V11: Astronomy of the Americas

Students study the Hupa people of California, plains and mountain tribes of Wyoming, the Anasazi of New Mexico, the Mayan people of Mexico and Central America, and the Incan people of Peru to discover how they view the heavens, how they are alike and different. They observe moon cycles and changes in the sunrise and sunset positions on the horizon and learn how solar observations help Native Americans stay in tune with the harmonies of nature. Activities include Mayan and Aztec number systems, observing changes in real sunset positions, and learning about Venus as either the "Morning" or "Evening Star".
