This link here should guide you to Graham's thoughts on the handbags.
Also perhaps consulting the Oracle of Google on this matter may be more productive than asking redditors.
Equinoxes was the word I was looking for lol, I think astronomy was up until the last thousand years akin to our universities for a lot of these star gazing cultures. For me they all seem to be trying to portray a similar event & in a time when the workings of the universe were unknown, religion/lore worked to record the data.
I'm tempted to think they all portray the comet that preceded the YD event with Gobekli Tepe being the earliest record we have. The same images appearing over millennia & continents convince me whatever is being portrayed was of great importance & visible across most of the planet.
Sweatman & Tsikritsis published an interesting paper: https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Decoding-Gobekli-Tepe-with-archaeoastronomy%3A-What-Sweatman-Tsikritsis/033fbf0d9410da00e4f11b8affadc1ff6cb1de06/figure/6

FFS, that white supremacy nonsense is exhausting, and their fall back to try to paint it all with a wide brush to dismiss what they CAN'T (I can't emphasize that enough) explain or have the evidence and data adhere to their ~~fallacy~~ paradigm.
This book touches on this and I think it's a great resource, the aliens part of this I think just makes this an eye roll and shouldn't be part of this anymore.

You guys may also be interested in the books by Kathleen O’Neal Gear and her husband like “People of the lakes”.They’re fictional but the authors are both archeologists and write the books as historically accurately as possible. Basically the plot is fictional but all the details are not.
The people series goes chronologically telling the stories of the natives of North America. I’ve really enjoyed them personally.
Here’s a link to one

Good on you teach. Best we approach the topic open and honest - we have more speculation and theory than universal fact.

This book has some interesting ideas: Four Young Astronomers and the Arthurian Sky Questshttps://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B09NWDT3DR/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_7J3GQ9AVXP8Y5MBKBM8A
Btw anyone interested in what else happened 780,000 years ago should look into Bruce Fenton's work. He has studied signs of genetic intervention and potential fallout from a crashed craft during this time period.

Check out these strange rocks I found around there. Zoom out and the Eye of the Sahara is southeast of there (down and left). They look organised, but at least water worn like river rocks.
