天空中的火:土著口头传统中的南方之光

Fire in the sky: The southern lights in Indigenous oral traditions

Duane W. Hamacher

摘要:

澳大利亚部分地区有幸在今年的南极光(被称为南极光)表演中看到夜空中耀眼的灯光。极光在澳大利亚土著天文学传统中具有重要意义。原住民将极光与火、死亡、血和预兆联系在一起,与美洲原住民社区有许多相似之处。

英文摘要:

Parts of Australia have been privileged to see dazzling lights in the night sky as the Aurora Australis (known as the southern lights) puts on a show this year. Aurorae are significant in Australian Indigenous astronomical traditions. Aboriginal people associate aurorae with fire, death, blood, and omens, sharing many similarities with Native American communities.
