INTRODUCTION
In this essay, I will present the meanings associated with the name of an ancient Masarian (MISIR) king known by the name NARMER. He is
known as the tenth king of the ancient MASAR State (falsely called "EGYPT") which was a Turanian state founded by the Turkish speaking
Tur/Turk peoples - contrary to mountains of intentional misrepresentation. King "NARMER" is well known with an ancient Masarian artifact
depicting this king on two faces of a so-called "Narmer Palette" which is said to be dating from some 3200 years B.C.. Below are the two faces of
this ancient artfact.
The most prominent feature of this ancient artifact is its personification of the identity of the ancient Turanian name "OGUZ the Sky-God"
worshipped by Turanian people of ancient Masar as "Sky-God", and"Oguz the Man" as "ancestors" of Oguz/Tur/Turk peoples.
At the very top of these two faces of the "Narmer Palette", the ancient Turkic name for Sky-God OGUZ is clearly represented in picture writing
with two bull-headed human face.

"God created man in his own image".
"First the WORD was, the WORD was with
God, and the WORD was a god"
except that the "WORD" was "DE-US"
in Turkish meaning "WISE WORD".
Hence, the word for GOD became DEUS,
or DE-O for THEO, or SZ for ZEUS.
The Turkish language (i.e., the Sun Language)
and the OGUZ (i.e., Sun-Moon) Religion
were the progenitors for all these.

"Named after the Horus Narmer, whose titulary appears on both its faces, the Narmer Palette is a flat plate of schist of about 64 centimetres in height. Its
size, weight and decoration suggest that it was a ceremonial palette, rather than an actual cosmetics palette for daily use.
It was found in Hierakonpolis, the ancient Pre!ynastic capital located in the south of "gypt, by the #ritish archaeologist J.E. Quibell during the
e$ca%ation season of &'()*(', in a deposit, along with other artefacts stemming from the early beginnings of the recorded history of +ncient "gypt,
fragments of a ceremonial mace head belonging to Narmer and some other mace head fragments inscribed with the name of the Horus -.corpion-, one of
Narmer-s predecessors. /he e$act finding circumstances of the palette ha%e not been noted and there appear to be some contradictions in the publication of
0uibell-s wor1 at Hiera1onpolis.
/he ancient site of this city, called Nekhen by the "gyptians, its 2ree1 name Hierakonpolis meaning 3city of the falcon4, was long %enerated by the ancient
"gyptians as the early capital of the 5ingdom of 6pper "gypt. 7ust as Na8ada or Nubt was the city of .et, Hiera1onpolis or Ne1hen was the city of the
9alcon, first called Nekheny the Nekhenite and represented with two tall plumes on its head. He was assimilated %ery early with the falcon Horus, patron
god of 1ingship, and Ne1hen remained a cult center for Horus e%en after it was supplanted by "dfu as both pro%incial capital and temple center. /his may
ha%e led to one of se%eral outbrea1s of strife during the 9irst Intermediate Period. "dfu was ta1en o%er for a while by the go%ernor of Hiera1onpolis, who
was named Ankhtifiy.
Ne1hen lay in 6pper "gypt, south of Na8ada, and /hebes, and across the Nile from "l5ab, which became the city of Nekhbet the %ulture deity and one of
the two :adies who guarded the 1ingship. It lay north of +swan and ;ust north of "dfu."
