My research interests in archaeology include palaeoIndian research, communal hunting and northern plains archaeology and archaeoastronomy. I have a strong interest in traditional knowledge and I look for its meaning and significance to better understand the archaeological record. I contend that traditional knowledge has much to offer archaeology as a method for identifying archaeological sites and for interpreting sites that lack artifacts. I see traditional knowledge as a system of knowing about the environment and I investigate it within the context of ethnoscience.

It notes that constellations are groups of stars that form imaginary patterns representing people, animals or objects and that the earliest likely date back to prehistory.
Star of bethleham
The document discusses evidence that a series of astronomical events in the skies over Jerusalem, including multiple conjunctions of Jupiter, Venus, and Regulus between 3 BC and 2 BC, along with a nova, likely served as the "Star of Bethlehem" that guided the Magi to visit the newborn Jesus. It summarizes the astronomical events in detail and argues they would have signaled to the Magi that a new Jewish king had been born, as they followed Jupiter's path through the night sky until it stopped over Bethlehem on December 25, 2 BC. The document also discusses other evidence supporting Jesus' birth occurring between 3 BC to 2 BC.
Planet Uranus
Uranus has 27 known moons that can be divided into three groups: 13 inner moons that are closely connected to Uranus's rings, 5 major moons that are spherical in shape, and 9 irregular moons in distant elliptical orbits. The 5 major moons - Miranda, Ariel, Umbriel, Titania, and Oberon - range in size from 472 km to 1578 km in diameter and are believed to have formed from an accretion disk around Uranus after its formation. Titania is the largest moon.
