Beschreibung

Ancient Tribal Calendars explores the sophisticated timekeeping methods of indigenous cultures, revealing their profound astronomical knowledge. These ancient civilizations, despite lacking modern technology, developed intricate calendars to predict seasonal changes and align their lives with nature’s rhythms. For example, the Mayan calendar showcases a complex understanding of celestial movements, while Aboriginal Australians used seasonal markers for navigation and resource management. These systems were not merely timekeeping devices; they were holistic integrations of astronomy, mathematics, and cultural practices crucial for societal survival. The book delves into the astronomical observations, socio-cultural roles, and mathematical principles behind these calendars. Moving beyond a purely scientific approach, the book contextualizes these calendars within specific cultural and environmental circumstances. The book progresses by first introducing fundamental astronomical principles, then exploring case studies like the Mayan calendar and Native American lunar calendars, and finally analyzing the mathematical underpinnings. By examining archaeological findings and ethnographical accounts, Ancient Tribal Calendars challenges Eurocentric views of scientific history and offers valuable lessons for sustainable living.

     Around one in one hundred people in the UK are autistic, yet there remains a fundamental misunderstanding of what autism is. It is rare that autistic people get to share their own experiences, show how creative and talented and passionate they are, and how different they are from media stereotypes. 
     This insightful and eye-opening collection of essays, fiction and visual art showcases the immense talents of some of the UK's most exciting writers and artists  − who just happen to be on the spectrum. Here they reclaim the power to speak for themselves and redefine what it means to be autistic.
     Stim invites the reader into the lives, experiences and minds of the eighteen contributors, and asks them to recognise the hurdles of being autistic in a non-autistic world and to uncover the empathy and understanding necessary to continue to champion brilliant yet unheard voices.
