Some interesting notes on the legend of the Phoenix

Actually, alot of myths are based on reality. The myth of Santa 
Claus, werewolves and vampires have their own truths that have just 
been exaggerated through time or not totally understood because of 
primitive thinking. With werewolves and vampires, the stories were 
based on rare diseases that became horror stories. Santa Claus is 
basically a creation of Coca Cola from an old (real) story of a 
generous man.
The phoenix in a sense is symbolism for recreation in the early 
days 
of humanity. There are references in the Bible of recreation 
littered 
around. Basically, it's a primitive version of cloning. You can 
take 
a DNA sample from someone and clone them, as the phoenix was born 
from "it's own ashes".
The Egyptian Era was quite an interesting era, really.

I really don't want to link religion into this book because I 
believe 
it doesn't have a right to be there. But alot of the resources JK 
has 
drawn from does have a crumb of reality in there.

I think that Voldemort would hang around where he is strongest. 
Unless, his entourage accompany him to Egypt, I think he would be 
quite exposed there.
