Exploring Ancient Skies brings together the methods of archaeology andthe insights of modern astronomy to explore the science of astronomy as itwas practiced in various cultures prior to the invention of the telescope.The book reviews an enormous and growing body of literature on thecultures of the ancient Mediterranean, the Far East, and the New World(particularly Mesoamerica), putting the ancient astronomical materials intotheir archaeological and cultural contexts. The authors begin with anoverview of the field and proceed to essential aspects of naked-eyeastronomy, followed by an examination of specific cultures. The bookconcludes by taking into account the purposes of ancient astronomy:astrology, navigation, calendar regulation, and (not least) theunderstanding of our place and role in the universe. Skies are recreatedto display critical events as they would have appeared to ancientobservers--events such as the supernova of 1054 A.D., the 'lion horoscope,'and the Star of Bethlehem. Exploring Ancient Skies provides acomprehensive overview of the relationships between astronomy andother areas of human investigation. It will be useful as a reference forscholars and as a text for students in both astronomy and archaeology,and will be of compelling interest to readers who seek a broadunderstanding of our collective intellectual history.
