Each chapter includes an introduction, an overview of the existing documentation on the subject, a critical discussion of ongoing debates and questions, and a presentation of state-of-the-art research.Straddling the line between Egyptology and astronomy, this multidisciplinary book will appeal to any scholar or specialist interested in studying ancient Egyptianastronomy.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: CHItem Height: 235mmItem Length: 155mmAuthor: Juan Antonio Belmonte, José LullContributor: Terry Mahoney (Contributions by)Genre: Science Nature & MathBook Series: Historical & Cultural AstronomyRelease Year: 2023 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
