Very bold your final statement "Western philosophy may not have been possible without the influence of Egyptian philosophy", however with the arguments you put forward is completely true. Your article is very interesting and I perceive an extraordinary summary capacity. The Egyptians have greatly influenced very aspects of Western culture, in many areas of knowledge. The point is that they did not do it directly but through the dissemination of their contribution in the Greeks, for example. Fascinating this post @samminator. I congratulate you for the space you open for reflection. Cordial greetings @adsactly
