Horae Aegypticae is a comprehensive study of the chronology of ancient Egypt, as revealed through astronomical and hieroglyphic records found on the country's monuments. Written by R. G. Poole, the book presents a detailed analysis of the astronomical and calendrical systems used by the ancient Egyptians, as well as their methods of recording historical events and the reigns of their kings. Drawing on a wide range of historical and archaeological sources, Poole provides a meticulous examination of the evidence for the dating of key events in Egyptian history, including the construction of the great pyramids and the reigns of famous pharaohs such as Tutankhamun and Ramses II. This book is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of ancient Egypt, as well as those studying the development of astronomical and calendrical systems in the ancient world.1851.
