based on these videos, what can you conclude? people long ago had no way or method for measuring the positions and movements of the sun, planets or stars, as they had no telescopes with which to make those observations. ancient skywatchers of north and central america built places where accurate measurements of the positions and movements of the sun, the stars and the planets could be made. they were able to determine compass directions of north, south, east and west, and tell when the seasons began, and even determine the motions of the planet venus. ancient american skywatchers could do all of the things mentioned in answer 2, and they could even make detailed observations of the planets uranus, neptune and pluto (although the incas, the maya and the aztecs could not agree whether pluto should after all, be considered as a planet.) ancient american skywatchers could do all of the things mentioned in answer 2, except they could not predict where the sun would be on any given date. aliens from the andromeda galaxy came to earth many years ago, and used their extraterrestrial technology to build these ancient observatories as a prelude to invading our planet and stealing all of our chocolate.
