Résumé

The Benben Stone is one of the most important and least understood artifacts in ancient history. Revered as the first solid form to emerge at the dawn of creation, it became the foundation of Egyptian religion, the inspiration for the pyramids, and the ultimate symbol of the sun's eternal power. This book offers a clear and compelling exploration of the Benben's origins in the temples of Heliopolis, its role in the rise of the pharaohs, and the way its distinctive shape influenced sacred architecture for more than three thousand years.
Using archaeological evidence, ancient texts, and modern research, it follows the story of the original stone - now lost - and examines how its meaning survived through pyramidions and obelisks designed to catch the first light of every new day. Accessible, informative, and written for both new readers and dedicated history enthusiasts, this is an engaging introduction to the symbol that shaped Egypt's greatest monuments and defined the spiritual worldview of one of the world's most remarkable civilizations.
The Benben Stone did not simply mark the beginning of creation - it laid the foundation for everything Egypt became.
