If you love everything that has to do with the sun, moon, and stars, and have marveled at Stonehenge or wondered the purpose of Machu Picchu, then this book is for you. Explore hidden mystical sites and ancient societies in this beautifully detailed book that examines the little-known study of archaeoastronomy (the study of ancient astronomy)

Celestial Geometry by Ken Taylor explores over 50 destinations around the world, such as Egypt, Japan, Spain, Peru and Mexico. Visiting World Heritage Sites as well as some untouched historic locations, you will get to discover the ancient societies that built some of our most recognizable monuments and temples.

Ken Taylor has an established reputation for carefully researched and lucid writing exploring ancient traditions still relevant to modern times. He has worked as an archaeologist and has written extensively on Palaeolithic alignments, celestial events, earth energies, astronomy and mythology.

Explore mystical places like Stonehenge, Chichén Itzá, Chaco Canyon, and the ancient Temples of Malta while unlocking the connection between the heavens and our ancient sites.

With dedicated sections on the Sun, the Moon, and the Planets and Stars, Taylor talks us through the astronomy and science behind solstices and equinoxes, eclipses and the cosmos, before showing us around the archaic sites. Through these pages discover how each site is uniquely aligned with the celestial.

Taylor’s multicultural perspective gifts us with insight into how different cultures used the sites and the unique ancient myths associated them and the heavens. Such as the Hare of Immortality, that the Chinese believe lives on the moon or Tchingal, the primal, fierce and fearless emu, who was banished to the milky way.
