The Astronomy Center has provided educational resources to introductory astronomy educators since 2003. Over the past 20 years, the rapid pace of discovery has rendered some of our linked resources obsolete. Thus, the Astronomy Center will be decommissioned on March 1, 2022. Our highest quality resources will be retained on ComPADRE.org.

This article includes a list of non-technical sources on the study of astronomy in various cultures. It is designed to help teachers, students, and members of the public learn more about non-traditional astronomies. Archeoastronomy is the branch of archeology that looks at the astronomical ideas and monuments of ancient cultures, and many resources from this field are included, as well as references to folklore and a few current issues. Technical monographs and journal articles are not included.
