SUMMARY:Joint CAS/Prehistoric Society Lecture – Sighting the Sun — and 
 moon? — at Stonehenge with Clive Ruggles
DESCRIPTION:As Emeritus Professor of Archaeoastronomy at the University of 
 Leicester\, Clive has spent a lifetime investigating ancient people’s pe
 rceptions of the sky and the uses they make of what they see there. Archae
 oastronomy is an interdisciplinary field prone to misinterpretation and sp
 eculation and Clive's particular concern is to find the best ways to combi
 ne approaches from “hard science” and anthropology in order to reach s
 ensible and robust conclusions. In 2017 he was awarded  the Royal Astrono
 mical Society’s Agnes Mary Clerke Medal for a “lifetime of distinguish
 ed work in the overlapping areas of archaeology\, astronomy and the histor
 y of science". He is also a former President of the Prehistoric Society.\n
 \nThe Zoom link for this online lecture will be available from our Ticket 
 Tailor box office from 2 weeks before the date of the event.
