Night Skies of Native America General Meeting
Wednesday, 1 November 2017 8:00 PM
How do Native Americans believe the universe came into existence? How does the way that Native Americans view the night sky, differ from the classical eighty-eight western constellations used by contemporary astronomers today? Do indigenous populations in South America, and North America, differ on their interpretations, and their belief systems as part of their stellar knowledge? In this talk, Paul Curnow will introduce you to their cultures and peoples, in addition to some of their cosmogony.
