Archaeoastronomy in the Old World

Author:D. C. Heggie

Summary:The papers in this book, summarising the proceedings of a conference at the University of Oxford in September 1981, are concerned with shedding light on a controversial aspect of European prehistory: was astronomy practised in the late Neolithic and bronze ages?
