La Arqueoastronomía en Europa: la singularidad del caso español

  • Juan Antonio Belmonte Avilés
Keywords: Social Sciences, Archaeoastronomy in Spain, History of Research

Abstract

Archaeoastronomy is a scientific discipline with a relatively short history in Spain. Straddling social sciences and astronomy, it uses the powerful tools of the latter at the service of the former in an attempt to approach the vision of the cosmos of our ancestors. In the present essay, we will analyze the current status of the discipline and will study part of its foundations and epistemology. Finally, a brief historical sketch of its development in Spain will be presented within the wider framework of European archaeoastronomy.
