Ozymandias

[Ol argedco luciftias]

I don't know if I am spelling this right. But there is a famous story that is supposedly copied from some old document that was found describing a man's adventure somewhere either in Egypt or close by. He found a piece of an ancient statue. The only thing left is the feet of the statue, and it is so large that the original statue must have been enormously tall. And a carving says "I am Ozymandias, king of kings."

I probably am getting some details wrong about this story, because it was years ago that I read it. And it is likely that the story is fictional anyway. But something makes me think that there is something powerful and important about this name Ozymandias. I think that this name is real, and the story was created as a way to bring this name back to people's attention.


The reason I'm talking about this is I was thinking about Asmodeus a lot this morning. And while I was thinking about him, the thought of this name Ozymandias came to me and I had the feeling that these are connected and related to each other. I wanted to ask what other people think.

Ramesses II

In ancient Greek sources, he is called Ozymandias, derived from the first part of his Egyptian-language regnal name: Usermaatre Setepenre. Ramesses was also referred to as the "Great Ancestor" by successor pharaohs and the Egyptian people.

I thought Ozymandias was Adolf Hitler. I'd like to know as well.

They even blaspheme him in works of fiction... curse these pathetic imbeciles to death....

When the time of realization comes, they will realize too late how stupid they all were.
