Star Cults of the Ancient Egyptians by J. Norman Lockyer is a scholarly work that explores the role of astronomy and astrology in the religious beliefs and practices of ancient Egypt. The book delves into the various star cults that existed in ancient Egypt, including those dedicated to Sirius, Orion, and the planets. It also examines the ways in which these cults influenced the development of Egyptian religion and mythology, as well as the role of the stars in Egyptian cosmology and the afterlife. Throughout the book, Lockyer draws on a wide range of primary sources, including temple inscriptions, funerary texts, and astronomical records, to provide a comprehensive and detailed account of the star cults of ancient Egypt. This book will be of interest to scholars and students of Egyptology, astronomy, and religious studies, as well as anyone with an interest in the ancient world and its cultures.THIS 22 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Dawn of Astronomy, by J.
