Lined up with Orions Belt is that great little sprinkle of wild, flailing outrage that makes no sense whatsoever.

How could ancient people, with their better visibility of the stars and greater common understanding and reliance on their position for navigation, place things on the ground to match stars?!

But also, Orions Belt is 3 randomly bright stars in a line, not at all nearby to each other in space, that arc across the night sky every evening and change position in the night sky throughout the years. Aligned how?

Aligned how?

Orions Belt is 3 [...] stars in a line

Weil, they're certainly three pyramids in a line, aren't they?
