<HTML>The Egyptians could easily have made four shafts pointing south to different constellations. That they made one shaft point northwards to Orion doesn't mean they didn't recognise which direction Orion was in. They recognised north, south, east and west on the ground; they could easily have done so inside the actual pyramids and indeed did (see the orientations of the Pyramid Texts in Unas' pyramid for example). The Egyptians knew directionality and there's no reason, imo, why they couldn't have replicated it on the ground if they really wanted to represent Orion's Belt (leaving aside the incorrect angles, debate over whether Osiris was then associated with just a single star and not three or more stars, and the fact that the Giza pyramids were not built by successive pharaohs - no masterplan).</HTML>
