Ancient Egyptian Astronomy by Gerald O Dobek

The ancient Egyptians masterfully constructed a vast array of monuments and temples
along a 1,300 km stretch of the Nile River in Egypt. These temples are thought to be the
final resting places for the Great Kings that ruled Egypt beginning over 5,000 years ago.
Some researchers have said that these temples point to specific celestial objects. Others
are believed to be aligned with the Sun’s rising or setting. Many of the pyramids and other
temples are aligned with the cardinal axial points of the Earth. The reasons for these
alignments are thought to be an early understanding of astronomy. Speculations on the
solar alignments of passageways and the stellar alignments of pyramids are written in
recent books and presented in numerous television shows. What we have learned of the
ancient Egyptians come to us in the form of hieroglyphics; picture writings. These
hieroglyphics tell us that the ancient Egyptians never really understood astronomy, at least
in the form that we associate with other ancient cultures. What these temples were meant
for are recorded in the Pyramid Texts. What the ancient Egyptians saw as their astronomy
was purely religious. But for ancient Egyptian astronomers, it was astronomy.
