Was the Egyptians understanding of the movement of the earth's rotation that great and we lost alot of our understanding of science and the like during the dark ages?

Yes. Thats exactly what happened when Rome fell. All of that knowledge was long forgotten when the darkages came. So I think its very plausible that they had that knowledge and that it was just lost, as someone said earlier, in the fire at the library in Alexandria for example.
