The Egyptian and Babylonian Ecliptic Constellations is a book written by J. Norman Lockyer. The book explores the ancient astronomical knowledge of the Egyptians and Babylonians, with a focus on their understanding of the constellations along the ecliptic. The author delves into the history and mythology surrounding these constellations, as well as their significance in ancient astrology and astronomy. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on the Egyptian constellations and the second part focusing on the Babylonian constellations. Throughout the book, Lockyer draws on a wide range of primary sources, including ancient texts, inscriptions, and artwork, to provide a comprehensive and detailed account of these ancient cultures' astronomical knowledge. The book is an important resource for anyone interested in the history of astronomy, ancient mythology, or the intersection of science and culture.THIS 22 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Dawn of Astronomy, by J.
