دراسات فلكية قديمة
الدراسات الفلكية القديمة ، هي دراسة كيفية فهم الشعوب القديمة لظاهرة ما في السماء ، وكيفة إستخدامها وماهية الدور الذي تلعبه السماء في ثقافاتهم. [1]
وتهتم تلك الدراسات بالمعرفة الفلكية لدى القدماء. وتعتمد على ما يبذله الباحثون في شتى المجالات، منها علم الآثار والفلك والتاريخ وعلم الإنسان. ويعتقد الباحثون في حقل الدراسات الفلكية القديمة بأن إلمامهم بمعارف الأقدمين ومعتقداتهم في الكون المحيط بهم، يجعلهم أقدر على فهم تلك الحضارات القديمة. يضاف إلى ذلك ما تركه الأقدمون من مُدَوَّنات تُسجل ملاحظاتهم عن الأفلاك والنجوم، مما يساعد المعاصرين على القيام بحساباتهم الفلكية عن الأجرام السماوية. [2]
يستقي دارسو الفلك القديم معلوماتهم عن معارف الأقدمين الفلكية من المخطوطات القديمة وغيرها. فقد دلت السجلات الأثرية، على سبيل المثال، على معرفة هنود المايا بأمريكا الوسطى، بمواقع الشمس والقمر والأفلاك والنجوم. وكشفت جداول معينة عن معرفتهم الشاملة بحركة كوكب الزهرة الذي كانوا يعبدونه؛ إذ اشتملت هذه الجداول على تقويم يبيِّن مواقيت ظهور كوكب الزهرة في السماء واحتجابه. وقد قاموا بتشييد أبوابهم ونوافذهم وسلالم مبانيهم في اتجاهات تنطبق على خط طلوع الزهرة في الأفق.
ساعدت الدراسات الفلكية القديمة الباحثين في استنتاجهم الخاص بالكيفية التي كان ينتفع بها الأقدمون من أنواع معينة من المباني، وعلى سبيل المثال، الأشكال المستديرة المبنية من أحجار ضخمة، والتي يرجع تاريخ بعضها إلى أكثر من 5,000 سنة، توجد في مواقع متفرقة من بريطانيا. فقد تَبيَّن لدارسي الفلك القديم، أن هذه المنشآت الحجرية كانت مرشدًا للأقدمين عن مواقيت شروق الشمس وبزوغ القمر وزوالهما في فترات محددة خلال السنة. ويتيقن الباحثون من أن الأشكال الدائرية قد تكون ضربًا من التقاويم. أو للتنبؤ بها عن الكسوف والخسوف.

تاريخ الدراسات الفلكية القديمة
. The approach in the New World, where anthropologists began to consider more fully the role of astronomy in Amerindian civilizations, was markedly different. They had access to sources that the prehistory of Europe lacks such as ethnographies[4][5] and the historical records of the early colonizers. Following the pioneering example of Anthony Aveni,[6][7] this allowed New World archaeoastronomers to make claims for motives which in the Old World would have been mere speculation. The concentration on historical data led to some claims of high accuracy that were comparatively weak when compared to the statistically led investigations in Europe.[8]

Another motive for studying the sky is to understand and explain the universe. In these cultures myth was a tool for achieving this and the explanations, while not reflecting the standards of modern science, are cosmologies.
