Archaeoastronomy - Gallery of amazing ancient observatories

Post by MichelleH »

Amazing observatories of the ancient world

To help celebrate the International Year of Astronomy, take an armchair tour of the most intriguing ancient observatories, guided by three leading archaeoastronomy experts: John Carlson of the University of Maryland, Ed Krupp of Griffith Observatory, and David Dearborn of Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. The tour proceeds backwards in time, beginning with sites that were built most recently.
