What is the Universe?
What is the sense of the Moon, the Sun, the stars and the planets that we observe with our eyes?
And what is our place in the space?

Like us, ancient astronomers first encountered the Universe through their naked-eye observations. Therefore you begin your journey into ancient astronomy by walking through the first primordial models of the Universe. Ipathia, scientist and astronomer of Alexandria of Egypt, guides you to the discovery of ancient cosmologies.

The Sumerians, the Maya, the Aztecs, the Incas, the Egyptians and the Greek s will show you their cosmologies, which conducted to the Ptolemaic model that has dominated in the history of astronomy until the 16 th century. This is an adventure whose real protagonist is the human eye.
