Ep 105: Stonehenge and Ancient Astronomy

Zach hits Rafe with another spontaneous topic, this week it is Stonehenge and other megaliths.Ancient peoples spent more time with the stars than we do and through that they came to understand more deeply the natural calendar that the stars demonstrate.  The connection between the location of the rising and setting of the sun and the stars that sit behind it gave ancient Man the capacity to deduce the periodicity of the seasons and the natural cycle of the world.  Monuments to this calendar of the world dot the planet and reveal the advanced nature of our ancestors.*****As always, you can reach the Buf at [email protected]*****As you know, this is an independent podcast so your hosts also carry all the expenses of running this podcast.  As such, some of you have asked how you can help out.  Well, here's the answer: support us on Buy Me a Coffee:https://buymeacoffee.com/bufnagleOn this page, you can do a really nice thing like send us a couple dollars to help cover the cost of recording and hosting and microphones and research and all that.  Any little bit really helps!  Thank you in advance!!!
