Let me tell yall what my little brain came up with… I Think the “Smoke Monster” Is actually made of the now dead people on the island. And that locke and bens daughter and clair are apart of it. When out of the temple. Locke never touches anyone…

These are the dumbest theories I have ever heard. The entire main plot line has already been given away. If you really still care dont read this. The four toed statue is of Isis, the wife of Osiris and the mother of Horus(the Egyptian Jesus). When Horus was a baby his mother took him to a magical hidden island to protect him from his uncle seth, who had murdered his father. The island is protected by Anubis, the Egyptian god of judgment and the underworld(his hieroglyph was on the wall, calling the monster, when Ben was judged). And the cherry on top. Horus was crippled as a boy then miraculously healed, died and rose again after 3 days, and had a line/scar under his right eye(image search the eye of Horus and you will see). Last week when Jack was cleaning the class room there was a time line of ancient Egypt. Long story short, John is Horus reincarnated and is here to save everyone. I think Richard might be an ancient Egyptian left to protect the island. There it is. Hope I didn’t burst your bubble!

Have you forgotten that the portal from the island opens into the Saharan desert? It’s not that far of a stretch to think at some point it was the other way around…

Granted Tunisia is not ‘nearby’ per se to where the Egyptian civilisation was centered, but you say the island is not part of the African continent yet it has many ties to Africa. The portal, the nigerians (eko and yemi) both winding up there, the egyptian hieroglyphics, the black rock ship setting sail with slaves (possibly from Mozambique, per john locke)…

So as the island moved about in space, the indigenous people left their island and cultivated their culture around the globe.

Didn’t have time to read through all comments, so I don’t know if this has been said, but from this picture, would the squiggly line (smokey) be considered in the shadow of the statue? I know some are thinking Iliana and her beach crew may have been infected by Smokey like Rousseau’s people were. This could be a hint toward that.

Yep, makes sense to me. The experiences the ancient people had on the island may have been what made them so mystical about death and caused them to develop all those rituals, lore, and idols/gods when they got to Egypt. There is no way that there is not a connection between the folks who lived on the island and Egypt. Things are too similar. Ancient Greeks, Sumarians, Mayans, etc.. were pretty advanced as well but their buildings, language, and so on were different.
And frankly, I don’t mind if there is a connection w/ Egypt, it’s still really cool. The writers at “Lost” have to still make the show relatable to “regular” viewers (like most of the people I know on a daily basis who watch the show) who don’t get into the mysticism of the show and the “regular viewers” will get ancient Egypt.

It absolutely makes sense with the preganacy issues on the island and what Tawaret represents, maybe with a “Lost” twist it is more humanoid then animal like. nice call ,imo.

This is totally in line with my thought that the island is a remnant of Mu. The survivors of the sinking of that lost continent suppossedly set up shop in Egypt, India, South America etc.

[...] been better off using the jackal-headed god of the afterlife Anubis (seen kneeling in the hieroglyphics before the smoke monster in “Dead Is Dead.”) What’s particularly serendipitous [...]

Maybe these ruins, temples, etchings, etc ARE from peoples we now call Egyptians BUT they pre-date known Eqyptian civilization? As in pre 6000 b.c. or so. Could the folks that were on the island have built all this stuff, developed all this culture, language and then left? Traveled to northern Africa and set up shop. Maybe there was a much, much earlier “incident” and it was responsible for blowing the statue in two and causing the ancient people to leave in fear. I’m obviously just totally speculating, but it’s a lot of fun.
