Cygnus Constellation, The

The Cygnus Constellation was the location of a supernova that inspired the story of Phaeton, as related to Solon by the priests at Sais, according to Michael A. Cahill in his two-volume  Paradise Rediscovered ^[818/9].

Andrew Collins has also written^[075] on the place of the constellation Cygnus in prehistoric consciousness. Arising from this study, it appears that the position of the Cygnus stars correlates more accurately with the Giza pyramids than those of Orion, which was proposed some years ago by Robert Bauval. Collins continues with the Cygnus-Giza connection in a subsequent offering, Beneath the Pyramids^[0631]. Derek Cunningham has echoed^(a) some of Collins’ work suggesting that there existed in ancient times a World Map based on the Cygnus constellation!

Collins has also suggested that a suspected Black Hole in Cygnus Constellation is thought to be the source of cosmic rays that changed evolution and kick-started religion^(d)!

Anthony Murphy and Richard Moore have also written^(b) about the Cygnus Constellation and a possible link with Ireland’s Newgrange^[1441].>Paul Dunbavin also touched on the possible connection between swans in Irish mythology and astronomical events^(e).<

Freddy Silva has endeavoured to link Cygnus with the Osirion in Abydos in a 2019 article^(c) in which he dated the structure to 10,500 BC.
