About Jonathan Meader & Barbara Demeter

Barbara and I spent the last 13 years searching for the sources and meanings of ancient Egyptian symbols. Our research focused on the two ancient Egyptian Sacred Waterlilies, ancient Egyptian symbolism, and the three primary Egyptian funerary texts – all ancient sources. We’ve traveled to Egypt many times, and to museums in Europe and the US to study and photograph the ancient symbols. We discovered the sources and meanings of more than 50 ancient Egyptian symbols, including Seth’s mysterious head, the Eye of Horus, 10 major crowns, and the symbolic foundations of Osirian mythology, the backbone of ancient Egyptian religion for more than 2000 years.

I’m an artist (jmeader.com), and I lived in Lebanon and Morocco as a teenager. Barbara is a business consultant, specializing in the mortgage and banking industries.
