What is ArchaeoAstronomy? 32˚ degree FreeMason and Renegade Scholar Randall Carlson describes the utilization of ArchaeoAstronomy as employed by ancient master builders throughout human history around the world. From Egypt to Angkor Wat, from Stonehenge to Machu Pichu, why were our ancestors seemingly obsessed with observing the motions of the heavens and bringing them down unto the Earth in architectual form?

University of Waikato Inaugural Professorial Lecture Series 2015.
How was time measured in ancient Roman and Greek society? How did emperors and leaders control their people by manipulating time? And what role did the sun and stars play in the calendar?
Professor Robert Hannah, Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences (FASS) at the University of Waikato is an international expert on issues relating to time in the ancient Greek and Roman worlds. His work has focused principally on the medium of archaeoastronomy, a specialised scientific field, but he also has interests in the iconography of Greek mythology, and the Classical tradition in art.
In his Inaugural Professorial Lecture Measuring time in antiquity: Archaeoastronomy in the Greek and Roman worlds, Professor Hannah gives an overview of his extensive work in these areas and presents case studies on recent and planned future research projects he is involved in.
These include a study of the astronomical and calendrical significance of major structures in ancient imperial Rome: the obelisk of Augustus and the Pantheon of Hadrian, and how virtual 3D modelling is being used to uncover the mysteries of these ancient structures; as well as his part in a large team of professionals from around the world working to unlock the secrets of the ancient Greek Antikythera Mechanism, sometimes called the world's first computer, dating to the 2nd Century BCE.
He has Marsden funding worth $590,000 to research the setting of ancient Greek temples within three landscapes – the topographical, the built and the celestial — aiming to understand these iconic remains in their own contexts. This work has led to a joint project in the future at the University of Waikato, which will look at Māori astronomy and its relationship with the local landscape in the North Island.
Before joining the University of Waikato in 2013, as the Dean of FASS, Professor Hannah was Professor in Classics and the Associate Dean of Research for Humanities at Otago University, where he taught courses in Greek and Roman art and had also gained a BA Hons in Greek. He also holds an MPhil in Classical Archaeology from Oxford University, is Honorary Curator of the Classical Collections of the Otago Museum, was elected to a Fellowship of the Society of Antiquaries of London in 2008, and to a Fellowship of the Royal Society of New Zealand in 2013. He is a multiple Marsden Grant winner.

Im a rock art enthusiast hunter. While On a back country hike came across this sacred Archaeoastronomy site. Archaeoastronomy is an old technology used by the ancient peoples to measure the movements of the cosmos, constellations, sun and moon movements cycles. This I believe is a an ancient Calendar to mark the shadows of the Suns movements for the puposes of keeping track of seasonal events and ceremonial events. I keep this sacred site location a secret to honor the Ancient ones, a film/ photography by Ken Thornton

Astronomical phenomena have intrigued people across time. So much so, that for most of recorded history, people have studied the Sun, Moon, stars, comets, and planets, cataloging significant events, while also basing their civilizations and belief structures on such phenomena. The people of Mesoamerica used multiple astronomical markers in creative ways through religion, as well as innovative notions in the form of calendric systems based on the solstices, motions of the planets, and other astronomical events.
Archaeoastronomy is the discipline of studying ancient cultures with the purpose of discovering how a society obtained knowledge of the cosmos, how the knowledge was put to use, and how the knowledge may have differed from knowledge obtained by other societies. Understanding how ancient people viewed their place in the universe as opposed to modern society, with our vast knowledge of our infinitesimally small place in the universe, can assist anthropologists in drawing comparisons of the human ethnocentric mindset throughout the ages.

“Archaeological findings may indicate human occupation in the region dating to at least somewhere around the 10th and 8th millennia BCE. By the 5th millennium BC these peoples had fashioned one of the world's earliest known archeoastronomical devices (roughly contemporary to the Goseck circle in Germany and the Mnajdra megalithic temple complex in Malta).
Astrophysicist Thomas G. Brophy suggests the hypothesis that the southerly line of three stones inside the calendar circle represented the three stars of Orion’s Belt and the other three stones inside the calendar circle represented the shoulders and head stars of Orion as they appeared in the sky. These correspondences were for two dates—circa 4,800 BC and at precessional opposition—representing how the sky "moves" long term. Brophy proposes that the circle was constructed and used circa the later date, and the dual date representation was a conceptual representation of the motion of the sky over a precession cycle.
Near the calendar circle, which is made of smaller stones, there are alignments of large megalithic stones. The southerly lines of these megaliths, Brophy shows, aligned to the same stars as represented in the calendar circle, all at the same epoch, circa 6270 BC. The calendar circle correlation with Orion's belt occurred between 6400 BC and 4900 BC, matching the radio-carbon dating of campfires around the circle.”

Pyramidology, an obsession in Great Britain in the 1860s, 1870s and 1880s, helped usher in the hybrid science of archaeoastronomy, though you won't read about this in the Wikipedia article. Judging past practices as pseudoscience using modern sensitivities, the collaborative authors have banished this, nonetheless, formative genesis reported here.

Howard Crowhursts gives an overview of the most ancient megalithic areas on the planet with revelations about alignments, who built them, lunar geometry and possible grid systems of the area. Howard discussed the relationships between the megalithic sites in Brittany, the Orkneys and North Wales. He also described the undisclosed work completed in the Carnac area using aerial photogeological methods which revealed astonishing results.
Howard Crowhurst was born in North Wales. He has been living in Brittany since 1986 and has become one of the leading experts on the megaithic monuments of the Carnac area. From 1990 to 2004, he was vice president of the Association Archéologique Kergal and as such he took part in the french TV documentary, Carnac. In 2006, he launched the Summer Solstice in Plouharnel event with the Plouharnel Tourist Office. Last year, with several friends, he founded the ACEM, Association pour la Connaissance et l'Etude des Mégalithes (Association for the Knowledge and Study of Megaliths) whose aim (amongst other things) is to create a 3D computer model of the Carnac megalithic complex.

Archaeoastronomy is an invaluable tool that enables us to synchronize the relative chronology of the Bible to absolute dates found in astronomical diaries. With it, we can test various Bible interpretations, for instance, whether Jerusalem was destroyed in 607 BC or 587 BC. We don't have to be experts to do this. The tools we need are within our grasp: a computer, an astronomical diary, and astronomical freeware like Cartes du Ciel. The goal of this video appendix is to empower you to "test all things" for yourself.
Here is a link for Cartes du Ciel: http://www.ap-i.net/skychart/

Archaeoastronomy (also spelled archeoastronomy) is the study of how people in the past "have understood the phenomena in the sky, how they used phenomena in the sky, and what role the sky played in their cultures."Clive Ruggles argues it is misleading to consider archaeoastronomy to be the study of ancient astronomy, as modern astronomy is a scientific discipline, while archaeoastronomy considers other cultures' symbolically rich cultural interpretations of phenomena in the sky. It is often twinned with ethnoastronomy, the anthropological study of skywatching in contemporary societies. Archaeoastronomy is also closely associated with historical astronomy, the use of historical records of heavenly events to answer astronomical problems and the history of astronomy, which uses written records to evaluate past astronomical practice.
Archaeoastronomy uses a variety of methods to uncover evidence of past practices including archaeology, anthropology, astronomy, statistics and probability, and history. Because these methods are diverse and use data from such different sources, the problem of integrating them into a coherent argument has been a long-term issue for archaeoastronomers. Archaeoastronomy fills complementary niches in landscape archaeology and cognitive archaeology. Material evidence and its connection to the sky can reveal how a wider landscape can be integrated into beliefs about the cycles of nature, such as Mayan astronomy and its relationship with agriculture. Other examples which have brought together ideas of cognition and landscape include studies of the cosmic order embedded in the roads of settlements.

A6. When Ancient Jerusalem Was Destroyed: Archaeoastronomy for Everyone!A6. When Ancient Jerusalem Was Destroyed: Archaeoastronomy for Everyone!
Archaeoastronomy is an invaluable tool that enables us to synchronize the relative chronology of the Bible to absolute dates found in astronomical diaries. With it, we can test various Bible interpretations, for instance, whether Jerusalem was destroyed in 607 BC or 587 BC. We don't have to be experts to do this. The tools we need are within our grasp: a computer, an astronomical diary, and astronomical freeware like Cartes du Ciel. The goal of this video appendix is to empower you to "test all things" for yourself. Here is a link for Cartes du Ciel: http://www.ap-i.net/skychart/ Translation of VAT 4956: http://www.caeno.org/pdf/F019_Translation.pdf -

Archaeoastronomy In Mesoamerica
Astronomical phenomena have intrigued people across time. So much so, that for most of recorded history, people have studied the Sun, Moon, stars, comets, and planets, cataloging significant events, while also basing their civilizations and belief structures on such phenomena. The people of Mesoamerica used multiple astronomical markers in creative ways through religion, as well as innovative notions in the form of calendric systems based on the solstices, motions of the planets, and other astronomical events. Archaeoastronomy is the discipline of studying ancient cultures with the purpose of discovering how a society obtained knowledge of the cosmos, how the knowledge was put to use, and how the knowledge may have differed from knowledge obtained by other societies. Understanding how anci... -
Archaeoastronomy of Nabta Playa
“Archaeological findings may indicate human occupation in the region dating to at least somewhere around the 10th and 8th millennia BCE. By the 5th millennium BC these peoples had fashioned one of the world's earliest known archeoastronomical devices (roughly contemporary to the Goseck circle in Germany and the Mnajdra megalithic temple complex in Malta). Astrophysicist Thomas G. Brophy suggests the hypothesis that the southerly line of three stones inside the calendar circle represented the three stars of Orion’s Belt and the other three stones inside the calendar circle represented the shoulders and head stars of Orion as they appeared in the sky. These correspondences were for two dates—circa 4,800 BC and at precessional opposition—representing how the sky "moves" long term. Brophy pr... -

Archaeoastronomy: Monument Proposal
Briefly, a proposed astronomical observation site. This animation was created in Google Sketchup 8, for Professor Bryan Penprase's Archaeoastronomy course at Pomona College (ASTRO 006 PO). A brief demonstration of the motion of the sun's shadow, throughout the course of a day. While the model was positioned at latitude of 34° for the city of Claremont, CA, and the date set for the winter solstice, we cannot attest to the accuracy of the cast shadow rendered in Google Sketchup. -

Archaeoastronomy and Stonehenge - Video Learning - WizScience.com
The prehistoric monument of Stonehenge has long been studied for its possible connections with ancient astronomy. The site is aligned in the direction of the sunrise of the summer solstice and the sunset of the winter solstice. Archaeoastronomers have made a range of further claims about the site's connection to astronomy, its meaning, and its use. Stonehenge has an opening in the henge earthwork facing northeast, and suggestions that particular significance was placed by its builders on the solstice and equinox points have followed. For example, the summer solstice sun rose close to the Heel Stone, and the sun's first rays shone into the centre of the monument between the horseshoe arrangement. While it is possible that such an alignment could be coincidental, this astronomical orient... -

University of Waikato Inaugural Professorial Lecture Series 2015.
How was time measured in ancient Roman and Greek society? How did emperors and leaders control their people by manipulating time? And what role did the sun and stars play in the calendar?
Professor Robert Hannah, Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences (FASS) at the University of Waikato is an international expert on issues relating to time in the ancient Greek and Roman worlds. His work has focused principally on the medium of archaeoastronomy, a specialised scientific field, but he also has interests in the iconography of Greek mythology, and the Classical tradition in art.
In his Inaugural Professorial Lecture Measuring time in antiquity: Archaeoastronomy in the Greek and Roman worlds, Professor Hannah gives an overview of his extensive work in these areas and presents case studies on recent and planned future research projects he is involved in.
These include a study of the astronomical and calendrical significance of major structures in ancient imperial Rome: the obelisk of Augustus and the Pantheon of Hadrian, and how virtual 3D modelling is being used to uncover the mysteries of these ancient structures; as well as his part in a large team of professionals from around the world working to unlock the secrets of the ancient Greek Antikythera Mechanism, sometimes called the world's first computer, dating to the 2nd Century BCE.
He has Marsden funding worth $590,000 to research the setting of ancient Greek temples within three landscapes – the topographical, the built and the celestial — aiming to understand these iconic remains in their own contexts. This work has led to a joint project in the future at the University of Waikato, which will look at Māori astronomy and its relationship with the local landscape in the North Island.
Before joining the University of Waikato in 2013, as the Dean of FASS, Professor Hannah was Professor in Classics and the Associate Dean of Research for Humanities at Otago University, where he taught courses in Greek and Roman art and had also gained a BA Hons in Greek. He also holds an MPhil in Classical Archaeology from Oxford University, is Honorary Curator of the Classical Collections of the Otago Museum, was elected to a Fellowship of the Society of Antiquaries of London in 2008, and to a Fellowship of the Royal Society of New Zealand in 2013. He is a multiple Marsden Grant winner.

Im a rock art enthusiast hunter. While On a back country hike came across this sacred Archaeoastronomy site. Archaeoastronomy is an old technology used by the ancient peoples to measure the movements of the cosmos, constellations, sun and moon movements cycles. This I believe is a an ancient Calendar to mark the shadows of the Suns movements for the puposes of keeping track of seasonal events and ceremonial events. I keep this sacred site location a secret to honor the Ancient ones, a film/ photography by Ken Thornton

Astronomical phenomena have intrigued people across time. So much so, that for most of recorded history, people have studied the Sun, Moon, stars, comets, and planets, cataloging significant events, while also basing their civilizations and belief structures on such phenomena. The people of Mesoamerica used multiple astronomical markers in creative ways through religion, as well as innovative notions in the form of calendric systems based on the solstices, motions of the planets, and other astronomical events.
Archaeoastronomy is the discipline of studying ancient cultures with the purpose of discovering how a society obtained knowledge of the cosmos, how the knowledge was put to use, and how the knowledge may have differed from knowledge obtained by other societies. Understanding how ancient people viewed their place in the universe as opposed to modern society, with our vast knowledge of our infinitesimally small place in the universe, can assist anthropologists in drawing comparisons of the human ethnocentric mindset throughout the ages.

“Archaeological findings may indicate human occupation in the region dating to at least somewhere around the 10th and 8th millennia BCE. By the 5th millennium BC these peoples had fashioned one of the world's earliest known archeoastronomical devices (roughly contemporary to the Goseck circle in Germany and the Mnajdra megalithic temple complex in Malta).
Astrophysicist Thomas G. Brophy suggests the hypothesis that the southerly line of three stones inside the calendar circle represented the three stars of Orion’s Belt and the other three stones inside the calendar circle represented the shoulders and head stars of Orion as they appeared in the sky. These correspondences were for two dates—circa 4,800 BC and at precessional opposition—representing how the sky "moves" long term. Brophy proposes that the circle was constructed and used circa the later date, and the dual date representation was a conceptual representation of the motion of the sky over a precession cycle.
Near the calendar circle, which is made of smaller stones, there are alignments of large megalithic stones. The southerly lines of these megaliths, Brophy shows, aligned to the same stars as represented in the calendar circle, all at the same epoch, circa 6270 BC. The calendar circle correlation with Orion's belt occurred between 6400 BC and 4900 BC, matching the radio-carbon dating of campfires around the circle.”

Subscribe here: http://www.youtube.com/MegalithomaniaUK. . http://www.megalithomania.co.uk/dvd.html - Filmed at the Megalithomania Conference in Glastonbury on 24rd May 2009 by Nautilus AV Productions. Howard Crowhursts gives an overview of the most ancient megalithic areas on the planet with revelations about alignments, who built them, lunar geometry and possible grid systems of the area. Howard discussed the relationships between the megalithic sites in Brittany, the Orkneys and North Wales. He also described the undisclosed work completed in the Carnac area using aerial photogeological methods which revealed astonishing results.
Howard Crowhurst was born in North Wales. He has been living in Brittany since 1986 and has become one of the leading experts on the megaithic monuments of the Carnac area. From 1990 to 2004, he was vice president of the Association Archéologique Kergal and as such he took part in the french TV documentary, Carnac. In 2006, he launched the Summer Solstice in Plouharnel event with the Plouharnel Tourist Office. Last year, with several friends, he founded the ACEM, Association pour la Connaissance et l'Etude des Mégalithes (Association for the Knowledge and Study of Megaliths) whose aim (amongst other things) is to create a 3D computer model of the Carnac megalithic complex.

Archaeoastronomy is an invaluable tool that enables us to synchronize the relative chronology of the Bible to absolute dates found in astronomical diaries. With it, we can test various Bible interpretations, for instance, whether Jerusalem was destroyed in 607 BC or 587 BC. We don't have to be experts to do this. The tools we need are within our grasp: a computer, an astronomical diary, and astronomical freeware like Cartes du Ciel. The goal of this video appendix is to empower you to "test all things" for yourself.

A brief demonstration of the motion of the sun's shadow, throughout the course of a day. While the model was positioned at latitude of 34° for the city of Claremont, CA, and the date set for the winter solstice, we cannot attest to the accuracy of the cast shadow rendered in Google Sketchup.

The prehistoric monument of Stonehenge has long been studied for its possible connections with ancient astronomy. The site is aligned in the direction of the sunrise of the summer solstice and the sunset of the winter solstice. Archaeoastronomers have made a range of further claims about the site's connection to astronomy, its meaning, and its use.
Stonehenge has an opening in the henge earthwork facing northeast, and suggestions that particular significance was placed by its builders on the solstice and equinox points have followed. For example, the summer solstice sun rose close to the Heel Stone, and the sun's first rays shone into the centre of the monument between the horseshoe arrangement. While it is possible that such an alignment could be coincidental, this astronomical orientation had been acknowledged since William Stukeley drew the site and first identified its axis along the midsummer sunrise in 1720.
Stukeley noticed that the Heel Stone was not precisely aligned on the sunrise. The drifting of the position of the sunrise due to the precession of the equinoxes since the monument's erection does not account for this imprecision. Recently, evidence has been found for a neighbour to the Heel Stone, no longer extant. The second stone may have instead been one side of a 'solar corridor' used to frame the sunrise.
Stukeley and the renowned astronomer Edmund Halley attempted what amounted to the first scientific attempt to date a prehistoric monument. Stukeley concluded the Stonehenge had been set up "by the use of a magnetic compass to lay out the works, the needle varying so much, at that time, from true north." He attempted to calculate the change in magnetic variation between the observed and theoretical Stonehenge sunrise, which he imagined would relate to the date of construction. Their calculations returned three dates, the earliest of which, 460 BC, was accepted by Stukeley. That was incorrect, but this early exercise in dating is a landmark in field archaeology.

Archaeoastronomy is the study of how ancient people have understood and used the phenomena in the sky. Archaeoastronomy is not the history of astronomy; In fact it focuses on the cultural and antropoligical aspect of skywaching in the past. This academic field brings together several disciplines such as archaeology, anthropology, astronomy, statistics and probability, mythology, and history. This session is a general introduction to Archaeoastronomy along with discussing about a few examples of the recent work done by scholars in Iran and the World.
