Archaeoastronomy on YouTube

Jun 26, 2009 Alun Science, The Past Archaeoastronomy, Ethnoastronomy, southwest, USA

I’ve just found this video on the 2009 Con­fer­ence on Archae­oastro­nomy of the Amer­ican South­w­est. The 2009 present­a­tions look like they were really inter­est­ing. As a whole I find archae­oastro­nomy in the Amer­ican south­w­est inter­est­ing because the meth­ods used are often very dif­fer­ent to Europe. We simply don’t have the eth­no­graphic data for a lot of sites over here. How­ever, the wealth of his­tor­ical records from Clas­sical Greece and Rome leads me to think there might be some use­ful tips I could pick up on method. I shall have to start sav­ing my pen­nies and see if I can afford to go to the next one.

In the mean­time there’s plenty of other inter­est­ing films to watch on John Sefick’s You­Tube Chan­nel.
