Reptilians in the Secret History of Religions and Secret Societies! How much of what we know about the history of religions is buried in the shadows of the past? Discover a hidden realm where reptilians, secret societies and esoteric truths intertwine in a mysterious labyrinth of history.
This is not just a simple road through known history, but a journey into the heart of ancient secrets, where reality intertwines with legend, and where truth is far stranger than fiction. In the year 721 before Christ, with the conquest of Israel by the Assyrians, a dark and easily forgotten page of history opens.
Prisoners in chains not only of iron, but also of incomprehensible mysteries, the Israelites, or Canaanites, witnessed an enigmatic game of power. What is behind the survival of the tribes of Judah and Benjamin? How did the Hebrew priests, known as the Levites, mix into this picture, and what enigmatic
Role did the reptilians play in this unwritten history? Think: if a secret Brotherhood controlled the knowledge of the ancient world, what truths would they choose to hide behind the walls of destroyed libraries and what lies would they inoculate in sacrificed texts?
In the shadow of Babylon, a fertile ground for Sumerian legends and occult practices, the Levites wove a mixture of truth and fiction that became the foundation of the Old Testament. But who were really the authors of these holy texts? The pure-blooded and cross-blooded Reptilians, under the direct guidance of the Babylonian
Brotherhood, donned the mantle of originators, guiding the writing of the words that would shape the beliefs of billions of people. Discover how Sumerian legends turned into the pages of the Bible, and how the story of Moses, far from being a mere myth, hides codes and symbols meant for the eyes of the
Initiated only. This journey into the secret history of religions and secret societies invites us to look beyond the accepted veil of history, to question and doubt, to seek the truth hidden behind the masks worn by those who wrote history.
Are you ready to open this book full of untold secrets and step into a world where nothing is what it seems? In 721 BC, Israel was conquered by the Assyrians, and the Israelites (or Canaanites) were taken into captivity.
The tribes known to official history as Judah and Benjamin survived for more than a hundred years before they were conquered and captured by our friends the Babylonians around 586 BC The whole history hiding the truth began to be manufactured in Babylon, the ancient
Capital of the reptilian Aryan priesthood and hierarchy, by the Hebrew priests known as Levites. Old Testament! Think about it: if a Brotherhood were to destroy all knowledge of the ancient world, including that world’s libraries, what would it write in its texts, real history or a variation
Of it that it would like to inoculate into the collective subconscious? During and after their stay in Babylon, where they learned so many things, including the legends of Sumer, the Levite priests mixed the truth (often symbolically as well) with fantasy, and this mixture became the foundation of the Old Testament.
It was not the “Israelites” who wrote these texts. Even if we were to accept their existence, they should have long been dispersed by the time the Levites dipped their quills in ink. Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus and Numbers, which together make up the Jewish Torah, were written
Entirely by or under the supervision of the Levites during and after their stay in Babylon. This group of people who practiced human sacrifice, black magicians and fanatics who used to drink blood, are the ones who wrote the moral law that the Jews are supposed to follow to this day.
I wouldn’t even trust them to ask what time it is! Instead, fanatical Christians take these texts as the Word of God! They are not the Word of God at all, they are the words of the Levites, written under the direct guidance of the full-blooded or cross-blooded reptilian initiates of the Babylonian Brotherhood.
The Sumerian tablets prove beyond any doubt that Genesis is nothing more than a condensed text of older Sumerian texts. The Sumerian legend of Edin became the biblical story of the Garden of Eden. Do you still remember the story of Moses, found in the reeds by an Egyptian princess?
The exact same story was told by the Sumerian-Babylonians with reference to King Sargon the Elder. The story of Moses is an invention, as is the “captivity” in Egypt, the story of the Exodus (at least in the form described in the Bible) and the creation of the 12 tribes through Jacob.
All these texts were written by the Levites, whose leaders were initiated in the schools of the reptilian mysteries in Babylon. Their stories are symbolic and coded so that they are understood by the initiated, but not by the masses, who had to believe in their literal meaning.
According to the Levites, Moses received the laws and commandments from God on top of a mountain. We find again and again the same symbolism of the mountains. One of the explanations is related to the fact that the top of the mountain is closer to the symbol of their God: the Sun.
Mount Zion means Mount of the Sun. Even today, the sun rising over the mountains in the east is one of the main symbols of the Brotherhood. The story of the Israelites and the Jews is mostly an invention, a veil behind which the truth has been hidden.
No other people were so deceived as those who call themselves Jews. They have been terrorized, used and manipulated in the most grotesque and merciless manner by their own Elite, to implement an Agenda that the vast majority of Jews do not even know.
There is no more eloquent example of this than the manner in which the “Jewish” clan of the Rothschild days (actually full-blooded reptilians) financially supported, and more than that, the coming to power of the Nazis, leaving their peers their inferiors to bear the consequences.
The Levitical story of the Exodus is nothing more than a smokescreen intended to hide the theft of “Jewish” knowledge from the Egyptian mystery schools after their infiltration by the Babylonian Brotherhood. The Egyptians considered the revelation of “Jehovah” a crime committed against the sacred sciences.
Historian and Freemason initiate Manly Hall states that the state religion in Egypt at one point turned into black magic and that the spiritual activities of the people were paralyzed by complete obedience to the dogmas formulated and imposed by the priesthood. This description perfectly corresponds to the way of manipulation of the Levites-Babylonians,
Respectively of all the religions that appeared later on the basis of these lies, including Christianity. This aspect is very important: Judaism, Christianity and Islam base their beliefs on the same stories written by the Levites after their stay in Babylon.
This was the key historical moment that would allow the control of the world from then until now. The knowledge stolen by the Levites from the Egyptians and spread after their stay in Babylon became known as the Kabala, a term that comes from the Hebrew root QBL, meaning from mouth to ear.
This is the method used to communicate the most secret information to initiates. Kabbalah is the esoteric branch of Judaism, which is nothing more than a cover for the Babylonian Brotherhood, just like the Vatican. Kabbalah is the secret knowledge hidden in the codes of the Old Testament and other ancient texts.
Judaism represents only the literal interpretation of these texts. The same technique is used by all religions. An example of Levitical codification refers to the names of the five scribes: Garia, Dabria, Tzelemia, Echanu and Azrel, as they appear in the second book of Esdras or Ezra.
Here is the true meaning of these names: Garia: a clue by which ancient scribes used to draw attention to the fact that the text is false or that it has another meaning. Dabria: words that make up a sentence or text. Tzelemia: images, imaginary story, or truth indicated in an obscure form.
Echanu: changed or duplicated information. Azrel: the name of Esdras or Ezra, to which the suffix “el” is added. In other words, Ezra’s work. These are the five names of the scribes, which an initiate reads as one coherent sentence: Warning sign of obscurely imagined words which have been changed or doubled and which represent
The work of Ezra. There is a book called The Bible Code that claims to have identified a code in the Hebrew version of the Old Testament that would predict the future. Given that one of these codes predicts the assassination of President Kennedy by Lee
Harvey Oswald, allow me to remain skeptical about the credibility of this book. Does anyone in this world really believe that Oswald killed Kennedy? Apart from this book, there is indeed a code of the Bible, accessible only to the initiated.
The authors of the Bible used to invent certain characters that corresponded to their symbolism, or they used certain real characters, whose lives they falsified. Here are some examples of codes from the Bible: one of the most common themes in all mystery
School traditions refers to the 12 disciples, knights or followers around a deity. The number 12 is a code, symbolizing among other things the 12 seasons and the 12 zodiacal houses through which the sun or god passes, symbolized by the number 13.
This is the sacred number 12 + 1, as some people call it, and this explains the recurrence with which the names 12 and 13 appear in all initiatory texts. For example, we have 12 tribes of Israel, 12 princes of Ishmael, 12 disciples or apostles of Jesus, but also of Buddha, Osiris and Quetzalcoatl.
Then there is King Arthur and the 12 Knights of the Round Table (symbolizing the circle of the zodiac), Himmler and the 12 knights of the Nazi SS order, and the woman (Isis, Semiramis) who wears the 12 star crown from the Book of Revelations (Apocalypse).
In Scandinavia and northern Europe we have the mysteries of Odin, inspired by the same Aryan race from the Near East. In this tradition there are 12 Drottari who preside over the mysteries together with Odin. Each time we are dealing with the same number 12+1.
All these stories are not literally true, but represent symbolism used by mystery schools. The same symbols are used today by the Brotherhood’s secret societies on national flags, military insignia, in advertising and on company logos. One of the great creations of the Brotherhood, the European Union, has as its symbol a circle
Made up of 12 stars. Practically, we are only dealing with sacred numbers and elements of sacred geometry. The proportions of all Egyptian statues, whether large or small, are multiples of 6 and 12. Other numerical codes in the Bible and the mysteries are 7 and 40.
For example, in the Bible we have seven spirits of God, seven churches of Asia, seven golden candlesticks, seven stars, seven lamps of fire, seven seals, seven trumpets, seven angels, seven thunders and the red dragon of Revelation with seven heads and his seven crowns.
The legend of Jericho describes the march of Joshua’s army around the city for seven days, accompanied by seven priests with seven trumpets. On the seventh day they surrounded Jericho seven times, and the walls of the city began to crumble.
In the legend of Noah, he loaded his ark with seven pairs of each animal and seven pairs of each species of bird. Seven days passed between the prediction of the flood and the actual deluge, and seven days also passed between the sending of the pairs of doves.
The ark touched the earth on the 17th day of the seventh month, and Noah left the ark on the 27th day. After the flood he reached the age of 700 years. Many of the names of symbolic deities, such as Abraxas of the Gnostics or Serapis of Greece had seven letters.
Then we have the number 40. Adam entered Paradise at the age of 40, Eve followed 40 years later. During the Great Flood it rained for 40 days and 40 nights. Set is taken by the angels at the age of 40 and is not seen for 40 days.
Moses arrives in Midian at the age of 40 and stays there for 40 years. Joseph is 40 years old when Jacob arrives in Egypt. Jesus withdraws into the wilderness for 40 days. Do you really believe that the Bible is the Word of God? No way.
It is written in the esoteric code of the mystery schools. Arabic literature was also written by and for initiates, proof that we find the same codes in it. In the 40 stories of Arbaindt (which means 40) we find the number 40 everywhere, and their calendar has 40 rainy days and 40 windy days.
Arabic law constantly refers to the number 40. Another series of Arabic books, called Sebaidt, which means seven, revolves exclusively around this number. These numerical codes have much deeper meanings than the obvious, such as the number of days of the week or the number of months of the zodiac.
Among other things, the numbers represent vibrational frequencies. Any frequency resonates with a certain number, a certain color and a certain sound. Certain frequencies, with their corresponding numbers, colors and sounds, are extremely powerful. Symbols in turn represent resonances with certain frequencies and influence the human subconscious without him realizing it.
This explains the presence of certain symbols on the insignia of secret societies, on national flags, on company logos, in advertisements, and so on. There is no historical evidence of the existence of a man named Moses. It appears only in the Levitical texts and in other texts and commentaries derived from them.
Some say that this was the initiatory name of the Egyptian pharaoh Arkenaten. This is possible, but the official version regarding Moses has no historical basis. Nothing was known about the story of Moses and the “curses” that fell on the Egyptians
Until the Levites in Babylon wrote the story of the Exodus, several centuries after the time when these things should have happened. According to legend, all the animals in Egypt were supposed to die three times! How could they have died and resurrected again?
There was no assassination of the first born of the Egyptian pharaoh, so the Feast of the Jewish Passover (the paschal lamb) has no historical basis, being invented by the Levites. The reference to the anointing of the doors with the blood of the lamb is only a codification
Of the old symbolism of the lamb. There was no official Hebrew book that made any mention of the Pentateuch (the laws of Moses) before the Levites arrived in Babylon. As for the captivity of the Israelites in Egypt, even Deuteronomy describes them as “strangers”, not as slaves, during this period.
Where then did the name Moses come from? Any initiate who reached the highest rank in the hierarchy of the Egyptian mystery schools was called Muse, Mose or Moses. The Egyptian historian Manetho, who lived in the third century before Christ, quoted
By the Jewish historian Josephus, states that there was a priest in Heliopolis or ON (Place of the Sun), who then took the name of Mosheh or Moses. The word Moses (Moses) means: the one who was kidnapped, who was taken out of the water, who was made a missionary, ambassador, or apostle.
The High Priest in the Egyptian temples was called EOVE or EOVA, hence the appearance of the name Jehovah. In reality, the Hebrew language is the sacred language of the Egyptian mystery schools. The secret language of Egypt was called CBT or QBT, better known today as Coptic.
The secret language of the mystery schools took its name from OBR or ABR, which in those days referred to the passage from one place to another, that is, to a certain type of transition. Indeed, the goal of all the original mystery schools was the transition to enlightenment.
ABR then became Ambres, the name of the holy doctrine reserved for initiates, a name that was written including: ambric, hebric, hebraic or hebrew. The Hebrew alphabet has 22 letters, but the original one, before “Moses”, had only 10, and its true meaning was only known to the priests.
The Hebrews (or at least their founders) were not Israelites or Jews, but initiates of the Egyptian mystery schools. No wonder it is currently impossible to identify a Hebrew or Jewish genetic “race”. The word cohen, which means priest in Hebrew, comes from cahen, the Egyptian pronunciation for priest and prince.
In English, Moses is the name of Moses. Even circumcision, that exclusively “Jewish” tradition, was practiced in the Egyptian mystery schools for at least 4000 years. No follower could be initiated until he was circumcised. In Egypt there was no Hebrew religion, no Hebrew law, for the simple reason that there was no Hebrew “race.”
The only religion was the Egyptian one. The Hebrew religion, language and race did not appear until the initiates of the Egyptian mysteries, later known as the Levites, took the secret knowledge out of Egypt and invented this story to hide what they were really doing, whose interests they served and where they came from.
The terms “Hebrew” and “Judaism” basically translate as “Egyptian”. This explains, among other things, why the Brotherhood uses so many Egyptian symbols even today, including the pyramid which is missing the top stone. This is a symbol of the Great Pyramid of Giza and the Egyptian mystery schools, although it also hides other, deeper meanings.
At the entrance to the Egyptian temple where the mysteries were held, there were two massive obelisks. These are often represented by Freemasons in the form of two pillars and appear in all buildings designed or financed by initiates. This is also the explanation of the two pillars that Samson laid on the ground.
All the initiates from the mystery schools received an initiatory name, a tradition that continues to this day within the Fraternity. A possible connection with the Hebrews of Egypt could be linked to the invasion of the Hyksos population, or the Shepherd Kings.
The Egyptian historian Manetho describes the invasion and conquest of Egypt by a strange race of barbarians. When these were finally repulsed, they continued their journey through Syria and built a city they called Jerusalem. The Hyksos could be the same as the tribe called Habiru, which came from the former
Lands of Sumer, as it is said that Abraham’s tribe would have done (according to the Old Testament). The story of King Solomon and his temple is mostly pure symbolism. As with Moses, there is no evidence that there was a king of that name.
Before the writing of the biblical texts by the Levites, the Greek historian Herodotus (485 – 425 BC) traveled to Egypt and studied its history and that of the Near East. He heard nothing of any Solomonic empire, of the mass exodus of the Israelites from
Egypt, or of the destruction of the army of Egyptian pursuers on the shores of the Red Sea. Plato traveled in the same area, but he didn’t hear anything about these subjects either. Why? Because they are only inventions. The three syllables that make up Solomon’s name: are names of the sun in three different
Languages. Manly Hall writes that Solomon along with his wives and concubines symbolize the planets, moons, asteroids and other celestial bodies in his home solar system. Solomon’s temple is a symbol of the world of the sun. In the Talmudic legend, Solomon is presented as a master magician who understood the meaning
Of Kabbalah and could cast out demons. His story is rather an exposition of the symbolism of the secret knowledge of the Levites, under the cover of the fabricated story of the “history” of the Hebrews. The Book of Kings and Chronicles, which recount the building of Solomon’s Temple, were written
500 – 600 years after the events they supposedly describe took place. The exaggerations in these texts are so great that they are downright hilarious. It is said that 153,600 workers worked for seven years to build the temple.
Arthur Dynott Thomson calculated that in our era, the cost of such a work would be £7.9 billion! And Thomson wrote this in 1872! How much would it amount to nowadays? These figures are downright ridiculous, if they were to be understood in a literal sense.
In reality, they must be understood in their symbolic meaning. And one more thing: if Solomon did not exist, what would make us believe that his “father”, King David, did exist? I read all kinds of books about its existence, but the only source cited is the Old Testament written by the Levites!
There is no other evidence. It’s all a hoax, as is the recent idea (which has been making waves in recent years) that the Jesus-David genealogical line reached France and gave birth to the Merovingian dynasty. As scholar and researcher Waddell says: There is no written evidence, no Greek or Roman
Reference, that attests to the existence of Abraham or any other Jewish patriarch or prophet in the Old Testament. There is no evidence that there was a Moses, Saul, Solomon, or any of the Jewish kings except the last two or three.
The consequences of this fact on the people who called themselves “Jews” and on humanity in general were devastating. The Mosaic Law or the Law of Moses is the law of the Levites, the pure-blooded reptilians and the cross-blooded ones of the Babylonian Brotherhood. It has nothing to do with the Word of God.
The Torah and the Talmud, the two texts that were compiled by the Levites during and after their stay in Babylon, represent a veritable mental bombardment of extremely detailed laws about what man must do in every area of life.
It would be impossible for “God” to have given these laws on top of a mountain. The ones who wrote them were the Levites, after which they invented Moses, to hide this. Since then, other “laws” have been added, in order to cover all the possibilities left unexploited.
The pages of these Levitical texts contain a recurrent and aberrant theme of extreme racism directed against non-Jews, and the need to “ruthlessly destroy” all who break these laws, which is exactly what Manly Hall calls the priests’ methods of operation who practiced black magic.
The Talmud is probably the most racist document ever written on earth. Here are some excerpts from it, which attest to how far spiritual aberration can go: Only the Jews are human; non-Jews are not people, but cattle. Kerithuth 6b, page 78, jebhammoth 61. The Gentiles were created to serve the Jews as slaves.
Midrash Talpioth 225. Sexual acts with non-Jews are similar to sexual acts with animals. Kethuboth 3b 97. Gentiles are to be avoided like sick pigs. Orach Chalim 57, 6a. The birth rate of non-Jews must be dramatically reduced. Zohar 11, 4b.
Gentiles who die must be replaced by others, just as you replace a cow or a donkey. Lore Dea 377. However, this text is not a simple grotesque display of racism. If we read it carefully, we find in it the very attitude of the draconian reptilians and their henchmen towards the human race.
I remind you that these horrors were not written by Jews or “Jews” as a people. They are themselves victims of these beliefs imposed by their authors. They were written by the Levites, the representatives of the Babylonian Brotherhood made up of reptilians
And their cross relatives, who have no more sympathy for the Jewish people than Adolf Hitler had. Blaming the “Jews” is silly, but it is exactly what the Brotherhood wants, as it greatly increases its ability to divide and rule, the two foundations of its policy of control.
What horrors this manipulation has led to in time, both for “Jews” and for “heathens”! The same is the case with the Jewish oral law called the Mishnah, concluded around the second century, our era. Israel Shahak, a survivor of the Belsen concentration camp, is one of the few people in the ranks
Of those who claim to be Jews, who had the courage to publicly expose the Talmud. In his book, Jewish History, Jewish Religion, Shahak denounces the incredible level of racism on which “Jewish” (actually Levitical or Brotherhood) law is based. He recounts that in its extremist aspect, represented by modern Orthodox rabbis, this
Belief considers it a religious offense to save the life of a heathen, except for the situation in which the Jews would suffer unpleasant consequences if they did not do so. Collecting interest on loans granted to another Jew is not permitted; instead, a non-Jew must be charged interest no matter how high.
The Talmud requires Jews to utter a curse whenever they pass a pagan cemetery, and if they pass a pagan building, to pray to God to destroy it. Jews are forbidden to steal from one another, but the law does not apply to Gentiles.
There are Jewish prayers that thank God for not turning Jews into pagans, and others that call for the immediate death of Christians. A religious Jew has no right to drink from a bottle of wine if it has been touched by a non-Jew after it has been opened.
After receiving the Nobel Prize for Literature, the Jewish writer Agnon said on Israel Radio: I have not forgotten that we are forbidden to thank pagans, but now I have a special reason: they gave their prize to a Jew . These are the laws of the belief system called “the
Jew”, the one that complains all the time and that condemns racism against the Jews! Their very belief system is based on the most extreme racism ever encountered on earth. And yet, they are not shy to cry: Anti-Semites against all researchers who get too close to the truth about the global conspiracy.
Benjamin Freedman, a Jew who knew high-ranking Zionists (Zionist comes from sun worshipper) of the 1930s and 1940s, argued that the term “anti-Semitism” should be removed from the English language. Here’s what he said: At the present time, anti-Semitism serves only one purpose: it is used as a scarecrow.
When the Jews sense that someone is opposing their true goals, they discredit their victims by calling them anti-Semitic through every channel available to them and under their control. One of these channels is an organization based in the United States, but operating worldwide,
With the express purpose of condemning those who oppose the Brotherhood as racists. Its name is the Anti-Defamation League (ADL). I myself was a target of them, which amused me and confirmed to me that I am on the right path.
The League is also supported by non-Jewish sycophants, who try to preserve a pure and holy image of this institution. Personally, I won’t take seriously any “I’m holier than thou” “anti-racist” movement unless it condemns all forms of racism, and not just the ones that suit them. The smell of hypocrisy disgusts me.
Fortunately, this Levitical racism is not followed by the vast majority of the Jewish population, and many of its members openly revolted against the strict racial laws that require them to marry only among themselves. Many people who consider themselves “Jews” are raised from childhood in the cult of fear,
Thus becoming mere indoctrinated puppets of this so vicious Levitical hierarchy, which in the meantime has metamorphosed first into the Pharisees, then into the Talmudists and into the extreme Zionists of our day, controlled by fanatical rabbis who enforce the Levitical “law” of Babylon on behalf of the Reptilians.
The vast majority of those who follow the religions born from the Old Testament do not know what their true origin is and the Agenda that is hidden behind them. This knowledge is the restricted privilege of a tiny Elite at the top of the hierarchy
Of a network of secret organizations, who invented and manipulate these religions, including their representatives. They are not really interested in those who follow them, be they Jews, Roman Catholics, Muslims, or whatever. No other argument more perfectly illustrates the farce that all these religions and races represent than those who call themselves Jews.
As even Jewish writers and anthropologists have shown, there is no such thing as a Jewish race. Judaism is a faith, not a race. The whole story of the “Jewish” people was invented to cover up another reality. The Jewish writer and scholar Alfred Lilenthal wrote: There is not a single reputable anthropologist
Who would not agree that the idea of a Jewish race is as much nonsense as the idea of an Aryan race. Anthropological science divides humanity into only three recognizable races: the black race, the Mongoloid or Oriental and the Caucasian or white (although some also speak of a fourth race, the Australoid).
Members of the Jewish Faith are to be found in all three races and in their subdivisions. The reality is that within the Jewish faith and other cultures lurks a covert race made up of pure-blood reptilian and hybrid bloodlines. These genealogical lines appear to be ostensibly integrated into these beliefs and cultures,
But their real purpose is to manipulate and control. The Levites also belonged to this category. The farce becomes even more visible, and more eloquent for the smoke screen that this world has turned into, if we consider that the majority of those who claim to be Jews today have no
Genetic connection to the land they call Israel. The culmination is that this connection allowed the establishment of the modern state of Israel by force, at the expense of the Arab people of Palestine! Other Jewish writers, such as Arthur Koestler and others, have exposed this reality, according
To which all those who created and populated the state of Israel are genetically from southern Russia, not from Israel. The crooked nose considered so “Jewish” is a genetic trait found in the south of Russia and the Caucasus, by no means in Israel.
In 740 CE, a people called the Khazars converted en masse to Judaism. Here is what Koestler writes in this direction: the Khazars did not come from Jordan, but from the Volga. They did not come from Canaan, but from the Caucasus.
From a genetic point of view, they are more closely related to the Huns, Uighurs and Hungarians than to the seed of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. The unfolding history of the Khazar Empire is beginning to look more and more like the cruelest party history has ever played.
There are two major subdivisions of the so-called Jews: Sephardim and Ashkenazim. The Sephardim are descendants of the Jews who lived in Spain from antiquity until the 15th century, when they were expelled. By the 60s of the 20th century, the Sephardi were estimated at a total number of about
Half a million, while the Ashkenazi number about 11 million. The latter do not have the slightest kinship with Israel, but they are the ones who invaded Palestine, creating the state of Israel under the pretext that “God” promised them this land in the Old Testament. Who wrote the Old Testament? Their priests, the Levites!
And who wrote the New Testament, which gave birth to Christianity? People controlled by the same force that controlled the Levites: the Babylonian Brotherhood.
