description This monograph presents the results of a study of orientations in prehispanic architecture of western and northern Mesoamerica. Analyzing the alignment data collected with field measurements for a number of civic and ceremonial buildings at 21 archaeological sites, we have been able to conclude that they were largely oriented on astronomical grounds. Since the study area is extensive and culturally diverse, while the data sample is relatively small, the orientations that have been analyzed exhibit considerable variability.

Knjiga predstavlja rezultate raziskave orientacij v predšpanski arhitekturi zahodne in severne Mezoamerike. Analize podatkov so pokazale, da so bile pomembne stavbe povečini usmerjene na osnovi astronomskih referenc. Orientacije se večinoma nanašajo na Sončeva vzhajališča in zahajališča na določene datume, nekatere pa morda na skrajne položaje Lune ali Venere na horizontu. V razporeditvi intervalov med datumi, ki jih registrirajo solarne orientacije, so opazne koncentracije okoli nekaterih mnogokratnikov 13 in 20 dni. Distribucija datumov v letu, podobnosti z vzorci orientacij v drugih predelih Mezoamerike in kontekstualni podatki, vključno z etnografskim gradivom, kažejo, da so solarne orientacije omogočale uporabo opazovalnih koledarjev, ki so olajševali načrtovanje poljedelskih dejavnosti in s temi povezanih obredov. Dejstvo, da so nekatere stavbe usmerjene proti Sončevim položajem na datume, ki jih zaznamuje veliko število orientacij drugod po Mezoameriki, je posebno zanimivo, saj predstavlja najbolj prepričljiv dokaz, da so tudi na zahodu in severu prevladovala ista načela usmerjanja, obenem pa prispeva k razumevanju kulturnih povezav med posameznimi regijami. 2022-04-01T11:49:20Z 2022-04-01T11:49:20Z 2016 book ONIX_20220401_9789612548926_313 2335-4208 9789612548926 https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/80214 spa Prostor, kraj, čas image/jpeg Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International https://zalozba.zrc-sazu.si/p/P12 https://omp.zrc-sazu.si/zalozba/catalog/view/1011/4302/521-3 ZRC SAZU, Založba ZRC 10.3986/9789612548926 Knjiga predstavlja rezultate raziskave orientacij v predšpanski arhitekturi zahodne in severne Mezoamerike.
