Perhaps you should stop for a moment to realize you're talking to an expert in the field you're mangling here.
. Oh by the way Sirius is moving and is not in the same location of the sky it was 4,600 years ago and the pyramids themselves are moving on the African plate about 90 meters to the NE....so nope.
The statues on Rapa Nui are not aligned to any stars. But they are aligned to sources of freshwater .....

According to researcher and historian Cyril Fagan,
“For Egypt and Babylonia, the length of Sirius’ heliacal year is almost exactly the same as the Julian year (see J.K. Fotheringham’s The Calendar, British Nautical Almanac, 1935) with the result that Sirius rose heliacally on almost the same Julian date for 4000 years (see Zodiacs, Old and New, table X, p.78).” He then provides us with the dates of the heliacal rising in Egypt (in Heliopolis), based on the calendar established by Julius Caesar in 45 BC, which has 365.25 days in a year.

I dont really care if you call yourself an expert. I judge you on your ability to share informed information on the subject. Something you have certainly failed to do sofar in this thread.
As I said early why dont you address the similarity between the same the Dog God of both Egypt and the Mayans having such similar properties.

You need to work on your reading skills.
I was talking about Byrd, not myself.

Now I won't immediately reject his 'idea' but how about you run along and find a real scientist who agrees with him then I might believe it. Thanks
You mean the Astrologer don't you? I hate to tell you but 'Astrology' isn't a science?

Oh come on Harte don't sell yourself short you are at least an amateur expert
The star at the center of the Dendera zodiac (which is from the time of Cleopatra and is actually a mix of Greek and Egyptian) is not Orion/Sirius. At the center is the "Bull's leg", which is the Big Dipper.

The Dogon and Ancient Egyptians have very different creation myths
Atum the prime deity of Egypt , masturbated into existence the rest of the gods after having created himself coming from the Abyss and then sitting on the Benben.
Dogon says they came from the sky , so completely different creation myth
are they not

I see what you did there. Is that an attempt at circumnavigation. You failed to mention that little dog again at the centre of te Dendera.
Identified as Ursa Minor - the Little Dipper. Dend era constellations identified

Yes it risies on the same time, follows the sun and has done for a very long time. So yes.

These two cultures has a lot in common. I will give you a few points of note.
A creator called Amma / Amen. Both include a world egg in the creation story.
The Dogon had higher powers called Nommo. The Khemetics had Neters.
There are 8 nomo or primordial ancestors of man. There are 8 primeval Neters.
Nomo siza is the serpant the represents immortalilty. / Khemtic: The serpant dies and is reborn every day.
Or how about Nommo Anagonna who is crucified to a tree does that remind you of anyone. Osirius perhaps
It isn't at the center of the Dendera calendar. Polaris is
Well, they're dog-headed and guide souls. After that, there's nothing similar about them.
