Are there professional academic conferences in archaeoastronomy or cultural astronomy?
Yes. SEAC meets usually once a year to share current research projects and news with members. The ‘Oxford’ Conferences on Archaeoastronomy are a series of international meetings, normally held every three to five years, that cover all aspects of cultural astronomy and are world-wide in scope. Numerous “one-off” and national meetings are held from time to time, as are sessions on archaeoastronomy at wider archaeological or astronomical congresses. The triennial INSAP (Inspiration of Astronomical Phenomena) conferences have a broader remit covering the many and various cultural impacts of human perceptions about the day- and night-time sky.
