This celebrated study -- derived from Lockyer's belief that ancient Egyptian monuments were constructed "in strict relation to the stars" -- explores the relationship between astronomy and architecture in the age of the pharaohs. The author addresses one of the many points already extensively investigated by Egyptologists: the chronology of the kings of Egypt.
