The dawn of astronomy; a study of the temple-worship and mythology of the ancient Egyptians
A study of Egyptian temple alignments, sun worship and mythology by the astronomer Norman Lockyer, published in London by Cassell in 1894 for readers of popular science and archaeology. The plates mix outline drawings of gods in profile wearing tall crowns and carrying ankhs and sceptres with reproduced papyrus panels of dense hieroglyph columns, alongside temple plans and star diagrams; useful for clean figure silhouettes, ornamental crown shapes and grid-like glyph textures.
