Mars was observed by the Egyptians because it was the brightest star in the sky. at the time it was just another star and the concept of planet revolving around the sun had not yet been brought forward. However by the time the Egyptians started to take note of the heavenly body's they would certainly have a special place set aside for it as it did not behave as did normal stars.
