Makes sense to me. I bet Egyptians went all kinds of places. They were a very highly structured society, into mathamatics, astronomy, sun and moon movements. I do not know why they would not have sailed further into the Medditeranean than previously thought. I was just reading the post that there was much more to Stonehenge than we had previously thought. I suspect these ancient people were not as dumb as we would like to think sitting in our 21st century pedestal.

Yup. Our knowledge base has risen to great heights numerous times. I think catastrophies have knocked them back many times. We're probably due for a good knock now.
