For a long time now the scientific establishment has shown a resistance and even disregard to the idea of astronomy having been practiced in prehistory.
Thankfully, the question of whether astronomy was practiced is now beyond debate, and the doors are open for us to discover the extent of this important development in human awareness.
The earliest suggestion of an astronomical record comes in the form of notched bones, a finding which A. Marshak and others have interpreted as Palaeolithic lunar counts. While this theory is by no means substantiated, there are several ancient structures which have a clear astronomical nature in their design and the high frequency of association between megaliths and astronomy suggests an mutual relationship.
