(Without a Telescope) How did the Dogon in Mali know about the Sirius star system?

The Dogon people of Mali, west Africa, preserve a tradition of contact which they pass down from generation to generation; and this information by way of initiation is said to have been given to them by intelligent extraterrestrial beings who come from the Sirius star-system. Far out right...?

These beings, who are hypothesized to have taught the arts of civilization to humans, are claimed by the Dogon to have originated the systems of the Pharaohs of Egypt, the mythologies of Greek civilization, the Epic of Gilgamesh, and so on.

These claims have been scholarly researched in the works of various ethnographers like Marcel Griaule and Germaine Dieterlen to name but a few. A substantial bulk of there scholarship explores "The Sirius Mystery" using comparative linguistic and mythological sources, pointing out resemblances among the Dogon, Egyptian and Sumerian beliefs and symbols.



The “mystery” beckons the question: how did the Dogon come to acquire knowledge of the star "Sirius B" which is the invisible companion star of Sirius A. If you believe as they believe...then you would believe that the Dogon Tribe obtained accurate information on Sirius B by contact with an advanced civilization.

I have often wondered why we have not been able to find evidence of another more ancient and more advanced civilization that was behind the sudden appearance of advanced civilizations like Egypt and Sumeria. Where did all of this cosmological and architectural knowledge come from? Could it have come from angelic beings, or extraterrestrials whom the ancients would have regarded as Gods worthy of worship?

WHAT ARE THE TEACHINGS OF THE DOGON?

Let us study there "Cosmogony" which is an astrophysical study of the origin and evolution of the universe. (In other words it is a specific theory or model of how things began, below is a video of that very model).



Another good video to watch is: The Dogon Code, Linking Egypt and West Africa (on YouTube in 4 parts, based on the works from an author named Laird Scranton and his book: "Hidden Meanings". Scranton explains how the Dogon tribe in West Africa originated Egyptian symbolism, philosophy, physics and even modern science.
