[RC] 8 days a week - Flora HillmanUh,
Bruce? Wednesday was Oden's Day, or (in our modern language) Woden's
Day. The day following belonged to Thor, and the day after that to
Frieda. Tuesday was named after the war God Tyr. All
these Gods belonged to the Norse. Not sure where your Egyptians come into

cycle ??
I never heard

it probably would have been the day we call Friday. They would have
called.....what?
