He walks through the alignment at Stonehenge, where the rising sun on the summer solstice passes over the heel stone, through the uprights, and illuminates the altar stone at the center. Then he draws the connection: thousands of miles away in Chaco Canyon, New Mexico, ancient builders were making the exact same celestial observation roughly two thousand years ago. Different cultures, separated by vast distances and time, yet they were tracking the same solar event with precision. The question becomes unavoidable: why were so many ancient peoples independently focused on this specific moment in the sky? What knowledge were they encoding, and what drove them to mark these alignments so deliberately in stone?
