Kuwaiti researcher explains Arab skytime reading
The article highlights the ancient historical and cultural Arab relationship with the sky and stars, where Arab societies used astronomical observations to determine directions, understand weather changes, measure time, and identify agricultural seasons, through symbolic names and knowledge maps based on language and oral stories. Researcher Badria Al-Salem focuses on her project "Resistant Atlas: Names of the Sun," which reinterprets ancient methods of understanding time and place through the sky. She explains that this knowledge was transmitted via stories and names that conveyed information about location, size, and season. She emphasizes that the relationship with the sky remains adaptable for development, and that translating this knowledge into modern digital and artistic tools can revitalize it and integrate it into our contemporary understanding of the universe. She underscores the importance of astronomical heritage in shaping human identity and Arab culture.
