<HTML>Some more questions to consider. The Pyramid Texts date to the Fifth Dynasty, the astronomical ceilings are later in date. If the Egyptians did know of a Lion constellation in the modern position of Leo, why didn't they portray it in those dynastic astronomical representations ? There is a leonine constellation depicted, but it is in the wrong celestial place. How do you account for this discrepancy (which isn't mentioned in your book, hence my asking) ?
Looking forward to your answer and have a safe plane journey (I'd be interested to know whether your plane is full or whether it looks like many passangers cancelled through fear ? I may be booking a journey soon, hence my question for someone experiencing it firsthand so to speak).
