decanOpy is an AstroPy-powered code which generates celestial coordinates of a given Egyptian decan in 4-minute intervals for a given year BCE.
$ git clone https://github.com/lunazagor/decanOpy
The code takes three inputs: the name of the decan, the year BCE, and the starting month. An example run might look like
python3 decanO.py -decan Merak -yearBC 1300 -month 01
The code will produce a .txt file with the following columns:
Julian Date|Human Readable Date|<Decan name> Azimuth|<Decan name> Altitude|Sun Azimuth|Sun Altitude
The Jupyter notebook containts some examples of how to visualize the data saved in the .txt file.
