Stonehenge Time

Stonehenge Time explores the idea that ancient megalithic sites, like Stonehenge, were sophisticated astronomical observatories and calendar systems.
It examines whether these monuments were intentionally designed to track celestial movements, offering insights into the intellectual capabilities of early societies.
Discover the potential use of these sites for predicting seasons and the cultural significance of timekeeping in early societies.

The book journeys through archaeoastronomy, analyzing astronomical alignments corresponding to solar and lunar events.
It investigates how timekeeping and astronomical knowledge influenced ancient beliefs and practices.

The approach is to guide the reader through the main concepts of archaeoastronomy by providing a detailed analysis of Stonehenge, a comparative study of other sites worldwide, and an exploration of the cultural context.

The text argues that megalithic structures represent deliberate attempts to codify the cosmos, integral to survival and cultural identity.
This challenges the notion that complex astronomical knowledge is a product of advanced civilizations.

With evidence including surveys, statistical analyses, and reinterpretations of archaeological data, the book progresses from introducing archaeoastronomy to analyzing Stonehenge, comparing global sites, and exploring cultural contexts.
