This Astrological Calendar papyrus painting is a wonderful example of the mythology of Ancient Egypt. It illustrates the famous circular zodiac, originally on the ceiling of Temple of Dendera in Qena, Egypt. The circular zodiac is from c. 200 B.C. The original is now in the Louvre, and a copy is in its place in the Temple. The zodiac is centered on the celestial North Pole as shown by the hippopatumus at its centre, a symbol of the polar constellations.
