IAU Symposium 278, the ninth in the series of 'Oxford' conferences on cultural astronomy,
presents a diverse range of disciplinary perspectives on a set of problems that continue
to raise exciting and challenging new research questions and promote vigorous debate.
It extends discussions about cultural astronomy beyond the global community of 'Western'
academics to focus on the ethnoastronomy and archaeoastronomy of South America, Central
and North America, and elsewhere. The first IAU Symposium devoted to this topic not
only discusses new discoveries and interpretations but also considers broader issues
of mutual interest across disciplines in cultural astronomy, such as field methodology
and social theory. This volume is valuable not just to researchers working in these
fields, but to anyone who takes an interest in the protection of astronomical heritage
and the preservation of dark skies
