Kain (Cain) Depicted Killing Abel on the Parthenon?

  ANNAPOLIS, MD.- Did ancient Greek artists depict Kain (Cain) killing
Abel on their most glorious temple, the Parthenon? Yes, according to
Robert Bowie Johnson, Jr., author of "The Parthenon Code: Mankind's
History in Marble," new from Solving Light Books.

Johnson's book relates that the story of Kain killing Abel appeared on
four square sculpted panels in the center of the south side of the
Parthenon. While these were destroyed in the explosion of 1687, accurate
drawings of them from 1674 by French artist, Jacques Carrey, survive. On
the first panel, according to the book, Kain and Abel talk. On the second,
Kain argues with his own wife over a sacrifice. On the third, Kain
startles Abel in the field. On the fourth, Kain kills Abel.

Kain was the eldest son of Adam and Eve; Seth, who replaced the murdered
Abel, was their youngest son. Genesis asserts that only Noah's family of
the line of Seth survived the Flood; all others who practiced the anti-God
way of Kain drowned. According to "The Parthenon Code," the Greeks
depicted their recollection of Noah's Flood often on vases as Kentaurs (or
Centaurs, half-men/half-horses who represented the line of Seth), pounding
a man named Kaineus into the earth with rocks. Kaineus in Greek means
"pertaining to Kain," thus Greek artists conveyed the historical message
that all that pertained to Kain had disappeared into the earth, matching
the Genesis account.

"The evidence shows that the Greeks knew exactly who Kain was. Their
entire religious system, what we erroneously call 'myth,' chronicles the
reestablishment of the way of Kain after the Flood," Mr. Johnson said.

"The Greeks also knew exactly who Noah was: they called him Nereus, the
'Wet One' often depicting his bottom half as a fish signifying that he had
come through the Flood. The Greeks built the Parthenon to celebrate the
triumph of the way of Kain over Noah and his God, and to glorify Athena, a
picture of the serpent-friendly Eve of Genesis," he added.
