I'm not sure if they ever saw it. The only time I know it was seen in Egypt was in 1872. If they did see it, they probably thought it was a sign from Nut, who they believed was the Goddess of the sky.

Whats the Name of Solar Magnetic storms?

I think you are referring to Aurora (phenomenon), a luminous atmospheric phenomenon. It is named specifically, according to its location, aurora borealis (northern lights) or aurora australis (southern lights). The term aurora polaris, polar lights, is a general name for both. The aurora consist of rapidly shifting patches and dancing columns of light of various hues.
