Dark Sky ConversationsS03E05 Professor Clive RugglesJoin Professor Clive Ruggles as a special guest from this recent Dark Sky Aus webinar as he discusses latest research in a subject that’s close to his heart and in which he’s a world authority, Archaeoastronomy.Archaeoastronomy (also spelled archeoastronomy) is the interdisciplinary or multidisciplinary study of how people in the past "have understood the phenomena in the sky, how they used these phenomena and what role the sky played in their cultures". Clive Ruggles argues it is misleading to consider archaeoastronomy to be the study of ancient astronomy, as modern astronomy is a scientific discipline, while archaeoastronomy considers symbolically rich cultural interpretations of phenomena in the sky by other cultures. It is often twinned with ethnoastronomy, the anthropological study of skywatching in contemporary societies. Archaeoastronomy is also closely associated with historical astronomy, the use of historical records of heavenly events to answer astronomical problems and the history of astronomy, which uses written records to evaluate past astronomical practice. (Wikipedia)Marnie Ogg talks with some of the brightest minds about light pollution and ways to protect our night skies.For more details, visit the Dark Sky website: https://www.darkskytraveller.com.au/podcastSubscribe, rate and review at Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify or all good podcast apps.Stream on demand from https://www.bitesz.com/show/dark-sky-conversations/
