Archaeoastronomy in Archaeology and Ethnography

Papers from the annual meeting of SEAC (European Society for Astronomy in Culture) held in Kecskemet in Hungary in 2004. The essays are concerned with the influence which celestial phonemena have had on ancient cultures. Papers range from the chronology of the Exodus period of the Bible to the orientation of Greek temples, burial mounds and megaliths. The ethography section includes several essays on eastern European folk traditions.
