In her book 'Genesis of Man' June Austin writes about the Nephilim who were known as the people of the Shem. Not being able at first to find this reference in the Bible I eventually found that it is an alternative translation which in most versions says that there were Giants on Earth in those days - see Genesis 6:4. I then dug a little deeper and had a look at Strong's explanation for the word 'Nephilim'. The result of this search was quite surprising. According to Genesius's Lexicon in ancient versions the meaning was 'The Giant in the Sky, i.e. the constellation Orion, plur. the greater constellations.
Bearing in mind Robert Bauval's examination of the Serdab - in the Egypt Code - of the Pyramid of Djoser (whom I believe to have been Joshua the Bethshemite of 1 Samuel 6), it is quite possible that the so called watchers were Egyptian astronomers who were watching Orion so closely.
