关于此电子书

""Sky Worship"" explores the fascinating relationship between ancient sky observations and the birth of religious thought. It argues that early religions were profoundly shaped by humanity's understanding of celestial events, moving beyond mere allegory to show how the cosmos influenced cultural practices and codified doctrines.

The book reveals how ancient civilizations, dependent on celestial cycles for survival, wove astronomical phenomena like solstices and lunar cycles into their spiritual beliefs.

The book journeys through history, astronomy, and anthropology, examining specific regions like ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, Mesoamerica, and early China. Each chapter details the region's astronomical knowledge and religious practices, demonstrating the links between the two.

By reconstructing ancient skies with astronomical software and analyzing archaeological findings, ""Sky Worship"" offers a unique, evidence-based perspective, bridging science and religion.

The book's interdisciplinary approach provides a holistic understanding of how early cultures integrated their observations of the sky into their religious systems. It progresses from introducing fundamental astronomical concepts to analyzing their manifestation in various civilizations, ultimately showing how these traditions left a lasting impact on modern religions and philosophical thought.
