If we go back to the past timeline of 5,000 years ago in Egypt, the vernal equinox announcing spring was close to the star [[Aldebaran]] in the Taurus constellation and Earth’s celestial north pole was [[Thuban]], also referred to as [[Alpha Draconis]]. Science informs us that this historical period was the Bronze Age, when our ancestors began to produce bronze by smelting their own copper. The Bronze Age was the introduction and production of bronze technology, developing trade networks, and from the archeologic evidence given to the public, were the first recorded written languages of human history. During this time, Sumerians worshipped [[Enki]] as the God of water, and saw him as the manifestation of the heavenly bull in the Taurus constellation. See [[Sumerian-Egypt Invasion]]. | |||
