A propos de cet article

Hardcover. Stonehenge is one of the most famous ancient monuments in the world and its solar alignment is one of its most important features. Yet although archaeologists have learned a huge amount about this iconic monument and its development, a sense of mystery continues about its purpose. This helps fuel numerous theories and common misconceptions, particularly concerning its relationship to the sky and the heavenly bodies. A desire to cut through this confusion was the inspiration for this book, and it fills a gaping hole in the existing literature.The book provides both an introduction to Stonehenge and its landscape and an introduction to archaeoastronomythe study of how ancient peoples understood phenomena in the sky, and what role the sky played in their cultures. Archaeoastronomy is a specialism critical to explaining the relationship of Stonehenge and nearby monuments to the heavens, but interpreting archaeoastronomical evidence has often proved highly controversial in the past. Stonehenge: Sighting the Sun explains why. It makes clear which ideas about Stonehenge are generally accepted and which are not, with clear graphics to explain complicated concepts.This beautifully illustrated book shines new light on this most famous of ancient monuments, and is the first in-depth study of this fascinating topic suitable both for specialists and for anyone with a general interest.The volume includes a Foreword by British archaeologist and academic Professor Sir Barry Cunliffe. This beautifully illustrated book shines new light on this most famous of ancient monuments, and is the first in-depth study of archaeology and astronomy at Stonehenge for both researchers and the public alike. A very important contribution to the field, it is a book that should be widely read. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
