العنوان الفرعي للكتابSkywatching In Three Great Ancient Cultures
وصف الكتابThis text unravels the story of new revelations about three of the most popular and mysterious puzzles in ancient astronomy: the meaning of Stonehenge; what the Maya Code was about; and why the elaborate Inca City of Cuzco was built. It surveys findings that reveal fresh interpretations of the astronomical beliefs of each of the cultures. The book includes "naked eye" observing, pointing the reader to the night sky and the phenomena observed by the ancient cultures; illustrations of such things as Mayan stone tablets and ancient drawings of the constellations.
المراجعة التحريريةIn this work, Tony Aveni, a leading archaeoastronomer from Colgate University, has written a marvelous book about how the celestial rhythms influenced the cultures of the past...fascinating reading.--Science Books and Films "Clearly, if we can know more about these people, their religion, their culture, their hopes and dreams, according to Dr. Aveni, it will make our understanding of their astronomy more meaningful. This is a good book worth several readings!"--Planetarian
عن المؤلفANTHONY AVENI is the Russell B. Colgate Professor of Astronomy and Anthropology at Colgate University. He is the author of Empires of Time, Conversing with the Planets, and Behind the Crystal Ball.
