Wait, really? I only ever heard of the Baphomet statue reference and the monoliths that they build. If it's so old why are the occultists so obsessed with it?
The Baphomet figure was created in the 19th century by a French dude. The emerald tablet is the "source" if you will, of the oldest hidden knowledge, a foundation for the study of alchemy. It was rediscovered in the dark ages when the Arabs translated it. Scientists throughout history have tried to understand it. I believe Isaac Newton was obsessed with it through most of his life.
Occult simply means hidden knowledge, it's not necessarily good or bad. Its like if you collect baseball cards, you're gonna want to have the rarest and most valuable cards within your group of hobbyists.
no that is a very ancient principle, going back to Hermes Trismegistes and the Emerald tablet. Predates the Egyptians supposedly.
