Title: « The First Astronomers: How Indigenous Elders Read the Stars »
Abstract: Our eyes have been drawn away from the heavens to our screens. We no longer look to the sky to forecast the weather, predict the seasons or plant our gardens. Most of us cannot even see the Milky Way. But First Nations Elders of the world still maintain this knowledge, and there is much we can learn from them. These Elders are expert observers of the stars. They teach that everything on the land is reflected in the sky, and everything in the sky is reflected on the land. How does this work, and how can we better understand our place in the universe? Guided by the teachings of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders, Duane Hamacher will discuss the wisdom of the first astronomers.
