Which of the following was never a type of calendar for Ancient Egyptians?
Possible Answers:
Everyday farming calendar
Astronomical calendar
Lunar Calendar
A calendar for the Sun god Re
Correct answer:
A calendar for the Sun god Re
Explanation:
A calendar for Re never existed. The everyday farming calendar was made up of three seasons, each lasting 4 months. The astronomical calendar was based on observations of the star, Sirius which appeared at the start of flood season. A lunar calendar was kept for priests to tell them when to perform certain types of ceremonies for the Khonsu, the moon god.
