.
		As for Belus, the Greek Sun God, he is shown to be the Greek equivalent of the Bible's Baal or Baali, the Bel of the Apocrypha's "Bel and the Dragon".
		The evidence in support of this is, that Belus was the vanquisher of the matriarch Belili, from whom he obtained his victor's name, Beli, probably at this time, changing his name Helios to Bel.

	The Two Babylons: The Child in Assyria
		Ninus is said to have been the son of Belus or Bel, and Bel is said to have been the founder of Babylon.
		Thus, then, looking at the fact that Ninus is currently made by antiquity the son of Belus, or Bel, when we have seen that the historical Bel is Cush, the identity of Ninus and Nimrod is still further confirmed.
		As the genuine copies of Eusebius do not admit of any Belus, as an actual king of Assyria, prior to Ninus, king of the Babylonians, and distinct from him, that shows that Ninus, the first king of Babylon, was Kronos.

		Herodotus mentions that when in Egypt, he was astonished to hear the very same mournful but ravishing "Song of Linus," sung by the Egyptians (although under another name), which he had been accustomed to hear in his own native land of Greece.
		Gregory attributes to Cush what was said more generally to have befallen his son; but his statement shows the belief in his day, which is amply confirmed from other sources, that Cush had a pre-eminent share in leading mankind away from the true worship of God.
