Nile River

The River Nile was considered the longest river in the world, a title now disputed by the Amazon.^(a) More important was the part it played in the development of pharaonic Egypt. Understandably, it also played a part in the mythology and religion of ancient Egypt.

In 2019, a paper^(d) by Larry Pahl revisited the Orion Correlation Theory and argued that Robert Bauval should not have limited his theory to Orion’s Belt alone, but should instead have considered the entire constellation and explored a broader reflection on the monuments of ancient Egypt. Prahl then proceeds to do exactly that.

Similarly, Jean-Pierre Lacroix claimed that other Egyptian structures may have been located to reflect the layout of other constellations in the sky. Specifically, he focuses on Aries and Thebes^(e) .

Alessandro Berio went further with the claim^(f) that the entire Nile was ‘designed’ to be a reflection of the constellations above!

Philip Coppens, commenting on how the Incas viewed the valley of Cusco, wrote, “Modern research suggests that the Sacred Valley of the Vilcamayu and Urubamba rivers symbolised the Milky Way. Identifying rivers with constellations, specifically the Milky Way, is nothing new. Other examples are the Nile, as well as the Po in Italy and the Rhône in France.”^(b)

Derek Cunningham claims to have discovered^(c) that there is an association between the layout of the Stonehenge complex with the Milky Way!
