Cheret-waret is the name of an ancient Egyptian dean who belonged to the ancient Egyptian constellation Sah , which is depicted in many coffins on the diagonal star clocks and, for example, in the tomb of Senenmut .
The most conspicuous celestial object is the outer belt star Alnitak in the constellation Orion , a blue giant .
In the dean lists of the Sethos script , Cheret-waret represented the 33rd dean on the body of the groove . The heliacal ascent was scheduled for the 26th Peret III and had as a dating basis the decree under Sesostris III. ( 12th Dynasty ) in his seventh year of reign.
