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

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<\/em>[0631<\/a>]<\/sup>. Derek Cunningham<\/a> has echoed(a) <\/sup>some of Collins\u2019 work, suggesting that there existed<\/strong> in ancient times a World Map based on the Cygnus constellation!<\/p>\n

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)<\/span><\/sup>!<\/p>\n

Anthony Murphy and Richard Moore have also written(b)<\/sup> about the Cygnus Constellation and a possible link with Ireland\u2019s Newgrange[1441<\/a>]<\/sup>. This idea was echoed in a recent episode of Ancient Aliens<\/em> (S18E17)(f)<\/sup>. Paul Dunbavin<\/a> also touched on the possible connection between swans in Irish mythology and astronomical events(e)<\/span><\/sup>.<\/p>\n

Freddy Silva has endeavoured to link Cygnus with the Osirion in Abydos<\/a> in a 2019 article(c)<\/sup> in which he dated the structure to circa 10,500 BC.<\/p>\n
