The first part recounts the history of a series of discoveries by Otto Neugebauer, Bartel van der Waerden, and Asger Aaboe which step by step uncovered the meaning of Column $\Phi$, the mysterious leading column in Babylonian System A lunar tables. Their research revealed that Column $\Phi$ gives the length in days of the 223-month Saros eclipse cycle and explained the remarkable algebraic relations connecting Column $\Phi$ to other columns of the lunar tables describing the duration of 1, 6, or 12 synodic months. Part two presents John Britton’s theory of the genesis of Column $\Phi$ and the System A lunar theory starting from a fundamental equation relating the columns discovered by Asger Aaboe.

according to System A, all of them but X in evidence in the published corpus of texts, and each having the anomalistic month as its period. Rules for converting values of Φ into corresponding values of the other functions were under control, though they lacked motivation, but only the significance of F and G was known. A text published by NEUGEBAUER in 1957 (the Saros text) and Text E below made it possible to identify all of these functions with reasonable certainty as well as to make astronomical sense of their established relations. Thus, for a given syzygy the associated values of the five functions have the following significance, beginning with the two that have long been identified: daily progress of moon = F° length of preceding month = 29^{d} + G^{H} length of subsequent 223 months = 6585^{d} + Φ^{H} length of preceding 12 months = 354^{d} + Λ^{H} difference between a constant year and preceding 12 months = X^{d.} All of these functions, save perhaps F, are artificial; they are first approximations, reflecting only the variation in lunar velocity, and resting on the preliminary assumption that syzygies are evenly distributed in longitude. G and, as I have discovered since this manuscript went to press, also Λ receive corrections for solar anomaly. It appeared that when the values of Φ were to be used, the zig-zag function representing Φ was truncated at effective extrema (F was treated similarly). Texts A, B, C, D below give evidence of aberrant Φ-G relations. Text F presents several variants of the function F, all truncated at the same values.

Mich. Inv. 29, purchased in Egypt in 1920 along with the astrological fragments of P. Mich. IE 149 by B.P. Grenfell and Francis W. Kelsey, is unknown. The color of the papyrus is medium brown. Both sides contain two columns separated by a margin of 1.5 cm on the front (?>) and 1.8 cm on the back (t). The intercolumnium is in different areas of the pa pyrus on the front and the back, so that the vertical break in the piece intersects the middle of the second column of the front side and the middle of the margin on the back. The different handwrit ing on each side and the different location of the intercolumnia indicate that the piece is a frag ment of a payrus roll, rather than part of a codex and, henceforward, we will use “interior” for the front and “exterior” for the back. The text on the interior side is written with a sharper pen, the letters are more rounded and bilinearity is more closely adhered to. The text on the exterior side has entirely different letter forms, the hand tends to connect letters more, appears to have written more hastily and is clearly more informal (for more on the palaeography see below). Based on the proposed reconstruction of col. i.6 to 9 and col. ii.6 of the interior side, it can be concluded with some certainty that the columns on the interior are rather narrow, each line con taining about 18 to 20 letters (cf. P. Lond. 1.130,1/n A.D. horoscope which has 15-18 letters per line). The columns on the exterior seem to be wider, but their exact size cannot be determined. }, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {Mathieu}, file = {ambuehl1995pmichinv29.pdf:ambuehl1995pmichinv29/ambuehl1995pmichinv29.pdf:PDF}, location = {Bonn}, publisher = {Verlag Dr. Rudolf Habelt}, shortjournal = {ZPE}, sortkey = {Ambuehl.A:1995_PMichInv292AstrologicalTreatises}, timestamp = {2016-06-03}, } @Article{amiet1954problemes2, author = {Amiet, Pierre}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004astralmyth} [Astral Mythology]}, journal = {Revue d’assyriologie et d’archéologie orientale}, title = {Problèmes d’iconographie mésopotamienne (II)}, year = {1954}, subtitle = {Déesse nue et déesse ailée}, volume = {48}, number = {1}, pages = {32--36}, issn = {03736032}, url = {http://www.jstor.org/stable/23294682}, urldate = {2014-04-11}, bibmas = {1}, copyright = {Copyright © 1954 Presses Universitaires de France}, file = {amiet1954problemes2.pdf:amiet1954problemes2/amiet1954problemes2.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, jstor_formatteddate = {1954}, keywords = {BM 89089, AO 10434, Morgan-Porada 220, UE 10:92}, language = {french}, location = {Paris}, publisher = {Presses Universitaires de France}, shortjournal = {RA}, sortkey = {Amiet.P:1954_Problemesiconographiemesopotamienne}, sorttitle = {Problemes d’iconographie mesopotamienne 2}, timestamp={2014-04-11}, } @Article{amiet1956lesymbolis, author = {Amiet, Pierre}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004astralmyth} [Astral Mythology]}, journal = {Revue d’assyriologie et d’archéologie orientale}, title = {Le symbolisme cosmique du répertoire animalier en Mésopotamie}, year = {1956}, volume = {50}, number = {3}, pages = {113--126}, issn = {03736032}, url = {http://www.jstor.org/stable/23295231}, urldate = {2014-04-11}, bibmas = {1}, copyright = {Copyright © 1956 Presses Universitaires de France}, file = {amiet1956lesymbolis.pdf:amiet1956lesymbolis/amiet1956lesymbolis.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, jstor_formatteddate = {1956}, keywords = {CBS 16287}, language = {french}, location = {Paris}, publisher = {Presses Universitaires de France}, shortjournal = {RA}, sortkey = {Amiet.P:1956_Symbolismecosmique}, sorttitle = {symbolisme cosmique du repertoire animalier en Mesopotamie, Le}, timestamp={2014-04-11}, } @Review{amiet1998reviewgasc, author = {Amiet, Pierre}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004astronomic} [The UR III Eclipses]}, journal = {Revue d’assyriologie et d’archéologie orientale}, reviewof = {Dating the Fall of Babylon.

In the first two chapters, the primary focus is the relationship between Ninurta and kingship. The first chapter gives a diachronic overview of the cult of Ninurta during all historical periods of ancient Mesopotamia. This chapter shows that the conception of Ninurta’s identity with the king was present in Mesopotamian religion already in the third millennium BC. Ninurta was the god of Nippur, the religious centre of Sumerian cities, and his most important attribute was his sonship to Enlil. While the mortal gods were frequently called the sons of Enlil, the status of the king converged with that of Ninurta at his coronation, through the determination of the royal fate, carried out by the divine council of gods in Nippur. The fate of Ninurta parallels the fate of the king after the investiture. Religious syncretism is studied in the second chapter. The configuration of Nippur cults left a legacy for the religious life of Babylonia and Assyria. The Nippur trinity of the father Enlil, the mother Ninlil, and the son Ninurta had direct descendants in the Babylonian and Assyrian pantheon, realized in Babylonia as Marduk, Zarpanitu, and Nabu, and as Assur, Mullissu, and Ninurta in Assyria. While the names changed, the configuration of the cult survived, even when, from the eighth century BC onwards, Ninurta’s name was to a large extent replaced by that of Nabu. In the third chapter various manifestations or hypostases of Ninurta are discussed. Besides the monster slayer, Ninurta was envisaged as farmer, star and arrow, healer, and tree. All these manifestations confirm the strong ties between the cult of Ninurta and kingship. By slaying Asakku, Ninurta eliminated evil from the world, and accordingly he was considered the god of healing. The healing, helping, and saving of a believer who was in misery was thus a natural result of Ninurta’s victorious battles. The theologoumenon of Ninurta’s mission and return was used as the mythological basis for quite a few royal rituals, and this fact explains the extreme longevity of the Sumerian literary compositions Angim and Lugale, from the third until the first millennium BC. Ninurta also protected legitimate ownership of land and granted protection for refugees in a special temple of the land. The “faithful farmer” is an epithet for both Ninurta and the king. Kingship myths similar to the battles of Ninurta are attested in an area far extending the bounds of the ancient Near East. The conflict myth on which the Ninurta mythology was based is probably of prehistoric origin, and various forms of the kingship myths continued to carry the ideas of usurpation, conflict, and dominion until late Antiquity.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_prnt = {yes! pp 133-139}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s collection}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, shortseries = {SAAS}, sortkey = {Annus.A:2002_GodNinurtain}, sorttitle = {God Ninurta in the Mythology and Royal Ideology of Ancient Mesopotamia, The}, timestamp = {2013-11-23}, } @Collection{annus2010divination, editor = {Amar Annus}, title = {Divination and Interpretation of Signs in the Ancient World}, year = {2010}, series = {Oriental Institute Seminars}, number = {6}, publisher = {Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago}, location = {Chicago}, isbn = {1-885923-68-6 ; 978-1-885923-68-4}, pagetotal = {viii+352}, url = {https://oi.uchicago.edu/pdf/ois6.pdf}, urldate = {2013-11-20}, bibmas = {1}, file = {annus2010divination.pdf:annus2010divination/annus2010divination.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, undefined, temp}, issn = {1559-2944}, sortkey = {Annus.A:2010_Divinationandinterpretation}, timestamp = {2013-11-20}, } @SuppPeriodical{anonymous1875reviewtalb, title = {Notice of a very Ancient Comet, from a Chaldean Tablet (1876), Talbot [Review]}, year = {1875}, date = {1875-09-18}, titleaddon = {Meetings of Societies: Society of Biblical Archaology (Tuesday, December 7)}, journalsubtitle = {A Weekly Review of Literature, Science and Art}, language = {english}, volume = {8}, month = dec, pages = {633}, issn = {0269-333X}, url = {http://search.proquest.com/pao/docview/1299109825}, urldate = {2015-02-06}, _month = {12}, _reviewof = {\cite{talbot1876noticeofav}}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004cometsmete} [Comets]}, file = {anonymous1875reviewtalb.pdf:anonymous1875reviewtalb/anonymous1875reviewtalb.pdf:PDF}, journal = {The Academy}, location = {London}, publisher = {Academy Publishing Co., etc.}, related = {talbot1876noticeofav}, relatedtype = {reviewof}, sortkey = {zz?anon.:1875_NoticeveryAncient}, sorttitle = {Notice of a very ancient comet (Review)}, timestamp={2015-02-06}, } @Article{anonymous1876thenineveh, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004astronomic} [The Nineveh Eclipse]}, journal = {Nature}, title = {The Nineveh Solar Eclipse of B.C. 763}, year = {1876}, volume = {15}, date = {1876-11-16}, pages = {65}, issn = {1476-4687}, url = {http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v15/n368/index.html}, doi = {10.1038/015065a0}, abstract = {THE NINEVEH SOLAR ECLIPSE OF B.C. 763.—In the Rev.

That accurate observations of the stars were made by the Egyptians at a very remote period of their history, has been conclusively proved by Sir Norman Lockyer, from a study of the orientation of the principal Egyptian temples; but in its dawn astronomy was of an essentially religious and magical character. The desire to obtain a knowledge of the future from the aspect of the heavens, was doubtless one of the principal motives which actuated the Egyptians, the Chinese, and, in particular, the Babylonians in their earlier observations of the stars; and it was only after many centuries that the practice of astrology gave place to more scientific aims and methods. That the Babylonians took astronomical observations from an early period is attested by general tradition, which in some cases, however, exhibits curious exaggeration. Pliny, for instance, refers to certain calculations in accordance with one of which the Babylonians possessed recorded observations extending over a period of 490,000 years, while according to another their calculations reached back to some 720,000 years. Yet, in spite of such absurdities, there was doubtless a substratum of truth in the tradition, and it is probable that the Babylonians, like the ancient Egyptians, from a very remote period were watching the stars and laying the foundations of astronomy. During the Assyrian empire we know that important astronomical schools existed at Ashur, Nineveh and Arbela in the eighth and seventh centuries B.C., and a number of reports made by the royal astrologers have come down to us. From these reports, and from the lists of stars, observations and calendars of the same period that we possess, we may conclude that at this time the science was still in its astrological stage of development.}, bibmas = {1}, date = {1899-04-13}, doi = {10.1038/059553a0}, file = {anonymous1899reviewbro1.pdf:anonymous1899reviewbro1/anonymous1899reviewbro1.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, issn = {1476-4687}, related = {brown1899researche1}, relatedtype = {reviewof}, sortkey = {zz?anon.:1899_ResearchesintoOrigin}, timestamp = {2014-04-29}, urldate = {2014-04-29}, } @Review{anonymous1906reviewbro2, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004fixedstars} [Stars and Constellations]}, journal = {Nature}, title = {Astronomy in the Old Testament (1905), Schiaparelli G / Researches into the origin of the primitive constellations of the Greeks, Phoenicians and Babylonians 2 (1900), Brown Jr. R [Review]}, year = {1906}, volume = {74}, pages = {410--411}, number = {1921}, publisher = {Nature Publishing Group}, _reviewof = {\cite{brown1900researches,brown1900researche2}}, abstract = {WE have in these two books works of very different scientific value.

He is moderate and sensible in his deductions also, and never allows himself to be carried away by that deplorable impulse to wild philological comparison and identification which has been the curse of work of this kind hitherto. He has in his English edition also had the benefit of the collaboration of the sanest and most trustworthy critics of the Old Testament, Dr. Driver and Mr. Cowley to wit, so that the reader may rest assured that in reading the book he is not groping darkly among Cheyneian cryptograms, nor need he fear that he will be haunted by the unquiet spirit of Jerahmeel.

Bishr Farès who discovered the manuscript argued for a relationship between the subject matter of these frontispiece-miniatures and the content of the text of the manuscript which dealt with the effects and treatment of snakebite. The present paper intends to demonstrate the astrological meaning of the theme of the Paris Pseudo-Galen frontispiece-miniatures which gains significance from the juxtaposition of the entwined dragons and the lunar emblem. The motif of the entwined dragons in these miniatures is here explained as a reference to the pseudoplanetary nodes of the moon’s orbit, the Arabic al-Djawzahr, which were regarded as the Head and Tail of a giant Dragon. The astronomical importance of the jawzahr lay in its role in effecting solar and lunar eclipses which were attributed to the occurrence of a conjunction of the sun or moon in or near the lunar nodes. It is unlikely that the artist of the paris Pseudo-Galen miniatures attempted to establish a connection between the eclipse phenomenon and the content of the manuscript. However, the correspondence between the date of the completion of the manuscript and the occurrence of a solar eclipse on January 28, A. D. 1199, would appear to indicate the astrological significance of the eclipse for the completion of the work.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s notes #and# \cite{gent2004astralmyth} [Astral Mythology]}, copyright = {Copyright © 1978 American Oriental Society}, file = {azarpay1978theeclipse.pdf:azarpay1978theeclipse/azarpay1978theeclipse.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, keywords = {VAT 7847, VAT 7851, VAT 7851, CT 16.19 + CT 16.20 + CT 16.21 + CT 16.22 + CT 16.23}, location = {New Haven, CT}, publisher = {American Oriental Society}, shortjournal = {JAOS}, sortkey = {Azarpay.G:1978_EclipseDragonArabic}, sorttitle = {Eclipse Dragon on an Arabic Frontispiece-Miniature, The}, timestamp = {2013-09-10}, } @Review{baa1899reviewbro1, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004fixedstars} [Stars and Constellations]}, journal = {Journal of the British Astronomical Association}, title = {Researches into the origin of the primitive constellations of the Greeks, Phoenicians and Babylonians 1 (1899), Brown Jr. R [Review]}, year = {1899}, volume = {9}, pages = {386--387}, editor = {{British Astronomical Association}}, _month = {08}, _reviewof = {\cite{brown1900researches,brown1899researche1}}, adsnote = {Provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System}, adsurl = {http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1899JBAA....9..385.}, bibmas = {1}, date = {1898/1899}, file = {baa1899reviewbro1.pdf:baa1899reviewbro1/baa1899reviewbro1.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, month = aug, related = {brown1899researche1}, relatedtype = {reviewof}, shorteditor = {BAA}, shortjournal = {JBAA}, sortkey = {BritishAstronomicalA.:1899_ResearchesintoOrigin1}, timestamp = {2014-04-29}, url = {http://articles.adsabs.harvard.edu//full/1899JBAA....9..385./0000386.000.html}, urldate = {2014-04-29}, } @Review{baa1900reviewbro2, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004fixedstars} [Stars and Constellations]}, journal = {Journal of the British Astronomical Association}, title = {Researches into the origin of the primitive constellations of the Greeks, Phoenicians and Babylonians 2 (1900), Brown Jr. R [Review]}, year = {1900}, volume = {10}, pages = {414--415}, editor = {{British Astronomical Association}}, _month = {10}, _reviewof = {\cite{brown1900researches,brown1900researche2}}, adsnote = {Provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System}, adsurl = {http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1900JBAA...10..411.}, bibmas = {1}, date = {1899/1900}, file = {baa1900reviewbro2.pdf:baa1900reviewbro2/baa1900reviewbro2.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, month = oct, related = {brown1900researche2}, relatedtype = {reviewof}, shorteditor = {BAA}, shortjournal = {JBAA}, sortkey = {BritishAstronomicalA.:1900_ResearchesintoOrigin2}, timestamp = {2014-04-29}, url = {http://articles.adsabs.harvard.edu/full/1900JBAA...10..411.}, urldate = {2014-04-29}, } @Book{baehr1955tafelnzurb, author = {Baehr, Ulrich}, title = {Tafeln zur Behandlung chronologischer Probleme, Teil I-III}, year = {1955}, series = {Veröffentlichungen des Astronomischen Rechen-Institutes Heidelberg}, number = {3}, publisher = {Verlag G.

Ursprünglich bestand die Absicht, lediglich diese aus dem Nachlaß von P.V. Neugebauer unvollständig übernommenen Tafeln zum Abschluß zu bringen und zu veröffentlichen. Da jedoch die grundlegenden chronologischen Tafeln von Neugebauer, vor allem die 1912 erschienenen Sterntafeln, seit langem fehlen, wäre den interessierten Kreisen mit dem Erscheinen der “Neuen kurzen Tafeln” nicht gedient gewesen, da für deren Verwendung Sternephemeriden für Altertum und Mittelalter unentbehrlich sind. Aus dieser Erkenntnis heraus erwuchs der Plan, Ephemeriden von im Altertum und Mittelalter häufig beobachteten Sternen in möglichst gedrängter Form mit den neuesten Werten für die Eigenbewegungen herzustellen, und diese Ephemeridensammlung zusammen mit den “Neuen kurzen Tafeln” herauszugeben. Im Zusammenhang mit der Bearbeitung dieser beiden Tafeln war es unerläßlich, eine Anzahl zusätzlicher Tafeln zu entwerfen, die die Verwendung beider Haupttafeln erst ermöglichen. Ferner erschien die übersichtliche Zusammenstellung eines umfassenden Verzeichnisses von Sternnamen wünschenswert, weil in Berichten über Sternbeobachtungen die alten arabischen Sternnamen auftreten und das Namensverzeichnis zur schnellen Orientierung dienen kann.

Beaulieu opens the volume with a paper on “L’organisation de la recherche scientifique au IV siècle av. J.-C.”. Taking as its background the famous opposition in Diodorus between the Chaldaeans, who can dedicate their lives to philosophy, being free from public duties, and who pass this on to their children, and the Greeks who, having to earn a living, move (in an amateurish way) from one subject to another, Beaulieu first locates the place of the astronomer/astrologer (tupsar Enuma Anu Enlil) in fourth-century Mesopotamia. A tablet from Yale shows that the Esagil employed fourteen astronomers already in the IV century BC;2 in the same period, more than fifty lamentation priests, and at least sixty-six exorcists, worked under the protection of the temple. Such was the situation when Alexander arrived in Babylon; and in Babylon this tradition continued. From here, Beaulieu moves to Alexandria and the Mouseion: as he shows, if peripatetic influence played a key role in the founding of the library, its organization is in many ways closer to Mesopotamian and Near Eastern practices than to that of the libraries of Greek city-states.

The calendar is studied here both “from within”—analyzing its textual manifestations —and “from without”—via a comparison with ancient Mesopotamian astronomy. This analysis reveals that the calendrical realm constituted a significant case of inter-cultural borrowing, pertinent to similar such cases in ancient literature.

The survey commences with the influential articles by VanderKam in the late 1970s, while relating also to Jaubert’s earlier hypothesis. After a presentation and classification of the relevant texts, we proceed to elucidate the prominent calendrical and historical themes: the calendar in Jubilees and the Temple Scroll; the early history of the 364-day year in Judah; the non-Jewish origins of the 364-day calendar tradition; intercalation and the beginning of the day; and the various accounts of lunar phases in writings from Qumran. Broadly speaking, present-day research tends to emphasize the schematic aspect of the 364-day calendar tradition, renouncing the older view of this system as a “solar” calendar. In addition, Jaubert’s hypothesis on the antiquity of the 364-day calendar, although still upheld in significant parts of current scholarship, is seriously challenged when viewed in a broader historical context.

The papers in this volume address the question of how ancient and medieval societies lived with the uncertainties of a lunar calendar. How did lack of foreknowledge of the beginning of the month impact upon administration, the planning of festivals, and historical record keeping? Did societies replace the observation of the new moon crescent with schematic calendars or calendars based upon astronomical calculations and what were the ideological and practical consequences of such a change?

Since the 1990’s, Early Modern and Medieval Science in Jewish sources has been actively studied, but the consensus was that no real scientific themes could be found in earlier Judaism. This work points them out in detail, and posits a new field of research: the scientific activity evident in the Dead Sea Scrolls and Early Jewish Pseudepigrapha. The publication of new texts and new analyses of older ones reveals crucial elements that are best illuminated by the history of science, and may have interesting consequences for it. The contributors evaluate these texts in relation to astronomy, astrology and physiognomy, marking the first comprehensive attempt to account for scientific themes in Second Temple Judaism. They investigate the meaning and purpose of scientific explorations in an apocalyptic setting. An appreciation of these topics paves the way to a renewed understanding of the scientific fragments scattered throughout rabbinic literature. The book first places the Jewish material in the ancient context of the Near Eastern and Hellenistic worlds. While the Jewish texts were not on the cutting edge of scientific discovery, they find a meaningful place in the history of science, between Babylonia and Egypt, in the time period between Hipparchus and Ptolemy. The book uses recent advances in method to examine the contacts and networks of Jewish scholars in their ancient setting. Second, the essays here tackle the problematic concept of a national scientific tradition. Although science is nowadays often conceived as universal, the historiography of ancient Jewish sciences demonstrates the importance of seeing the development of science in a local context. The book explores the tension between the hegemony of central scientific traditions and local scientific enterprises, showing the relevance of ancient data to contemporary postcolonial historiography of science. Finally, philosophical questions of the demarcation of science are addressed in a way that can advance the discussion of related ancient materials.

These documents attest to a year of 364 days, which was adopted from earlier Jewish Pseudepigrapha like the Books of Enoch and Jubilees. The 364-day year was the main time frame used by the sectarian community represented in the scrolls. It is not a solar year, as often stated, but rather a schematic-sabbatical year. Its main characteristic in the DSS is the absorption of many various calendrical frameworks. The 364-day calendar tradition is strongly based on the calculation of full creational weeks and of weeks of years (Shemitah). It incorporates the service cycles of the 24 priestly families in the temple, while in addition, it encompasses an additional cycle of lunar phenomena.

A new translation is supplied for vv. 13‐25, alongside detailed textual and exegetical notes, based on the collation of eleven Ge’ez manuscripts of group I, five of which are not previously studied. Much of the discussion proceeds from form-critical marks within chapters 64-9, as well as within chapter 69 itself. The need for small-scale analysis arises from the fact that in the Third Parable many themes are inextricably woven together. The demarcation of Enochic and Noachic passages in the Book of Parables is discussed anew. A central theme of the Third Parable, the instruction of angelic knowledge, appears both in the Noachic passages (chapters 65-8) and in the Enochic chapter 69 and is discussed here in particular. The unit 69:2-14 (except for 2b which is a late duplication of the list of angels from 6:7-8) comprises six angels with extraordinary names, mostly unknown elsewhere, with Kesab’el, the prince of the Divine Name concluding the list. A second tradition in vv. 15-25, focusing on the angel Michael, discusses the role of the Divine Oath in the creation and sustenance of the world. Parts of v. 14 are a late attempt to bridge the gap between the two traditions. Several notorious cruxes in vv. 2-25 are explained on the basis of Ethiopic scribal practices, leaving little place for speculation about their meaning. Finally, several later Jewish sources from the Cairo Genizah reflect knowledge of the chapter in its final form, with the two angelic traditions joined together.}, alturl = {\url{https://www.academia.edu/11534024/The_Oath_and_the_Name_in_1_Enoch_69}}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\url{https://haifa.academia.edu/JonathanBenDov}}, file = {ben2015theoathand.pdf:ben2015theoathand/ben2015theoathand.pdf:PDF}, keywords = {Enoch}, location = {Oxford}, publisher = {Oxford University Press}, shortjournal = {JSS}, sortkey = {Ben-Dov.J:2015_OathandName}, sorttitle = {Oath and the Name in 1 Enoch 69}, timestamp = {2015-05-22}, } @Collection{benoit1992histoirede, editor = {Benoit, Paul and Chemla, Karine and Ritter, Jim}, title = {Histoire de fractions, fractions d’histoire}, year = {1992}, series = {Science Networks}, number = {10}, publisher = {Springer Science}, location = {New York and Berlin and Heidelberg}, bibmas = {1}, contents = {\url{http://d-nb.info/920221866/04}}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, undefined, temp}, sortkey = {Benoit.P:1992_Histoiredefractions}, timestamp = {2016-12-01}, } @Inproceedings{berger1970dasneujahr, author = {Berger, Paul-Richard}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004calendarsa} [Festivals \& Cult]}, booktitle = {Actes de la XVIIe Rencontre Assyriologique Internationale, Universit Libre de Bruxelles, 30 juin-4 juillet 1969}, editor = {Finet, André}, title = {Das Neujahrsfest nach den Königsinschriften des ausgehenden babylonischen Reiches}, year = {1970}, eventtitle = {XVIIe Rencontre Assyriologique Internationale: Les Fêtes}, publisher = {Comité Belge de Recherches en Mesopotamie}, pages = {155--159}, location = {Ham-sur-Heure}, number = {1}, series = {Publications du Comité Belge de Recherches Historiques, Epigraphiques et Archeologiques en Mesopotamie}, bibmas = {1}, cross_ref = {finet1970rai17}, eventdate = {1969-06-30/1969-07-04}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45}, shortbooktitle = {RAI 17 Proceedings}, sortkey = {Berger.P:1970_Neujahrsfestnach}, sorttitle = {Neujahrsfest nach den Koenigsinschriften des ausgehenden babylonischen Reiches, Das}, timestamp ={2013-12-04}, venue = {Universit Libre de Bruxelles}, } @InReference{berger1992kuglerfran, author = {Berger, Paul-Richard}, title = {Kugler, Franz Xaver (1862--1929)}, booktitle = {Biographisch-Bibliographisches Kirchenlexikon IV}, year = {1992}, editor = {Traugott Bautz}, editora = {Friedrich Wilhelm Bautz}, subtitle = {Nachschlagewerk mit aktuellen Nachträgen}, booksubtitle = {Kleist-Leyden}, publisher = {Verlag Traugott Bautz}, location = {Herzberg}, isbn = {3-88309-038-7}, pages = {780--782}, url = {https://www.bbkl.de/public/index.php/frontend/lexicon?letter=K&child=Ku&article=Kugler_f_x.art}, urldate = {2017-11-21}, abstract = {KUGLER, Franz Xaver, Chemiker, Mathematiker, Astronom, Assyriologe und katholischer Theologe, * am 27. 11. 1862 zu Königsbach in der bayerischen Pfalz, + am 25.1. 1929. – K. studierte Naturwissenschaften in Heidelberg und München. 1885 promovierte er im Fach Chemie. 1886 trat er in das Noviziat der deutschen Ordensprovinz der Societas Jesu in den Niederlanden. Fortan studierte er in Exaten (Niederlande) Philosophie und in Ditton Hall (England) Theologie. 1893 wurde er zum Priester geweiht und wirkte ab 1897 als Professor der Höheren Mathematik an der Studienanstalt des Ordens in Valkenburg (Niederlande). Am 25. 1. 1929 verstarb er im Pflegeheim der Barmherzigen Brüder im Schloß Steinhof zu Luzern. – Größere öffentliche Bedeutung über sein Wirken im Rahmen des Ordens hinaus erlangte K. in dem sogenannten “Babel-Bibel”-Streit und der Auseinandersetzung mit dem “Panbabylonismus”. Durch die historisch falsche, dogmatische Verabsolutierung der Bibel auch zum vorgeblich naturwissenschaftlichen und geschichtlichen Lehrwerk erhielten die Textfunde in der Mitte des 19. Jh.’s aus Babylonien nach ihrer eindeutigeren Entzifferung eine an die religösen Grundfesten rührende Explosivkraft. Die Bibel erschien Assyriologen (Hugo Winckler, Friedrich Delitzsch), gemessen an den heidnischen und profanen babylonischen sowie assyrischen Quellen mit ihren originären Parallelen zur biblischen Darstellung, als ein unredliches religiöses Machwerk. Darüber entspann sich eine erbitterte Auseinandersetzung zwischen der theologischen Orthodoxie und ihren assyriologischen Opponenten, in der schließlich der assyriologisch interessierte und promovierte Kaiser Wilhelm II. zum Schiedsrichter angerufen wurde. Im Zusammenhang dieser Auseinandersetzung ergriff K. dank seiner wissenschaftlichen Voraussetzungen als wortgewandter Naturwissenschaftler und Mathematiker das Wort. Vor allem konnte er die angebliche Astralmythologie, die schon als Inhalt der babylonischen Texte vor deren Entzifferung erfunden (William Henry Fox Talbot) war und dann vermeintlich auch in den biblischen Texten auftauchte, durch seine Beschäftigung mit den astronomischen Texten der Babylonier und Assyrer in die Schranken weisen und zur Beendigung des “Panbabylonismus” beitragen, wie man den exzessiven Spekulations-Ansatz, demzufolge selbst Goethe von der babylonisch-assyrischen Dichtung abhängig erschien, bald nannte. Die letzten Auswirkungen des Panbabylonismus reichen bis in die Gegenwart, wie die Interpretationen des Hohenliedes als Ableger von “babylonischen Tammuz-Liturgien” trotz des anhand altorientalischer Parallelen nachweislich ursprünglich nicht-liturgischen Charakters dieses Bibelbuches über profane Liebe bezeugen. – K. setzte die unterbrochene Arbeit J. Eppings und J. N. Straßmaiers an der babylonischen Astronomie fort, die zunächst mit der Identifizierung der genannten Gestirne und ihrer Beobachtung befaßt war. Besonderes Aufsehen erregte er mit einem Synchronismus, den er in den astronomischen Angaben (K 160, III Rawlinson 63, Z. 8) ermittelte und der eine Datierung Abrahams zu erlauben schien. Die Arbeiten an der babylonischen Chronologie, die mit der biblischen konkurrierte, führten K. auch zur Beschäftigung mit anderen biblischen Texten und Problemen. Insgesamt waren die Ergebnisse nur Durchgangsstationen der wissenschaftlichen Forschung (assyriologische Texte für Nicht-Fachspezialisten erst ab etwa 1950 weniger risikoreich übersetzt) und sind inzwischen weit überholt. Heute wirkt vor allem der Streit um die Astralmythologie müßig, da er weitgehend eine unsachgemäße Voraussetzung hatte, die bereits für die babylonisch-assyrischen Texte ein modernes Wissenschafts-Verständnis postulierte, das zweifelsfrei unhistorisch, anachronistisch ist. Gleichwohl sind die in den Quellen vermittelten astronomischen Daten bedeutungsvoll. Noch 1985 wurde in keilschriftlichen Texten die zweimalige Erwähnung des Halleyschen Kometen (164 und 87 v. Chr. ) neu entdeckt. K. selbst hat im Nachhinein die von ihm stark betriebene persönliche Polemik, die heute vor allem die Domäne der Politiker geblieben ist, bedauert.

Any reconstruction of the Babylonian calculation schemes must explain how the fundamental periods or period relations can be determined empirically by such astronomical observations as were compiled in the Babylonian Diaries.This paper is concerned with the Babylonian moon ephemerides.

The excess length of the Saros over a whole number of days varies due to solar and lunar anomaly between about 6 and 9 h. We here investigate two functions which model the length of the Saros found in Babylonian sources: a simple zigzag function with an 18-year period presented on the tablet BM 45861 and a function which varies with the month of the year constructed from rules found on the important procedure text TU 11.

Unfortunately, being an overview, it has too few footnotes with references. This is made up for by an excellent bibliography. The article starts out with a short overview of Babylonian arithmetic. Babylonian astronomy is introduced using ancient texts. The author concludes that Babylonian astronomy is numerical and phenomenological; observations were carefully kept over centuries and astronomers searched for repetition and regularities of special astronomical events. These events were described numerically, there is no sign of a geometrical model of the heavens, and repeating phenomena were described by numerical functions. No distinction was made between astronomy and astrology. The article ends with a short overview of Babylonian mathematics in relation to astronomy and it addresses the issues connected with translating mathematical cuneiform texts. [Ad Meskens, MR3157440] This article is the printed version of a talk which the author gave at a conference “Mathematik jenseits des Abendlandes”. She could only give an overview of Babylonian astronomy and mathematics; it may be interesting to note which points she considered worth mentioning. She begins with the development of cuneiform writing and of the sexagesimal number system, to present a Babylonian table of Jupiter phenomena. Besides explaining its construction, she emphasises the differences between this and later European astronomy. After discussing a lunar table, she briefly points out the controversial meanings of “science” in modern historical research. It makes no sense to separate astrology and astronomy in ancient times, as we do it today. A short description of Babylonian mathematics, and especially of the different ways to analyse it in modern scholarship, concludes the article.

This transmission, compounded with countless discoveries, would not have been possible without the surprising decipherment of the cuneiform writing system.

Until now, the astronomical tables covering large historic and prehistoric periods give the geocentric positions of the planets for equidistant dates. As an example, the tables of B. Tuckerman give the positions of the Sun and planets at 5-(Mercury, Venus) or 10-day (Sun, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn) intervals over the -600 to +1649. Coordinates are the longitude of the Sun, the geocentric longitudes and the geocentric latitudes of the planets. Such tables, over the entire period from -4000 to +2600 would include over 3,700,000 numbers and would constitute a 3,000 page book. Instead, compact tables and simple computations of the Sun and planets on a small computer are described in this book. Time-dependent expansions of the longitude and radius vector of the Sun as well as the heliocentric coordinates of the planets are provided. These coordinates refer to the mean equinox and ecliptic of date. For the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars each coordinate is represented in Planetary Programs and Tables From -4000 to +2800 by only by one formula provided for the entire period -4000 to +2600. This formula includes between 5 and 60 terms depending on the coordinate and planet. For Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune the coordinates are expressed for time-spans of five years by power series with seven coefficients. The period -4000, +2600 is then constituted by 1320 time-spans of five years. In addition to the tables, formulae for corrections of aberration and nutation which allow you to compute apparent geocentric coordinates are provided.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{jong2013astronomic}}, oclc = {468474148}, sortkey = {Bretagnon.P:1986_PlanetaryPrograms}, timestamp = {2015-06-19}, } @InProceedings{breucker2003berossosan, author = {de Breucker, Geert}, title = {Berossos and the Mesopotamian Temples as Centre of Knowledge during the Hellenistic Period}, booktitle = {Learned Antiquity}, year = {2003}, editor = {MacDonald, Alaisdair A. and Twomey, Michael W. and Reinink, Gerrit J.}, booksubtitle = {Scholarship and Society in the Near East, the Greco-Roman World, and the Early Medieval West}, eventtitle = {Knowledge, Learning, and Cultural Change}, eventdate = {2001-11}, venue = {Groningen}, series = {Groningen Studies in Cultural Change}, number = {5}, publisher = {Peeters}, location = {Leuven}, isbn = {90-429-1300-2 ; 978-90-429-1300-4}, pages = {13--23}, url = {https://books.google.de/books?id=5UL8_CdkX_8C&printsec=frontcover&hl=de&source=gbs_ViewAPI&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q&f=false}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{slotsky2009talliesand}}, cross_ref = {macdonald2003learnedant}, sortkey = {Breucker.G:2003_BerossosandMesopotamian}, sortname = {Breucker, Geert}, timestamp = {2015-05-20}, } @Proceedings{briant2006latransiti, title = {La transition entre l’empire achéménide et les royaumes hellénistiques (vers 350-300 av.

Roughly a century later an alternative theory known as System B was developed, possibly in Uruk, which addressed the same issues with different mathematical schemes, introduced a few improved parameters, and accomplished at least one substantive improvement in the treatment of solar anomaly.

Part I (Britton 2007) addressed the development of the empirical elements needed to separate the effects of lunar and solar anomaly on the intervals between syzygies. This was accomplished in the construction of the System A lunar theory by an unknown author, almost certainly in the city of Babylon and probably early in the 4th century B.C. The present paper focuses mainly on System A and the likely process of its construction. The first three sections are largely descriptive - first of the basic concepts which underlie the theory; then of the component schemes comprising the theory; and finally of two distinctive texts which suggest how the theory was constructed. The crux of the paper is Sect. 4, which describes how the theory seems likely to have been constructed. Here the crucial insight in separating the effects of lunar and solar anomaly appears to have been recognizing that – of all the measurable intervals bounded by eclipses – only 235 months exhibits a variation due solely to lunar anomaly, and that by means of an elegant mathematical model the amplitudes of 223 and 12 months could be deduced from its amplitude. The rest of the section describes the likely details of the derivation of the Φ ~ Λ scheme, and the extension of the methodology to the other components of the theory. It concludes with a demonstration that Φ and its dependent schemes were anchored through the Φ ~ W scheme to the syzygy on -403 Aug 18 (GN 7391) which concluded the shortest 6-month interval in the first 24 saros cycles since -746 (and in fact in the 900 years separating Nabonassar and Ptolemy). The next three sections address a number of largely technical details and amplifications of the theory, beginning with the schemes describing the variation of lunar velocity (column F) in Sect. 5. Section 6 addresses issues concerning the interpretation of Φ and the so-call Saros Text (BM 36705), while Sect. 7 discusses System B’s corresponding treatment of the effects of lunar anomaly, illustrating both its derivative nature and mathematically less rigorous structure. Section 8 examines the accuracy of the two theories, showing that the System A theory was both remarkably accurate and superior to System B.

Part II (Britton, AHES 63: 357-431, 2009) examines the accomplishment of this separation by the construction of a successful theory depicting the variations due to lunar anomaly in System A and its subsequent adaptation in System B. The present paper examines the introduction of the uniform zodiac, necessary for any theory depicting variations depending on the position of syzygy. It addresses three questions: (1) In light of all available evidence, what is the magnitude of the constant term in the expression Δλ* = C – 1.3828°Y, describing the difference between the Babylonian sidereal longitudes and modern tropical longitudes? (2) What considerations governed the placement of the Babylonian sidereal zodiac relative to the fixed stars? (3) When was the uniform zodiac introduced? To the first question it finds C = 3.20 ° ± 0.1°, scarcely different from Huber’s (Centaurus 5: 192-208,1958) estimate of 3.08°, essentially confirming Huber’s result obtained from much less data. For the second it shows that accommodating the three asterisms comprising Taurus limited the placement of the zodiac to within 3°, while the prominence of half sign multiples among the measured intervals between prominent Normal Stars led irresistibly to the choice adopted. Finally, it finds that the zodiac was introduced between -408 and -397 and probably within a very few years of -400.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp}}, copyright = {Copyright © 2010 Springer}, file = {britton2010studiesin3.pdf:britton2010studiesin3/britton2010studiesin3.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, keywords = {BM 33552, BM 33801 = ACT 811, BM 36321, BM 36599, BM 36609, BM 36651, BM 36722 = Atyp K, BM 36737 + BM 36850 + BM 47912, BM 36822, BM 36833, BM 36910, BM 37053, BM 37266 = Atyp F, BM 41004 = Atyp E, BM 45674 = H5-56, BM 46083, BM 53282 , MNB 1856 = Atyp H, ACT 816}, location = {New York and Berlin and Heidelberg}, publisher = {Springer Science}, shortjournal = {AHES}, sortkey = {Britton.J:2010_StudiesinBabylonian3}, stopper = {2014-11-07 keywords}, timestamp = {2014-01-30}, walker_note = {[CHECK does it have publications of individual BM texts?]}, } @InReference{brock1909josephepp, author = {Brock, Henry M.}, title = {Joseph Epping}, booktitle = {The Catholic Encyclopedia}, year = {1909}, editor = {Herbermann, Charles G. and Pace, Edward A. and Pallen, Conde B. and Shahan, Thomas J. and Wynne, John J.}, subtitle = {An International Work of Reference on the Constitution, Doctrine, Discipline and History of the Catholic Church}, booksubtitle = {Diocese – Fathers}, volume = {5}, volumes = {15}, publisher = {Robert Appleton Company}, location = {New York}, pages = {510}, url = {http://archive.org/stream/07470918.5.emory.edu/07470918_5#page/n575/mode/2up}, urldate = {2013-10-23}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s collection}, file = {brock1909josephepp.pdf:brock1909josephepp/brock1909josephepp.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles}, sortkey = {Brock.H:1909_Epping}, sorttitle = {Epping, Joseph}, timestamp = {2013-10-23}, } @Article{bronshten1990howdoesthe, author = {Bronshten, Vitalii A.}, title = {How Does the Moon Move?}, journal = {Moscow Izdatel Nauka}, year = {1990}, abstract = {This work reviews the history of the development of the theory of lunar motion over a period of almost three-thousand years, extending from ancient Babylonia to the present time.

Son édition révèle plus clairement que précédemment l’ampleur du rituel, les paraphernalia et les chants qu’on y utilisait, les rôles joués par le personnel du temple et le roi, et la récitation qu’on y faisait de certains textes, en particulier utukkū lemnūti. Tous ces aspects sont commentés.

Excavations have shown this statement to be true. This book argues that the earliest attempts at the accurate prediction of celestial phenomena are indeed to be found in clay tablets dating to the 8th and 7th centuries BC from both Babylon and from Nineveh. The author carefully situates this astronomy within its cultural context, treating all available material from the relevant period, and also analysing the earlier astrological material and the later well-known ephemerides and related texts. A wholly new approach to cuneiform astral concerns emerges – one in which both celestial divination and the later astronomy are shown to be embedded in a prevailing philosophy dealing with the ideal nature of the early universe, and in which the dynamics of the celestial divination industry that surrounded the last Assyrian monarchs account for no less than the first recorded “scientific revolution”. This work closely adheres to the original textual sources, and argues for the evolution on the basis of the needs of the ancient scholars and the internal logic of the divinatory and predictive systems employed.

Only after some years of immersion in the intricacies of cuneiform language, and of wading through the difficulties of the mathematical methods employed, can some understanding of the Mesopotamian astral material be gained. And if these documents are to be appreciated not only in their own terms, but in terms of their rôle and importance when first written, prolonged exposure to what is known of ancient Mesopotamian culture is all-important. None of this is remarkable for so esoteric a discipline as Assyriology. It is, however, still noteworthy so far as Mesopotamian astronomy, in particular, is concerned, and goes to the heart of the problem lying behind Astral Sciences. Descriptions of cuneiform astronomy and astrology made by scholars who know little of the discipline because they have been unprepared even to go to the effort of reading the better secondary sources, let alone the primary ones, appear in every third rate “history of science” book. There are in effect two Mesopotamian astral sciences - the one that exists in the opening chapters of these general histories, and which relies on regurgitated interpretations of the excellent, but now dated, Science Awakening 2: The Birth of Astronomy (1974) by B.L. van der Waerden, or even O.

There has been little attempt to trace the causes for its popularity or even to examine its nature. Most histories of the subject from Thorndike (1923-1958) to Tester (1987) assume a fundamental conceptual and technical break between Babylonian and Greek astrology in the last centuries BCE. They say that western astrology also effectively came to an end in the late seventeenth century, when it lost its intellectual respectability, allowing for little connection between then and the present day. The Encyclopaedia of Religion (Culianu, 1987: 472) stated categorically that “astrology, a product of Hellenistic civilisation, appeared at the end of the third century BCE”, completely denying any Mesopotamian connection. Chambers Encyclopaedia was more circumspect, considering that, “It was in Greece, about the 4th century BC, that astrology underwent a great development and was regarded as regulating all things in the universe, including the fates of men” (1970: 724). However, while it is clear that astrology, like any other belief system, experiences periods of reinvention as it passes between different cultures and periods, it is possible to identify a fundamental continuity from the earliest Babylonian astrology to the present day. Contemporary popular astrology may therefore be seen as a remarkable revival of the practical applications of an ancient non-Western astronomy, that of Mesopotamia of four thousand years ago, one which predates all the other intellectual pillars of western society, from Greek philosophy to Judaism, Christianity and modern scientific method.}, bibmas = {1}, file = {just first 2 pages preview:campion2000babylonian/campion2000babylonian1-2.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45}, sortkey = {Campion.N:2000_BabylonianAstrology}, timestamp = {2013-08-29}, } @InReference{campion2008astrologyi, author = {Campion, Nicholas}, title = {Astrology in Babylonia}, booktitle = {Encyclopaedia of the History of Science, Technology, and Medicine in Non-Western Cultures}, year = {2008}, editor = {Selin, Helaine}, publisher = {Springer Science}, location = {New York, Berlin, and Heidelberg}, isbn = {978-1-4020-4559-2}, pages = {248--262}, doi = {10.1007/978-1-4020-4425-0_8467}, urldate = {2013-08-29}, bibmas = {1}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45}, sortkey = {Campion.N:2008_AstrologyinBabylonia}, timestamp = {2013-08-29}, } @InCollection{cancic2009literarisc, author = {Cancik-Kirschbaum, Eva}, title = {Literarische Weissagungen aus spätbabylonisch-hellenistischer Zeit}, booktitle = {Orakel und Gebete}, year = {2009}, editor = {Markus Witte and Johannes F.

The author is an Italian assyriologist. This short book (107 pages) discusses the Middle-Assyrian miscellaneous texts labeled as “Astrolabe B[erlin]” (KAV 218 = VAT 9416, written by the Babylonian scribe Marduk-blassu-ēreš at Assur during the 11th century BCE). Astrolabe B is composed of a bilingual almanac written in Sumerian and Akkadian, a planisphere, a stellar calendar, and the colophon. See the (English-language) book review by Marianna Ferrara in Indologica Taurinensia, Volume 35, 2009, Pages 377-378. As most persons are not likely to sight this book the book review by Marianna Ferrara is reproduced here (with spelling corrections): “I The book under review focuses on the study of the Middle-Assyrian miscellaneous texts known as Astrolabe B(erlin), which belong to a group of ancient astronomical texts (the so-called “Astrolabes”) dating around the II millennium BCE. These texts in fact do not concern the determination of the altitudes of stars, as the true astrolabes do, but contain several lists of stars that rose ideally each month in the Paths of Ea, Anu, and Enlil. The title of this book, appropriate to its topic, refers to the Sumerian compound MUL.MES.3.TA.AM, literally translated as “three-stars-each(-month)”, by which these astronomical texts are referred to in the Mesopotamian sources, and suggests the three constellations, contained in Astrolabe B, apparently intended to be in order of the Paths of Ea, Anu, and Enlil in each month. Texts in Astrolabe B appear to be divided into three different sections corresponding to three subjects, but until recently only the section first had been well known and edited in English translation. In this book, instead, the author presents a complete translation of the other two parts (second and third sections), which have never been discussed so far. Beginning with a short sketch of the historical background (pp. 3-27), the author succinctly sets forth the basics of Mesopotamian beliefs, mythology, and cult, and illustrates the present state of research on Astrolabe B, making some central considerations. Compiled from older sources, as the subdivision into three sections suggests, these texts have often been ignored by scholars and, in the author’s view, they merit more attention than they have so far received, in order to understand their real function. She notices that these texts can be considered astronomical texts in some sense, but they highlight or obscure a certain different aspect —religious, theologian— of the all-compassing study of stars. An important example of this is found in this article. The author argues that Astrolabe B differs from the other Astrolabes by giving a different correspondence between the constellations and the three Paths of Ea, Anu and Enlil. It is possible that these texts contain some real (viz. not ideal) observational data, recorded at different times and then stripped of their original context, or at least absorbed into the scribal tradition. A second possibility is that the variation is due to an error in copying the tablet on the part of the scribes. Moreover, the third section of Astrolabe B, which is similar to the other Astrolabes in contents and phraseology, presents each constellation differently associated with each month. The meaning of this deviation, according to Casaburi, is to be found in the close connection between the star calendars and the divinatory art, which has far received almost no attention whatsoever. Besides providing us with some astronomical records, Astrolabe B is also a rich source of mythological material, to which the author returns in the appendix. The second and third sections of Astrolabe B are presented in the second half of the book (pp. 29-62 ) with the transliterated text and an Italian translation. Taking account of some other sources, the author examines the texts introducing some useful philological considerations (pp. 63-70). Finally, appendix (pp. 71-83) deserves attention. Here the author examines the nomenclature of months and the events to which they refer, pointing out their relevance for agriculture and myth. The book provides also a complete list of star names, the indexes of the Sumerian and Akkadian terms, the Sumerograms and their Akkadian equivalents, and the names of deities. These philological tools offer a glimpse on the cultural background, to which the author pays close attention, providing a fine survey of the Mesopotamian cultural and agricultural activities. Despite interesting questions, however, the answers are often not so satisfying. This is probably due to the absence of a complete critical edition of the Astrolabe B, which, as the author notices, is required in order to understand the real function of these texts. The present study is a first attempt to rescue from oblivion the records contained in Astrolabe and does promise essentially what the book delivers. The great merit of Casaburi is that it is the first time that an edition of the second and third sections of the Astrolabe B along with its Italian translation has been published.”}, timestamp = {2013-10-23}, } @Book{casaburi2003umetabuti, author = {Casaburi, Maria Cristina}, title = {Ūmē Ṭābūti}, year = {2003}, subtitle = {“I giorni favorevoli”}, language = {italian}, series = {History of the Ancient Near East/Studies}, number = {8}, publisher = {S.A.R.G.O.N Editrice e Libreria}, location = {Padua}, pagetotal = {VII+150+1pic+2pl.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp}}, comment = {\cite{biggs2005reviewcasa,livingstone2006reviewcasa}}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, issn = {1120-4680}, keibi = {62:167}, shortseries = {HANE/S}, sortkey = {Casaburi.M:2003_umetabuti}, sorttitle = {ume tabuti.

In attempting to understand the Scriptures, scholars of the last three hundred years have intensively studied both these sacred texts and other related ancient writings. A cursory examination reveals that their authors depended on other sources, some of which are lost and some of which have recently come to light. Part of these extant sources are the pseudepigrapha. Though the meaning of the word can be disputed by scholars, The Old Testament Pseudepigrapha is a collection of those writings which are, for the most part, Jewish or Christian and are often attributed to ideal figures in Israel’s past. Together, both volumes of The Old Testament Pseudepigrapha present literature that shows the ongoing development of Judaism and the roots from which the Christian religion took its beliefs. Using the very latest techniques in biblical scholarship, this international team of recognized scholars, led by James H. Charlesworth, has put together a monumental work that will enhance the study of Western religious heritage for years to come. Volume 1 of this work contains two sections. The first is Apocalyptic Literature and Related Works. An apocalypse, from the Greek meaning revelation or disclosure, is a certain type of literature which was a special feature of religions in late antiquity. In the past, the definition was derived from the study of only some of the extant apocalypses, especially the Apocalypse, the Book of Revelation. This has changed, and the present edition of the pseudepigrapha includes nineteen documents that are apocalypses or related literature. It will now be easier to perceive the richness of apocalyptic literature and the extent of early Jewish and Christian apocalyptic ideas and apocalyptic religion. These new translations present these important documents, many for the first time in modern English, for all “People of the Book” to study, contemplate, and understand.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp}: “Appendix (other publications by authors cited above, and various marginally relevant items) [NB.

To a large extent it seems that the Greeks kept very closely, even in astronomy, to the mode of research advocated by Plato, who said in “The Republic”, “Which things (i.e. “the variegated bodies in the heavens”) truly are to be comprehended by reason and intellect, but not by sight”. The Greeks founded a “school” of theoretical astronomy and, with their highly developed mathematics, were able to go far with it; but their source-material was in very many cases not Greek. The author of “Epinomis” states, “We may assume that whatever the Greeks take from the barbarians, they bring it to a finer perfection”. Adrastus (second century A.D.) wrote that the methods used by the Chaldeans and Egyptians in astronomy were imperfect because these people lacked physiologia; no doubt this was true, but it was people of these races who had done, and continued to do, most of the equivalent of modern observatory routine work.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker1993bibliograp}}, copyright = {Copyright © 1962 The British Society for the History of Science}, file = {clarke1962greekastro.pdf:clarke1962greekastro/clarke1962greekastro.pdf:PDF;clarke1962greekastro.pdf:clarke1962greekastro/clarke1962greekastro.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, keywords = {/}, location = {Cambridge}, publisher = {Cambridge University Press}, sortkey = {Clarke.L:1962_GreekAstronomyand}, timestamp = {2014-10-10}, } @Article{clarke2002acomputerg, author = {Clarke, A.

Volk 1995, 177-179 and 182-183; B. Alster 1999, 687; J. Cooper 2001, 142-144). Nevertheless, to date there has been no systematic treatment of this assumption and this study seeks to fill this gap. It is my thesis that certain events of the story (i.e. Inana’s movements) can be related to a series of observable celestial phenomena, specifically the synodic activity of the planet Venus. This also explains the heretofore enigmatic climax of the story, in which Inana crosses the entire sky in order to finally locate her attacker, as a celestial miracle required by the planet Venus’ peculiar celestial limitations. Furthermore, since in ancient Iraq the observation of astronomical phenomena was often done for the purpose of celestial divination, I suggest that certain events within the story may be illuminated if situated within that undertaking.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\url{https://bc.academia.edu/JeffCooley}}, file = {cooley2008earlymesop.pdf:cooley2008earlymesop/cooley2008earlymesop.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals}, keywords = {/}, location = {Leiden}, publisher = {Brill}, sortkey = {Cooley.J:2008_EarlyMesopotamianAstral}, timestamp = {2015-06-04}, } @Article{cooley2008inanaandsu, author = {Cooley, Jeffrey Leo}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp} #and# Ossendrijver’s collection #and# \url{https://bc.academia.edu/JeffCooley}}, journal = {KASKAL}, title = {Inana and Šukaletuda}, year = {2008}, subtitle = {A Sumerian Astral Myth}, journalsubtitle = {Rivista di storia, ambiente e culture del Vicino Oriente Antico / A Journal of History, Environment, and Cultures of the Ancient Near East}, volume = {5}, pages = {161--172}, issn = {1971-8608 ; 2036-5845}, url = {http://ezb.uni-regensburg.de/?2544468&bibid=UBHE}, urldate = {2014-01-31}, bibmas = {1}, file = {cooley2008inanaandsu.pdf:cooley2008inanaandsu/cooley2008inanaandsu.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, keywords = {Ni 9721 + Ni 9748 + Ni 9564}, location = {Padova and Florence}, publisher = {Sargon editrice e libreria}, sortkey = {Cooley.J:2008_InanaandSukaletuda}, timestamp={2014-01-31}, } @Article{cooley2008iwantodimt, author = {Cooley, Jeffrey Leo}, title = {“I Want to Dim the Brilliance of Šulpae!”}, journal = {Iraq}, year = {2008}, subtitle = {Mesopotamian Celestial Divination and the Poem of “Erra and Išum”}, journalsubtitle = {The BISI journal}, language = {english}, volume = {70}, pages = {179--188}, issn = {00210889}, url = {http://www.jstor.org/stable/25608665}, urldate = {2014-10-10}, abstract = {Since F. Al-Rawi and J. Black published the second tablet of the first-millennium myth Erra and Išum (Iraq 51: 111-122) it has been generally recognized that the story includes fairly specific references to celestial features known from the Mesopotamian tradition of celestial divination. Moreover, D. Brown (Mesopotamian Planetary Astronomy-Astrology) has made passing reference to his belief that Erra and Išum contains significant astronomically related material. Nevertheless, to date no systematic study of the myth has been undertaken which explores this possibility in any depth. In this paper, I demonstrate that the author of the myth did, in fact, employ significant astronomical technical terminology in his composition, terminology that is also found in the contemporary works of celestial divination (Enūma Anu Enlil, mulAPIN, as well as the astronomical reports and letters to the Neo-Assyrian monarchs). Such terminology includes: bibbu, manzāzu, šarūru maqātu, šarūru našû, ba’ālu, umullu, and adannu etēqu. Moreover, I show that the author’s knowledge of celestial divination goes beyond the mere use of technical terminology. Indeed, the author also exhibits his familiarity with the association of certain celestial features with specific divine characters and mundane phenomena. This includes the constellations mulKA5.A/ šēlebu (’the Fox’), the Sebitti and the planet Mars with the god Erra. He also associates Mars/Erra with destruction and plague, the Sebitti with the well-being of livestock, and Marduk with the stability of the land in general and Babylon in particular. Finally, I show that the author demonstrates a knowledge and acceptance of specific divinatory theoretical concepts including the general principle that the phenomena of the sky portend divine action.}, altsubtitle = {Mesopotamian Celestial Divination and the Myth of Erra and Išum}, alturl = {\url{http://www.bisi.ac.uk/content/iraq-bisi-journal}}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src =

treated the sciences of the ancient Near East as separate from historical and cultural considerations. At the same time, biblical scholars, dominated by theological concerns, have historically understood the Israelite god as separate from the natural world. Cooley’s study, bringing to bear contemporary models of science history on the one hand and biblical studies on the other hand, seeks to bridge a gap created by 20th-century scholarship in our understanding of ancient Near Eastern cultures by investigating the ways in which ancient authors incorporated their cultures’ celestial speculation in narrative. In the literature of ancient Iraq, celestial divination is displayed quite prominently in important works such as Enuma Eliš and Erra and Išum. In ancient Ugarit as well, the sky was observed for devotional reasons, and astral deities play important roles in stories such as the Baal Cycle and Shahar and Shalim. Even though the veneration of astral deities was rejected by biblical authors, in the literature of ancient Israel the Sun, Moon, and stars are often depicted as active, conscious agents. In texts such as Genesis 1, Joshua 10, Judges 5, and Job 38, these celestial characters, these “sons of God,” are living, dynamic members of Yahweh’s royal entourage, willfully performing courtly, martial, and calendrical roles for their sovereign.

Die informatie vinden we, uiteraard, vooral in “officiële” teksten die koningen lieten schrijven, zoals bouw-, wij- en triomfinscripties, annalen en edicten. maar eveneens in brieven van vorsten en bestuurders, in oorkonden die gebeurtenissen rapporteren en zelfs in wetenschappelijke teksten. Belangrijk zijn verder composities die de geschiedenis retrospectief beschrijven en soms interpreteren, zoals kronieken, profetische teksten, autobiografieën, de historische boeken van het Oude Testament en geschriften van klassieke auteurs. Tenslotte kunnen ook poëtische teksten, zoals epen, legenden en hymnen, waarin koningen vaak centraal staan, historisch belangwekkend zijn, al gaan ze uiteraard veel vrijer met de geschiedenis om. Dat laatste geldt overigens in het algemeen voor zeer veel historische documenten uit de oudheid, waarvan het merendeel geen objectief-wetenschappelijk feitenrelaas geeft. De ideologie speelt in “officiële” teksten vaak een rol, waardoor negatieve berichten worden vermeden en tegenstanders vaak in een kwaad daglicht worden gesteld, ter vergroting van de reputatie van de succesvolle eigen vorst. Soms is er echter wel degelijk sprake van objectieve feitelijkheid. In dit boek worden de vertaalde historische documenten in elke bijdrage voorafgegaan door een inleiding en gevolgd door een commentaar, waarbij de nadruk ligt op de betekenis van de tekst(en) en de historische implicaties. Een bijgevoegde literatuuropgave vergemakkelijkt nadere oriëntatie. De meeste teksten gaan vergezeld van een illustratie en dikwijls ook van een aparte kadertekst, waarin algemene historische informatie wordt gegeven over de hoofdpersoon of -personen in het behandelde “historische document”. Enkele geografische kaarten achterin het boek bieden een handzaam overzicht van de verschillende gebieden waaruit de teksten afkomstig zijn. De grote variëteit van de gekozen teksten staat borg voor een boeiende staalkaart van historisch bronnenmateriaal uit het Oude Nabije Oosten.}, bibmas = {1}, sortkey = {Demaree.R:2003_Zijschrevengeschiedenis}, timestamp={2015-01-23}, } @Article{depuydt1995morevaluab, author = {Depuydt, Leo}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp} #and# \cite{gent2004astronomic} [Other Reports and General Discussions]}, journal = {Journal of Cuneiform Studies}, title = {“More Valuable than All Gold”}, year = {1995}, subtitle = {Ptolemy’s Royal Canon and Babylonian Chronology}, volume = {47}, pages = {97--117}, issn = {00220256}, url = {http://www.jstor.org/stable/1359818}, doi = {10.2307/1359818}, urldate = {2014-01-31}, bibmas = {1}, copyright = {Copyright © 1995 The American Schools of Oriental Research}, file = {depuydt1995morevaluab.pdf:depuydt1995morevaluab/depuydt1995morevaluab.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, jstor_formatteddate = {1995}, keywords = {/}, language = {english}, location = {Boston}, publisher = {American Schools of Oriental Research}, shortjournal = {JCS}, sortkey = {Depuydt.L:1995_MoreValuablethan}, sorttitle = {More Valuable than All Gold: Ptolemy’s Royal Canon and Babylonian Chronology}, timestamp={2014-01-31}, } @Article{depuydt1998ancientegy, author = {Leo Depuydt}, title = {Ancient Egyptian Star Clocks and Their Theory}, journal = {Bibliotheca Orientalis}, year = {1998}, date = {1998-01/1998-04}, volume = {55}, number = {1-2}, pages = {6--44}, issn = {0006-1913}, doi = {10.2143/BIOR.55.1.2015844}, urldate = {2013-12-05}, abstract = {This paper’s main purpose is to analyze star clocks.

Ich fand, daß sie im Zusammenhang mit dem Mondkalender, der 12 Lichtmonate zu 354 Tagen rechnet, entdeckt worden sein muß. Zuerst wurde wohl der große, heute wenig erwähnte Zyklus von 60 Mondjahren weniger 4 Lichtmonate gefunden, nicht der »Saros« genannte Zyklus von 18 Mondjahren 7 Lichtmonaten. Bei dieser kleinen Arbeit lenkte die Zahl 60 und das Wort »Saros« meine Aufmerksamkeit auf das Sexagesimalsystem. Syncellus erhielt uns bekanntlich die Nachricht, daß »Saros« und »Sossos« 60x60 und 60 Jahre sind. Später bezeichnet das Wort »Saros« eine Periode, in der sich die Finsternisse wiederholen. Nun kann 60x60 keine Finsternisperiode gewesen sein, wohl aber 60. Das ist aber der »Sossos«. Ob wohl die beiden Worte später vertauscht worden sind? Wenn uns überliefert wäre, daß 60 und 60x60 durch die Worte »shar« und »shu-shu« bezeichnet werden, würde jedermann 60x60 in dem gedoppelten shu-shu erkennen und 60 Jahre für »shar« halten. Ich glaube also, daß in uralten Zeiten die 60jährige Finsternisperiode durch das Wort bezeichnet wurde, aus dem später »shar« = »Saros« entstand. Es würde also das Sexagesimalsystem aus dem alten Mondkalender entstanden sein; die Finsternisvoraussage wäre älter als das Sexagesimalsystem.“ [Jeremias: Ich halte die Beobachtung Dr. Dittrichs für sehr beachtenswert.

The calendar of an old Sumerian city Nippur (now Niffer in Iraq) played a very important role in the cultural history of the Ancient Near East. During the third millenium it was a local calendar; but after Ur III, it became the calendar of almost the whole of Babylonia, and influenced Hebrew, Syriac and Syro-Arabic chronological systems. This work deals with cuneiform sources related to the Nippur calendar and its rituals. The main aim of the book is to analyze all these texts and to make some associations between the Nippur calendar and the solar Zodiac. Introduction. There have been three main tendencies in the study of Sumerian culture. The first one may be named aesthetical comparison. It refers to the discovery of similarities between Sumerian and Old Testamental texts by means of the analysis of its poetic composition (S. N. Kramer, W. W. Hallo, V. K. Afanasieva). The second may be called politics in myth, that is, the application of political history to the plot of sacred texts and the explanation of ancient culture by means of modern socio-economical ideas (Th. Jacobsen, I. M. Diakonoff, C. Wilcke-K.Volk, J. S. Cooper). The third tendency, religious culture, treats ideology as the sphere of religion and cult, and the cultic activity predominates here over the cultural activity (French scholars, H. Sauren, R. Averbeck). However, the existence of these tendencies in the consciousness of Sumerians is doubtful because there are no words such as “politics”, “religion” or “beauty” in ancient cuneiform languages. So, it would be strange to place the Sumerian world picture around one abstract modern term. Sumerian texts reveal a tendency to co-ordinate human life with the world of nature and cosmos. Not only as it is but also in relation with the days of sacrifice was the cult of a god important. Historical inscriptions compared the king with deities whose actions were connected with the seasons and months of the calendar. The form, stylistic elements and formulae of the text contain hidden indication to the calendar ritual, which was the prototype of a literary work. So, it is important to study the ancient calendar as a source of culture, for example, of the Sumerian culture. In the field of Sumerology there are four significant books on Sumerian calendars. B. Landsberger (1915), M. E. Cohen (1993), W. Sallaberger (1993) investigate the facts of calendar, that is, all month names and days of sacrifices found in all kinds of cuneiform texts. S. Langdon (1935) tried to explicate the ritual essence of calendar months. His work was the first attempt to overcome the separation between cultural and calendar studies in Sumerology. Recently, a second attempt was made by A. Livingstone (1986) in his book dedicated to the rituals and explanatory works on them. Our investigation continues the “Langdon-Livingstone line”. We shall try to analyze the substance of all Nippur months and then to reveal chrono-topos (Space-and-Time, by M. M. Bakhtin) of the Nippur calendar. Chapter I. The Nippur Calendar. All cuneiform sources related to the Nippur calendar can be divided into three groups: 1) Nippur pre-Sargonic and Sargonic administrative texts (ECTJ, OSP 1-2, TuM); 2) Middle Babylonian, Neo-Assyrian and Seleucian explanatory works (KAV 218, OECT XI 69+70, SBH VIII, BPO 2 X, “Nippur Compendium” in George, BTT); 3) series of prescriptions like Iqqur-ipush (Labat, Hem. et Men; Labat, Cal.). In group 1) we can find all 12 months’ names in their archaic written versions. Texts of group 2) (like Astrolabe B) contain explanations of each months’ name by means of the month’s ritual and connect it with the definite celestial object heliacally rising in this month. Prescriptions of group 3) relate to the most important events of the month. Additional information can be extracted from Sumerian hymns to a god (so called myths) and royal inscriptions. The Nippur calendar consisted of four seasons: season of An (XII-II), season of Enlil (III-V), season of An II (VI-VIII), season of Enki (IX-XI). It began near the spring equinox and might be connected with the time of the rising of the river. Astronomical foundations of the calendar were lunar and solar observations: each month began with a new moon, but each season depended on the way of the Sun through the stars of the celestial equator. I bara2-za3-gar (March-April) “(re-establishing) the dais in shrine”. Enthronement as a result of the Great Battle between the Young Hero and the Chaos (= the Old Hero). Ninurta and Asag, Marduk and Tiamat, Tarhunas and Illuyanka, St. George and the Dragon. The dais here is a symbol of stable, solid earth in the middle of the Abyss and, therefore, a symbol of the beginning of the New World. II gu4-si-su3/sa2 “turning/direction of the oxen”. The Great Meeting of the Young Hero in the gates of Nippur and his Sacred Marriage, which is connected with ploughing the earth. Here Ninurta became ensigal and engar of his father Enlil. III sig4 gish u3-shub-ba gar “placing the brick to the brick-mould”. The symbolic meaning of this magic procedure is the real co-existence of antipodes. We know that this month was associated in late astronomical texts with the Gemini Lugalgirra and Meslamtaea who were Sin and Nergal (the light of the Moon and the darkness of the Nether World). One can propose some kind of relation between the myth of this month and the plot of ‘Enlil and Ninlil’. IV shu-numun “sowing”. Here the process of sowing is connected with the departure of Dumuzi to the Nether World. Women cry over him to stimulate the growth of seeds. We would suppose that the crying Nin-ru-ru-gu2 of Astrolabe B < Nin-lu2-ru-gu2 “Mistress who opposes a man”, is Ereshkigal. V NE.NE gar “establishing of torches”. The fire of many torches helps mankind to drive away ghosts of the Nether World. People at that time make sacrifices to their dead relatives who had not received food and drink from their children and came out from the Nether World to disbalance relations between the living and the dead. In literature, it is the time of Inanna’s descent to the Nether World and Gilgamesh’s march to kur-lu2-ti-la of Huwawa (in Sumerian, kur means simultaneously “a mountain”, “a foreign country” and “the Nether World”). Athletic game played at this time in memory of Gilgamesh with the light of many torches seems to have been similar to the Greek Olympic Games. VI kin-dInnin “the service for Inanna”. Inanna’s statues are cleaned in “the River of the Sacred Ordeal” because of her coming out from the Nether World at that time. In the literature, we know the myth “Gilgamesh and the Bull of Heaven” where Gilgamesh has refused to enter Inanna’s temple in Uruk. He names her Nin-e2-gal “Mistress of the Big House (= Acc. bit kili »prison«)”. It means that she was a prisoner of the Nether World and, after coming out, she is waiting for a new Dumuzi, that is, for a hero who must descend to the Nether World as a substitute for Inanna. VII du6-ku3 “the Sacred Mound”. Purification of kings and rulers, libations to Enki-Ninki as parent of Enlil. From OS and SB texts (Krebernik, BFE 18-19; Selz, 1995, enki-ninki; van Dijk, 1964) we know that Enki-Ninki had been the first deity before Enlil. He lived in the Earth, in the root of sacred tamarisk, at the very beginning of the world. The month and its rituals symbolize the very ancient time of the Universe, the period of establishing the World Order. Enki-Ninki was the parent of Anunna-gods who were rulers of Justice. The sun-god Utu was the second god of this month. VIII apin-du8-a “release of the Plough”. The ritual is unknown (it should be the holiday of Tummal). Astrolabe B alludes to this ritual when it mentions the “Dialogue between the Plough and the Hoe”. It means the time of finishing all work with the plough (the plough’s activity on the field lasting from the IV till the VIII months). IX gan-gan-e3 “rising of the Killer”. Here GAN.GAN = @agK@u “to kill”, e3 “to rise”. We know from Astrolabe B and the corresponding texts that it is the month of Nergal. In the Erra-Epic Nergal is called bel shagashe “master of murder”, so we can say that the whole month is dedicated to Nergal’s rising from the Nether World, that is, to the darkness of the winter sun. There is an association between Nergal’s rising and the rising of fruits from the Earth. This is the reason why the IX month is “the month of prosperity and abundance”. X ku3-SHEM “the sacred nakedness”. According to J. Bauer’s reading, SHEM = sux, su3PA.SIKIL = /sug/. In the Sumero-Eblaite glossary su3PA.SIKIL = sa-ba-tu “to be naked” (cf. Arabic sbt,, Hebrew shbt, “twig, rod”). It is the time of the Earth’s holiday after agricultural activities. X ab-ba-e3 (from Ur III) “rising of the Elder(s)”. Here the main rituals are: a) a big feast of An related to the eldest deities (Enmesharra, Ninshubur); b) rising of the dead founders of the state (Ur-Nammu, Shulgi) and their seating at the place of assembly. XI ud2-duru5 “emmer”. The ritual is unknown; however, in Astrolabe B it is “the month of cold, the favourite month of Enlil”, in Iq.-ip. 105, 11 “the month of Ishkur, canal inspector of the Heaven and the Earth”. We know about a very obscure holiday of Enlil at that time (“Nippur Compendium”; Ur III text in Sallaberger, 1993), where many weepers participate. Assur state ritual (van Driel, Assur, 140) contains the liturgical reading of a-ab-ba hu-luh-ha at the end of this month. In the latter text, the people of Nippur appeal to Enlil with a request not to flood their city and not to freeze them. One can suggest that rituals of this month may be related to the image of the Flood and the World Crush. XII she-gur10-ku5 “(time of) harvest”. The ritual is unknown, however, we know from Iqqur-ipush that it was the time of destruction of Agade and Ur. “Harvest” may mean “the end” here. Gods of the month are Sibitti, who are friends of Asag, children of Enmesharra. Chapter II. Semantic System of the Nippur Calendar. Steady observations lead us to the conclusion that the Nippur year was divided into two periods. Its first period (I-VI) was devoted to the “Inanna-Dumuzi cycle”, its second period was occupied by the gods of the Nether World and the Abyss. The main plot of the Nippur year is the conflict between the World of Life and the Nether World. Here the spatial meaning of “the World of Life” is “our world” < “our land” (= Sumer), the temporal meaning is “the bright time of the year” (from the winter solstice till the summer solstice). Correspondingly, the spatial meaning of “the Nether World” is “steppe”, “foreign country”, “outside space”, the temporal meaning is “the dark time of the year” (from the summer solstice till the winter solstice). This is the chrono-topos of the Nippur calendar. The situation of conflict is implemented here in four positions: I-III – domination of the World of Life. Giving ME as potencies of being to the Hero after his battle with the Abyss, reconstruction of the world and temple, enthronement and the sacred marriage, division of light and dark. Lugale, Barton Cylinder, an-gim dim2-ma, Cyl.A Gudea, Enki and the World Order, Enlil and Ninlil (?). IV-VI – war with the Nether World: Substitutes (Dumuzi, Inanna, Gilgamesh in the Nether World), ghosts of the Nether World ascend. Descent of Inanna, Gilgamesh and kur-lu2-ti-la, Gilgamesh and the Bull of Heaven, Gilgamesh’s Death. VII-IX – peace with the Nether World. Reconstruction of the margins between the two worlds, judgement of Utu and libations to the old gods. Utu hymns, Plough and Hoe. X-XII – domination of the Nether World and Abyss. Deluge, destruction of cities, saving the World of Life by a righteous person. Deluge myth, Ur Lament, Curse of Agade. One may note that there is a system of interconnections within the Nippur calendar, such as an opposition between the corresponding months of the first and the second periods of the year: I-VII – predestination and judgement; II-VIII – plough cycle (battle and discussion between the opponents); III-IX – twins (Sin and Nergal); IV-X – entering the Nether World and rising there from; V-XI – immortality (through conquering the world during the war or through saving that during the Deluge); VI-XII – the end of period (purification before the new period). Chapter III. Life after death: metamorphoses of the Nippur calendar semantics. The following three similarities are discussed: a) the similarity between the Nippur and the Standard Babylonian calendars; b) that between the Nippur calendar and the Babylonian Zodiac; and c) the between the Nippur calendar and the Epic of Gilgamesh. The first scholar who has suggested these similarities was F. Lenormant (Lenormant, 1874 II, 78-79). Our task here is to verify his conclusion. a) nisan < nesag “the first”, “the first sacrifice” has a semantic resemblance with Sum. bara2-za3-gar, since bara2 was the place of enthronement where the Young Hero defeated an old deity (e.g. Enmesharra, Tiamat) and became the leader of nation. du’_zu may be correlated with the holiday of Dumuzi in shu-numun. e/ululu is similar to the rite of purification in kin-dInnin, and vebTtu and @abKvu show a relation between months X-XI and the Deluge. b) I MUL.LU2.HUNGA was the constellation of Dumuzi who had a ram’s head. Dumuzi, one variant of the young spring god, was sacrificed in summer. Thus, it was also the constellation of Kingu, victim-god. Semantics of the First god who was a victim for the new world is very close to the ritual of I bara2-za3-gar. II MUL.GU4.AN.NA is very close to II gu4-si-sa2. VI ab-sin2 (image of Virgo with ear-corn) is related to the image of VI kin-dInnin (Inanna’s Return from the Nether World). VII zi-ba-ni-tum is similar to VII du6-ku3 (justice). We could propose that many images of the Babylonian Zodiac had had their prototypes in images and functions of the Nippurian ritual. See SpTU II, 43; BRM IV 19-20; Pinches Astrolabe. c) The way of Gilgamesh is the annual solar route from the East (= Persian Gulf = Utnapishtim’s land) to the West (Lebanon and Mediterranean Sea = Humbaba’s mountains). In our book, we show many details indicating very close connections between the Nippur month rituals and plots of some corresponding tablets of the Epic of Gilgames: Tabl. II Battle of Gilgamesh and Enkidu near the entrance to the sacred bedroom < the Sacred marriage of Ninurta after his battle with Asag. Tabl. III Gilgamesh and Enkidu become friends < Sin and Nergal, light and dark, twins. Tabl. VI Gilgamesh refuses to marry Ishtar, his purification < purification of Ishtar’s statues. Tabl. VII Gods judge Enkidu to death, Enkidu judges Shamhat (two fates) < Utu’s Justice, in Zodiac – Libra. Here are the most obvious pieces of evidence in favour of the similarity between the Nippur calendar and the Gilgamesh Epic. The confirmation of F. Lenormant’s hypothesis leads us to the issue of the ritual and calendrical functioning of the Epic. However, we do not have any solution to this problem.”]}, timestamp = {2015-06-12}, } @Article{englund1988administra, author = {Englund, Robert K.}, title = {Administrative Timekeeping in Ancient Mesopotamia}, journal = {Journal of the Economic and Social History of the Orient}, year = {1988}, language = {english}, volume = {31}, number = {2}, pages = {121--185}, issn = {00224995}, doi = {10.2307/3632096}, url = {http://www.jstor.org/stable/3632096}, urldate = {2014-01-31}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp} #and# \cite{gent2004calendarsa} [Calendars]}, copyright = {Copyright © 1988 BRILL}, file = {englund1988administra.pdf:englund1988administra/englund1988administra.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, jstor_formatteddate = {1988}, keywords = {AAS 135 vii 15, AnOr 1.250, ATU 1.621, ATU 1.627, ATU 1.653 = VAT 5307, BIN 5.226 1-4, BM 20054, CT 10.22 = BM 14308, HSS 3.31 obv. vii4 – rev. ii2, ITT 5.6859, MVN 11.106 i1-10, OECT 7.103 = Ash Mus 1926.630, OECT 7.134, OECT 7.136 = Ash Mus 1926.589 ~ IM 55596, OECT 7.2, OECT 7.24, OECT 7.32, OECT 7.4 obv. ii, OECT 7.40, OECT 7.84 = Ash Mus 1926.586 ~ IM 55582, OECT 7.92-93, OECT 7.94, TCL 5.5669 i 1-4, TCL 5.5670 i14-ii2, TCL 5.6036 ii23-27, TCL 5.6057 i8-16, W 14731.u, W 15773.b, W 17729.hb, W 20274.90, W 20363, W 21113.2}, location = {Leiden}, publisher = {Brill}, rescue_20140919 = {yes}, shortjournal = {JESHO}, sortkey = {Englund.R:1988_AdministrativeTimekeepingin}, timestamp = {2014-01-31}, walker_note = {[on the use of a 360-day calendar]}, } @Collection{ephal2003fstadmor, editor = {Eph’al, Israel and Ben-Tor, Amnon and Machinist, Peter and Eph’al, Israel and Ben-Tor, Amnon and Machinist, Peter}, title = {Hayim and Miriam Tadmor Volume}, year = {2003}, series = {Eretz-Israel Festschrift Series: Archaeological, Historical and Geographical Studies}, number = {27}, publisher = {Israel Exploration Society}, location = {Jerusalem}, pagetotal = {XII+291*+229}, url = {http://israelexplorationsociety.huji.ac.il/eretzisrael.htm}, urldate = {2013-12-05}, __booktitle = {Hayim and Miriam Tadmor Volume}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp}: “Appendix (other publications by authors cited above, and various marginally relevant items) [NB.

While tracing ideas from ancient Babylon to sixteenth-century Europe, the book places its greatest emphasis on the Greek period, when astronomers developed the geometric and philosophical ideas that have determined the subsequent character of Western astronomy. The author approaches this history through the concrete details of ancient astronomical practice. Carefully organized and generously illustrated, the book can teach readers how to do real astronomy using the methods of ancient astronomers. For example, readers will learn to predict the next retrograde motion of Jupiter using either the arithmetical methods of the Babylonians or the geometric methods of Ptolemy. They will learn how to use an astrolabe and how to design sundials using Greek and Roman techniques. The book also contains supplementary exercises and patterns for making some working astronomical instruments, including an astrolabe and an equatorium. More than a presentation of astronomical methods, the book provides a critical look at the evidence used to reconstruct ancient astronomy.

The legal aspect of this divinatory procedure is stated in these prayers as well as in other extispicy prayers (ikribu) (I). A detailed analysis of the “Prayers to the Gods of the Night” elucidates the timeframe and circumstances for the recitation of the prayers (II). Since the Old Babylonian versions of these prayers are called ikribu, i.e. extispicy prayers, their setting within the course of the extispicy ritual is evident. An examination of the procedures and sequence of events for this ritual as described in Neo-Assyrian tablets from Nineveh means they can be fixed exactly (III). This establishes the “Sitz-im-Leben” of the prayers (IV).

The resonance of the Tower of Babel, the Hanging Gardens, Daniel in the Lions Den or the madness of Nebuchadnezzar continues today even without popular certainty that Babylon itself ever existed. Drawing on three of the most important collections of artefacts from the ancient city of Babylon, at the British Museum, the Louvre and the Vorderasiatisches Museum, Berlin, this book brings to life Nebuchadnezzars magnificent state buildings with their famous glazed brick reliefs, and the great stepped tower or ziggurat that inspired the Biblical story of the Tower of Babel. Contemporary writings investigate the history, culture and religious life of the time, describing the Conquest of Jerusalem and the emergence of monotheism within Babylonian religion. Also included will be documents showing how ancient Babylons legacy lives on today tablets recording the signs of the zodiac, the appearance of Halleys Comet and the origins of modern calendars and clocks. While the real city remained lost under the sands of Iraq for 2000 years, a rich web of myths and associations gathered around the name. Babylon has inspired art, books, films, and music, and plays a powerful role in Rastafarian religion. This book explores how and why the magnificent ancient capital evolved into a universal symbol of the city of sin. The book brings together for the first time a wealth of art works from medieval manuscripts and major canvases to contemporary digital art, which have all been inspired by Babylon.}, bibmas = {1}, edition = {1}, sortkey = {Finkel.I:2008_BabylonMythReality}, timestamp={2015-05-13}, } @Article{finkelstein1963mesopotami, author = {Finkelstein, J.

His passion for the discoveries of his time is palpable throughout this classic introduction to astronomy, which stands as a landmark in the history of popular science writing. It features 360 illustrations, including highly detailed maps of the Moon and Mars, the latter being of special interest for Flammarion as he compared and contrasted it with the Earth. Originally published in 1880, the work won the approval of the Académie Française and the Minister of Public Instruction. This reissue is of the version that appeared in 1881 after 50,000 copies had already reached an enthusiastic readership. Its translation into English as Popular Astronomy (1894) and another accessible work by Flammarion, Le Monde avant la création de l’homme (1886), are also reissued in this series.

Excavations at Meskeneh-Qadimeh on the great bend of the Euphrates River revealed this large town, which had been built in the late 14th century and then destroyed violently at the beginning of the 12th, at the end of the Bronze Age. In the town of Emar, ritual tablets were discovered in a temple that are demonstrated to have been recorded by the supervisor of the local cult, who was called the “diviner.” This religious leader also operated a significant writing center, which focused on both administering local ritual and fostering competence in Mesopotamian lore. An archaic local calendar can be distinguished from other calendars in use at Emar, both foreign and local. A second, overlapping calendar emanated from the palace and represented a rising political force in some tension with rooted local institutions. The archaic local calendar can be partially reconstructed from one ritual text that outlines the rites performed during a period of six months. The main public rite of Emar’s religious calendar was the zukru festival. This event was celebrated in a simplified annual ritual and in a more elaborate version of the ritual for seven days during every seventh year, probably serving as a pledge of loyalty to the chief god, Dagan. The Emar ritual calendar was native, in spite of various levels of outside influence, and thus offers important evidence for ancient Syrian culture. These texts are thus important for ancient Near Eastern cultic and ritual studies. Fleming’s comprehensive study lays the basic groundwork for all future study of the ritual and makes a major contribution to the study of ancient Syria.}, alturl =

The upper back dial is a 19-year calendar, based on the Metonic cycle, arranged as a five-turn spiral. The lower back dial is a Saros eclipse-prediction dial, arranged as a four-turn spiral of 223 lunar months, with glyphs indicating eclipse predictions. Here we add surprising findings concerning these back dials. Though no month names on the Metonic calendar were previously known, we have now identified all 12 months, which are unexpectedly of Corinthian origin. The Corinthian colonies of northwestern Greece or Syracuse in Sicily are leading contenders-the latter suggesting a heritage going back to Archimedes. Calendars with excluded days to regulate month lengths, described in a first century bc source, have hitherto been dismissed as implausible. We demonstrate their existence in the Antikythera calendar, and in the process establish why the Metonic dial has five turns. The upper subsidiary dial is not a 76-year Callippic dial as previously thought8, but follows the four-year cycle of the Olympiad and its associated Panhellenic Games. Newly identified index letters in each glyph on the Saros dial show that a previous reconstruction needs modification. We explore models for generating the unusual glyph distribution, and show how the eclipse times appear to be contradictory. We explain the four turns of the Saros dial in terms of the full moon cycle and the Exeligmos dial as indicating a necessary correction to the predicted eclipse times. The new results on the Metonic calendar, Olympiad dial and eclipse prediction link the cycles of human institutions with the celestial cycles embedded in the Mechanism’s gearwork.}, bibmas = {1}, file = {freeth2008calendarsw.pdf:freeth2008calendarsw/freeth2008calendarsw.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, keywords = {/}, publisher = {Nature Publishing Group}, sortkey = {Freeth.T:2008_CalendarswithOlympiad}, timestamp ={2014-05-11}, } @Article{freeth2012thecosmosi, author = {Tony Freeth and Alexander Jones}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s collection}, journal = {ISAW Papers}, title = {The Cosmos in the Antikythera Mechanism}, year = {2012}, volume = {4}, month = feb, url = {http://dlib.nyu.edu/awdl/isaw/isaw-papers/4/}, urldate = {2013-10-23}, _month = {02}, abstract = {The Antikythera Mechanism is a fragmentarily preserved Hellenistic astronomical machine with bronze gearwheels, made about the second century B.C.

We report progress in reading a passage of one inscription that appears to describe the front of the Mechanism as a representation of a Greek geocentric cosmology, portraying the stars, Sun, Moon, and all five planets known in antiquity.

All results of these calculations are available online. The lunar data from the archive of Illahun are reanalysed and the uncertainties of the data reduction and possible absolute chronological assessments are discussed. The data can be fit best when a reign length of 30 years is allowed for pharaoh Senwosret III, which is in accordance with the given number for this king in the Turin papyrus. The lunar data do not support a low chronology of the Middle Kingdom. Two temporal assignments are possible in combination with the recorded date of a heliacal rising of Sirius on either IIII Peret 16 or 17 in the surrounding of Memphis. The best fit (82.5 percent reproduced cor- rectly) can be obtained with an assumed beginning of the day with dawn and year 1 of Senwosret III equalling 1872 BC and year 1 of Amenemhet III in 1842 BC respectively. In this case the correct Sirius date of year 7 Senwosret III in 1866 BC must have been IIII Peret 17 in order to match with the lunar data. The second possible fit (72.5 percent correct) is obtained with an assumed beginning of the day with sunrise and year 1 of Senwosret III equalling 1883 BC and year 1 of Amenemhet III in 1853 BC res- pectively.

Besonders wichtig sind in diesem Zusammenhang Sonnenfinsternisse. Hier wird ein neuer elektronisch verfügbarer Sonnenfinsterniskanon präsentiert, der speziell an die Bedürfnisse von Altertumswissenschaftlern angepasst wurde: er enthält Karten aller Sonnenfinsternisse zwischen 2500 v. Chr. und 1000 n. Chr., die im ausgewählten geographischen Bereich zwischen (20° N, 5° O), (20° N, 50° O), (50° N, 5° O) und (50° N, 50° O) potentiell auffällig waren und somit für Identifikationen von Finsternisberichten aus diesem geographischen Bereich in Frage kommen, auch wenn sie nicht vorhergesagt wurden. Der Sonnenfinsterniskanon ist online verfügbar unter http://www.gautschy.ch/~rita/archast/solec/finsternis.html. Als Anwendungsbeispiele werden einerseits die Ugarit-Finsternis und andererseits die Ennius-Finsternis diskutiert. Numerous astronomical records are passed down through ancient sources. Astronomical observations can be used to obtain absolute dates. Solar eclipses are the main source for such purposes. Here I present an electronic solar eclipse canon which was designed especially for the needs of historians: it contains maps of all solar eclipses in the geographical region between (20° N, 5° O), (20° N, 50° O), (50° N, 5° O) and (50° N, 50° O) which were potentially noticeable and therefore candidates for identifications of solar eclipse records even if the eclipse was not foretold. The solar eclipse canon is online available at http://www.gautschy.ch/~rita/archast/solec/solec.html. As examples of use the so called Ugarit eclipse and the Ennius eclipse are discussed.}, addendum = {confer \cite{gautschy2012kanonderso,gautschy2012canonofsol}}, affiliation = {Universität Basel, Ägyptologisches Seminar, Basel, Schweiz}, bibmas = {1}, file = {gautschy2012sonnenfins.pdf:gautschy2012sonnenfins/gautschy2012sonnenfins.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, keywords = {KTU 1.78 = Damascus MN 3689}, sortkey = {Gautschy.R:2012_Sonnenfinsternisseundihre}, timestamp ={2013-11-27}, } @Online{gautschy2012thestarsir, author = {Gautschy, Rita}, date = {2012-01}, title = {The Star Sirius in Ancient Egypt and Babylonia}, url = {http://www.gautschy.ch/~rita/archast/sirius/siriuseng.htm}, year = {2012}, urldate = {2013-11-27}, addendum = {confer \cite{gautschy2011dersternsi}}, language = {english}, month = jan, version = {2.0}, _month = {01}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\url{https://unibas.academia.edu/RitaGautschy}}, file = {gautschy2012thestarsir.pdf:gautschy2012thestarsir/gautschy2012thestarsir.pdf:PDF;gautschy2012thestarsir.htm:gautschy2012thestarsir/gautschy2012thestarsir.htm:URL}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, origlanguage = {german}, related = {gautschy2012dersternsi}, relatedtype = {translationof}, sortkey = {Gautschy.R:2012_starSiriusin}, sorttitle = {star Sirius in ancient Egypt and Babylonia, The}, timestamp ={2013-11-27}, } @Article{gautschy2014babylonian, author = {Rita Gautschy}, bibmas_src = {\url{https://unibas.academia.edu/RitaGautschy}}, journal = {Journal for the History of Astronomy}, title = {On the Babylonian Sighting-Criterion for the Lunar Crescent and its Implications for Egyptian Lunar Data}, year = {2014}, volume = {45}, number = {1}, pages = {79--90}, issn = {0021-8286}, url = {http://jha.sagepub.com/content/45/1/79}, doi = {10.1177/002182861404500105}, eprint = {http://jha.sagepub.com/content/45/1/79.full.pdf+html}, alturl = {\url{https://www.academia.edu/8167419}}, bibmas = {1}, file = {gautschy2014babylonian.pdf:gautschy2014babylonian/gautschy2014babylonian.pdf:PDF}, publisher = {SAGE Publications}, shortjournal = {JHA}, sortkey = {Gautschy.R:2014_BabylonianSightingCriterion}, sorttitle = {Babylonian Sighting-Criterion for the Lunar Crescent and its Implications for Egyptian Lunar Data}, timestamp={2015-06-04}, } @SuppPeriodical{gehlken1991derlaengst, author = {Gehlken, Erlend}, title = {Der längste Tag in Babylon}, year = {1991}, date = {1991-11-28}, subtitle = {(MUL.APIN und die Wasseruhr)}, number = {95}, issue = {winter}, month = dec, pages = {65--66}, issn = {0989-5671}, url = {http://sepoa.fr/?page_id=146}, urldate = {2013-10-23}, _month = {12}, alturl = {\url{http://www.achemenet.com/pdf/nabu/nabu1991-095.pdf}}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s notes #and# Ossendrijver’s collection #and# \cite{gent2004calendarsa} [Timekeeping (Water Clocks, etc.)]}, file = {version http\://www.achemenet.com/:gehlken1991derlaengst/gehlken1991derlaengst.pdf:PDF;version sepoa.fr (whole bulletin):gehlken1991derlaengst/gehlken1991derlaengsta.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, journal = {Nouvelles Assyriologiques Brèves et Utilitaires}, keywords = {MUL.APIN}, shortjournal = {NABU}, sortkey = {Gehlken.E:1991_laengsteTag}, sorttitle = {laengste Tag in Babylon, Der}, timestamp ={2013-10-23}, } @Incollection{gehlken2000sonnenaufg, author = {Gehlken, Erlend}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp} #and# \cite{gent2004astrologyo} [Enuma Anu Enlil]}, booktitle = {Studi sul Vicino Oriente Antico dedicati alla memoria di Luigi Cagni, Val.

The zodiac—a means of predicting the movements of heavenly bodies—transformed older divination (such as hemerologies listing lucky and unlucky days) and introduced more favorable magical techniques and medical prescriptions, which are comparable to those found in Ptolemy’s Tetrabiblos and non-Hippocratic Greek medicine.

Mesopotamian astronomy and astrology. When online editions are available, appropriate internet links are provided. In order to make this bibliography more useful, the references are grouped into related topics. Within each topic, the references are not listed alphabetically by author but are given in chronological order. In this way it is easier to focus on developments in a particular field of inquiry during a particular period. This bibliography is not restricted to the recent literature but an effort has been made to include the earlier literature as completely as possible. Although the earliest references are now outdated and largely erroneous, they show how our present understanding of the astral sciences of the Mesopotamians has evolved from the earliest days of Assyriology to the present day.

C. E., which mention Antiochus IV Epiphanes and consequently bear chronological implications for Seleucid history. While the documents discussed do not upset the accepted reconstruction of Seleucid history, they add to our knowledge of the period. The first diary discussed mentions a “procession” (pompḗ). We claim that this procession should not be identified with Antiochus IV’s famous procession at Daphne but was a local festival of the Greeks of Babylon, celebrated in honor of their king’s victorious Egyptian campaign. There are two significant notices in a diary for 165. The first refers to Antiochus’ Armenian expedition while the second, it is argued, alludes to his efforts to explore the Persian Gulf. The diary’s date and the geographical information it contains add to our knowledge of Antiochus IV’s movements during that year. The last diary mentions a party escorting the corpse of a king, who must be Antiochus IV. On the basis of Jewish sources, the party’s leader is identified as Philip, the dead king’s sýntrophos.

It did not do justice to the special nature of the available evidence, even ignored some of it, and at critical points relied solely on preconceived notions of historical probability. A new attempt to elucidate the chronology of this period therefore seems justified. In this paper an inductive approach is advocated that leads to a reinterpretation of Hl.A/B, the commemorative inscription for Nabonidus’ mother: the last regnal year of the kings preceding Nabopolassar was not counted because it coincided with the “year without king”, 626; thus, Assur-etel-iläni 4 = Nabopolassar 0. Addaguppi’s age is calculated in years-of-reign of legitimate kings; her 104 years equal 102 calender years. The conjectured discrepancy of two years between her true age and the statement of Hl.A/B is inexistent. Within this framework, Sin-sumu-lTsir’s accession can be dated unequivocally to 626 by means of economic texts from Nippur. An unprejudiced examination of the Nabopolassar Epic yields new evidence against using ABC 2 as an historical text. Without recourse to arbitrary criteria, a precise dating of Sin-sar-iskun’s accession is therefore not possible. The range of possible years can, however, be accurately narrowed down to 627 or 626; current estimates on the number of post-canonical eponyms point to the higher date, but are as yet speculative. Synchronisms: Assurbanipal 42 = Assur-etel-iläni 3 (= Sin-sar-iskun 0); Nabopolassar 0 = Sin-sar-iskun 0/1 = Sin-sumu-lTsir 0 = Assur-etel-iläni 4.}, bibmas = {1}, file = {gerber1998dieinschri.pdf:gerber1998dieinschri/gerber1998dieinschri.pdf:PDF}, language = {german}, shortjournal = {ZA}, sortkey = {Gerber.M:1998_InschriftHarran1AB}, sorttitle = {Inschrift H(arran)1.A/B und die neubabylonische Chronologie}, timestamp={2015-06-03}, } @Conference{gerber1999theinfluen, author = {Gerber, Manuel}, title = {The Influence of Astronomy on Neo- and Late Babylonian Historiography}, booktitle = {The inspiration of astronomical phenomena II – Proceedings}, year = {2000}, eventtitle = {INSAP II}, eventdate = {1999-01-07/1999-07-14}, venue = {Malta}, organization = {University of Malta}, url = {http://www.insap.org/insap/program2.htm}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004astronomic} [Other Reports and General Discussions] [[\#ERR] according to \url{http://www.insap.org/publications.html}, the publication of this conference is still tentative and publication date not set; Gent supposes editors R.

Here statistical evidence is presented that the sources of the chronicles dealing with political events up to the time recorded in Chron. 2 were astrological texts. The number of coincidences between exact dates in the examined chronicles and an adannu of 30 days after ominous planetary events is compared to the number that can be expected in a random sample of dates between 750-600. The null-hypothesis that the number of coincidences found in the chronicle sample is random could be rejected at a safe p < 0.02. The long-sought “common source” of the late Babylonian chronicles dealing with the eighth and seventh centuries was therefore in all probability a corpus of astrological texts. Chronicles dealing with later times were compiled from texts of a different nature. This shift from one kind of source texts to another makes a diachronically differentiated approach in the evaluation of the information contained in individual chronicles imperative. The design of the proposed test necessitates a sound basis for finding the possible Julian equivalents of Babylonian dates. A reanalysis of New Year’s dates inferred from eclipse data in LBAT 1413-1417 and of New Year’s dates between 626-539 is therefore presented in the first part of this paper. An average beginning of the year two weeks before equinox is demonstrated to be probable only until 730. From that time to the end of Nabopolassar’s reign a constant ratio of ∼7 intercalations per 19 years was maintained, which kept the average Babylonian New Year’s date a few days before equinox. Only at the turn to the sixth century can a second shift to even later dates be demonstrated.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004astronomic} [Other Reports and General Discussions]}, copyright = {Copyright © 2000 American Oriental Society}, file = {gerber2000acommonsou.pdf:gerber2000acommonsou/gerber2000acommonsou.pdf:PDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, jstor_formatteddate = {Oct. – Dec., 2000}, publisher = {American Oriental Society}, shortjournal = {JAOS}, sortkey = {Gerber.M:2000_CommonSourceLate}, sorttitle = {Common Source for the Late Babylonian Chronicles Dealing with the Eighth and Seventh Centuries}, timestamp = {2015-06-03}, } @Inproceedings{gerber2000thebabylon, author = {Gerber, Manuel}, booktitle = {Oxford VI and SEAC 1999}, date = {1999/2000}, editor = {Esteban, César and Belmonte, Juan Antonio}, title = {The Babylonian Civil Calendar 731-626 BC}, year = {2000}, subtitle = {Evidence for Pre-’Metonic’ Periodic Intercalation Patterns}, booksubtitle = {Astronomy and Cultural Diversity}, eventtitle = {Oxford VI and SEAC 7th 99}, publisher = {Organismo Autónomo de Museos y Centros, Cabildo de Tenerife}, isbn = {84-88594-24-0}, pages = {244--248}, url = {http://archeoastronomy.org/publications/}, urldate = {2014-04-12}, location = {Santa Cruz de Tenerife}, abstract = {It is commonly assumed that Babylonian intercalations did not follow regular patterns before the 5th century B.C.

(Also, all the entries are hand-written with very few slips.) Though compiled from references that can date back to the turn of the 19th-century it is still considered to be the standard reference. (Two-thirds of the sources used by Felix Gössmann pre-date 1920 i.e., fall within the pioneering period of assyriology and efforts to recover Babylonian astronomy. Because the majority of his sources are over 90 years old and the book itself is over 60 years old it needs to be used with caution.) Improved modern translations of some constellation and star names (due to various changes in transliteration format since 1950) are, of course, not reflected in the book and some revision is required. For corrections/improvements to constellation and star names, and their identifications, see Babylonian Planetary Omens 2 by Erica Reiner and David Pingree (1981); and Astral Sciences in Mesopotamia by Hermann Hunger and David Pingree (1999). To date I have not come across any book review for this volume. See obituaries for Pater Felix Gössmann O. S. A. in Augustinianum (Review), Volume 8, 1968, Pages 547-550; and Cor Unum (Review), Volume 26, 1968, Pages 119-120. Also see: Who’s Who in the Catholic World (1967, Volume 1), edited by Stephen Taylor. Gössmann was born in 1907 in Sulzwiesan, Germany. He was the son of Joseph Gössmann, a farmer. Felix Gössmann had a Doctor of Theology degree (= Doctor of Philosophy degree) and Doctor of Assyriology degree. He was a member of the Augustinian order, which he entered in 1920. From 1937 to 1938 he was a professor at the Augustinian College of Nijmegan. Life dates: 1907-1968. To keep in mind when reading the material and interpretations in this book: The Akkadians borrowed Sumerian cuneiform script for writing their own language and whilst they retained numerous Sumerian signs they also added their own. According to the cuneiform philologist John Heise, Akkadian speakers systematically used the Sumerian language at least to the Old Babylonian Period. It was the language of the Akkadian-speaking scholars. However, Sumerograms did not necessarily represent Sumerian loan words in the Akkadian language. It may be that there has been an Akkadian adaptation of a Sumerian logogram. A logogram used in an Akkadian text could represent either a loan word from Sumerian or a native Akkadian word. It was a general convention in ancient Mesopotamian scientific texts to use Sumerian word-signs to render Akkadian vocabulary words. However, it is not (always) possible to decide whether the Sumerian words used in later (non-Sumerian) times are actually Sumerian in origin or are just later Babylonian notions recorded in anachronistic Sumerian. No conclusion can be confidently drawn from the later use of Sumerian terms regarding the time or place of the origin of the content of the texts.}, timestamp ={2014-01-31}, }

Dordrecht/Boston/London: Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2000. USD 132, £84, NLG 270. Bernard R. Goldstein Ancient and medieval astronomical observations are of interest to astronomers as well as to historians of the exact sciences, and studying them demands facility in several disciplines. In the late nineteenth century, the leading American astronomer, Simon Newcomb, addressed these issues with sensitivity, but subsequent astronomers have largely turned to other matters. John Steele combines a variety of skills and has produced a volume of great value that draws together information from a wide range of sources. He restricts his attention to solar and lunar eclipses for which the times of phases are preserved, whether computed or observed, in textual materials from Babylonian, ancient Greek, medieval Arabic, Hebrew, and Latin, as well as Chinese and Japanese, sources prior to 1600. He also provides brief but useful introductions to the various astronomical cultures under discussion and the character of the sources in which the records are preserved. Observations are clearly distinguished from “predictions,” a term used here for ancient and medieval computations (there is little discussion of whether the “predictions” were made before or after the event), and both of them from modern computations. The accuracy of the observations and predictions are evaluated separately. Three user‐friendly appendixes summarize much of the data: late Babylonian eclipse records; Chinese sunrise and sunset times; and timed Chinese eclipse records. In recent years the Babylonian material in the so‐called Astronomical Diaries has appeared in print with text and translation, but without any analysis of the observations in them. Other Babylonian eclipse observations are preserved on tablets that have not been translated, and access to them has been limited to those able to read Akkadian. With the publication of this book, the entire corpus of known Babylonian eclipse records is now available, together with a determination of their accuracy. Since many of these records are fragmentary, dating them requires careful analysis. For example, it has long been argued that the Babylonians began systematically to record astronomical observations in 747 b.c., based in part on a remark in Ptolemy’s Almagest. This claim has been supported by appeal to a badly damaged Babylonian tablet that was published in transcription as LBAT No. 1413 in Abraham J. Sachs, Late Babylonian Astronomical and Related Texts Copied by T. G. Pinches and J. N. Strassmaier (Providence: Brown University Press, 1955). Steele offers a previously unpublished translation of it by Hermann Hunger and reconsiders the data, concluding that it most likely refers to a lunar eclipse in 747-746 b.c. but that not enough is known about the Babylonian calendar to exclude 801-800 b.c. (pp. 43-45). At the other end of the time period covered here are the eclipses observed by Tycho Brahe between 1573 and 1600. The author concludes that although Tycho’s observations are the most accurate, the observations by Johannes Regiomontanus and Bernhard Walther between 1457 and 1504 are only marginally less accurate (p. 154). Steele has excluded eclipse records without times for phases, and so medieval records embedded in historical accounts are not mentioned. Similarly, the vexed questions concerning reports in ancient Greek histories of total solar eclipses are passed over in silence. But the exclusion of an annular solar eclipse observed by al‐Irānshahrī in 873 and reported by al‐Bīrūnī seems arbitrary because this observation (even without timed phases) seems to be both historically and scientifically significant (see Bernard R. Goldstein, “Medieval Observations of Solar and Lunar Eclipses,” Archives Internationales d’Histoire des Sciences, 1979, 29:101-156, cited by Steele for other records). In sum, we now have a rich and reliable source of data that can be consulted with confidence.}, bibmas = {1}, contents = {Reviewed work(s): John M. Steele.

year = {2009}, language = {english}, url = {http://etheses.dur.ac.uk/101/}, urldate = {2014-01-30}, abstract = {Throughout the Late Babylonian Period, Mesopotamian astronomers made nightly observations of the planets, Moon and stars. Based on these observations, they developed several different techniques for predicting future astronomical events. The present study aims to improve our understanding of a particular empirical method of prediction, whichmade use of planetary periods – a period of time over which a planet’s motion recurs very closely – to predict that planet’s future motion. Various planetary periods are referred to in many Late Babylonian astronomical texts. By collecting together these periods and analysing their effectiveness, it was found that, generally, the most effective of the planetary periods were those which were used in the production of a particular type of text known as a Goal-Year Text. The Goal-Year Texts contain excerpts of astronomical observational records, with the planetary records having been taken from particular observation years with these planetary periods in mind – such that each planet’s motion will recur during the same, specific, future year. It has been suggested that they form an intermediate step towards the compilation of the nonmathematical predictive texts known as Almanacs and Normal Star Almanacs. An analysis of theoretically calculated dates of planetary events showed that, if the Goal-Year Texts were to be used as a source for making empirical predictions, particular corrections (specific to each planet) would need to be applied to the dates of the planetary records found in the Goal-Year Texts. These corrections take the form of regular corrections to the day of an event (a “date correction”), and more irregular corrections of ±1 month (a “month shift”). An extensive investigation of the Babylonian nonmathematical texts demonstrated that the observed differences in the dates of events, when comparing equivalent records in all known extant Almanacs and Normal Star Almanacs with those in the Goal-Year Texts, were extremely consistent with theoretical expectations. This lends considerable support to the theory that the Goal-Year Texts’ records formed the “raw data” used in the compilation of the Almanacs and Normal Star Almanacs. It was also possible to analyse several other aspects of Late Babylonian non-mathematical astronomy during the course of this study. These topics include the usage of particular stars in the predictive texts, the meaning of certain terminology found in records of the Babylonian zodiacal signs, and the specific issues related to the planet Mercury’s periods of visibility and invisibility. Therefore, this investigation enhances many aspects of our knowledge of Late Babylonian astronomical practices.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{ossendrijver2012babylonian}}, file = {gray2009astudyofba.pdf:gray2009astudyofba/gray2009astudyofba.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, school = {Durham University, Department of Physics}, series = {Durham theses}, sortkey = {Gray.J:2009_StudyBabylonianGoal}, sorttitle = {Study of Babylonian Goal-Year Planetary Astronomy, A}, timestamp = {2014-01-30}, } @Article{gray2009studieson2, author = {Gray, Jennifer Mary Knightley and Steele, John M.}, title = {Studies on Babylonian Goal-Year Astronomy II}, journal = {Archive for History of Exact Sciences}, year = {2009}, date = {2009-11}, subtitle = {The Babylonian calendar and goal-year methods of prediction}, language = {english}, volume = {63}, number = {6}, month = nov, pages = {611--633}, issn = {00039519}, doi = {10.1007/s00407-009-0048-z}, urldate = {2013-10-23}, _month = {11}, abstract = {This paper is the second part of an investigation into Babylonian non-mathematical astronomical texts and the relationships between Babylonian observational and predicted astronomical data. Part I (\cite{gray2008studieson1}) showed that the predictions found in the Almanacs and Normal Star Almanacs were almost certainly made by applying Goal-Year periods to observations recorded in the Goal-Year Texts. The paper showed that the differences in dates of records between the Goal-Year Texts and the Almanacs or Normal Star Almanacs were consistent with the date corrections of a few days which, according to theoretical calculations, should be added to allow for the inexactness of Goal-Year periods. The current paper follows on from our earlier study to consider the effect of the Babylonian calendar on Goal-Year methods of prediction. Due to the fact that the Babylonian calendar year can contain either 12 or 13 months, a Goal-Year period can occasionally be month longer or shorter than usual. This suggests that there should in theory be certain points in the Metonic intercalation cycle where a predicted event occurs one Babylonian month earlier or later than the corresponding event a Goal-Year period later. By comparing dates of lunar and planetary records in the Astronomical Diaries, Goal-Year Texts, Almanacs and Normal Star Almanacs, we show that these month differences between the observational records and the predictions occur in the expected years. This lends further support to the theory that the Almanacs’ and Normal Star Almanacs’ predictions originated from records in the Goal-Year Texts, and clarifies how the Goal-Year periods were used in practice.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp} #and# Ossendrijver’s collection}, copyright = {Copyright © 2009 Springer}, file = {gray2009studieson2.pdf:gray2009studieson2/gray2009studieson2.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, keywords = {LBAT 1055, LBAT 1123, LBAT 1016, LBAT 1179 + LBAT 1180, BM 34033}, location = {New York and Berlin and Heidelberg}, publisher = {Springer Science}, shortjournal = {AHES}, sortkey = {Gray.J:2009_StudiesBabyloniangoal}, timestamp = {2013-10-23}, } @Inproceedings{grayson1966divination, author = {Grayson, Albert Kirk}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004astrologyo} [Astrology in General]}, booktitle = {La divination en Mésopotamie ancienne et dans les régions voisines}, editor = {Wendel, F. and Nougayrol, J. and Gadd, C.

The correspondingly defined set of data for two lunar eclipses of EAE 20 and 21 tablets linked to Ur III period enables us the choice of eclipses of 27 June 1954 BC and 17 March 1912 BC; here the information on the exit position of the darkening of the lunar disk acts as a crucial informator survived in the records. We then discuss why the 56/64 year Venus cycle cannot be traced in the Venus Tablet and therefore cannot serve as an anchor for the search of chronologies. The month length method is discussed as well. In sum the available data support the Ultra-Low Chronology proposed in the book by H.Gasche, J.A.Armstrong, S.W.Cole and V.G.Gurzadyan, “Dating the Fall of Babylon” (1998) and, particularly, leave no astronomical background for the High Chronology.

The study seeks to understand what constituted the Sumerian conceptualization of the moon-god and the inner workings of his cult. The following major problems were dealt with in the course of the study.^ Organizing and treating the huge written corpus was the first problem. It had to be examined in its entirety so that well-founded and thoroughly researched conclusions about the moon-god could be made. The massive size of the textual corpus also caused problems of methodology. An approach had to be found which would coherently organize the amount of textual information available and take into consideration important factors which condition the evaluation of the evidence such as time period, provenience, text type, and lexical obscurities. Problems of interpretation were ultimately the most challenging. The problem of obtaining objective data undistorted by cultural bias and preconceived notions and the limitations of evidence consisting solely of remnants of a dead civilization were recognized.^ To deal with these probelms the following methodology was used. Whole chapters were devoted to particular types of evidence. Each chapter was organized according to time period and provenience was carefully noted. Lexical problems and the way in which text type affects the evaluation of the evidence were given full consideration. Interpretations were separated from the presentation of the evidence. In this way the most objective and unbiased evaluation of the evidence was insured.^ Through this methodology the historical development of conceptualizations of the moon-god and the range of his cult could be traced. The examination of all the evidence led to the conclusion that the moon-god derived his essential characteristics from the cyclical phases of the moon. The moon’s ever-renewing cycle was interpreted by the Sumerians as a sign of the moon-god’s inherent power to regenerate himself each month. It was believed that he could bestow this power upon all living creatures. Hence, the moon-god was a fertility god. His cult was designed to transfer the moon’s generative power to the sphere of man, thus insuring the continued procreation of crops, animals, and the generations of mankind. }, bibmas = {1}, contents = {\url{http://search.proquest.com/docview/303380886}}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, school = {University of Pennsylvania}, sortkey = {Hall.M:1985_StudySumerianMoon}, sorttitle = {Study of the Sumerian Moon God Nanna/Suen, A}, timestamp={2014-04-11}, } @Article{hall1986ahymntothe, author = {Hall, Mark Glenn}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004astralmyth} [Astral Mythology]}, journal = {Journal of Cuneiform Studies}, title = {A Hymn to the Moon-God, Nanna}, year = {1986}, volume = {38}, number = {2}, issue = {fall}, pages = {152--166}, issn = {00220256}, url = {http://www.jstor.org/stable/1359797}, doi = {10.2307/1359797}, urldate = {2014-04-11}, bibmas = {1}, copyright = {Copyright © 1986 The American Schools of Oriental Research}, file = {hall1986ahymntothe.pdf:hall1986ahymntothe/hall1986ahymntothe.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, jstor_formatteddate = {Autumn, 1986}, keywords = {UET 6/1:68, Ni 4049, CBS 11363 + CBS 12701 + N 3525 + CBS 12672 + N 3317, CBS 11363}, language = {english}, location = {Boston}, publisher = {American Schools of Oriental Research}, shortjournal = {JCS}, sortkey = {Hall.M:1986_HymntoMoon}, sorttitle = {Hymn to the Moon-God Nanna, A}, timestamp={2014-04-11}, } @Review{hallo1963reviewpett, author = {Hallo, William W.}, bibmas_src = {Bibliography “Cuneiform Mathematical texts” (unknown parent, pp 219-335)}, journal = {Bibliotheca Orientalis}, title = {La Collezione Schollmeyer (1974), Pettinato G \& Waetzoldt H [Review]}, year = {1976}, volume = {33}, pages = {38--40}, publisher = {Nederlands Instituut voor het Nabije Oosten (NINO)}, location = {Leiden}, _reviewof = {\cite{pettinato1974lacollezio}}, bibmas = {1}, groups = {rather_math}, issn = {0006-1913}, onlymath = {1}, related = {pettinato1974lacollezio}, relatedtype = {reviewof}, shortjournal = {BiOr}, shortpublisher = {NINO}, sortkey = {Hallo.W:1976_ReviewLaCollezione}, sorttitle = {Collezione Schollmeyer (1974), Pettinato G & Waetzoldt H [Review]}, timestamp ={2013-12-13}, url = {http://www.nino-leiden.nl/publications.aspx?id=5}, urldate = {2013-12-13}, } @Book{hallo1971theancient, author = {Hallo, William W. and Simpson, William Kelly}, bibmas_src = {Bibliography “Cuneiform Mathematical texts” (unknown parent, pp 219-335) #and# \cite{gent2004generallit} [General Overviews on the History, Culture \& Literature of Mesopotamia]}, title = {The Ancient Near East}, year = {1971}, subtitle = {A History}, publisher = {Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, Inc.}, isbn = {0-15-503819-2 ;

During these two and a half millennia (ca. 3000-500 BCE), the Near East is the primary locus of written documentation, and thus the place where the emergence of humanity’s achievements can be followed in detail. Two centuries of persistent exploration of the Near East have led to the recovery of much of this documentation, and the recovery continues at an unabated pace. The discoveries made in the field, and their interpretation in the scholarly literature, are brought to the attention of a wide public in three volumes, prepared by leading scholars in all the principal language areas of the ancient Near East. The first volume to be published, Canonical Compositions from the Biblical World, is devoted to “literary” texts – those responses to the world about them by which the creative minds of antiquity sought to come to terms with their environment, real or imaginary. The second volume, Monumental Inscriptions from the Biblical World, emphasizes “historical” texts: the monuments in which the rulers attempted to memorialize their achievements and lesser mortals expressed their loyalty or piety. The third volume, Archival Documents from the Biblical World, incorporates “economic” texts – the unassuming records of daily life which nonetheless go far toward permitting the reconstruction of social, legal and commercial institutions that concerned the majority of humanity. All these canons, monuments and documents provide the context in which Biblical literature flowered. They have therefore been selected in part to illuminate the comparisons or contrasts with specific Biblical passages that have been identified in the scholarly literature. These passages are identified in each selection, and in the extensive bibliography provided. Other selections have been made to illustrate the range of the ancient documentation, or to highlight new discoveries. Elaborate indices are designed to call attention, not only to Biblical parallels, but to those among the ancient sources themselves.

The Heavenly Writing: Divination, Horoscopy, and Astronomy in Mesopotamian Culture. New York: Cambridge University Press. 2004. Pp. xxvi, 331. USD 70.00. William W. Hallo, Yale University Fifty‐five years ago, Naphtali Herz Tur‐Sinai, also known as Harry Torczyner, published a brief article entiled “Šiṭir Šamê: Die Himmelsschrift,” referring thus to the nocturnal sky with the idiom sometimes used by the cuneiform sources (Archiv Orientální 17 [1949]). Much of his short study was given over to Psalm 19 and other proposed biblical parallels (e.g. Job 38:33). When Francesca Rochberg published this book under the same title, it seemed conceivable that she was mining the same lode. But she was not. Hers is a massive disquisition on Babylonian astronomy and astrology, the difference between these two branches of ancient Mesopotmian learning, and the interrelationship between them, introduced by a long polemic against those who question whether either or both of them belong in the history of science. The author is known as one of the most astute interpreters of cuneiform texts whose reputation rests on a partial edition of the great cuneiform astrological series enuma Anu Enlil (1988), a definitive study of Babylonian Horoscopes (1998), and a stunning number of pathbreaking articles on the wider implications of Babylonian divination, including the “canonization” of the textual evidence. But the present book shows her equally at home with the specialized literature of the philosophy and history of science, disciplines far beyond the range of this reviewer, who will therefore confine his comments to its Assyriological contributions. Here the first questions to be raised are to what extent does Rochberg’s interpretation of the cuneiform evidence represent or reflect the current consensus, and to what extent does it represent her own particular take on the issues at stake, some of them of considerable weight in the history of ideas. To take an initial example of the latter, one might cite her emphasis on horoscopes, accounting for no less than three out of seven chapters and adding up almost to a sequel to her previous book on the same subject. But there are many other respects in which her presentation is au courant with current issues in the field, and she is able to furnish an informed opinion on one side or the other. Rochberg is well served by her thorough mastery of Akkadian, the language of most of her Mesopotamian texts; Sumerian, though in native eyes the fountainhead of knowledge, was not used for astral science. The immediate heirs of this science were Hellenistic Egypt in the West and India in the East, and Rochberg has no difficulty drawing these (derivative) syntheses into her purview. If, in the process, the priority and originality of Greek (or Sanskrit) astronomy is called into serious question, that is not unparalleled in current intellectual history; if anything, one could push the Babylonian origin of a number of calendaric and astronomical innovations further back than she does, as far back, perhaps, as the accession of the Babylonian King Nabonassar in 747 b.c.e. One might also quibble with Rochberg’s explanation for the astronomical diary texts, which she thinks were intended as source books for new horoscopes. Others regard them rather as source books for a new omen series, but neither view can be proved as yet. Though few readers will be able to follow the entire line of argument in this learned volume, they will come away with a deeper sense of the complexity, the profundity, and the antiquity of ancient Mesopotamian scholarship.}, bibmas = {1}, copyright = {Copyright © 2006 American Historical Association}, date = {2006-04}, doi = {10.1086/ahr.111.2.592}, file = {hallo2006reviewroch.pdf:hallo2006reviewroch/hallo2006reviewroch.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, issn = {00028762}, jstor_articletype = {book-review}, related = {rochberg2004theheavenl}, relatedtype = {reviewof}, sortkey = {Hallo.W:2006_FrancescaRochbergHeavenly}, sorttitle = {Heavenly Writing (2004), Rochberg F [Review]}, timestamp ={2014-02-28}, url = {http://www.jstor.org/stable/10.1086/ahr.111.2.592}, urldate = {2014-02-28}, } @Incollection{hallo2008mulapinand, author = {Hallo, William W.}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp}}, booktitle = {Studies in Ancient Near Eastern world view and society}, editor = {van der Spek, R.

A contemporary of Alexander the Great and the first Seleucid kings, he wrote a history of the world in Greek and for a Greek audience, but articulating his Babylonian perspective: he told Greek conquerors about the culture they had conquered. The Babyloniaca, as the work was probably called, was influential through the ages: in antiquity, it was quoted directly or indirectly by such diverse thinkers as Alexander Polyhistor and Eusebius. The text was lost in the middle ages but continued to be read in fragments and paraphrases. When the fragments were reassembled (and indeed forged) in the Renaissance, Berossos found himself at the heart of crucial debates about authenticity, scholarship and the shape of divine and human history. This edited volume, the first ever devoted to Berossos and his work, brings together leading scholars from a range of academic disciplines, including Classics, Assyriology, Iranology, Ancient History, Patristics, the History of Science and Renaissance Studies, to reassess the life, work and reception of one of the most fascinating and elusive figures in antiquity.

However, the development towards a single ‘stabilised’ transmitted form that marks the biblical manuscripts between the second century B.C.E. and second century C.E. is often considered to permit the Hebrew bible a unique position in the ancient Near Eastern textual corpus. The degree to which the wider body of ancient Near Eastern texts actually support or undermine this position is the topic of this dissertation. The study begins by formulating a methodology for comparing the accuracy with which ancient texts of varying genres and languages were transmitted. Exemplars from the first millennium B.C.E. cuneiform evidence are selected for analysis on the basis of genre. Texts that are preserved in more than one ancient copy are compared to determine how much variation occurs between manuscripts of the same text. The study begins with representative texts from the Neo-Assyrian, Neo-Babylonian and Late Babylonian periods that range in date from the late eighth century B.C.E. to the third century B.C.E. The study then turns to the Torah scrolls from the Dead Sea area that range in date from the third century B.C.E. to the second century C.E. The accuracy with which the cuneiform texts were transmitted is then compared with the biblical evidence. The study finds that the most stable texts surveyed are those containing ritual instructions.

Of interest is the quote (Page 464) by Geoffrey Elton that succinctly critiques the use of statistics in solving complex historical problems, and a concluding statement (Page 494) regarding the lack of stabilisation in the transmission of astronomical/omen cuneiform texts. The latter is interesting. Hobson’s examination demonstrates persistent error-making by a trained scribal elite in copying cuneiform astronomical/omen texts. And this error-making occurred over a relatively short period of time. A tradition of oral transmission did exist in Mesopotamia. The numerous variants of popular myths is used as an argument for an oral tradition in Mesopotamia. A group of “experts” and later, in the Neo-Assyrian period (circa 950-600 BCE), “chief singers” is identified with oral tradition. It is accepted by a number of scholars that these persons would make slight changes. However, it appears that in Mesopotamia there was an early reliance/preference for scribes trained to accurately copy texts. According to The Cambridge History of the Bible (Volume 1, 1975, Page 40): “In Mesopotamia oral tradition played only a limited part in the transmission of literary texts after 2,700 B.C., the scribe using an oral source only when all else failed.” It is quite evident that scribal tradition = variation and copyist errors. Even the text of the omen series Enuma Anu Enlil exhibits divergences and was not really fixed.}, timestamp ={2015-06-12}, } @Proceedings{hodson1974theplaceof, title = {The Place of Astronomy in the Ancient World}, year = {1974}, date = {1974-05-02}, editor = {Hodson, F.

Research Globe based on data of Hipparchus of Nicaea | Author: Susanne M. Hoffmann | Copyright: Susanne M. Hoffmann The modern concept of describing positions of stars by celestial coordinates has been formed in Greek antiquity. The first source we have which uses exact coordinates is the star catalogue in Ptolemy’s Almagest from the second century CE but earlier approaches show up at least in Hipparchus’s work in the second century BCE which is mostly not preserved. Since we are sure that there had been transfers of concepts of mathematical astronomy from Babylon to Greece in the time of Hipparchus, this project analyses the amount of transfers: Which Greek constellations were copied from Babylonian ones? Which Chaldean astrological tools and concepts did the ancients include in Greek mathematical astronomy? And which Babylonian lists of stars or other data did Greek astronomers use to set up or improve their own mathematical astronomy? The result shall be a better understanding of the transfer of concepts of describing stellar positions and the development of scientific understanding from astrological and literary tales about the relations of constellations to mathematical descriptions with spherical coordinate systems.

Without presupposing deeper mathematical knowledge on the part of the reader the author assumes that he is accustomed to thinking in numbers. After an introduction to the sexagesimal place value system, the article presents the key techniques of Babylonian mathematical astronomy through three examples. Illustrating at the same time some of the difficulties involved in interpreting the numerical schemes: 1) The movement of the Sun according to “system A”, computed by means of a step function (as explained in a procedure text which is presented). 2) The movement of the Moon with relation to the Saros period, the $\phi$-function and its computation by means of a zigzag-function. The relation of the $\phi$-function and certain cognates to the computation of the daily movement of the Moon and the distance between consecutive full moons is described together with the recent results of Lis Brack-Bernsen on its probably roots in the observation of horizon phenomena. 3) The use of a third-order interpolation scheme to determine the movement of Jupiter.

In addition to acting as useful shorthand, use of the Greek-Letter designations for these phenomena allows us to avoid the problem of the exact interpretation of these phenomena. For example, Huber has argued that Ω should probably be understood as the first date on which a planet was not seen, rather than the last day on which it was seen. These observations sometimes have a remark about the “ideal” date when the phenomena was supposed to occur. This often appears with a measurement of the time from sunrise/set to the observed phenomena. The aim of this thesis is to study two aspects of Babylonian observational astronomy. One is the interpretation of Θ, one of the “Greek letter” phenomenon, and proving through analysis of the texts that its precise meaning should be understood as acronycal rising as opposed to opposition. The other is to go some way towards finding the system for correcting an observation when a time measurement of the difference in the time between the planet and the sun rising or setting is recorded along with an “ideal” or “true” date.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\url{http://members.westnet.com.au/gary-david-thompson/page3.html}}, file = {hollywood2002astudyofla.pdf:hollywood2002astudyofla/hollywood2002astudyofla.pdf:PDF}, sortkey = {Hollywood.L:2002_studylateBabylonian}, sorttitle = {study of late Babylonian planetary records}, thompson_note = {under the supervision of Dr John Steele.

INTRODUCTION: The return of Halley’s comet in the fall of 1985 was celebrated by modern historians and astronomers with a series of studies that examined records of previous visitations of the comet in the premodern world. Fore­most among these was the British Museum publication Halley’s Comet in History, in which a team of scholars joined together to study visitations of Halley’s Comet from 240 B.C. until its return in A.D. 1682, when it was identified by Edmund Halley, whose name it now bears. In Halley’s Comet in History the cuneiformists published two Babylonian astronomical diarytablets for the second half of the year 148 of the Seleucid Era (= 164/163 B.C.) recording observations of Halley’s Comet in the sky over Babylonia in the autumn of 164 B.C.2 AS a comet visible over Babylonia would have been visible over Judaea at the same time, this means that Halley’s Comet shone in the sky over Jerusalem during the autumn of 164 B.C., when Judaea was in revolt against the Seleucid Empire and its king Antiochus IV Epiphanes.}, affiliation = {Hebrew University, Jerusalem, Israel}, alturl = {\url{http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=rfh&AN=ATLA0001015440&site=ehost-live}}, bibmas = {1}, file = {horowitz1996halleyscom.pdf:horowitz1996halleyscom/horowitz1996halleyscom.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, keywords = {BM 33850}, location = {Leiden}, optkeywords = {Comets--Religious aspects, Hanukkah (Feast of Lights), Jews--History--332-63 BC, Jews--History--0063 BC-70 AD, Peer reviewed}, shortjournal = {CBQ}, sortkey = {Horowitz.W:1996_HalleysCometand}, timestamp ={2014-02-06}, } @Article{horowitz1996the360and3, author = {Horowitz, Wayne}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s notes #and# \cite{gent2004calendarsa} [Calendars]}, journal = {Journal of the Ancient Near Eastern Society of Columbia University}, title = {The 360 and 364 Day Year in Ancient Mesopotamia}, year = {1996}, volume = {24}, pages = {35--44}, issn = {0010-2016 ; 0897-6074}, url = {http://www.jtsa.edu/Scholars_and_Research/JANES.xml#h}, urldate = {2013-10-31}, abstract = {During the later portion of the Second Temple period in Israel, a 364 day calendar emerged to challenge the traditional lunar calendar with its regular year of 12 lunar months (approximately 354 days) and leap year of 13 lunar months (approximately 384 days).

The author shows that the Mesopotamian view of the universe was at once cohesive as well as discordant and deficient, while remaining fairly constant over more than 2,500 years. Horowitz first surveys the various sources for Mesopotamian cosmic geography, including various mythological and literary texts, as well as the famous “Babylonian Map of the World” and various astrological and astronomical texts. The universe was built by the gods in earliest times and was thought to be held together by cosmic bonds. Given this general notion, there is nevertheless significant variety in the inclusion or omission of various elements of the picture in texts of different genres and from different periods. In addition, the available evidence leaves a number of problems unsolved. What are the bounds of the universe? What is beyond the limits of the universe? In the second section of the book, Horowitz then discusses each of the various regions and their names in various locales and time periods, drawing on the disparate sources to show where there is coherence and where there is difference of perspective. In addition, he discusses all of the names for the different parts of the universe and examines the geographies of each region.

Instead, in cuneiform studies, the term refers to the earliest known group of cuneiform astronomical texts, dating from the late second millennium down to the Hellenistic period. The main intent of the Astrolabes is to name three stars (or constellations and planets) which rise in each month of the Babylonian lunar year thereby yielding a repertoire of 36 month-stars (3 stars12 months). For each month, there is one star for each of the three east – west stellar paths of the Mesopotamian Heavens – The Path of Enlil (the king of the gods) in the north; the Path of Anu (the king of heaven) along the celestial equator, and the southern Path of Ea (the king of the underworld ocean). This intent does not always match actual events in the sky over Mesopotamia as we can reconstruct it today, with some assignments of stars tomonths apparently reflecting theological rather than astronomical considerations. A case in point is the assignment of the star of the Babylonian king of the gods Marduk to the central Path of Anu at the very end of the year. Another problem is the use of planets as month-stars, although planets do not rise at the same time in each and every year. Hence, it is possible that the Astrolabes are meant to describe an ideal year, perhaps even the year of creation. The most comprehensive text in the Astrolabe group is the Berlin Astrolabe commonly known as Astrolabe B, which preserves four distinct sections: Section I, a menology in which 10 months of the year are assigned month-stars; section II, a star-catalogue listing 36 stars (12 stars for each of the Paths of Anu, Ea, and Enlil); section III, a list-Astrolabe naming 36 month-stars (1 star for each path per month) in which the repertoire of stars is slightly different from that of section II; and section IV, a list of 36 rising and setting stars in which stars of section III rise in their path in their assigned month, and then set six months later. Given that the 36 month-stars are expected to rise in their intended lunar month, the Astrolabes can be used as an aid to determine when to intercalate the lunar year on the basis of observations of the Moon and stars. Astronomical omens in series Enuma Anu Enlil extend these principles into the realm of astrology. Here, if the stars of the Astrolabes rise at their expected times the omens are good, but conversely, if they do not, the omens are bad. The remaining members of the Astrolabe group may be defined as those texts which duplicate and/or offer parallels to the four sections of Astrolabe B. Although Astrolabe B is among the earliest sources in the group, dating to ca. 1180 bce, there are two precursors to sections of Astrolabe B that may be as much as 150-200 years older. Numerous examples of the group survive throughout the first millennium bce, down into the Hellenistic period. Among these are two examples of fragmentary planispheres from the seventh century which offer diagrams of the set of 36 Astrolabe stars, with a numerical value assigned to each star that relates to the length of day and night over the months of the year. The Astrolabe omens noted above are also known from seventh century tablets. SEE ALSO: Astronomy, ancient Near East. References and Suggested Readings Casaburi, M.

This is compatible with the Long chronology for the Hammurapi dynasty (Ammisaduqa year 1 = 1702 BC). In addition, we find two alternative choices for the chronology of the Akkad dynasty (2381 BC to 2200 BC, or 2327 BC to 2146 BC). The first agrees exactly with the traditional Sollberger relative chronology, the other shortens the distance between the dynasties of Akkad and Ur (actually overlapping them), in accordance with the current historical consensus.

According to Parpola, the required ratio 2 : 3 between shortest and longest daylight is found in the texts I.NAM.GIS.HUR and MUL.APIN. This is not the case, however. B. L. van der Waerden, to whom Parpola refers, based his assumption of finding the ratio 2 : 3 in these texts on an explanation of the term uddazallu as “longest daylight” by F. X. Kugler, Sternkunde und Sterndienst in babel, Ergänzungen 89f. n. 1. Kugler’s translation was shown to be impossible by A. Sachs and 0. Neugebauer, JCS 10 (1956) 135 n. 4, who translated the word by “correction”. Therefore, the translation of the MUL.APIN passage in the edition by D. Pingree and myself is “correction” and cannot any more be adduced to find a ration of 2 : 3 for shortest and longest daylight. This ratio does occur in mathematical astronomical texts of the late Achaemenid and Seleucid periods, but not in Assyrian times. Furthermore, the ratio is even in these late texts never expressed using the number 40 (to 60) but by giving the actual length of day or night in the appropriate time measures. So there is no justification to combine Ea’s number 40 with the length of dayligth at winter solstice, and to change the order of the “paths” in MUL.APIN. Finally, I want to note that a simple reversing of the order of the “paths” of Anu and Enlil would not have “mitigated the effect of the precession of the equinoxes”, but instead would have produced more confusion. Precession anyway was never taken into account by Babylonian astronomers, not even in their latest and most evolved computations; we therefore can safely forget about it in Assyrian times, and avoid misleading those who cannot control the cuneiform sources.

Sachs; edited by Hermann Hunger}, abstract = {During the second half of the first millennium B.C. astronomical observations were carried out continuously in Babylonia. This remarkable scholary activity, unsurpassed in length by any scientific project in all of human history, yielded archives kept for reference and used for the production of predictive astronomical texts. While such archives probably existed in several cities, a significant number of tables has so far been found only in Babylon. These tablets are now in the British Museum. The volume published herewith contains the third part of datable astronomical diaries, which concern the years 164 to 61 B.C. This is the latest group of the diaries; all datable diaries (about 400) have now been published. Diaries usually cover half a year. They contain observations of the moon and planets in relation to fixed stars, first and last visibilities, stationary points etc. They also report eclipses of sun and moon and other phenomena in the sky. Apart from celestial observations, the diaries refer to the weather, the water level in the Euphrates river, and the prices of the most important commodities. They also contain, in the style of chronicles. remarkable events. In this way they provide important information on the history of Mesopotamia in these troubled times, when control of the country was wrested from the Seleucids by the Partians. In der Spätzeit der babylonischen Kultur, in der zweiten Hälfte des 1. Jahrtausends v. Chr., wurden über lange Zeit hin astronomische Beobachtungen gesammelt. Obwohl durch diese Beobachtungstätigkeit entstandene Archive wahrscheinlich in mehreren Städten existiert haben, wurden nur in Babylon Reste davon ausgegraben. Diese Tontafeln befinden sich heute im British Museum. Hiermit wird der 3. Band der Publikation dieser Texte vorgelegt. Es handelt sich um Aufzeichnungen von Beobachtungen aus den Jahren 164 bis 61 v. Chr. Dies ist die jüngste Gruppe der sogenannten astronomischen Tagebücher; damit sind alle datierbaren Texte dieser Art (etwa 400) veröffentlicht.\r\nDie einzelnen Tagebücher erstrecken sich meist über ein halbes Jahr. Sie enthalten Beobachtungen des Mondes und der Planeten in ihrer Bewegung zwischen den Fixsternen, Auf- und Untergänge der Planeten, Finsternisse von Sonne und Mond, und andere Vorkommnisse am Himmel. Es wird aber auch über das Wetter, den Wasserstand des Euphrat und die Preise der wichtigsten Handelsgüter berichtet. Schließlich werden auch besondere Ereignisse chronikartig festgehalten. Die Texte sind daher auch für die Geschichte Mesopotamiens in dieser Zeit, als die Oberherrschaft über das Land von den Seleukiden auf die Parther überging, von Bedeutung.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp} #and# Ossendrijver’s notes #and# \cite{gent2004mesopotami} [The Astronomical Diaries of Babylon]}, comment = {\cite{oelsner1999reviewhung,spek1997newevidenc,geller2003reviewhung}}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, shortmaintitle = {ADRT}, shortseries = {DÖAW phil.hist.

Every type of Sumerian or Akkadian text dealing with descriptive or mathematical astronomy, including many individual tablets are thoroughly dealt with. All aspects, such as the history of discovery, reconstruction, and interpretation come to the fore, accompanied by a full bibliography. At that the reader will find descriptions of astronomical contents, an explanation of their scientific meaning and the place a given genre or tablet has in the development of astronomy both within the Mesopotamian culture and outside of it. Because celestial omens are intimately related to astronomy in Mesopotamian science, these are also discussed extensively.

By far the largest part of these data are observations, in all likelihood excerpted from “Astronomical Diaries” of the kind published in vols. I to III. The first part of this volume deals with the moon. Most interesting are eclipse reports and tables of eclipses, both lunar and solar, which are arranged so that the periodic recurrence of eclipses can be seen. The eclipse texts are analysed in an Appendix by J. M. Steele. For the moon the volume further contains tables of intervals between the risings and settings of sun and moon, both around new moon and full moon; some of these intervals are computed, not observed. The second part of the book is concerned with observations of the planets. Many of these texts extend over many years. They too were used by the Babylonian astronomers to investigate periodically recurring phenomena in order to find ways to compute them in advance. Dieser Band enthält Zusammenstellungen von Daten für den Mond und die Planeten aus der Zeit vom 8. Jh. bis zum 1. Jh. v. Chr. Die überwiegende Mehrheit dieser Daten sind Beobachtungen, die vermutlich aus „Diaries“, wie sie in Band I bis III publiziert wurden, exzerpiert sind. Der erste Teil des Bandes betrifft den Mond. Unter diesen Texten gibt es einerseits Beobachtungsberichte über Finsternisse, andererseits systematische Tabellen von Finsternissen, die für die Darstellung der periodischen Wiederkehr dieser Ereignisse dienen. Die Finsternistexte werden von J. M. Steele in einem Anhang ausgewertet. Ferner sind Tafeln der Zeitintervalle zwischen Auf- und Untergang von Sonne und Mond um Neumond und um Vollmond erhalten; diese sind wenigstens zum Teil berechnet und nicht beobachtet. Die Beobachtungen der Planeten bilden den zweiten Teil des Bandes. Sie erstrecken sich oft über viele Jahre und sind wahrscheinlich ebenfalls Hilfsmittel für die Erforschung und Vorausberechnung von regelmäßig sich wiederholenden Phänomenen.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp} #and# Ossendrijver’s notes #and# \cite{gent2004mesopotami} [The Astronomical Diaries of Babylon]}, comment = {\cite{horowitz2004reviewhung,spek2005reviewhung,koch2004reviewhung,oelsner2003reviewhung}}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, shortmaintitle = {ADRT}, shortseries = {DÖAW phil.hist.

It is part of the corpus of texts published by Hermann Hunger in three volumes containing the dated astronomical diaries from Babylonia (Sachs & Hunger 1988; 1989; 1996). The document studied here was not included in the corpus since it previously could not be dated. Now, however, we are confident that we have established its date. The historical part of the tablet was studied, transliterated and translated in London in December 2005 by Van der Spek, with the help of Irving Finkel; the astronomical part has subsequently been the subject of a renewed study by Hunger. Following the convention of the edition of the diaries, this diary can be added to Volume I (1988) under No. -362.

By far the largest part of these data are observations, in all likelihood excerpted from “Astronomical Diaries” of the kind published in vols. I to III. Planetary phenomena occur after a certain number of years at almost the same calendar date within a Babylonian year; this period is different for each planet. In the so-called Goal-year texts, the phenomena of the planets are collected from a year which is by one period earlier than the year for which the text is intended. In this way, the calendar dates and positions of the planets’ phenomena can be predicted approximately. The texts were probably also used by the Babylonian astronomers to investigate periodically recurring phenomena in order to find ways to compute them in advance. Dieser Band enthält eine Edition von Tontafeln aus der Zeit vom 3. Jh. bis zum 1. Jh. v. Chr. mit Zusammenstellungen von Daten für den Mond und die Planeten. Die überwiegende Mehrheit dieser Daten sind Beobachtungen, die vermutlich aus „Diaries“, wie sie in Band I bis III publiziert wurden, exzerpiert sind. Eine Erscheinung eines Planeten, z. B. seine erste Sichtbarkeit nach der Konjunktion mit der Sonne, kehrt nach einer bestimmten Anzahl von Jahren an demselben oder fast demselben Datum im Kalenderjahr wieder. Diese Anzahl von Jahren kann man leicht herausfinden, wenn man Beobachtungen über Himmelserscheinungen wie die „Diaries“ besitzt; sie ist für jeden Planeten verschieden. Kennt man einmal die Anzahl der Jahre, nach der die Planetenphänomene periodisch am gleichen Datum wiederkehren, so kann man die „Diaries“ für Voraussagen benützen. Dazu stellen die „Goal Year Texts“ diejenigen Beobachtungen zusammen, die um eine ganze Periode früher als das Jahr liegen, für das der Text gelten soll. Diese Methode funktioniert als Voraussage ganz gut. Vermutlich haben die babylonischen Astronomen diese Texte auch als Material zur Konstruktion von Vorausberechnungen verwendet.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp}}, comment = {\cite{steele2007reviewhung}}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, shortmaintitle = {ADRT}, shortseries = {DÖAW phil.hist.

In this paper I propose to bring together evidence from a range of sources and argue that in ancient Mesopotamia the sky was thought to be a rotating sphere with a polar axis.}, bibmas = {1}, file = {huxley1997theshapeof.pdf:huxley1997theshapeof/huxley1997theshapeof.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, keywords = {KAR 307, BM 92687, VAT 9428, BM 38369, TCL 6 13}, location = {London}, pagetotal = {10}, publisher = {Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland}, shortjournal = {JRAS}, sortkey = {Huxley.M:1997_ShapeCosmosAccording}, sorttitle = {Shape of the Cosmos According to Cuneiform Sources, The}, timestamp ={2013-11-01}, } @Collection{imhausen2010writingsof, editor = {Imhausen, Annette and Pommerening, Tanja}, title = {Writings of Early Scholars in the Ancient Near East, Egypt, Rome and Greece}, year = {2010}, date = {2010-11-16}, subtitle = {Translating Ancient Scientific Texts}, maintitle = {Writings of Early Scholars in the Ancient Near East, Egypt, Rome and Greece}, volume = {1}, edition = {1}, series = {Beiträge zur Altertumskunde}, number = {286}, publisher = {De Gruyter}, isbn = {978-3110229929 ; 3110229927}, doi = {10.1515/9783110229936}, urldate = {2017-06-02}, _month = {11}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{ossendrijver2012babylonian}}, contents = {Book ToC: \url{http://www.degruyter.com/view/product/44483}}, file = {imhausen2010writingsof.pdf:imhausen2010writingsof/imhausen2010writingsof.pdf:PDF}, month = nov, sortkey = {Imhausen.A:2010_WritingsEarlyScholars}, timestamp = {2015}, } @Article{iwaniszewski1993observatio, author = {Stanisław Iwaniszewski}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp}}, journal = {Astronomie et Sciences Humaines}, title = {Observations sur l’iconographie des kudurrus cassites en Mesopotamie}, year = {1993}, journalsubtitle = {Publication de l’Observatoire de Strasbourg}, volume = {8}, pages = {71--100}, issn = {0989-6236}, url = {http://ethnologie.unistra.fr/publications/astronomie-et-sciences-humaines/}, urldate = {2014-02-14}, abstract = {L’étude des kudurrus, c’est-à-dire des pierres de bornage, repose sur une longue tradition et reflète différentes tendances en assyriologie. Des analyses philologiques furent entreprises au début du siècle par Scheil (1900-1908) et King (1912). Ces études philologiques furent suivies par les études des représentations symboliques placées sur les kudurrus (Frank 1906, Zimmern 1906). Puis on vit bientôt apparaître plusieurs tentatives de décryptage de leurs significations astronomiques ou zodiacales (Hinke 1907 et Hommel cité par Seid11989,17), études caractéristiques des tendances de l’époque. Tout ceci fut suivi par Steinmetzer (1922) qui se concentra sur la signification légale et administrative des kudurrus. Après cela on a vu tomber le nombre d’études sur les kudurrus. A part la tentative isolée de Watelin (1953) pour expliquer le sens ésotérique des symboles divins, les années suivantes n’apportèrent qu’une étude innovatrice et monumentale, celle de SeidI (1968,1989) qui se concentra sur le développement d’une forme idéale standardisée des pierres de bornage. En 1978 à partir des stèles publiées par Seidl (1968) et en leur appliquant un traitement systématique, j’ai mis au point un modèle de description du ou des processus qui ont contribué à la formation de ces monuments tels que nous les connaissons (Iwaniszewski 1978).

A great part of this research focused on Assyrian and Babylonian mathematical astronomy as well as on the origins of scientific astronomy (sensu Aaboe). A number of cuneiform texts dealing with observational astronomy and celestial divination have also been investigated, especially in recent times. The analytical method employed so far has been that of the history of astronomy. Although celestial divination has been studied in a wider cultural context, archaeoastronomy is not a recognized field of study in Assyriology. Every contribution in the field of the Mesopotamian archaeoastronomy is to be highly appreciated, especially when it brings some significant discoveries. Such was the case with Hartner’s analysis of Sumerian constellations about 4000 B.C. However, in investigations that combine written and non-written evidence one needs much more than a superficial knowledge ofthe culture under study. Familiarity with general cultural patterns as well as with the specific tendencies of particular epochs and at least a rudimentary knowledge of cuneiform texts and ancient languages is indispensable. The results drawn from archaeoastronomical analysis should be compatible with what may be read in texts. In cases where they disagree, differences should be carefully examined and recognized.

This volume offers new perspectives on the development and transmission of technical compilations, looking especially at the relationship between empirical knowledge and textual transmission in early scientific thinking. The eleven contributions to the volume derive from a panel held at the American Oriental Society in 2013 and cover more than three millennia of historical development, ranging from Babylonian medicine and astronomy to the persistence of Mesopotamian lore in Syriac and Arabic meditations on the properties of animals. The volume also includes major contributions on the history of Mesopotamian “rationality,” epistemic labels for tested and tried remedies, and the development of depersonalized case histories in Babylonian therapeutic compendia. Together, these studies offer an overview of several important moments in the development of non-Western scientific thinking and a significant contribution to our understanding of how traditions of technical knowledge were produced and transmitted in the ancient world.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\url{http://amor.cms.hu-berlin.de/~ossendrm/cuneiform.html}}, file = {johnson2015inthewakeo.epub:johnson2015inthewakeo/johnson2015inthewakeo.epub:ePUB;johnson2015inthewakeo.pdf:johnson2015inthewakeo/johnson2015inthewakeo.pdf:PDF}, sortkey = {Johnson.J:2015_IntheWakeoftheCompendia}, timestamp = {2016-03-18}, } @Article{jones1908theancient, author = {Jones, F.

describe the observational practices behind a large and homogeneous body of Babylonian observation reports involving planets and certain bright stars near the ecliptic (“Normal Stars”). The reports in question are the only precise positional observations of planets in the Babylonian texts, and while we do not know their original purpose, they may have had a part in the development of predictive models for planetary phenomena in the second half of the first millennium B.C. The paper is organized according to the following topics: (I) Sections 1-3 review the format of the observations and the texts in which they are found; (II) Sections 4-6 discuss the composition of the Normal Star list; (III) Sections 7-8 concern the orientation of the reported celestial directions from star to planet; (IV) Sect. 9 concerns the relationship between the reported distances and the actual angular distances between planet and star; and (V) Sect. 10 discusses the reports of planetary stations, which are the most common reports giving precise locations of planets when they are not near their closest approach to stars, and draws some brief general conclusions about the utility of the Babylonian observations for estimating planetary longitudes and calibrating models in antiquity.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s notes #and# \cite{gent2004fixedstars} [Stars and Constellations]}, file = {jones2004astudyofba.pdf:jones2004astudyofba/jones2004astudyofba.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, keywords = {BM 46083, BM 36609, SpTU 5.268, H 52 = BM 41222, HSM 1490, BM 76738 + BM 76813, SpTU 4.171, H 54 = BM 36823, BM 33066 = 78-11-7.4 = Strm Camb 400 = LBAT 1477, SpTU 5.268, H 56 = BM 32299 + BM 42083 + BM 45674, H 58 = BM 32209, H 63 = AO 17630, H 82 = IM 44152, A 3456}, location = {New York and Berlin and Heidelberg}, publisher = {Springer Science}, shortjournal = {AHES}, sortkey = {Jones.A:2004_StudyBabylonianObservations}, sorttitle = {Study of Babylonian Observations of Planets Near Normal Stars, A}, timestamp={2014-05-02}, } @Article{jones2004thelegacyo, author = {Jones, Alexander}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp} #and# Ossendrijver’s notes #and# \url{http://www.worldcat.org/title/bulletin-canadian-society-for-mesopotamian-studies-39/oclc/694833211}}, journal = {Bulletin of the Society for Mesopotamian Studies}, title = {The Legacy of Ancient Near Eastern Astronomy}, year = {2004}, number = {39}, pages = {15--20}, issn = {0844-3416}, bibmas = {1}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals}, keibi = {63:557}, location = {Toronto}, pagetotal = {61}, publisher = {Canadian Society for Mesopotamian Studies}, shortjournal = {BSMS}, sortkey = {Jones.A:2004_LegacyAncientNear}, sorttitle = {Legacy of Ancient Near Eastern Astronomy, The}, timestamp ={2013-11-01}, } @Incollection{jones2007astrologer, author = {Jones, Alexander}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s collection #and# \url{http://www.aihs-iahs.org/en/system/files/jones_alexander_raymond.pdf} and \url{http://webs.wichita.edu/aloftus/TofC.pdf}}, booktitle = {Oxyrhynchus: A City and its Texts}, editor = {Bowman, Alan K. and Coles, R.

Much of its content will be well known to specialists in ancient astronomy and astrology, but this is the first broad treatment of the topic. The roughly 1200-year evolution of astrological practice surveyed in this chapter is characterized by several shifts. First, interpretation of direct observations of the heavens was progressively supplanted by reliance on predicted astronomical data. Second, prediction based on the principle that astronomical phenomena observed in the past would approximately repeat after certain time intervals (called recurrence periods) gave way to mathematical models that had a more remote derivation from observations. Finally, astrologers became increasingly removed from the production of the astronomical information they used and increasingly dependent on published almanacs comprising precomputed data.

Al in het 2e millennium voor Chr. (meer dan 3000 jaar geleden) werd in Babylon de sterrenhemel dagelijks nauwkeurig waargenomen om daar de “wil der goden” af te lezen en op grond daarvan de koning te adviseren in tijden van oorlog en vrede. Wij hebben een tamelijk goed beeld van de Babylonische cultuur en van hun sterrenkunde omdat veel ervan in spijkerschrift op kleitabletten is vastgelegd, die later in groten getale onder het woestijnzand vandaan gekomen zijn. Niet alleen deden de Babyloniërs nauwkeurige waarnemingen van de sterren en de planeten maar ook waren zij vanaf ongeveer 500 voor Chr. in staat op grond van ingenieuze rekenmethoden vrij precies de posities van de maan en de planeten tientallen jaren vooruit te berekenen. De Babyloniërs waren echte rekenmeesters die, dankzij hun 60-tallig rekenstelsel en de door hen uitgevonden “plaats-waarde” notatie, heel grote berekeningen met zeer grote nauwkeurigheid konden uitvoeren. De sterrenhemel speelde in Babylonië een belangrijke rol in het dagelijks leven, bijvoorbeeld bij de landbouw en bij het vaststellen van de kalender. Onze verdeling van de cirkel in 360 graden en onze verdeling van uren in minuten vindt zijn oorsprong in Babylonië. Een groot aantal van de ons bekende sterrenbeelden, met name die van de dierenriem, zijn van de Babyloniërs afkomstig en vervolgens via de Griekse cultuur aan ons doorgegeven. De beroemde Griekse astronoom Ptolemaeus (ca. 100 na Chr.) gebruikte oude Babylonische waarnemingen van o.a. zons- en maans-verduisteringen om de parameters van zijn planetentheorie te bepalen.

A much debated anchor point for this chronology is provided by a series of observed dates of the first appearance and the disappearance of the planet Venus during the reign of the Babylonian king Ammisaduqa. The Venus observations allow four different chronologies: Ammisaduqa year 1 = 1702 B.C. (the Long Chronology), 1646 and 1638 B.C. (the High and Low Middle Chronologies), and 1582 B.C. (the Short Chronology). In this paper we reanalyse the Venus observations using a physical model of the visibility of Venus in a twilight atmosphere. Although there are small differences between the quality of fit for the four different chronologies, the results do not allow us to make a decisive choice. This is reflected in the average visual extinction in the atmosphere of Babylon which varies from 0.25 ± 0.07 to 0.28 ± 0.11 magnitudes per airmass for the four different Venus chronologies. These extinction values are identical (within the standard deviations) to those found in earlier studies based on first and last appearances of stars and planets in Babylon in the 13th and 7th century B.C. The analysis further shows that there is a cluster of observations with enhanced extinction values in the 12th and 13th years of the reign of Ammisaduqa. These observations were discarded in previous studies as corrupted by scribal errors. In this paper we attribute these enhanced extinction values to the eruption of the volcano on the Greek island Thera (present-day Santorini). From the magnitude of the excess extinction we find that about 45 Megatons of aerosols were ejected into the Earth stratosphere in the eruption, and that the strength of the eruption was comparable to that of Krakatau (Indonesia, 1883). The Santorini eruption serves as an important calibration point for the Aegean Late Bronze Age chronology (1700-1400 B.C.). By connecting the chronologies of the ancient Near East and of the Aegean Late Bronze Age in this way, we are able to show that there are two possibilities: (i) the eruption occurred in 1628/1627 B.C., consistent with the radiocarbon dating window of the eruption, supporting the Low Middle Chronology of the ancient Near East (Ammisaduqa 1 = 1638 B.C.), or (ii) the eruption occurred in 1692/1691 B.C. when we adopt the Long Chronology of the ancient Near East (Ammisaduqa 1 = 1702 B.C.) based on the Old Babylonian month length calibration.}, bibmas = {1}, file = {jong2010anewlookat.pdf:jong2010anewlookat/jong2010anewlookat.pdf:PDF}, institution = {Astronomical Institute Anton Pannekoek (IAP)}, language = {english}, shortjournal = {JEOL}, sortkey = {Jong.T:2010_NewLookat}, sortname = {Jong, Teije}, sorttitle = {New Look at the Venus Observations of Ammisaduqa}, timestamp={2015-06-04}, } @Article{jong2011inmemoriam, author = {de Jong, Teije}, bibmas_src = {\url{http://www.uva.nl/en/about-the-uva/organisation/staff-members/content/j/o/t.dejong/t.de-jong.html}}, journal = {Aestimatio}, title = {In Memoriam John Phillips Britton}, year = {2011}, volume = {7}, pages = {250--257}, issn = {15494470}, url = {http://www.ircps.org/sites/ircps.org/files/aestimatio/7/2010-18_deJongBW.pdf}, bibmas = {1}, file = {jong2011inmemoriam.pdf:jong2011inmemoriam/jong2011inmemoriam.pdf:PDF}, location = {Princeton}, publisher = {Institute for Research in Classical Philosophy and Science}, sortkey = {Jong.T:2011_InMemoriamJohn}, sortname = {Jong, Teije}, timestamp={2015-06-04}, } @Article{jong2012babylonian, author = {de Jong, Teije}, bibmas_src = {\url{https://uva.academia.edu/TeijedeJong}}, journal = {Journal for the History of Astronomy}, title = {Babylonian Observations of Venus}, year = {2012}, subtitle = {Arcus Visionis, Atmospheric Extinction and Observational Practice}, volume = {43}, number = {4}, month = nov, pages = {391--410}, issn = {0021-8286}, url = {http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/shp/jhast/2012/00000043/00000004/art00002}, _month = {11}, abstract = {The article discusses ancient Babylonian astronomical observations of Venus made during the second half of the fist millennium BCE when the planet appeared in the sky as either a morning or evening star.

While at that time the field of Babylonian mathematical astronomy had been created, it needed Neugebauer to develop it into a well-established discipline in the history of science. This he accomplished almost single-handedly by systematically analyzing all texts available to him at the time in great depth and detail, eventually resulting in the publication of his magnum opus Astronomical Cuneiform Texts (Neugebauer 1955; here often referred to as ACT).

It thus reviews an enormous and growing body of literature on the cultures of the ancient Mediterranean, the Far East, and the New World, particularly Mesoamerica, putting the ancient astronomical materials into their archaeological and cultural contexts. The book consists of two parts. The first emphasizes naked-eye astronomy: the motion of objects in the sky, the determination of time and calendars, corrections due to various factors such as parallax or atmospheric diffraction, and rare or transient phenomena such as eclipses, aurorae and comets. The second part begins with a discussion of the Paleolithic and Neolithic roots of astronomy. It then turns to the antecedents of the modern Western Astronomy: Mesopotamia, Greece, ancient and mediaeval Europe. Separate chapters deal with astronomy in ancient Egypt and Africa; India; China, Korea and Japan; the cultures of the Pacific; and the Americas, with particular emphasis on Mesoamerica, since this is one of the few areas for which written evidence is linked to astronomical alignments. Throughout, the discussion emphasizes the main purposes of ancient astronomy, many of which it shares with modern astronomy: astrology, navigation, calendar regulation, and understanding of our place and role in the universe. Exploring Ancient Skies provides a comprehensive review and reference for scholars and students in both astronomy and archaeology.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {Walker’s notes}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, lccn = {2001032842}, sortkey = {Kelley.D:2005_ExploringAncientSkies}, timestamp={2014-04-24}, } @InBook{kelley2005reviewtuma, author = {Kelley, David H. and Aveni, A.F. and Milone, Eugene F.}, title = {Astronomy and Boundary-Stone Markers}, booktitle = {Exploring Ancient Skies}, year = {2005}, date = {2005-12-06}, subtitle = {An Encyclopedic Survey of Archaeoastronomy}, publisher = {Springer Science}, location = {New York and Berlin and Heidelberg}, isbn = {038726356X ; 9780387263564}, chapter = {7.1.3.3.}, pages = {227--228}, url = {http://books.google.de/books?id=cgEJu3iUwM0C}, urldate = {2014-04-24}, _reviewof = {\cite{tuman1987rediscover}}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {Walker’s notes}, cross_ref = {kelley2005exploring}, file = {kelley2005reviewtuma.pdf:kelley2005reviewtuma/kelley2005reviewtuma.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45}, lccn = {2001032842}, related = {tuman1987rediscover}, relatedtype = {reviewof}, sortkey = {Kelley.D:2005_AstronomyandBoundary}, timestamp={2014-04-24}, } @Review{kennedy1964reviewstah, author = {Kennedy, E.

This reduces the period that has to be assigned to Hammurabi by several hundred years. He is now supposed to belong to the twentieth century B.C.

Rochberg macht für die Behandlung der Lunareklipsen-Omina der Tafeln EAE 15 — 22 zwei Voraussetzungen: 1) Jede der drei in den Omina ausgewiesenen Nachtwachen hatte vier Stunden Dauer. 2) Das antike Mesopotamien kannte und berücksichtigte die Halbschattenverfinsterungen des Mondes. Keine der Voraussetzungen ist durch die Überlieferung gedeckt. Die Lunareklipsen-Omina setzten die nach Jahreszeit gleitende Nachtwachendauer voraus, die Halbschattenverfinsterungen des Mondes spielten, wie die “Astronomical Diaries” belegen, keine Rolle. So ist bei der Interpretation der Lunareklipsen-Omina immer nur von den Kernschattenfinsternissen des Mondes und deren maximaler Dauer von 3.8 Std. auszugehen. Von da her bestimmt sich dann auch die Bedeutung des Terms ustänih in den Omina der Tafel EAE 19 neu. Weil es da nämlich um Zeitabläufe bis über 10 Std. ging, meinte ustänih nicht Dauer einer Finsternis (so Rochberg), sondern Verzug, Sich-Hinziehen, etwa vom erwarteten zum wirklichen Finsternisbeginn bzw. -verlauf, u. s. w.

Darüber hinaus fand sich in den “Diaries” noch ein weiterer Fachbegriff zur babylonischen Nacht: SAG GE6 “Beginn der Nacht”. Was freilich damit bezeichnet, darunter verstanden wurde, ist noch immer ungeklärt. Wohl ist unbestritten, daß neben meteorologischen Erscheinungen vor allem Mondbeobachtungen eine wichtige Rolle spielten; aber “the duration of this interval is unclear”.

Recorded date; Conversion of the date to the Gregorian calendar equivalent; Prediction made. Full Text: This horoscope was published by Abraham Sachs, 1 and was republished by Francesca Rochberg in her Babylonian horoscopes.2 The date is recorded as: Year 48 (of the Seleucid Era), Addar (month), night of (23rd). With the computer program BABYLONIA3 I converted this date to the Gregorian equivalent, 03 April sunset - 04 April sunrise, -262. Sachs suggests that the city of Uruk may have been the place of origin of the tablet, and so I used the coordinates of Uruk (31 °l8’N, 45°39’E, time zone 3 hours east) in my calculations. The striking thing about this horoscope is that it is the only one with a clearly timed prognosis: Line 6 reverse of the tablet reads, “The 36th year will have wealth.” Presumably this refers to the 36th year of his life. How did they come to the conclusion that the native would have wealth in this particular year? Although parallels are lacking, I believe the answer is that on this man’s 36th birthday, 23rd of Addar, year 84 of the Seleucid Era, Venus rose in her Morning First heliacal phase. 4 This corresponds to 27 March, -226.

If this is correct, the date of identification can be used as a reference point for the determination of the earliest probable limit for the epoch when in Mesopotamia the process of constellation recognition have been started. The earliest known images with the symbol of Inanna date from the period of archaic Uruk. They can be divided into two groups: (1) the images on seals and ceramics where there are no astral attributes; (2) the pictographic texts where the picture of a star and the signs of a sunrise or a sunset are placed alongside the symbol of Inanna. The pictographic texts, however, admit also a non-astral interpretation, if the picture of a star is a determinative of a deity. The astral nature of Inanna for the Uruk period therefore cannot be considered as finally proved.

Militarev), and recently revised, updated and corrected in most part by a historian of the Mesopotamian astronomy (G. Kurtik). The present paper analyzes Sumerian and Akkadian (Babylonian) names of 34 celestial bodies, and their equivalents in other Semitic languages (Arabic, Hebrew, Syrian Aramaic, and Ge’ez, or ancient Ethiopian) and in Greek and Latin. Its main goal is to demonstrate the importance of Sumerian and Babylonian celestial body names as a source of corresponding terms in other cultures, up to the conventional inventory of modern astronomy, and to reveal four strategies by which other cultures drew ideas for name-giving from the treasury of Mesopotamia’s lexicon of celestial bodies. Whereas one of these strategies -- echoing, or full translation, of a Sumero-Akkadian term -- is axiomatic, the other three -- shift of meaning or interpretation of a Sumero-Akkadian term; lexical, or material borrowing; and, especially, folk etymology, or misinterpretation -- are understudied and practically unnoticed. The authors do not focus on such complicated matters as a historical background of Mesopotamian influence, direct or indirect, on Greek culture; a direction and routes of inter-borrowing between different speaking areas other than Akkadian and their contacts with the Greek world; a chronology of all kinds of cultural contacts and influences; probable connections between the early pre-Islamic Arabic and Babylonian traditions; or the problem of identification of Mesopotamian constellation and stars. However, the data presented may give a certain impulse to further investigation of these matters, while feasible etymologies and relations established between names can even throw some light upon debatable identification cases.}, altauthor = {Куртик, Геннадий Евсеевич and Милитарёв, Александр Юрьевич}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp}}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals}, institution = {University of Wales Trinity Saint David}, sortkey = {Kurtik.G:2005_Oncemoreorigin}, sorttitle = {001 more on the origin of Semetic and Greek star names}, timestamp = {2014-02-19}, } @Book{kurtik2007zvezdnoene, author = {Kurtik, Gennadiy Yevseyevich}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp} #and# \url{http://ihst.ru/content/kurtik}}, title = {Zvezdnoe nebo drevnej Mesopotamii}, year = {2007}, subtitle = {Šumero-akkadskie nazvanija sozvezdij i drugich svetil}, publisher = {Aleteyya}, isbn = {978-5-903354-36-8}, pagetotal = {744}, language = {russian}, location = {Sankt-Peterburg}, abstract = {Nastoyashcheye izdaniye predstavlyayet soboy issledovaniye po istorii zvezdnoy astronomii, astral’noy religii i astrologii Drevney Mesopotamii.

Walker in F.R. Stephenson and C.B.F. Walker, eds., Halley’s Comet in History (London, 1985) p. 16, gave the meaning of this name of the planet Mars as “unknown”. E. Reiner in her Astral Magic in Babylonia (Transactions of the American Philosophical Society, 85/4, Philadelphia, 1995) p. 7, is more emphatic: “His (Mars’) Akkadian name, Salbatanu, has no known meaning or etymology.” However, a proposal can be made. The planet Mars was the star of the god Nergal, see E. von Weiher, Der babylonische Gott Nergal (AOAT 11, Kevelaer, 1971) pp. 76ff. One of Nergal’s names was dlugal-gisasal = [be-el a]r-BE (An= Anum VI 72, see RLA VII 115-6). There is a problem about the exact form since there are writings with -sar-bi and -sar-bi, suggesting -sar-be, but the name of the goddess distar-sar-BE is proved to be -sar-bat by the variant from Ras Shamra sa-ar-be-ti (MSL XI 30 18 cf. 49 58). This detail, however, need not detain us. In a late god list, CT 25 35 rev. 20 = 36 rev. 26: dsar-bu-u = dbel-sar-BE, the adjective sarbu is used for the god, and this prepares us to take salbatanu as a variant of sarbatanu, by interchange of r and l. The ending -anu can be adjectival, as commonly in the other Semitic languages (C. Brockelmann, Grundriss I p. 392f.), though not so commonly in Akkadian, but note nabalkattanu “rebel” and nullatanu “slanderer” (W. von Soden, GAG3, 1995, p. 86). Only two explicit writings of the name have so far been quoted: mul-sa-al-ba-ta-nu in a late Old Babylonian or early Cassite omen text (RA 65, 1971, 72 62), and an unpublished Ras Shamra tablet, RS 23 38* rev. 13, cited by Nougayrol in RA 65 (1971) 82 on 16. However, the Greek lexicographer Hesychius cites Σελέβατος [the MSS give Βελέβατος, but that is corrupt: the uncial Greek B and L. having been interchanged] Ο του πυρος αστηρ Βαβυλωνιοι “Selebatos: the fiery star: the Babylonians,” which looks like a descendant of Salbatanu, and reflects the Babylonian alternative name Makru “red”, explained in a commentary as “likeness of fire” (tam-sil dGIS.BAR: see CAD makru).

It is shown that the Rickman and Froeschle (1982) models for the nongravitational forces on Comet Halley may be more accurate than the model of Delsemme (1982). Results are given for discrete solutions for the nongravitational forces at different parts of the orbit to improve the models through determination of quantities such as lag angle at different distances and orientation of the spin axis. It is suggested that the nongravitational forces on the comet increase by about 0.5 percent per revolution. The perihelion time in 837 AD is calculated precisely from that of earlier apparitions, and an integration of the motion of the comet for 467 BC to 2580 AD is presented.}, adsnote = {Provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System}, adsurl = {http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1986A%26A...163..246L}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004cometsmete} [Ancient Observations and Orbital Motion of Comet 1P/Halley]}, file = {landgraf1986onthemotio.pdf:landgraf1986onthemotio/landgraf1986onthemotio.pdf:PDF}, shortjournal = {AAP}, sortkey = {Landgraf.W:1986_MotionCometHalley}, sorttitle = {Motion of Comet Halley, On the}, timestamp = {2015-04-22}, } @Book{landsberger1915derkultisc, author = {Landsberger, Benno}, title = {Der kultische Kalender der Babylonier und Assyrer}, year = {1915}, subtitle = {Die Altbabylonischen Lokalkalender}, part = {1}, series = {Leipziger semitische Studien}, number = {6}, publisher = {Hinrichs’sche Buchhandlung}, location = {Leipzig}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004calendarsa} [Festivals \& Cult]}, comment = {\cite{langdon1918reviewland}}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, origlocation = {Leipzig}, origpages = {1--91}, origtype = {phdthesis}, sortkey = {Landsberger.B:1915_kultischeKalender}, sorttitle = {kultische Kalender der Babylonier und Assyrer, Der}, timestamp = {2014-04-16}, } @Article{landsberger1923einastralm, author = {Landsberger, Benno}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp} #and# \cite{gent2004astralmyth} [Astral Mythology]}, journal = {Archiv für Keilschriftforschung}, title = {Ein astralmythologischer Kommentar aus der Spätzeit babylonischer Gelehrsamkeit}, year = {1923}, volume = {1}, pages = {43--48 [69--82]}, issn = {21947449}, url = {http://www.jstor.org/stable/41552208}, urldate = {2013-09-06}, bibmas = {1}, copyright = {Copyright © 1923 Archiv für Orientforschung (AfO)/Institut für Orientalistik}, file = {landsberger1923einastralm.pdf:landsberger1923einastralm/landsberger1923einastralm.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, jstor_formatteddate = {1923}, keywords = {BM 55466, BM 55486, BM 55627, STC 2.211 + STC 2.212 + STC 2.213 + STC 2.214}, language = {english}, location = {Vienna}, publisher = {Archiv für Orientforschung (AfO)/Institut für Orientalistik}, shortjournal = {AfK}, sortkey = {Landsberger.B:1923_astralmythologischerKommentar}, sorttitle = {astralmythologischer Kommentar aus der Spaetzeit babylonischer Gelehrsamkeit, Ein}, timestamp ={2013-09-06}, walker_note = {BM 55466+55486+55627; also King, STC I 211-4 and Langdon, Menologies 12}, } @SuppPeriodical{landsberger1933bemerkunge, author = {Landsberger, Benno}, title = {3.

The answer was, “If Croesus had made an expedition against the Persians, he would have destroyed a great empire.” Croesus interpreted this as a favorable oracle and attacked the Persians but was eventually defeated and taken prisoner by Cyrus. When Croesus questioned the Delphian god about this oracle that had gone wrong, the oracle replied that Croesus had not understood the oracle because he failed to ask what empire the god meant. Lanfranchi’s discussion involves the kinds of interpretation indulged in by Babylonian astrologers to decide whether a particular omen was relevant for the king or an enemy and speculation on whether Herodotus may have known of the system of interpreting Mesopotamian omens.

The first A-Z resource to catalog the achievements and legacy of more than four millennia of scientific thought in the ancient world of the Mediterranean and the Near East, providing a complete overview of the physical, chemical, life, medical, and social sciences of the classical world. Many are familiar with such wonders as steam power and the discovery that the planets revolve around the Sun. The fact that such phenomena were known to the ancient Greeks more than 2,000 years ago is less well known. Now, Science in the Ancient World fills this gap by covering all the major scientific developments during 4,000 years of ancient history. Over 200 A-Z entries explore the origins of science, from astronomy and mathematics to medicine and chemistry. Giants like Aristotle and Plato are examined, together with more obscure figures like Nearchus, explorer of the Indian Ocean, and Hero, discoverer of steam power. Emphasis is placed on the diversity of ancient science, from the achievements of the Mesopotamians to the science of the Romans. The philosophies behind ancient science are explored, from the Epicurean pursuit of happiness to the asceticism of the Stoics. This comprehensive survey brings to the modern reader a long lost age of scientific discovery. Features – A complete bibliography of primary source documents, secondary source biographies, and critical analyses -50 illustrations including maps, portraits of the key scientific figures, and depictions of scientific instruments and phenomena Highlights - Reviews developments in a broad range of scientific disciplines and charts the interaction between science, religion, and philosophy - Brings to life the scientific controversies of the ancient world and rescues important ideas from relative obscurity – Includes vivid portraits of the key centers of scientific endeavor in the ancient world}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{steele2013theastrono}}, file = {lawson2004scienceina.pdf:lawson2004scienceina/lawson2004scienceina.pdf:PDF}, opturl = {http://www.bibotu.com/books/2013/History%20and%20Philosophy%20of%20Science/Science%20in%20the%20Ancient%20World%20An%20Encyclopedia%20(ABC-CLIO%202004).pdf}, sortkey = {Lawson.R:2004_ScienceinAncient}, timestamp = {2015-06-19}, } @Book{layard1849ninevehan1, author = {Layard, Austen Henry}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004planetarym} [Babylonian “Telescopes” and the Phases of Venus and Mars]}, title = {Nineveh and its Remains, 1}, year = {1849}, subtitle = {With an Account of a Visit to the Chaldaean Christians of Kurdistan, and the Yezidis, or the Devil-Worshippers, and an Inquiry into the Manners and Arts of the Ancient Assyrians}, maintitle = {Nineveh and its Remains}, volume = {1}, edition = {2}, publisher = {John Murray}, url = {http://books.google.com/books?id=13-xbVfqDtcC&hl=de&source=gbs_navlinks_s}, urldate = {2014-04-24}, location = {London}, volumes = {2}, bibmas = {1}, cross_ref = {layard1849ninevehand}, file = {layard1849ninevehan1.pdf:layard1849ninevehan1/layard1849ninevehan1.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, lccn = {05010140}, sortkey = {Layard.A:1849_Ninevehandits}, timestamp={2014-04-24}, } @Book{layard1849ninevehan2, author = {Layard, Austen Henry}, title = {Nineveh and its Remains, 2}, year = {1849}, subtitle = {With an Account of a Visit to the Chaldaean Christians of Kurdistan, and the Yezidis, or the Devil-Worshippers, and an Inquiry into the Manners and Arts of the Ancient Assyrians}, maintitle = {Nineveh and its Remains}, volume = {2}, edition = {2}, volumes = {2}, publisher = {John Murray}, location = {London}, url = {http://books.google.com/books?id=llVFb6qLmsgC&printsec=frontcover&hl=de#v=onepage&q&f=false}, urldate = {2014-04-24}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004planetarym} [Babylonian “Telescopes” and the Phases of Venus and Mars]}, cross_ref = {layard1849ninevehand}, file = {layard1849ninevehan2.pdf:layard1849ninevehan2/layard1849ninevehan2.pdf:PDF}, gent_note = {[p. 356 ?!?

such as stellar phases, weather, hebdomadal cycles, lunar cycles, and more. I argue that these texts are primarily astrological rather than astronomical or calendrical. I trace the possible connection between parapegmata and calendrical cycles in Greece, Rome, and Babylon, but I maintain a sharp distinction between calendars and parapegmata: the parapegmata were not used for chronological purposes, but rather for the regulation of various activities, most prominently agriculture. Different types of parapegmata were used by the Greeks and Romans for tracking stellar and lunar phenomena, and these distinct phenomena were used by them as signs for the timing of various activities, partly in an attempt to align their actions with sympathetic forces in the Cosmos. In order to understand how the parapegmata were used, I devote a chapter to unraveling the modes of predictive signification in the parapegmata, showing how these texts and instruments eliminated the need for astronomical observation. I show that some similar astronomical phenomena were tracked by the Babylonians and Egyptians for similar purposes, although the parallels we find in these cultures show a much closer connection to other, more diverse types of omina than the classical texts do.

It looks at a set of popular instruments and texts (parapegmata) used in antiquity for astronomical weather prediction and the regulation of day-to-day life. Farmers, doctors, sailors and others needed to know when the heavens were conducive to various activities, and they developed a set of fairly sophisticated tools and texts for tracking temporal, astronomical and weather cycles. Sources are presented in full, with an accompanying translation. A comprehensive analysis explores questions such as: What methodologies were used in developing the science of astrometeorology?

L. van der Waerden nous a donné un livie qui paraît remarquable : Anfänge der Astronomie, Erwachende Wissenschaft II (Noordhoff, Groningen, s.d.). On lui saura gré d’avoir communiqué au public cultivé les résultats qu’ont obtenu les chercheurs dans un domaine très important, mais d’accès difficile. Les documents cunéiformes qui touchent à ces questions sont horriblement compliqués. En outre, l’astronomie “chaldéenne” était fondée sur l’arithmétique, à la différence de l’astronomie grecque plutôt géométrique. Aussi les données fournies par les savants mésopotamiens ne livrent-elles leurs secrets qu’à de bons mathématiciens. C’est dire que le lecteur profane ne se sent pas très à l’aise devant de nombreuses pages de ce livre; néanmoins de larges parties de l’exposé restent claiies, se lisent même agréablement et, surtout, avec le plus grand profit. L’ouvrage est presque entièrement réservé à l’astronomie babylonienne pour deux raisons. D’abord elle est mieux connue: attestée avec certitude dès l’époque de la 1re dynastie de Babylone, elle était bien représentée aussi dans la fameuse bibliothèque d’Assuibanipal; elle a atteint un développement remarquable sous les Séleucides ; à ce moment, des observations et des calculs relatifs à la lune et aux planètes furent consignés sur les tablettes. D’autre part, B. van der Waerden explique que, dès ses débuts, elle contenait les éléments d’une évolution et d’un progrès, tandis que l’astronomie égyptienne, peut-être plus ancienne, est arrivée très tôt à un palier qu’elle n’a pas pu dépasser. Il n’est pas possible de détailler ici les aperçus fort intéressants que l’on trouve dans cet ouvrage. Qu’il suffise de signaler le chapitre consacré à l’influence de l’astronomie babylonienne sur celles des autres peuples anciens, et en particulier sur l’astronomie grecque, qui ont bénéficié, grâce à elle, d’une base solide, constituée par des données rigoureuses et abondantes. — H.

How far is it possible to arrive at an understanding of alien systems of belief? Is it possible to talk meaningfully of “science” and of its various constituent disciplines, “astronomy”, “geography”, “anatomy”, and so on, in the ancient world? Are logic and its laws universal? Is there one ontology – a single world - to which all attempts at understanding must be considered to be directed? When we encounter apparently very different views of reality, how far can that be put down to a difference in conceptions of what needs explaining, or of what counts as an explanation, or to different preferred modes of reasoning or styles of inquiry? Do the notions of truth and belief represent reliable cross-cultural universals? In another area, what can ancient historyteach us about today’s social and political problems? Are the discourses of human nature and of human rights universally applicable? What political institutions do we need to help secure equity and justice within nation states and between them?

The contributions in this volume – which tackle the three basic topics of encyclopedic texts, centres of learning, and paradigm shifts - deal with a wide variety of topics, ranging from the Ancient Near East to the Early Medieval West. They bring us into contact with many different cultures and languages: those of Neo-Assyrian, Babylonian and Hellenistic Mesopotamia; of Late-Antique and Medieval Judaism; of the Late-Antique Greco-Roman world; and of Christianity under the Roman, Byzantine, Islamic and Carolingian Empires. The contributions show that the discussion of cultural change in relation to the field of knowledge and learning, and as applied to some of the literary witnesses thereto, is an approach both enriching and rewarding, since it contributes both to the elucidation of the past and also to a better understanding of the present. The topics treated in this volume, therefore, are not only relevant to specialists in the various fields, but are likely to stimulate much further investigation of comparable or related themes, by demonstrating the approaches to and directions of research which are most fruitful in the study of the complicated questions pertaining to cultural phenomena and their mutation, transformation or development in a continually changing world.}, alturl = {\url{http://www.peeters-leuven.be/boekoverz_print.asp?nr=7557}}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{slotsky2009talliesand}}, contents = {ToC: \url{http://digitool.hbz-nrw.de:1801/webclient/DeliveryManager?pid=3032133}}, price = {35 EUR}, sortkey = {MacDonald.A:2003_Learnedantiquity}, timestamp = {2015-05-20}, } @Review{macdonald2008reviewnort, author = {Lee Macdonald}, journal = {Journal of the British Astronomical Association}, title = {Cosmos (2008), North J [Review]}, year = {2008}, volume = {118}, pages = {314}, number = {6}, _month = {12}, _reviewof = {\cite{north2008cosmos}}, bibmas = {1}, contents = {volume ToC: \url{http://britastro.org/journal/118-6.htm}}, file = {macdonald2008reviewnort.pdf:macdonald2008reviewnort/macdonald2008reviewnort.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, library = {BAA office: \url{http://britastro.org/}}, month = dec, related = {north2008cosmos}, relatedtype = {reviewof}, shortjournal = {JBAA}, sortkey = {Macdonald.L:2008_ReviewsCosmosillustrated}, timestamp={2014-02-21}, url = {http://britastro.org/journal/pdf/118-6macdonald.pdf}, urldate = {2014-02-21}, } @Incollection{machinist1993heavenlywi, author = {Peter Machinist and Hayim Tadmor}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp} #and# Ossendrijver’s notes #and# \url{http://www.hds.harvard.edu/sites/hds.harvard.edu/files/machinist0710.pdf}}, booktitle = {The tablet and the scroll}, editor = {Cohen, Mark E. and Snell, Daniel C. and Weisberg, David B.}, title = {Heavenly Wisdom}, year = {1993}, booksubtitle = {Near Eastern Studies in Honor of William W.

This paper consists of three parts. In the first chapter, I illustrated the productivity of the fields in Lagash. 6 gur-sag-gál 49 sìla per bùr (2179.1l per ha) and 76.1-fold of sowing amount, the figures which I gained from RTC71 and DP574 written in the same year, can be regarded as the average land and seed-productivity of barley in Lagash at the end of the Early Dynastic Period. But fertility declined greatly by the time of the Third Dynasty of Ur. My estimate of 30 gur-lugal per bùr (1193.2l per ha) was obtained from RTC407 in which were written the total area of directly-controled fields of barley in Lagash at that time, the amount of barley expected to be yielded from this area and lastly the amount actually yielded. As 1.5 gur-lugal of barley was sowed per bùr, seed-productivity was 20-fold. Th. Jacobsen and R. M. Adams think salinization of soil to be the cause of decline in fertility. But what brought about salinization still remains unsolved. At any rate, 20-fold at the period of the Third Dynasty of Ur is still higher than the figures reported about Italy in the Roman period. And 76.1-fold at the end of the Early Dynastic Period shows clearly the extraordinary fertility of Sumer. This was possible, of course, only by the elaborate irrigation-system. In the second and third chapter, I discussed the character of irrigating-works in Sumer. To begin with, I dealed with the so-called “Farmers’ Almanac” in which were described various advices for a good harvest given by a farmer to his son. The farmer gives his son many, sometimes too trifle, advices about the agricultural activities at the time of preparing land, sowing and harvesting. To irrigate three or four times according to the growth of barley is, however, the only one instruction by him about the period between sowing and harvesting. That is to say, a good harvest could be expected in ordinary years only by doing such works during the interval period. Naturally it was chiefly between sowing and harvesting that people were engaged in the collective irrigating-labor. In fact, we know from CT III 18343, a large Lagash-tablet of the Third Dynasty of Ur, that erìn-people worked exclusively at the ditches of various fields and canals from the seventh month to the twelfth, roughly between sowing and harvesting. A further study must be made about the interrelations between agricultural production and collective labor-organization, because “the pattern of despotism in Sumer” will be defined by these two fundamental factors of sumerian society.}, altauthor = {前川, 和也}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {compare \cite{maekawa1974agricultur}?}, file =

Den besonderen Schwerpunkt bilden zwei grundlegende Elemente der Astronomie – Zeitmessung und Beobachtung der Position von Himmelskörpern - unabhängig von Epochen und Kulturkreisen. The volume consists of 25 selected papers previously published in periodicals, conference proceedings, festschrifts, books, etc. between 1974 and 2000. The studies treat specific quantitative problems of positional astronomy from China to Babylonia and from Greece to Central Europe during a period of over 3000 years.

In addition to the problem of the Cape observations in October 1862, it is suggested that systematic effects remain in the residuals of prerecovery observations in January 1992 and in the observations in July 1862. Investigation of the comet’s motion prior to 1737 makes it very probable that the comet was seen in + 188 and -68 and that it passed no closer than 0.66 \{AU\} from the Earth between + 188 and 1737. Extrapolation to the future suggests that there will be no danger that the Earth will collide with P/Swift-Tuttle during the next millennium, although the persistent small distance between the orbits of the two objects makes it necessary to consider P/Swift-Tuttle as a possible eventual threat. Rereduction of the Cape observations confirms the systematic residuals discussed previously. }, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004cometsmete} [Possible Early Returns of other Periodic Comets]}, file = {marsden1993updateonco.pdf:marsden1993updateonco/marsden1993updateonco.pdf:PDF}, sortkey = {Marsden.B:1993_UpdateCometSwift}, timestamp = {2015-04-22}, } @Article{martin1869memoiresur, author = {Martin, Thomas-Henri}, title = {Mémoire sur cette question}, journal = {Mémoires présentés par divers savants à l’Académie des inscriptions et belles-lettres}, year = {1869}, subtitle = {La précession des équinoxes a-t-elle été connue des Égyptiens ou de quelque autre peuple avant Hipparque?}, language = {french}, series = {1}, volume = {8}, number = {1}, pages = {303--523}, url = {http://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k5761089d/f319.image}, urldate = {2017-06-07}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004fixedstars} [Pre-Hipparchian Knowledge of the Precession of the Equinoxes] }, file = {martin1869memoiresur.pdf:martin1869memoiresur/martin1869memoiresur.pdf:PDF}, location = {Paris}, publisher = {Imprimerie Nationale}, shortjournal = {MAIBL}, sortkey = {Martin.T:1869_Memoiresurcette}, timestamp = {2013-06-23}, } @PhdThesis{martiny1932diekultric, author = {Martiny, Günter}, title = {Die Kultrichtung in Mesopotamien}, year = {1932}, language = {german}, location = {Berlin}, pagetotal = {VII+34}, __markedentry = {[alex:]}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s notes #and# \cite{gent2004zigguratsa} [Astronomical Orientation and Function of Mesopotamian Temples] #and# \url{http://katalog.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/cgi-bin/titel.cgi?katkey=1766498}}, comment = {\cite{neugebauer1934reviewmart,weissbach1934reviewmart}}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, library = {UB [Signatur:ZA 6629,22]}, number = {13}, publisher = {Koldewey-Gesellschaft in Kommission bei H.

When he brought out his Astronomical Formulae for Calculators in 1979, it was practically the only book of its genre. It quickly became the “source among sources,” even for other writers in the field. Many of them have warmly acknowledged their debt (or should have), citing the unparalleled clarity of his instructions and the rigor of his methods. And now this Belgian astronomer has outdone himself yet again with Astronomical Algorithms! Virtually every previous handbook on celestial calculations (including his own earlier work) was forced to rely on formulae for the Sun, Moon, and planets that were developed in the last century — or at least before 1920. The past 10 years, however, have seen a stunning revolution in how the world’s major observatories produce their almanacs. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California and the U.S. Naval Observatory in Washington, D.C., have perfected powerful new machine methods for modeling the motions and interactions of bodies within the solar system. At the same time in Paris, the Bureau des Longitudes has been a beehive of activity aimed at describing these motions analytically, in the form of explicit equations. Yet until now the fruits of this exciting work have remained mostly out of reach of ordinary people. The details have existed mainly on reels of magnetic tape in a form comprehensible only to the largest brains, human or electronic. But Astronomical Algorithms changes all that. With his special knack for computations of all sorts, the author has made the essentials of these modern techniques available to us all. The second edition contains new chapters about the Jewish and Moslem Calendars, and on the satellites of Saturn, and a new Appendix giving expressions (polynomials) for the heliocentric coordinates of the giant planets Jupiter to Neptune from 1998 to 2025.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{ossendrijver2012babylonian}}, contents = { Table of Contents Some Symbols and Abbreviations 5 1.

The latter have to be reconstructed from legal and administrative texts that mention merchants.

In this paper, Wayne Mitchell undertakes a comprehensive review of these records, starting with the ancient texts themselves. He concludes that astronomical data can form the basis of an absolute Near Eastern chronology, but that there are other solutions at least as acceptable as those previously proposed. These new solutions result from a reinvestigation of the observations, using a computer program capable of accommodating various theories on the long term deceleration of the Earth’s rate of rotation. The date range of the computer run was extended to take in the new radically low chronology proposed in JACF 1. As a result, there emerges the strong possibility of revising the accession of king Ammizaduga of the 1st Dynasty of Baby/on down by c. 163 years to 1419 BC.}, asin = {B00QNNE31A}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004astronomic} [Other Reports and General Discussions]}, file = {mitchell1990ancientast.pdf:mitchell1990ancientast/mitchell1990ancientast.pdf:PDF;original:mitchell1990ancientast/mitchell1990ancientasta.pdf:PDF}, publisher = {Institute for the Study of Interdisciplinary Science}, shortjournal = {JACF}, shortpublisher = {ISIS}, sortkey = {Mitchell.W:1990_AncientAstronomicalObservations}, timestamp = {2015-06-01}, } @Review{mitchell1995reviewmill, author = {T.C.

Digging deep into history, Clemency Montelle examines the ways in which theoretical understanding of eclipses originated and how ancient and medieval cultures shared, developed, and preserved their knowledge of these awe-inspiring events. Eclipses were the celestial phenomena most challenging to understand in the ancient world. Montelle draws on original research—much of it derived from reading primary source material written in Akkadian and Sanskrit, as well as ancient Greek, Latin, and Arabic—to explore how observers in Babylon, the Islamic Near East, Greece, and India developed new astronomical and mathematical techniques to predict and describe the features of eclipses. She identifies the profound scientific discoveries of these four cultures and discusses how the societies exchanged information about eclipses. In constructing this history, Montelle establishes a clear pattern of the transmission of scientific ideas from one culture to another in the ancient and medieval world.

Many are preserved, and using these seemingly crude ancient and medieval observations of eclipses, variations in the Earth’s rotation can be traced back over the past 2500 years. The tidal torque exerted by the Moon (and to a lesser extent, the Sun) is the predominant mechanism in reducing the Earth’s spin. It is known that by this mechanism, the length of the day is increasing by 2.3 milliseconds per century. By analysing observations of eclipses, the actual measured change in the length of the day is +1.7 milliseconds per century, from which it is concluded that besides the tidal contribution there is another long-term component acting to decrease the length of the day by 0.6 milliseconds per century.

The observations are treated in two broad categories: untimed and timed. An untimed observation must have the place and date, but not the time, as the special geometry of the eclipse path essentially supplies this. A timed observation requires the time of day of the eclipse as well as the date and place. In the period 700BC to AD1600 we have found 106 reliable untimed and 343 timed observations of solar and lunar eclipses recorded by the ancient/medieval civilizations of Babylon, China, the Arab Dominions and Europe. Analyses of these two independent datasets lead to the conclusion that the rate of rotation is decreasing, such that the length of the day (lod) is increasing on the average by 1.8 milliseconds per century (ms/cy). This is consistent to within the accuracy of measurement with the resultant sum of a tidal increase of 2.3 ms/cy and a decrease of 0.5 ms/cy due to post-glacial uplift following the end of the last ice-age. Besides these secular changes, there is clear evidence of fluctuations in the lod of several ms on a timescale of centuries.}, adsnote = {Provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System}, adsurl = {http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2000IAUJD...6E...9M}, bibmas = {1}, file = {morrison2002ancientecl.pdf:morrison2002ancientecl/morrison2002ancientecl.pdf:PDF}, sortkey = {Morrison.L:2002_Ancienteclipsesand}, timestamp = {2015-06-12}, } @Book{moss1988scienceina, author = {Carol Marie Moss}, title = {Science in Ancient Mesopotamia}, year = {1988}, publisher = {Grolier Publishing and Scholastic Library Publishing and Franklin Watts and Turtleback Books}, isbn = {978-0-531-20364-4 ; 0-531-20364-6 ; 978-0-613-54344-6 ;0-613-54344-0 ; 978-0-531-15930-9 ; 0-531-15930-2 ; 978-0-531-10594-8 ;-531-10594-6}, pagetotal = {71}, language = {english}, location = {New York}, abstract = {Describes the enormous accomplishments of the Sumerians and Babylonians of ancient Mesopotamia in every scientific area, a heritage which affects our own everyday lives.}, bibmas = {1}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, undefined, temp}, series = {Science of the Past Ser., Look What Came from}, sortkey = {Moss.C:1988_ScienceinAncient}, timestamp={2013-12-06}, } @Article{mosshammer1981thalesecli, author = {Mosshammer, Alden A.}, title = {Thales’ Eclipse}, journal = {Transactions of the American Philological Association (1974-)}, year = {1981}, language = {english}, volume = {111}, pages = {145--155}, issn = {03605949}, doi = {10.2307/284125}, url = {http://www.jstor.org/stable/284125}, urldate = {2017-06-07}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{heller2010dasbabylon}}, copyright = {Copyright © 1981 American Philological Association}, file = {mosshammer1981thalesecli.pdf:mosshammer1981thalesecli/mosshammer1981thalesecli.pdf:PDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, jstor_formatteddate = {1981}, publisher = {Johns Hopkins University Press}, shortjournal = {TAPhA}, sortkey = {Mosshammer.A:1981_ThalesEclipse}, timestamp = {2015-05-13}, } @Article{mostert1989datingofug, author = {Mostert, Richard}, title = {Dating of the Ugarit Eclipse}, journal = {Nature}, year = {1989}, date = {1989-09-14}, volume = {341}, number = {6238}, pages = {112--113}, issn = {1476-4687}, doi = {10.1038/341112b0}, url = {http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v341/n6238/abs/341112b0.html}, urldate = {2017-06-07}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004astronomic} [The Ugarit Eclipse]}, file = {mostert1989datingofug.pdf:mostert1989datingofug/mostert1989datingofug.pdf:PDF}, sortkey = {Mostert.R:1989_DatingUgaritEclipse}, timestamp = {2015-04-27}, } @Book{mucke1976hellekomet, author = {Mucke, Hermann}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004cometsmete} [Catalogues of Cometary Observations and Orbits]}, title = {Helle Kometen -86 bis +1950.}, year = {1976}, subtitle = {Ephemeriden und Kurzbeschreibungen}, titleaddon = {[Bright Comets -86 to +1950: Ephemerides and Concise Descriptions]}, edition = {2}, publisher = {Astronomisches Büro}, pagetotal = {94}, language = {german english}, location = {Vienna}, bibmas = {1}, oclc = {604553482}, origdate = {1972}, origoclc = {729241675}, sortkey = {Mucke.H:1976_HelleKometen86}, timestamp={2015-04-21}, } @Article{mucke1985derkometph, author = {Mucke, Hermann}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004cometsmete} [Ancient Observations and Orbital Motion of Comet 1P/Halley]}, journal = {Die Sterne}, title = {Der Komet P/Halley als säkulare Himmelserscheinung}, year = {1985}, editor = {Robert Henseling}, journalsubtitle = {Zeitschrift für alle Gebiete der Himmelskunde}, volume = {61}, pages = {276--287}, issn = {0039-1255}, bibmas = {1}, editortype = {founder}, location = {Potsdam}, sortkey = {Mucke.H:1985_KometPHalley}, sorttitle = {Komet P/Halley als säkulare Himmelserscheinung, Der}, timestamp={2015-04-22}, } @Inproceedings{mueller1999aramaeisch, author = {Müller-Kessler, Christa}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s notes #and# \url{http://www.uni-jena.de/unijenamedia/Bilder/faculties/phil/iskvo/Publikationen+Mueller_Kessler+2010.pdf}}, booktitle = {Babylon: Focus Mesopotamischer Geschichte}, editor = {J.

Bidez. He drew my attention to § 31 (1028 F) of the work mentioned in the title, in which Plutarch speaks about a “Chaldean” doctrine according to which the four seasons of the year can be arranged in certain harmonic proportions. The discovery of the unequal length of the four seasons is undoubtedly one of the most fundamental achievements of ancient astronomy because it is equivalent to the discovery of an inequality in the movement of the sun. The explanation of this inequality as apparent by assuming a certain eccentricity of the sun’s orbit with respect to the earth is the basis for the ancient theory of the eccentric movements, a theory which finally led to Kepler’s discovery of the elliptic orbits of the planets. On the other hand, the cuneiform astronomical tablets of the Seleucid period show that the inventors of these mathematical devices also were fully conscious of the fundamental rôle of an adequate description of the inequality of the movement of the sun in the prediction of the visibility of the moon’s crescent and of eclipses. The careful investigation of every ancient statement about the unequal length of the seasons is therefore fully justified.}, addendum = {reprintas \cite[273-277]{neugebauer1983astronomya} (DOI:

Shortly thereafter, A. Sachs found a group of solstices and equinoxes in a large “observation” text in Chicaqo, A 345E, certainly also from Uruk, covering the years 116 to 132 (-195 to -179). I then disoovered that these dates were not observed but were derived from a fixed scheme whose backbone is the above-mentioned list of solstices. After this initial success, Sachs and I investigated all dates of solstices and equinoxes available to us from texts of the Seleucid period-texts which belong to the Uruk archive as well as the Babylonian archive. It will be shown in this paper that the same scheme holds for all of them. One of the consequences of this discovery is the insight that no solstitial or equinoctial date which is found in “observation” texts can be evaluated as an observation and utilized for comparison with modern calculation. In particular, all conclusions from such dates with respect to precession are not valid.}, bibmas = {1}, copyright = {Copyright © 1948 The American Schools of Oriental Research}, file = {neugebauer1948solsticesa.pdf:neugebauer1948solsticesa/neugebauer1948solsticesa.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, jstor_formatteddate = {1948}, keywords = {U 107 + U 124, A 3456, Columbia 6x, MLC 1860, MLC 1885, MLC 2195, Rm 4.189, Rm 4.224, Rm 4.348, Rm 4.356, Rm 4.397, Rm 4.435, SH 81-6-25.214, SH 81-7-6.101, SH 81-7-6.103, SH 81-7-6.492, SH 392, SH 467, 82-7-4.137}, language = {english}, location = {Boston}, publisher = {American Schools of Oriental Research}, shortjournal = {JCS}, sortkey = {Neugebauer.O:1948_SolsticesEquinoxes}, timestamp={2014-02-13}, } @Article{neugebauer1948theastrono, author = {Neugebauer, Otto Eduard}, bibmas_src = {\cite{neugebauer1983astronomya}, sections 4 and 5, according to \cite{walker2013bibliograp}: “Appendix (other publications by authors cited above, and various marginally relevant items) [NB.

Very little, however, is known about the origin of the theory of conic sections as such. It is well known that the familiar names of these curves, ellipse, hyperbola, and parabola, originated from Apollonius’s method of attack, which consists in applying the methods of “geometrical algebra” to the discussion of these curves. Apollonius obtains his curves by intersecting a fixed skew circular cone by a plane of variable angle. We also know that this approach is very different from the earliest known method to obtain conic sections. Menaechmus, a pupil of Eudoxus, is credited with the discovery of the conic sections (about 350 B.C.). These curves were obtained, however, by a very peculiar construction. The cone is a right circular cone; the intersecting plane is always perpendicular to one of the generating lines of the cone, and the three types of curves are obtained by varying the angle at the vertex of the cone. The strange condition of perpendicularity of the intersecting plane always seemed to me to point to only one explanation, the theory of sundials. The generating line must be the “gnomon,” the intersecting plane is the plane on which the shadow is cast. I shall demonstrate in the following section that a very simple type of sundial satisfies all requirements which lead to the above definition of conic sections.}, addendum = {reprintas \cite[295-297]{neugebauer1983astronomya} (DOI: 10.1007/978-1-4612-5559-8_21)}, bibmas = {1}, copyright = {Copyright © 1948 American Philosophical Society}, file = {neugebauer1948theastrono.pdf:neugebauer1948theastrono/neugebauer1948theastrono.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, keywords = {/}, language = {english}, location = {Philadelphia}, publisher = {American Philosophical Society}, shortjournal = {PAPS}, sortkey = {Neugebauer.O:1948_AstronomicalOriginTheory}, sorttitle = {Astronomical Origin of the Theory of Conic Sections, The}, timestamp ={2013-12-06}, } @Article{neugebauer1949astronomic, author = {Neugebauer, Otto Eduard}, bibmas_src = {\cite{neugebauer1983astronomya}, sections 4 and 5, according to \cite{walker2013bibliograp}: “Appendix (other publications by authors cited above, and various marginally relevant items) [NB.

We know practically nothing about the underlying concepts concerning the physical nature of the treated phenomena.

Even today the artistic qualities of many Persian and Arabic astrolabes have given these instruments a place in museums and private collections. Beautifully illustrated articles and books on the astrolabe have been published but this material hardly goes back beyond the 10th century. About the earlier history, very contradictory statements can be found in the literature. While classical scholars tend to trace the idea of the astrolabe back to Apollonius and Archimedes (about 200 B.C.) or even to Eudoxus (about 350 B.C.), one finds in a recent book1 the statement, “En résumé, l’astrolabe est méditerranéen. Son histoire va du VIe au XVIIe siècle de notre ère.” The present paper is an effort to establish a more solid foundation for the history of the astrolabe in Greek astronomy. I shall show that the astrolabe as an instrument was known to Ptolemy (150 A.D.) – “astrolabe” here and in the following always means the “plane astrolabe” and never the armillary sphere – and I shall also demonstrate that the contents of a work of Theon Alexandrinus (375) on the astrolabe is preserved through the treatise of Severus Sebokht on this subject (written before 660).

This speedily moving and hard-to-observe planet presents great difficulties for predictions of its appearance as morning star just before sunrise, its disappearance some weeks later, and its reappearance and vanishing as evening star. The investigation of the Babylonian theory of these phenomena is therefore an important problem in the history of ancient astronomy. But aside fromits purely historical aspects, the problem also concerns modern astronomy. The treatment phenomena near the horizon depends on empirical data, and such data have been extracted from historical records for the purpose of compiling tables for first and last visibility of the planets and the moon. A complete understanding of the texts used for such purposes is obviously an important requirement for the reliability of modern tables.

Combined with Aristotle’s idea of the “prime mover” the universe could be understood as one great system, truly geocentric. No wonder that this theory held its fascination for almost two thousand years over the minds of philosophers and even astronomers, in spite of the fact that serious difficulties were apparent almost from the start. The theories developed by specialized astronomers, like Hipparchus or Ptolemy, had to their credit a far superior agreement with the observational data.

This concept plays an important role in ancient astronomy. For example, suppose that for a certain moment of the year the sun is known to be at the beginning of a zodiacal sign. Thus with sunrise this sign begins to cross the horizon, and is then followed by the next sign and so forth untjl the sixth sign has completely risen. At that moment six signs or 180? have crossed the eastern horizon; consequently the sun, which is located at the head of this semicircle, is now exactly in the western horizon, i.e., it is setting. The length of time which elapsed between sunrise and sunset is therefore equal to the sum of the rising times of the six consecutive signs which carry the sun at their western endpoint. Hence we see that the problem of the variation of the length of daylight during the year, or the variation of the length of daylight as function of the geographical location, and many similar problems, can be solved if the rising times are known. It is, of course, irrelevant whether the rising times are measured in hours or, as in Greek astronomy, in “time degrees” (speaking modernly, right ascension) such that a complete rotation is counted either as 24 hours or as 360 degrees.

The discussion is restricted to texts which concern the mathematical theory of the planetary motion, either in the form of “procedure texts” or as “ephemerides.” The former can be characterized as collections of rules for the computation of the latter, which contain chronologically arranged predictions for planetary phenomena,more or less comparable to a modern “Nautical Almanac.” I disregard contemporary observational texts and texts which utilize (in a fashion not yet fully understood in detail) the results of the theoretically computed ephemerides for calendaric and other purposes. I also make no attempt to reconstruct the historical development which culminated in the theoretical texts as known to us mainly from the third century B.C. onwards. I do not think that the material available today is sufficient to justify such an attempt. All that we can do at present is to consider the procedure texts and ephemerides as a completed system of astronomical knowledge containing very few traces of its prehistory. The situation is thus about the same as in the case of the “Ptolemaic System” represented by the Almagest in A.D. 150 or the Old-Babylonian mathematical texts of the seventeenth or eighteenth century B.C.

After Eudoxus, about 360 B.C., had succeeded in giving a qualitative explanation of the apparent planetary orbits by means of concentric spheres, rotating about inclined axes1, Apollonius seems to have been the first geometer to utilize plain circular motion. What we know, through Ptolemy, about his theory seems to indicate that the theory was not far enough developed to account, e.g., for the dependence of the arcs of retrogradation on the longitude. Indeed, the complexity of the empirical data is so great that Hipparchus (about 150 B.C.) refrained from formulating a consistent planetary theory, a task finally accomplished by Ptolemy. To us the relative merit of Apollonius’ or Ptolemy’s theories for the representation of empirical data is no longer of great interest.

To subsequent generations, however, is somehow granted a deeper insight after the initial shock has been absorbed during the intervening years. This may be so in some, or even in many cases. In two famous instances, however, namely with Copernicus and Kepler, a careful reading of their fundamental works without assuming Kepler’s results in the study of Copernicus, or Newton’s for the reading of Kepler, will do much more justice to the contemporary scholars who cannot be blamed too much for not introducing immediately upon reading a freshly published work, the radical modification to which Brahe and Kepler subjected the cumbersome eccenter and epicyclic machinery of a pseudo-heliocentric model based on utterly insufficient empirical data, or for not replacing Kepler’s theological astrophysics by a rational dynamics. With this background in mind, I wish to give in this note some examples of those rather trivial obstacles which every careful reader of Kepler’s publications had to meet on practically every page. If Kepler ever did make any attempt to give a final polish to his writings, one can only say that he was not very successful. The number of trivial computing errors is enormous, parameters are changed without explanation (usually belonging to different stages of investigation, e.g. concerning the motion of the apsidal line of Mars), references to observations accessible to no one else are quoted sometimes in an incomplete form, sometimes for no evident reason, and so forth. To the historian of astronomy, this way of presentation is a blessing as great as a real disaster that leaves a city in total shambles is to the archaeologist. But contemporaries cannot be blamed if their reaction was different from ours.

These tables are of extreme simplicity: the (seasonal) hours of the day are associated with the length of the human shadow, measured in feet, under the assumption that the increment of the length of the shadow during the first hour before or after noon is always 1 foot, 2 feet for the next hour, then 3, then 4, and finally 10 feet. The noon shadow itself is supposed to vary linearly with a difference of 1 foot per month between a minimum value of 2 feet at the summer solstice and a maximum of 8 feet at the winter solstice (2). There are good reasons to suppose that this primitive scheme originated in Athens in the fifth century B.C. and was transmitted, without essential modifications, to Alexandria whence it spread not only to mediaeval Byzantine and Latin treatises but also up the Nile, being attested in an inscription on a Nubian Temple on the tropic (in Taphis), perhaps written around A.D. 600.}, addendum = {reprintas \cite[467-489]{neugebauer1983astronomya} (DOI: 10.1007/978-1-4612-5559-8_39)}, bibmas = {1}, copyright = {Copyright © 1964 GBPress- Gregorian Biblical Press}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, jstor_formatteddate = {1964}, language = {english}, location = {Roma}, publisher = {Gregorian Biblical Press}, shortjournal = {Or}, sortkey = {Neugebauer.O:1964_NotesEthiopicastronomy}, timestamp ={2013-12-06}, } @Book{neugebauer1966hypsiklesd, author = {Neugebauer, Otto Eduard and De Falco, V. and Krause, M.}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp}: “Appendix (other publications by authors cited above, and various marginally relevant items) [NB.

The progress of modern astronomy since Brahe and Kepler is inextricably connected with the ever-increasing accuracy and range of observational techniques and it therefore has seemed plausible to assume that a similar trend existed also in the first phase of astronomical development in the Greek world, that is, in the period from the beginnings in the fifth century b.c. to the crowning achievement, Ptolemy’s “Almagest” in the second century a.d. }, addendum = {reprintas \cite[361-369]{neugebauer1983astronomya} (DOI: 10.1007/978-1-4612-5559-8_31)}, bibmas = {1}, copyright = {Copyright © 1972 American Philosophical Society}, file = {neugebauer1972onsomeaspe.pdf:neugebauer1972onsomeaspe/neugebauer1972onsomeaspe.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, keywords = {/}, language = {english}, location = {Philadelphia}, publisher = {American Philosophical Society}, shortjournal = {PAPS}, sortkey = {Neugebauer.O:1972_AspectsEarly}, sorttitle = {Aspects of Early Greek Astronomy, On Some}, timestamp ={2013-12-06}, } @Article{neugebauer1972onthealleg, author = {Neugebauer, Otto Eduard}, bibmas_src = {\cite{neugebauer1983astronomya}, sections 4 and 5, according to \cite{walker2013bibliograp}: “Appendix (other publications by authors cited above, and various marginally relevant items) [NB.

This indeed seems to imply a variation of geocentric distance of the planet and hence to represent, in combination with the limited elongation from the sun, a heliocentric motion of Venus. In fact, however, this interpretation ignores the existence of a corresponding terminology in early Greek spherical astronomy. The Greek original of superior / inferior is, of course, xxxx / xxxx which in the spherical astronomy of Theodosius¹ denotes positions in the ecliptic, equivalent to later xxxx / xxxx. Any variation in depth is excluded by the very nature of spherical astronomy which exclusively concerns appearances on the celestial sphere. Hence the proper rendering of these terms is “ahead” and “behind” (in the ecliptic), not “nearer” or “farther.” Applying this terminology to the chapter in Chalcidius we may now translate the beginning as follows: “Heraclides Ponticus, when describing the circle (circulum) of Venus as well as that of the sun, and giving the two circles the same centre (unum punctum) and the same mean motion (unam medietatem), showed that Venus is sometimes ahead (superior), sometimes behind (inferior) the sun.” What follows is a lengthy discussion of this variable elongation, reaching 50? on each side of the sun. The topic of the whole chapter thus becomes a rather trivial discussion of the shift between the morning-star and the evening-star phase of the planet and has nothing to do with any heliocentric cinematic model. Whether Chalcidius himself used as illustration an epicyclic model or not (four centuries after Apollonius) is of no interest. The reference to Heraclides contains no such element.}, addendum = {reprintas \cite[370-371]{neugebauer1983astronomya} (DOI: 10.1007/978-1-4612-5559-8_32)}, bibmas = {1}, copyright = {Copyright © 1972 The Johns Hopkins University Press}, file = {neugebauer1972onthealleg.pdf:neugebauer1972onthealleg/neugebauer1972onthealleg.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, keywords = {/}, language = {english}, location = {Baltimore}, publisher = {Johns Hopkins University Press}, shortjournal = {AJP}, sortkey = {Neugebauer.O:1972_AllegedlyHeliocentricTheory}, sorttitle = {Allegedly Heliocentric Theory of Venus by Heraclides Ponticus, On the}, timestamp ={2013-12-06}, } @Incollection{neugebauer1973babylonisc, author = {Neugebauer, Otto Eduard}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker1993bibliograp,walker2013bibliograp}}, booktitle = {400 Jahre Akademisches Gymnasium in Graz, 1573–1973: Festschrift}, editor = {Danhofer, Wilhelm}, title = {Babylonische Mathematik und Astronomie und griechische Wissenschaft}, year = {1973}, publisher = {Verl. des Akadem.

To subsequent generations, however, is somehow granted a deeper insight after the initial shock has been absorbed during the intervening years. This may be so in some, or even in many cases. In two famous instances, however, namely with Copernicus and Kepler, a careful reading of their fundamental works without assuming Kepler’s results in the study of Copernicus, or Newton’s for the reading of Kepler, will do much more justice to the contemporary scholars who cannot be blamed too much for not introducing immediately upon reading a freshly published work, the radical modification to which Brahe and Kepler subjected the cumbersome eccenter and epicyclic machinery of a pseudo-heliocentric model based on utterly insufficient empirical data, or for not replacing Kepler’s theological astrophysics by a rational dynamics. With this background in mind, I wish to give in this note some examples of those rather trivial obstacles which every careful reader of Kepler’s publications had to meet on practically every page. If Kepler ever did make any attempt to give a final polish to his writings, one can only say that he was not very successful. The number of trivial computing errors is enormous, parameters are changed without explanation (usually belonging to different stages of investigation, e.g. concerning the motion of the apsidal line of Mars), references to observations accessible to no one else are quoted sometimes in an incomplete form, sometimes for no evident reason, and so forth. To the historian of astronomy, this way of presentation is a blessing as great as a real disaster that leaves a city in total shambles is to the archaeologist. But contemporaries cannot be blamed if their reaction was different from ours.

Nevertheless it cannot be doubted that an important parameter of Babylonian lunar theory remained in perpetual use into the calendrical structure of Renaissance works of art. We can also be certain that its astronomical significance was still fully understood in Roman Egypt, even outside the schools of professional astronomers like Ptolemy or Theon and we know that a Hebrew version existed during the same period but probably reduced to simple calendrical usage. We know that it survived in this form into the late Middle Ages in Muslim Egypt but we cannot say how this version reached the computists of the Renaissance. Our inquiry has stretched over at least sixteen centuries.

It has been known for a long time that the rate of rotation of the earth “is subject to A2 a long-period variation independent of the retardation produced by lunar tidal forces.” For that matter, the rotation of the earth is also subject to short-period variations independent of the lunar tides. The oddity in this context is that the book in question has nothing to do with the forces responsible for the variation in the earth’s rotation. Instead, as its preface clearly states and its [very] title implies, the object of the book is to enquire whether the force of gravitation (including the modifications due to general relativity) is sufficient to account for the observed orbital motion of the earth and the other planets, or whether there may be other effects that affect the orbital motion at the present level of observational accuracy. A3 If the reviewers can make such an outstanding error in even understanding the object of the book (and their review shows many other failures of understanding as well), it is clear that they are not competent to review the book. The question then arises: how can such an incompetent review appear in a scholarly journal? This paper will be concerned with documenting the incompetence of the review in question, and with suggesting a method of improving the quality and integrity of book reviews. A4 I should point out one editorial matter in this introduction. I identify a reference by giving the name of the author or authors, followed by the year of publication, in square brackets. When necessary, I follow the year of publication by a specific point of reference, such as page number or a section number. For example, the book in question will be cited as [Newton, 1976]. If I need to refer specifically to page 532, for example, I add “p.532” after “1976” within the brackets.

Men and women were thus eager to interpret, appeal to, and even control the gods and their agents. In Prayer, Magic, and the Stars in the Ancient and Late Antique World, a distinguished array of scholars explores the many ways in which people in the ancient world sought to gain access to-or, in some cases, to bind or escape from-the divine powers of heaven and earth. Grounded in a variety of disciplines, including Assyriology, Classics, and early Islamic history, the fifteen essays in this volume cover a broad geographic area: Greece, Egypt, Syria-Palestine, Mesopotamia, and Persia. Topics include celestial divination in early Mesopotamia, the civic festivals of classical Athens, and Christian magical papyri from Coptic Egypt. Moving forward to Late Antiquity, we see how Judaism, Christianity, and Islam each incorporated many aspects of ancient Near Eastern and Graeco-Roman religion into their own prayers, rituals, and conceptions. Even if they no longer conceived of the sun, moon, and the stars as eternal or divine, Christians, Jews, and Muslims often continued to study the movements of the heavens as a map on which divine power could be read. The reader already familiar with studies of ancient religion will find in Prayer, Magic, and the Stars both old friends and new faces. Contributors include Gideon Bohak, Nicola Denzey, Jacco Dieleman, Radcliffe Edmonds, Marvin Meyer, Michael G. Morony, Ian Moyer, Francesca Rochberg, Jonathan Z. Smith, Mark S.

Seitdem ist der Text viele Male behandelt worden, und unter den Interpretationen befinden sich auch sehr phantasievolle. Allen Äußerungen lagen nur Umschriften bzw. Übersetzungen zu Grunde, denn der Keilschrifttext selbst ist auch heute, fast 100 Jahre danach, noch nicht veröffentlicht. Fotos hat der Vf. schon vor Jahrzehnten in anderem Zusammenhang veröffentlicht. Sie sind zwar bei Borger, HKL 2, 205 sub “Neugebauer, Otto: Quellen und Studien ... (1936)”, vermerkt, späteren Bearbeitern allerdings in der Regel entgangen. So bildet die Grundlage für die Beschäftigung mit dem interessanten Dokument, das Sterne bzw. Sternkonstellationen zum Gegenstand hat, noch immer die Untersuchung, die Otto Neugebauer 1936 vorgelegt hat. Neugebauer, der auch die ältere Literatur kurz resümiert, war Anfangder 30-er Jahre des 20. Jh.s während seiner Besuche in der Hilprecht-Sammlung, Jena, auf das Original gestoßen und hat erstmals dieses selbst einer Bearbeitung zugrundegelegt. Er kommt im Anschluß an Thureau-Dangin zu dem Ergebnis, daß es sich inhaltlich um das Problem der Unterteilung einer Strecke handelt,also um eine mathematische Aufgabe, die am Beispiel stellarer Größen demonstriert wird.

Although the cuneiform texts refer rather cursorily and only in a few instances directly to such garments, I hope to show that enough indirect evidence is available to study with some success the nature of these garments and their technological background. In order to achieve this, the philologist has to take cognizance of the archeological material, which, happily enough, is especially abundant for the very period which yields most of the textual evidence. Apart from the words used to denote these “golden garments,” we also have at our disposal their representations in the works of Mesopotamian art as well as actual remnants thereof.

We know of these persons from a considerable body of cuneiform texts published nearly seventy years ago by R. CampbeIi Thompson as The Reports of the Magicians and Astrologers of Nineveh and Babylon in the British Museum (London, 1900, two volumes). In the meantime, we have come to understand that the writers of these reports were neither “magicians” nor “astrologers” but rather the practitioners of what I am going to call here, in the sense of the disciplina etrusca, a well-defined “discipline”. My presentation will concentrate on the men who wrote the Reports, on the range and purpose of their scholarly activities, and on their relationship t o the king in Nineveh. I shall not touch upon a number of interesting topics on which the mentioned tablets yield considerable information: they bear directly on often datable observations of astronomical phenomena, and on the astronomical nomenclature of the period; they also contain information on the history of the important collection of astral omens called Eniima-Am-Enlil, one of the principal written sources of the above-mentioned “discipline,” as well as on the foreign and domestic policies of the Assyrian empire. Because the aims I have set myself are rather restricted, I will also avoid discussing any linguistic problems. My translations are provided with a minimum of commentary and I have rendered the designations of planets, fixed stars, and constellations in the traditional way because proper identification matters little in the passages I will utilize.}, bibmas = {1}, file = {oppenheim1969divination.pdf:oppenheim1969divination/oppenheim1969divination.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, keywords = {EAE, 80-7-19, 83-1-18, ABL 765, K 1393 = ABL 1448, K 1308, K 1332, K 8391, Rm 201, 80-7-19, 81-2-4, 89-4-26, ABL 137, ABL 895, ABL 470, YOS 1.39}, location = {København}, publisher = {Munksgaard International Publishers (Blackwell)}, rescue_20140919 = {yes}, sortkey = {Oppenheim.A:1969_DivinationandCelestial}, timestamp ={2013-06-22}, walker_note = {[various K. texts listed]}, } @Article{oppenheim1974ababylonia, author = {Oppenheim, Adolph Leo}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker1993bibliograp,walker2013bibliograp} #and# \cite{gent2004astrologyo} [Astrology in General]}, journal = {Journal of Near Eastern Studies}, title = {A Babylonian Diviner’s Manual}, year = {1974}, volume = {33}, number = {2}, date = {1974-04}, pages = {197--220}, issn = {00222968}, url = {http://www.jstor.org/stable/544733}, urldate = {2013-06-22}, bibmas = {1}, copyright = {Copyright © 1974 The University of Chicago Press}, file = {oppenheim1974ababylonia.pdf:oppenheim1974ababylonia/oppenheim1974ababylonia.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, keywords = {K 2847}, keywords_by_walker_or_gent = {true}, language = {english}, location = {Chicago}, publisher = {University of Chicago Press}, rescue_20140919 = {yes}, shortjournal = {JNES}, sortkey = {Oppenheim.A:1974_BabylonianDivinersManual}, sorttitle = {Babylonian Diviner’s Manual, A}, timestamp ={2013-06-22}, walker_note = {[K 2847, and other K. texts]}, } @Collection{oppenheim1977ancientmes, editor = {Oppenheim, Adolph Leo and Reiner, Erica}, title = {Ancient Mesopotamia}, year = {1977}, subtitle = {Portrait of a dead civilization}, edition = {Revised edition, completed by Erica Reiner}, publisher = {University of Chicago Press}, location = {Chicago}, isbn = {0226631877 ; 9780226631875}, pagetotal = {xvi+445+15+3}, url = {http://oi.uchicago.edu/research/pubs/catalog/misc/ancient_mesopotamia.html}, urldate = {2013-11-11}, __markedentry = {[alex:]}, abstract = {Since its first publication in 1964, Ancient Mesopotamia has remained the most distinguished presentation of the civilization of Babylonia and Assyria. As a distinguished scholar and linguist who spent more than thirty years studying the cuneiform tablets, Oppenheim offers reader a personal picture of the Mesopotamians of three-thousand years ago. In the first chapter, he provides an overview. In the second chapter, he examines the urbanism, political and social organization, and economical facts in ancient Mesopotamia. In chapter three, he discusses the differences between the “historical sources” and “literature” in Mesopotamia. In the fourth chapter he reveals the ancient Mesopotamians’ relations with their gods such as how Mesopotamians fed their gods. He also deals with Mesopotamian psychology and arts. In the last two chapters he discusses the literature, medicine, and science in Mesopotamia. At the time of his death in 1974, Oppenheim had incorporated about half the material that he intended to include in the revision of the volume. The remaining material was sorted and marked for insertion at the proper places. Thus, this revised edition incorporates the new information we possess on Mesopotamian civilization – it is a compendium both of the author’s insights and of the vast amount of material that has become available since the first edition. In this way Ancient Mesopotamia can continue to serve as an up-to-date research tool for students and scholars alike.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004generallit} [General Overviews on the History, Culture \& Literature of Mesopotamia] #and# \cite{slotsky2009talliesand}}, comment = {\url{http://www.jstor.org/stable/598171}, \url{http://www.jstor.org/stable/1201244}}, file = {oppenheim1977ancientmes.pdf:oppenheim1977ancientmes/oppenheim1977ancientmes.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, origdate = {1964}, related = {oppenheim1964ancientmes}, relatedtype = {origpubas}, sortkey = {Oppenheim.A:1977_AncientMesopotamia}, timestamp = {2013-11-11}, } @InReference{oppenheim1978manandnatu, author = {Oppenheim, Adolph Leo}, title = {Man and Nature in Mesopotamian Civilization}, booktitle = {Dictionary of Scientific Biography Supplement I}, year = {1978}, editor = {Gillispie, Charles Coulston}, maintitle = {Dictionary of Scientific Biography}, volume = {15}, publisher = {Charles Scribner’s Sons}, location = {New York}, isbn = {0684147793 ;

through simple concepts to increasingly complex concepts and algorithms – Incorporates a typological analysis of all astronomical procedures – Includes a glossary of Babylonian technical astronomical terms, many of which are not adequately explained in the available dictionaries – Includes over 100 photos of cuneiform tablets dating from 350-50 BCE – Incorporates recent insights from Assyriology and translation science – Contains updated and expanded astronomical interpretations and investigations that have previously ignored in linguistic, mathematical and other aspects Babylonian Mathematical Astronomy: Procedure Texts contains a new analysis of the procedure texts of Babylonian mathematical astronomy. These cuneiform tablets, excavated in Babylon and Uruk and dating from 350‒50 BCE, contain computational instructions that represent the earliest known form of mathematical astronomy of the ancient world. The targeted readership includes assyriologists, historians of science, astronomers and others with an interest in Babylonian astronomy. The book includes new translations of all 108 available tablets that are based on a modern approach incorporating recent insights from assyriology and translation science. All translations are accompanied by commentaries and photographs of the tablets. The preceding chapters are devoted to documentary, lexical, semantic, mathematical and astronomical aspects of the procedure texts. Special attention is given to issues of mathematical representation, a topic that had previously been largely ignored. Mathematical concepts are presented in a didactic fashion, setting out from the most elementary ones (numbers and elementary operations) to more complex ones (algorithms and computational systems).

In this paper I aim to discuss Neugebauer’s approach to the translation of Babylonian mathematical astronomy and assess it in the light of subsequent research. Apart from the editions of astronomical tablets contained in Astronomical Cuneiform Texts (Neugebauer 1955) and elsewhere we can hope to learn something about this topic from his other works, since he often displays a profound interest in methodological issues. However, Neugebauer rarely discussed his method of translation, focussing instead on the mathematical methods developed by him for analysing astronomical tables and reconstructing the underlying algorithms and empirical data. Nevertheless, these aspects of Neugebauer’s methodology turn out to be relevant for understanding his approach to translation.

Nelson and he intend to collaborate, it became evident that he could not successfully grapple with the problems of Ramses III’s temple calendar without a thorough investigation into all the calendarial phenomena of ancient Egypt. Once started, his own predilection for the subject led him farther and farther, so that what was originally intended as a page or two of footnotes has grown to the proportions of the present volume. Parker demonstrates that the Egyptians had three calendars, two lunar and religious, one civil. Parker begins with a consideration of the lunar day and month, passes on to an analysis of the later lunar calendar, then discusses the probable nature of the early lunar calendar, and, finally, suggests a possible origin for the civil calendar.

It belonged to the celebrated French orientalist, the Abbe Eusebe Renaudot (1648-1720) who willed it with the rest of his library to the Abbey of St.-Germain-des-Pres. It was carried thence during the Revolution to the Bibliotheque Nationale together with over 300 other Arabic manuscripts preserved at this monastery. The title-page states that the work contained in the manuscript is the “Kitab al-qirainatwa tahwil sini al-’alam” (Book of Conjunctions and Change of the World-years) of the Persian astronomer al-Sijzi (fl. 969/999). In the upper margin another hand has inscribed the title “Kitab al-adwar wat-uluf” (Book of the Countries and of the Thousands) and attributed it to the astrologer Abu Ma’shar (10 August 787-8 March 886). Though de Slane takes this second attribution to be the correct one, the present investigation shows that al-Sijzi is indeed the compiler of the work, but that Abu Ma’shar was probably one of his sources. This study is limited to ff. 6-10, which contain tables of a series of 79 horoscopes. When the folia are arranged in their proper order it becomes evident that there are three groups of horoscopes.

This development is due to several factors: our greatly increased understanding of cuneiform material made possible by the scholarship of Professor O. Neugebauer; the discovery of Babylonian parameters and techniques not only in the standard Greek astronomical texts, but in papyri and astrological treatises as well; and the finding of Mesopotamian material in Sanskrit works and in the traditions of South India. Unfortunately, a lack of familiarity with the Sanskrit sources and a failure to consider the transmission of scientific ideas in the context of a broad historical perspective have recently led one scholar to the erroneous conclusion that Sasanian Iran played a crucial role in the introduction of Greek and Babylonian astronomy and astrology to India and in the development of Indian planetary theory. It is my purpose in this paper to survey briefly the influence of foreign ideas on Indian ganakas so as to make clear the creative use they made of their borrowings in devising the yuga-system of astronomy; and then to examine the character of Sasanian astronomy and astrology, pointing out their almost complete lack of originality.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker1993bibliograp,walker2013bibliograp}}, copyright = {Copyright © 1963 The History of Science Society}, file = {pingree1963astronomya.pdf:pingree1963astronomya/pingree1963astronomya.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, keywords = {Naksatras, Jyotisavedanga, Majjhimanikaya, Ramayana, Mahabharata, RMA, Pancasiddhantika, Vasisthasiddhanta}, location = {Chicago}, publisher = {University of Chicago Press on behalf of The History of Science Society}, rescue_20140919 = {yes}, sortkey = {Pingree.D:1963_AstronomyandAstrology}, timestamp = {2014-10-10}, walker_note = {[includes discussion of Babylonian influence]}, } @Article{pingree1965thepersian, author = {Pingree, David Edwin}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp}: “Appendix (other publications by authors cited above, and various marginally relevant items) [NB.

But I must enter a cautionary note with regard to that portion which relates to the Indian intercalation-cycle: the evidence in both the cuneiform and the Sanskrit sources is so fragmentary that no hypothetical reconstruction of the development or of the interrelation of their respective intercalation-cycles is more than a reasonable guess.

I. Sabra of Harvard on the perennial problem of the definition of science appropriateto a historian of science; its corruption (including the deliberately extreme mode of its expression) is entirely a result of my own labors. For the piece represents the attitudes toward the subject that I have developed over some three and a half decades of studying the history of the “exact” sciences (as I will persist in calling them despite the lack of exactitude in some of them), as practiced in ancient Mesopotamia, in ancient and medieval Greece, India, and the Latin-speaking West, and in medieval Islam. It is this experience, then, and the desire to reconstructa complex history as accurately as possible, that motivates me – these two, and the wish to provide an apologia for my claim to be a historian of science rather than of quackery. For the sciences I study are those related to the stars, and they include not only various astronomies and the different mathematical theories they employ, but also astralomens, astrology, magic, medicine, and law (dharmasastra). All of these subjects, I would argue, were or are sciences within the contexts of the cultures in which they once flourished or now are practiced. As such they deserve to be studied by historians of science with as serious and thorougha purpose as are the topics that we usually find discussed in history of science classrooms or in the pages of Isis. This means that their intellectual content must be probed deeply, and not simply dismissed as rubbish or interpreted in the light of modern historical mythology; and that the intellectual content must be related to the culture that produced and nourished each, and to the social context within which each arose and developed.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp}}, copyright = {Copyright © 1992 The History of Science Society}, file = {pingree1992hellenophi.pdf:pingree1992hellenophi/pingree1992hellenophi.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, keywords = {/}, location = {Chicago}, publisher = {University of Chicago Press on behalf of The History of Science Society}, sortkey = {Pingree.D:1992_HellenophiliaversusHistory}, timestamp = {2014-02-28}, } @Inproceedings{pingree1992mesopotami, author = {Pingree, David Edwin}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker1993bibliograp,walker2013bibliograp} [[\#ERR] Walker 2013 pagerange “275-379”; compare \url{www.jstor.org/stable/41668163}]}, booktitle = {La circulation des biens, des personnes et des idées dans le Proche-Orient ancien}, editor = {Charpin, Dominique and Joannès, Francis}, title = {Mesopotamian Omens in Sanskrit}, year = {1992}, booktitleaddon = {Actes de la XXXVIIIe rencontre Assyriologique internationale (Paris, 8-10 Juillet 1991)}, eventtitle = {XXXVIIIe rencontre Assyriologique internationale}, publisher = {Éditions Recherches sur les Civilisations}, isbn = {2-86538-228-1}, pages = {375--379}, location = {Paris}, number = {38}, series = {Proceedings of the Rencontres Assyriologiques Internationales}, bibmas = {1}, cross_ref = {charpin1992lacirculat}, eventdate = {1991-07-08/1991-07-10}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45}, shortbooktitle = {RAI 38 Proc.}, shortseries = {RAI Proc.}, sortkey = {Pingree.D:1992_MesopotamianOmensin}, timestamp ={2013-06-22}, venue = {Paris}, } @Review{pingree1992reviewkoch, author = {Pingree, David Edwin}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp}}, journal = {Die Welt des Orients}, title = {Neue Untersuchungen zur Topographie des babylonischen Fixsternhimmels (1989), Koch J [Review]}, year = {1992}, volume = {23}, pages = {168--170}, publisher = {Vandenhoeck \& Ruprecht}, language = {english}, location = {Göttingen}, _reviewof = {\cite{koch1989neueunters}}, bibmas = {1}, copyright = {Copyright © 1992 Vandenhoeck \& Ruprecht (GmbH \& Co.

Most of the Western “classical” astronomy, as well as possible Chinese astronomy, derives from these early studies that were transmitted, first to subsequent Mesopotamic civilizations, and then to the Greeks through the Hellenistic Kingdoms. It is thus not surprising that most of the Greek constellations are strictly linked with the Mesopotamic ones. This rule fails in just a few cases, the most significant one being the Ursa Major constellation. In the Sumeric sky, this asterism is lacking and it is substituted by two other ones, the first made by the brightest stars of Ursa Major, and the second centered around (and named from) the star now named 80 UMa. This is quite strange, since this star is not too bright (V = 4.0) and is not now the brightest one of the sky field covered by the Sumeric constellation. A possible explanation is that, in the Sumer era, 80 UMa was much brighter than it is now. Actually, 80 UMa is classified as a variable star, but its V variability is reported to be only of 0.1 mag. On the other hand, it is an IR source and it is surrounded by a significant amount of circumstellar material. We thus explored the possibility that this star underwent a huge outburst arond 5000 years ago, similar to that experienced by P Cyg in the XVII century and by Eta Car in the past century, by using, on the one hand, the available spectroscopic and photometric data of 80 UMa and, on the other hand, the analysis of the Mesopotamic myths linked to this asterism. We argue that, despite 80 UMa’s classification as a main-sequence (A5V) spectroscopic binary, we cannot rule out the possibility that it is actually a more exotic object.

A scholar of religious thought and biblical archaeology, James Pritchard recruited the foremost linguists, historians, and archaeologists to select and translate the texts. The goal, in his words, was “a better understanding of the likenesses and differences which existed between Israel and the surrounding cultures.” Before the publication of these volumes, students of the Old Testament found themselves having to search out scattered books and journals in various languages. This anthology brought these invaluable documents together, in one place and in one language, thereby expanding the meaning and significance of the Bible for generations of students and readers. As one reviewer put it, “This great volume is one of the most notable to have appeared in the field of Old Testament scholarship this century.” Princeton published a follow-up companion volume, The Ancient Near East in Pictures Relating to the Old Testament (1954), and later a one-volume abridgment of the two, The Ancient Near East: An Anthology of Texts and Pictures (1958).

With more than 130 reading selections and 300 photographs of ancient art, architecture, and artifacts, this volume provides a stimulating introduction to some of the most significant and widely studied texts of the ancient Near East, including the Epic of Gilgamesh, the Creation Epic (Enuma elish), the Code of Hammurabi, and the Baal Cycle. For students of history, religion, the Bible, archaeology, and anthropology, this anthology provides a wealth of material for understanding the ancient Near East.

Ces tablettes sont aujourd’hui conservées dans les musées archéologiques d’Istanbul, de Philadelphie et de Iéna. Le lot d’Istanbul est entièrement édité dans cet ouvrage et dans le CD qui l’accompagne (photos, copies, transcriptions). Les tablettes mathématiques de Nippur sont principalement des brouillons d’écoliers. Sans doute considérées comme trop élémentaires, elles avaient jusqu’à une date récente peu attiré l’attention des épigraphistes et des historiens, et elles étaient restées ignorées dans les réserves des musées. Pourtant, les tablettes scolaires apportent de précieux témoignages sur la vie intellectuelle qui s’est épanouie à Nippur, la grande capitale culturelle de la Mésopotamie, et notamment sur la place qu’y occupaient la langue sumérienne et les mathématiques, dans leurs raffinements les plus abstraits. L’étude des textes scolaires mathématiques, en prolongeant celles qui ont été menées sur les textes scolaires lexicaux et littéraires sumériens, permet une reconstitution remarquablement détaillée du cursus de formation des scribes. Précisément parce qu’ils sont des textes d’apprentissage, ces modestes brouillons d’écoliers donnent accès aux conceptions originales en matière de métrologie, de numération et de calcul qui étaient inculquées aux jeunes scribes et qui donc contribuaient au fond culturel des milieux érudits. Par ailleurs, trois textes mathématiques savants, dont un texte inédit conservé à Istanbul, ont été retrouvés à Nippur. Leur contenu est particulièrement intéressant, car il concerne différents aspects du calcul des volumes et des racines cubiques. Si on les aborde selon les conceptions élaborées par les scribes eux-mêmes, telles qu’elles leur ont été enseignées, et non au moyen de nos outils algébriques et arithmétiques actuels, ces textes livrent toute la singularité et la finesse des mathématiques qui se sont développées à cette époque.}, bibmas = {1}, month = oct, number = {18}, series = {Varia Anatolica}, sortkey = {Proust.C:2007_Tablettesmathematiquesde}, timestamp={2015-05-12}, } @Article{proust2009deuxnouvel, author = {Proust, Christine}, title = {Deux nouvelles tablettes mathématiques du Louvre}, journal = {Zeitschrift für Assyriologie und Vorderasiatische Archäologie}, year = {2009}, subtitle = {AO 9071 et AO 9072}, volume = {99}, number = {2}, pages = {167--232}, issn = {0084-5299}, doi = {10.1515/ZA.2009.005}, url = {https://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/hal-01139657}, urldate = {2017-06-07}, abstract = {The two mathematical tablets AO 9071 and AO 9072 from the Musée du Louvre are published here for the first time.

Jts. v. Chr. beginnt das so genannte “Dunkle Zeitalter”.

Jts. und die Zeit davor zu liefern: alle Daten vor ca. 1430/20 v. Chr. sind relativ. Zahlreiche Versuche die erste Dynastie von Babylon absolut zu datieren wurden anhand der Auswertung der auf der “Venus Tafel” vermerkten astronomischen Beobachtungen aus der Zeit des altbabylonischen Herrschers Ammisaduqa unternommen, die zu einer langen, mittleren bzw. kurzen Chronologie führten. Vorliegende Einleitung zur Chronologie Mesopotamiens im 2. Jt. behandelt die Themenbereiche astronomische Daten, Kalender, keilschriftliche Quellen mit chronologischen Informationen und naturwissenschaftliche Methoden. Diese bilden mit Einbindung früherer Forschungsergebnisse und zahlreicher Querverweise die Basis für die Chronologie-Diskussion. Mit der alphabetischen Reihenfolge der Themenbereiche will die Einleitung gezielt einer thematischen Gewichtung entgegenwirken; der chronologische Wert der einzelnen Bereiche wird zusammenfassend am Ende der Kapitel erläutert. Kapitel 1 enthält einen Überblick über die Probleme der mesopotamischen Chronologie des 2. Jts. Mit der ausgiebigen und kritischen Diskussion chronologischer Studien enthält sich diese Einleitung bewusst einer Positionierung für éine bestimmte Chronologie, die darauf abzielt den aktuellen Stand der Forschung umfassend und verständlich zu präsentieren und weiterführende Forschung zu stimulieren. ___ Around the middle of the 2nd millennium B.C., after the end of the first Babylonian dynasty, there is a chronological gap in all of our information from Mesopotamia, the Dark Age, which makes it impossible to establish the absolute chronology of the earlier half of the millennium and before. Only relative dates can be provided prior to c.1430/1420 B.C. The central problem of Mesopotamian chronology is the dating of the first Babylonian dynasty. Attempts have been made to compute an absolute date for this dynasty by means of the “Venus Tablet” written, it would seem, during the reign of the Old Babylonian King Ammisaduqa. But the data in the table is difficult to interpret and has resulted in three chronologies, the high, the middle and the low. This “introduction” to the chronology of 2nd millennium Mesopotamia includes the topics which form the basis for chronological discussions, such as the dating methods and calendars of Mesopotamia, relevant sources for Mesopotamian chronology and natural science information. Each chronological topic is discussed in a separate chapter. The topics, ­ hence chapters, ­ are arranged alphabetically, not in order of importance: the chronological importance of each topic is considered in a summary at the end of each chapter. Chapter 1 starts with an overview of the problems of 2nd millennium Mesopotamian chronology. Throughout the book previous research in the individual topics is reviewed at some length with constant reference to the relevant publications and related topics. This book is not an argument for any of the currently proposed chronologies, but an extensive and critical review of existing studies. It is hoped that it will offer insights into the current state of chronological research in Ancient Near Eastern studies and will stimulate further research.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{jong2013astronomic}}, shortpublisher = {VÖAW}, sortkey = {Pruzsinszky.R:2009_MesopotamianChronology2nd}, timestamp = {2015-06-19}, } @Reference{radner2011theoxfordh, editor = {Karen Radner and Eleanor Robson}, title = {The Oxford Handbook of Cuneiform Culture}, year = {2011}, date = {2011-09}, series = {Oxford Handbooks in Classics and Ancient History}, publisher = {Oxford University Press}, location = {Oxford}, isbn = {0199557306 ; 9780199557301}, pagetotal = {840}, doi = {10.1093/oxfordhb/9780199557301.001.0001}, url = {http://oxfordindex.oup.com/view/10.1093/oxfordhb/9780199557301.001.0001}, urldate = {2017-06-07}, abstract = {The cuneiform script, the writing system of ancient Mesopotamia, was witness to one of the world’s oldest literate cultures.

Although far from being developed into an astrology as we know it from the Greeks, astral influence was sought in various areas of Mesopotamian science. The haruspex turned to the stars asking that they place reliable omens in the exta of the lamb, and there are also some indications that parts of the exta examined for divinatory purposes were associated with planets and constellations. It is especially the medical texts which reveal the importance attributed to astral influence in enhancing the efficacy of the treatment.}, alturl = {\url{http://archive.org/stream/TheUsesOfAstrology/Reiner_1985_JAOS105_the_uses_of_astrology}}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_prnt = {yes}, copyright = {Copyright © 1985 American Oriental Society}, file = {reiner1985theusesofa.pdf:reiner1985theusesofa/reiner1985theusesofa.pdf:PDF}, groups = {rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, keywords = {EAE}, language = {english}, location = {New Haven, CT}, publisher = {American Oriental Society}, shortjournal = {JAOS}, sortkey = {Reiner.E:1985_UsesAstrology}, sorttitle = {Uses of Astrology, The}, timestamp ={2013-09-24}, } @SuppPeriodical{reiner1993twobabylon, author = {Reiner, Erica}, title = {Two Babylonian precursors of astrology}, year = {1993}, date = {1993-03-31}, number = {26}, issue = {spring}, month = mar, pages = {21--22}, issn = {0989-5671}, url = {http://sepoa.fr/?page_id=160}, urldate = {2014-02-28}, _month = {03}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_note = {not available on achemenet.com}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp} #and# \cite{gent2004astrologyo} [Astrology in General]}, file = {Article extract (sepoa.fr):reiner1993twobabylon/reiner1993twobabylon.pdf:PDF;Whole bulletin (version sepoa.fr):reiner1993twobabylon/reiner1993twobabylona.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, journal = {Nouvelles Assyriologiques Brèves et Utilitaires}, keywords = {11N-T4, BRM 4 19, BRM 4 20, STT 300}, shortjournal = {NABU}, sortkey = {Reiner.E:1993_2Babylonianprecursors}, sorttitle = {002 Babylonian precursors of astrology}, timestamp={2014-02-28}, } @Book{reiner1995astralmagi, author = {Reiner, Erica}, title = {Astral Magic in Babylonia}, year = {1995}, language = {english}, series = {Transactions of the American Philosophical Society}, number = {85,4}, publisher = {American Philosophical Society}, location = {Philadelphia}, pagetotal = {xiii+150}, url = {http://archive.org/stream/AstralMagicInBabylonia/Reiner_astral_magic_in_babylonia#page/n1/mode/2up}, urldate = {2013-09-24}, __journal = {Transactions of the American Philosophical Society}, __shortjournal = {TAPS}, alturl = {\url{http://www.jstor.org/stable/1006642}}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s notes #and# \cite{walker2013bibliograp} #and# \cite{gent2004astrologyo} [Astrology in General]}, comment = {\cite{geller1998reviewrein,veldhuis1997reviewrein,boeck1996reviewrein,dalley1997reviewrein,lambert1999reviewrein}}, copyright = {Copyright © 1995 American Philosophical Society}, file = {directly from jstor:reiner1995astralmagi/reiner1995astralmagi.pdf:PDF;from archive.org:reiner1995astralmagi/reiner1995astralmagia.djvu:Djvu;from archive.org:reiner1995astralmagi/reiner1995astralmagia.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, issn = {00659746}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, jstor_formatteddate = {1995}, shortseries = {TAPS}, sortkey = {Reiner.E:1995_AstralMagicin}, timestamp = {2013-09-24}, } @Book{reiner1998babylonia3, author = {Reiner, Erica and Pingree, David Edwin}, title = {Babylonian Planetary Omens, Part 3}, year = {1998}, maintitle = {Babylonian Planetary Omens}, volume = {3}, series = {Cuneiform Monographs}, number = {11}, publisher = {Styx Publications}, location = {Groningen}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s notes #and# \cite{walker2013bibliograp} #and# \cite{gent2004astrologyo} [Enuma Anu Enlil]}, comment = {\cite{koch2000reviewrein,oelsner2001reviewrein}}, gent_note = {[edition of tablets 59-60, dealing with the planet Venus.]}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, keywords = {EAE 59, EAE 60}, rescue_20140919 = {yes}, shortmaintitle = {BPO}, shortseries = {CM}, shorttitle = {BPO 3}, sortkey = {Reiner.E:1998_BabylonianPlanetaryOmens3}, timestamp = {2013-06-22}, walker_note = {[Venus omens, including EAE 59-60]}, } @Incollection{reiner1998celestialo, author = {Reiner, Erica}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp} #and# Ossendrijver’s notes #and# \cite{gent2004astrologyo} [Astrology in General]}, booktitle = {tikip santakki mala bašmu}, editor = {Maul, Stefan M.}, title = {Celestial Omen Tablets and Fragments in the British Museum}, year = {1998}, booksubtitle = {Festschrift für Rykle Borger zu seinem 65.

Longitude, lunar velocity, lunar latitude, solar anomaly and corrections for obliquity and local latitude are all included in a complete ephemeris. These data values are combined with complementary elapsed time variables including length of daylight and length of the synodic month to produce the required spatial and temporal coordinates of the visibility of the first crescent. In this paper I examine the behaviour of the lunar velocity as it is found in System B ephemerides, in relation to calculations of the velocity derived from modern dynamical parameters. It will be seen that concordances can be quite striking, and that realistic evaluations can be made of the applicable accuracy of the tabu lated function. Dates of texts can be confirmed, and dates can be found for three undated texts. [..] The results above have been obtained by comparing the tabulated linear function with the sinusoidal dynamic function; the conformity of the two functions has been established for dated ephemerides, and dates have been found for three previously undated texts. Diophantine extension has been previously employed to date texts by continuation; this requires that all parameters of the conjoined texts be the same, and that the functions are in phase. Functions are not sufficiently regular to make continuation the norm.

Eleanor Robson offers a history like no other, examining ancient mathematics within its broader social, political, economic, and religious contexts, and showing that mathematics was not just an abstract discipline for elites but a key component in ordering society and understanding the world. The region of modern-day Iraq is uniquely rich in evidence for ancient mathematics because its prehistoric inhabitants wrote on clay tablets, many hundreds of thousands of which have been archaeologically excavated, deciphered, and translated. Drawing from these and a wealth of other textual and archaeological evidence, Robson gives an extraordinarily detailed picture of how mathematical ideas and practices were conceived, used, and taught during this period. She challenges the prevailing view that they were merely the simplistic precursors of classical Greek mathematics, and explains how the prevailing view came to be. Robson reveals the true sophistication and beauty of ancient Middle Eastern mathematics as it evolved over three thousand years, from the earliest beginnings of recorded accounting to complex mathematical astronomy. Every chapter provides detailed information on sources, and the book includes an appendix on all mathematical cuneiform tablets published before 2007. Eleanor Robson is reader in ancient Middle Eastern science at the University of Cambridge and a fellow of Darwin College, Cambridge.

Leiden: Brill Academic Publishing, 2010. EUR 152, USD 216 (cloth). Eleanor Robson Once upon a time, not so long ago, Babylonia had an ambivalent status at the margins of ancient science, as at once too practical and yet too mystical to count as proper (a.k.a. Greek‐style) intellectual endeavor. These assumptions and prejudices were highlighted and debunked by Francesca Rochberg a few years back in the first chapter of her marvelous book The Heavenly Writing: Divination, Horoscopy, and Astronomy in Mesopotamian Culture (Cambridge, 2004). In the rest of that volume she presented a more culturally grounded, sympathetic, and ultimately convincing image of celestial scholarship in ancient Iraq, based on the solid foundations of her own readings and editions of the ancient sources, a clear understanding of naked‐eye observation of the skies, and an impressive familiarity and facility with recent writings in the philosophy and anthropology of science. Rochberg’s new book, In the Path of the Moon: Babylonian Celestial Divination and Its Legacy, is a collection of twenty‐one essays written over the course of the past thirty years. Presented roughly chronologically, they trace Rochberg’s intellectual journey from philologically focused Assyriologist to philosophically engaged historian of ancient science and doyenne of her field, although her work rightly remains closely engaged with the cuneiform sources. Indeed, about a quarter of the essays presented here are technical studies of the internal workings of Babylonian horoscopic astrology. “Benefic and Malefic Planets in Babylonian Astrology,” “Babylonian Seasonal Hours,” “Babylonian Horoscopy: The Texts and Their Relations,” “Lunar Data in Babylonian Horoscopes,” and “A Babylonian Rising Times Scheme in Non‐Tabular Astronomical Texts” all pretty much do what they say in their titles, in a fairly traditional way. A further quarter move beyond the internal workings of the texts to examine the larger intellectual context of celestial scholarship in cuneiform culture. The three pieces “Canonicity in Cuneiform Texts,” “The Assumed 29th ahû Tablet of Enūma Anu Enlil,” and “Continuity and Change in Omen Literature” together address an important and still contentious topic in Assyriology: the degree to which intellectual culture was homogeneous, traditional, or even static in the first millennium b.c. As Rochberg convincingly shows, this was far from the case, although the great celestial omen series Enūma Anu Enlil (“When the gods Anu, Enlil [and Ea]”) continued to represent its ancient, divinely ordained origins. Relatedly, “Scribes and Scholars: The T˙upšar Enūma Anu Enlil” examines the changing self‐identities and self‐presentation of the small coterie of Assyrian Babylonian men who used the professional designation “scribe of Enūma Anu Enlil” from the seventh to the second century b.c. Likewise, “TCL 13: Mixed Traditions in Late Babylonian Astrology” marshals evidence for an eclectic attitude to the compilation of divinatory techniques and methods in the early Seleucid period (third century b.c.). A third group of essays consider the epistemology of Babylonian celestial scholarship: what did the texts mean to those who wrote and studied them? In the earliest of the studies presented here, “Fate and Divination in Mesopotamia,” Rochberg explores the philosophical consequences of a concept of fate that is not irrevocably fixed but carefully determined by the gods: “The course of events was thereby considered neither causally connected with the signs that portended them nor inevitable consequences thereof” (p. 30). In this statement we see the origins of some of Rochberg’s most powerful and philosophically oriented recent writings: “Conditionals, Inference, and Possibility in Ancient Mesopotamian Science,” “‘If P, then Q’: Form and Reasoning in Babylonian Divination,” and “Periodicities and Period Relations in Babylonian Celestial Sciences.” Drawing together these studies and “The Heavens and the Gods in Ancient Mesopotamia,” in “Divine Causality and Babylonian Divination” she elegantly reformulates her conclusions from three decades ago: “If divine causation … subsumes all other forms of causal links between events, then Babylonian ideas about causality are simply a part of their metaphysics concerning the role and effect of the divine in the world, and distinctions between god, causality and fate are not sharply drawn” (p. 424). Finally, there is the fundamental question with which we began this review: the relationship(s) between Babylonian celestial scholarship and later (and earlier) intellectual traditions. Already in the mid 1980s Rochberg was situating her work in a larger framework with “New Evidence for the History of Astrology” and “Elements of the Babylonian Contribution to Hellenistic Astrology,” while the introduction to the whole volume surveys classical and late antique images of “Chaldaean” astrologers. More recently, Rochberg has turned her attention to origins in “Old Babylonian Celestial Divination”; we can expect an edition of these four‐thousand‐year‐old works from her shortly. Finally, “The Babylonian Origins of the Mandaean Book of the Zodiac” and “A Short History of the Waters above the Firmament” (a reference to Genesis 1:6) remind us that it is not only in the Grecophone scientific tradition that Babylonian influence was fundamental. In short, In the Path of the Moon offers a variety of routes into the further exploration of the sources, themes, and approaches Rochberg introduces to such great effect in The Heavenly Writing. It is an essential addition to any history of science library, especially those in (the many) institutions without a specialist Assyriology collection.}, bibmas = {1}, copyright = {Copyright © 2011 The History of Science Society}, date = {2011-12}, doi = {10.1086/664848}, file = {robson2011reviewroch.pdf:robson2011reviewroch/robson2011reviewroch.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, issn = {00211753}, jstor_articletype = {book-review}, related = {rochberg2010inthepatho}, relatedtype = {reviewof}, sortkey = {Robson.E:2011_FrancescaRochbergIn}, timestamp = {2014-10-10}, url = {http://www.jstor.org/stable/10.1086/664848}, urldate = {2014-10-10}, } @Inproceedings{rochberg1981fateanddiv, author = {Rochberg-Halton, Francesca}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker1993bibliograp,walker2013bibliograp} #and# \cite{gent2004astrologyo} [Astrology in General]}, booktitle = {Vorträge gehalten auf der 28.

The implications of such references, for the history of astrology, however, depend on a closer assessment of the nature and extent of the Babylonian contribution to that branch of Hellenistic science, but an assessment based on cuneiform sources. This paper undertakes such an assessment. Three elements which are demonstrably Babylonian in origin yet form basic and integral parts of Greek astrological doctrine provide the focus of discussion. They are: 1) planetary exaltations, 2) the micro-zodiac, and 3) trine aspect. The differences between the Babylonian and Greek use of these three elements are exemplary of the fact that despite the incorporation of Babylonian elements at the inception of Greek astrology, the overall character and rationale of Greek astrology remains entirely a Hellenistic Greek product.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker1993bibliograp,walker2013bibliograp}}, copyright = {Copyright © 1988 American Oriental Society}, file = {rochberg1988elementsof.pdf:rochberg1988elementsof/rochberg1988elementsof.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, keywords = {LBAT 1591, BM 36943, LBAT 1466, BM 47642, BM 47721, K 3753, BM 32376}, location = {New Haven, CT}, publisher = {American Oriental Society}, shortjournal = {JAOS}, sortkey = {Rochberg-Halton.F:1988_ElementsBabylonianContribution}, timestamp = {2014-10-10}, } @Incollection{rochberg1988naburimann, author = {Rochberg, Francesca}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp} #and# \cite{gent2004unsorted}}, booktitle = {Ancient and medieval series}, editor = {Magill, Frank Northen}, title = {Nabu-rimanni}, year = {1988}, maintitle = {Great lives from history}, volume = {3}, publisher = {Salem Press}, isbn = {0893565458 ; 9780893565459}, pages = {1439--1443}, url = {http://hdl.handle.net/2027/mdp.39076000809009}, urldate = {2014-02-28}, location = {Pasadena}, volumes = {5}, __markedentry = {[alex:]}, bibmas = {1}, contents = {Maintitle Volumes: V. 1.

J. Sachs and H. Hunger, presents a body of sources of the utmost significance both to the history of Mesopotamian culture in its late periods (Neo-Babylonian, Persian, Hellenistic) and to the history of ancient astronomy in general. This corpus, numbering somewhat over 1200 texts, represents a coherent branch of Babylonian astronomy, now termed “non-mathematical,” and is characterized by the systematic daily observation of lunar and planetary phenomena as well as the use of the knowledge of periodicities to occasionally predict phenomena in the event of cloudy weather. This astronomy is to be differentiated from that of the late mathematical astronomical cuneiform texts (ephemerides) and their related procedure texts, in which highly refined computational methods were applied to lunar and planetary phenomena.

For example, a lunar eclipse is referred to as “the moon god in mourning.” Metaphor and its implications for abstract relational thought in the language of Babylonian divination can be established on the basis of the function of the attested metaphorical expressions, which was to represent a physical phenomenon deemed ominous. This evidence sheds light on the conception of natural phenomena and the relation between nature and the gods in ancient Mesopotamia, underscoring the religious component of Mesopotamian science. A culture’s capacity or incapacity for the use of metaphor has been used as a criterion for differentiating ancient/traditional from modern/scientific thought in a substantial literature that includes studies in the history of Greek and Renaissance science and magic as well as in anthropology. Establishing the existence and identifying the function of metaphorical language in Mesopotamian celestial divination introduces evidence which tempers such dichotomous schemes of culture and thought.}, bibmas = {1}, copyright = {Copyright © 1996 American Oriental Society}, file = {rochberg1996personific.pdf:rochberg1996personific/rochberg1996personific.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, keywords = {EAE}, language = {english}, location = {New Haven, CT}, publisher = {American Oriental Society}, shortjournal = {JAOS}, sortkey = {Rochberg.F:1996_PersonificationsandMetaphors}, timestamp ={2014-05-19}, } @Book{rochberg1998horoscopes, author = {Rochberg, Francesca}, title = {Babylonian Horoscopes}, year = {1998}, language = {english}, series = {Transactions of the American Philosophical Society, new series}, number = {88,1}, publisher = {American Philosophical Society}, location = {Philadelphia}, pagetotal = {164}, doi = {10.2307/1006632}, url = {http://www.jstor.org/stable/1006632}, urldate = {2014-02-13}, __journal = {Transactions of the American Philosophical Society, new series}, __shortjournal = {TAPS}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004astrologyo} [Babylonian Horoscopes] #and# \cite{walker2013bibliograp} #and# Ossendrijver’s notes}, comment = {\cite{koch2001reviewroch,brown2000reviewroch}}, copyright = {Copyright © 1998 American Philosophical Society}, file = {rochberg1998horoscopes.pdf:rochberg1998horoscopes/rochberg1998horoscopes.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, issn = {00659746}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, jstor_formatteddate = {1998}, shortseries = {TAPS}, sortkey = {Rochberg.F:1998_BabylonianHoroscopes}, timestamp = {2014-02-13}, } @Inproceedings{rochberg1999babylonian, author = {Rochberg, Francesca}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004astrologyo} [Babylonian Horoscopes] #and# \cite{walker2013bibliograp}}, booktitle = {Ancient Astronomy and Celestial Divination}, editor = {Swerdlow, Noel M.}, title = {Babylonian Horoscopy}, year = {1999}, subtitle = {The texts and their relations}, publisher = {MIT Press}, isbn = {0262194228 ; 9780262194228}, pages = {39--59}, location = {Cambridge, Mass. and London}, series = {Studies in the History of Science and Technology}, bibmas = {1}, cross_ref = {swerdlow1999ancientast}, eventdate = {1994-05-06/1994-05-08}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45}, institution = {{Dibner Institute for the History of Science and Technology}}, keywords = {BM 36620, BM 78089}, organization = {Swerdlow, Noel and {Dibner Institute for the History of Science and Technology}}, rescue_20140919 = {yes}, sortkey = {Rochberg.F:1999_BabylonianHoroscopy}, timestamp={2014-02-28}, venue = {Cambridge}, walker_note = {[BM 36620, 78089]}, } @InCollection{rochberg1999continuity, author = {Rochberg, Francesca}, title = {Continuity and change in omen literature}, booktitle = {Munuscula Mesopotamica}, year = {1999}, editor = {Böck, Barbara and Cancik-Kirschbaum, Eva and Richter, Thomas}, booksubtitle = {Festschrift für Johannes Renger}, series = {Alter Orient und Altes Testament: Veröffentlichungen zur Kultur und Geschichte des Alten Orients und des Alten Testaments}, number = {267}, publisher = {Ugarit-Verlag}, location = {Münster}, pages = {415--425}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp}}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45}, shortbooktitle = {Fs Renger}, shortseries = {AOAT}, sortkey = {Rochberg.F:1999_Continuityandchange}, timestamp = {2014-02-28}, } @Article{rochberg1999empiricism, author = {Rochberg, Francesca}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s notes #and# \cite{walker2013bibliograp}}, journal = {Journal of the American Oriental Society}, title = {Empiricism in Babylonian Omen Texts and the Classification of Mesopotamian Divination as Science}, year = {1999}, volume = {119}, number = {4}, date = {1999-10-01}, pages = {559--569}, issn = {00030279}, url = {http://www.jstor.org/stable/604834}, doi = {10.2307/604834}, urldate = {2013-06-19}, abstract = {This paper reevaluates the empirical content of Babylonian omen protases in the light of more recent discussions among philosophers of science of the relation between observation and theory, and argues against separating observationally derived phenomena, understood as physical objects of ordinary sense perception, from those derived by use of schematic symmetries.

The dominant positivism in philosophy of science of this time influenced criteria employed in defining and demarcating science by historians, resulting in a persistently negative assessment of the nature of knowledge evidenced in cuneiform sources. Ancient Near Eastern astronomy (and astrology) was deemed pre- or non-scientific, and even taken to reflect a stage in the evolution of thought before the emergence of science (in ancient Greece). Two principal objections are examined: first, that the Near East produced merely practical as opposed to theoretical knowledge and, second, that astronomy was in the service of astrology and religion. As the notion of a universal scientific method has been dismantled by post-positivists and constructivists of the second half of the twentieth century, an interest in varieties of intellectual and cultural contexts for science has provided a new ground for the re-consideration of Babylonian astronomical texts as science developed here.}, alturl = {\url{https://www.academia.edu/4057913}}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004mesopotami} [Mesopotamian Astronomy \& Astrology (Shorter Studies)]}, file = {rochberg2002aconsidera.pdf:rochberg2002aconsidera/rochberg2002aconsidera.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, keywords = {/}, optkeywords = {Babylonian astronomy; Cuneiform texts; Epistemology; Hellenistic astronomy; Religion and science; Theory}, shortjournal = {Stud.

It also comments on the representation of practical geography in literary form, in itineraries attested from Old Babylonian times up to Neo- Assyrian.

Of the divine set, the most important (although the last to be finalised) were the twelve zodiacal signs, plus several associated animals (the serpent, crow, eagle, and fish), which were all transmitted to the classical Greek sky-map that we still use today.

These were taken over by the Greeks around 500 BC. However the other Babylonian constellations, their farming-calendar tradition, were not adopted. The other tradition was not Mesopotamian; it comprised large constellations which appear to date from ~2800 BC, probably from the Mediterranean region, devised for the navigators of ships. They include huge bears and serpents which marked the celestial pole and equator at that time, and probably the four anonymous giants which we know as Hercules, Ophiuchus, Bootes, and Auriga, as well as some of the large southern “marine” constellations. The origins of some other constellations, including the Perseus tableau and various animals, are unknown; they may have been new creations of the Greeks.

Three of the fragments which constitute BM 36609+ were first identified as containing a catalogue of Babylonian “Normal Stars” (stars used as reference points in the sky to track the movement of the moon and planets) by N. A. Roughten. C. B. F. Walker has been able to join several more fragments to the tablet which have revealed that other sections of the compendium concern a group of stars whose culminations are used for keeping time, known as ziqpu-stars after the Akkadian term for culmination, ziqpu. All the preserved sections on the obverse of BM 36609+ concern ziqpu-stars. On the reverse of the tablet we find several sections concerning Normal Stars. This side begins with a catalogue of Normal Stars giving their positions within zodiacal signs. The catalogue is apparently related to the only other Normal Star catalogue previously known, BM 46083 published by Sachs. In the following we present an edition of BM 36609+ based upon Walker’s transliteration of the tablet. Since Sachs’ edition of BM 46083, the Normal Star catalogue related to BM 36609+, was based upon a photograph and is incomplete we include a fresh edition of the tablet.

Archaeoastronomy, which is concerned with cultural perceptions and understandings of astronomical phenomena, is a rich cross-disciplinary field. The central aim of “Handbook of Archaeoastronomy” is to provide a reliable source for theory, method, interpretation and best practices that will give a definitive picture of the state of the art research in this field for serious scholars regardless of the discipline(s) in which they are qualified. It will be equally suitable for those already contributing to the field and those interested in entering it. Also included are studies in ethnoastronomy, which is concerned with contemporary practices related to astronomy, particularly among modern indigenous societies. A major part of this MRW is comprised of a set of wide-ranging archaeoastronomical case studies both geographically and through time, stretching right back to Palaeolithic days, and also in terms of the types of human society and nature of their astronomical ideas and practices. However, these are chosen in order to best illuminate broader issues and themes, rather than to attempt, for example, to provide systematic coverage of recent ‘discoveries.’ Thematic articles cover general themes such as cosmologies, calendars, navigation, orientations and alignments, and ancient perceptions of space and time. They also highlight various aspects of the social context of astronomy (its relationship to social power, warfare, etc) and how we interpret astronomical practices within the framework of conceptual approaches. There are also discussions of broad issues such as ethnocentrism, nationalism, and astronomical dating. The “methods and practices” articles cover topics from field methodology and survey procedures to social theory, as well as providing broad definitions and explanations of key concepts. We are also including a number of “disciplinary perspectives” on approaches to archaeoastronomy written by leading figures in the constituent fields. These articles cover material that, generally speaking, would be familiar to graduates in the relevant discipline but, critically, not so to those with different backgrounds.}, affiliation = {School

cuneiform texts of the seleucid period for sirius data, it occured to me that there is need for a brief sketch of the types and contents of these scattered documents. Chiefly by exploiting the discovery made by Kugler, between 1907 (SSB I) and 1924 (SSB II, Part 2), of the correct interpretation of remarks like PAP NU IGI and ki PAP NU IGI, I have reached some general conclusions as to the types of items which are predicted elements in contrast to those which reflect observations. A somewhat startling result is that all classes of Seleucid astronomical texts contain at least some predictons. This investigation is strictly limited to texts of the seleucid period. The few available texts of the New-Babylonian and Persian periods present problems of their own. Though relations between some categories of astronomical texts from the three periods are undeniable, the paucity of the pre-seleucid material makes it adviseable to exclude it for the time being.},

George Saliba argues that the medieval period, often called a period of decline in Islamic intellectual history, was scientifically speaking, a very productive period in which astronomical theories of the highest order were produced. Based on the most recent manuscript discoveries, this book broadly surveys developments in Arabic planetary theories from the eleventh century to the fifteenth. Taken together, the primary texts and essays assembled in this book reverse traditional beliefs about the rise and fall of Arabic science, demonstrating how the traditional “age of decline” in Arabic science was indeed a “Golden Age” as far as astronomy was concerned. Some of the techniques and mathematical theorems developed during this period were identical to those which were employed by Copernicus in developing his own non-Ptolemaic astronomy. Significantly, this volume will shed much-needed light on the conditions under which such theories were developed in medieval Islam. It clearly demonstrates the distinction that was drawn between astronomical activities and astrological ones, and reveals, contrary to common perceptions about medieval Islam, the accommodation that was obviously reached between religion and astronomy, and the degree to which astronomical planetary theories were supported, and at times even financed, by the religious community itself. This in stark contrast to the systematic attacks leveled by the same religious community against astrology. To students of European intellectual history, the book reveals the technical relationship between the astronomy of the Arabs and that of Copernicus. Saliba’s definitive work will be of particular interest to historians of Arabic science as well as to historians of medieval and Renaissance European science.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s notes}, groups = {temp}, lccn = {93031745}, seriessubtitle = {New York University Studies in Near Eastern Civilization}, sortkey = {Saliba.G:1995_HistoryArabicAstronomy}, sorttitle = {History of Arabic Astronomy, A}, timestamp = {2014-10-10}, } @Review{salmon1976reviewhods, author = {Salmon, Pierre}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp}}, journal = {Revue belge de philologie et d’histoire}, title = {The Place of Astronomy in the Ancient World (1974), Hodson F [Review]}, year = {1976}, volume = {54}, pages = {604--607}, number = {2}, publisher = {Société pour le progrès des études philologiques et historiques}, language = {french}, location = {Bruxelles}, _reviewof = {\cite{hodson1974theplaceof}}, bibmas = {1}, file = {salmon1976reviewhods.pdf:salmon1976reviewhods/salmon1976reviewhods.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, issn = {0035-0818}, related = {hodson1974theplaceof}, relatedtype = {reviewof}, shortjournal = {RBPH}, sortkey = {Salmon.P:1976_PlaceAstronomyin}, sorttitle = {Place of Astronomy in the Ancient World, The, by Hodson (Review)}, timestamp = {2014-10-10}, url = {http://www.persee.fr/web/revues/home/prescript/article/rbph_0035-0818_1976_num_54_2_5568_t1_0604_0000_2}, urldate = {2014-10-10}, } @Article{samuel1965alexanders, author = {Samuel, Alan E.}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker1993bibliograp,walker2013bibliograp} #and# \cite{gent2004mesopotami} [The Astronomical Diaries of Babylon]}, journal = {Historia}, title = {Alexander’s “Royal Journals”}, year = {1965}, journalsubtitle = {Zeitschrift für Alte Geschichte}, volume = {14}, number = {1}, date = {1965-01}, pages = {1--12}, issn = {00182311}, url = {http://www.jstor.org/stable/4434864}, urldate = {2014-02-13}, bibmas = {1}, copyright = {Copyright © 1965 Franz Steiner Verlag}, file = {samuel1965alexanders.pdf:samuel1965alexanders/samuel1965alexanders.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, keywords = {LBAT 209, LBAT 1431}, keywords_by_walker_or_gent = {true}, language = {english}, location = {Wiesbaden}, publisher = {Franz Steiner Verlag}, rescue_20140919 = {yes}, sortkey = {Samuel.A:1965_AlexandersRoyalJournals}, timestamp ={2014-02-13}, walker_note = {[reference to LBAT 209 and 1431 as examples of ephemerides]}, } @SuppPeriodical{sanford1931venusasacr, author = {Sanford, Roscoe Frank}, title = {Venus as a Crescent with the Unaided Eye}, year = {1931}, titleaddon = {Notes and Querys}, volume = {25}, month = aug, pages = {269}, issn = {0035-872X}, url = {http://adsbit.harvard.edu//full/seri/JRASC/0025//0000269.000.html}, urldate = {2014-04-25}, _month = {08}, adsnote = {Provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System}, adsurl = {http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1931JRASC..25..269C}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004planetarym} [Babylonian “Telescopes” and the Phases of Venus and Mars]}, file = {sanford1931venusasacr.pdf:sanford1931venusasacr/sanford1931venusasacr.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles}, journal = {The Journal of the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada}, shortjournal = {JRASC}, sortkey = {Sanford.R:1931_VenusasCrescent}, timestamp={2014-04-25}, } @Book{santillana1969hamletsmil, author = {de Santillana, George and von Dechend, H.}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp}: “Needing further investigation (references from Michael Rice)”}, date = {1969/1970}, title = {Hamlet’s Mill}, year = {1969}, subtitle = {An essay on myth and the frame of time}, publisher = {Gambit and Macmillan}, isbn = {9780879232153}, url = {http://books.google.de/books?id=ql7ATHGee50C}, urldate = {2013-12-05}, location = {Boston and London and Basingstoke}, bibmas = {1}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, lccn = {69013267}, sortkey = {Santillana.G:1969_HamletsMill}, sortname = {Santillana, George and Dechend, H.}, timestamp ={2013-12-05}, } @SuppPeriodical{sarton1931twentynint, author = {Sarton, George}, title = {Twenty-Ninth Critical Bibliography of the History and Philosophy of Science and of the History of Civilization.

One hundred and eighty-nine scholars from all over the world contributed their expertise to make this set the most appealing, original, and comprehensive reference on this fascinating area of study. All students, teachers, and scholars who seek to satisfy their curiosity about the ancient Near East’s peoples and cultures will find within these volumes articles that intrigue and inform them. History begins in the ancient Near East. While earlier peoples left signs-at Stonehenge, on the walls of caves in France-it is in the Near East that we first find messages, evidence of the transmission of knowledge from one generation to another, and the organization of nomadic tribes into societies with distinctive class structures, religions, and governments. Ancient Near Eastern civilizations took a great many forms, from the city-states of Mesopotamia to the centralized monarchy of Egypt, and they generated vital traditions in art, architecture, and literature. Through constant interchange with other parts of the world, these cultures influenced the emergence of three of the world’s great religions-Judaism, Christianity, and Islam-and the shape of human history into the Middle Ages and beyond. The vast expanses of desert in the region have preserved many ancient remains that scholars have recovered and analyzed. Spanning more than 4,000 years, from the Early Bronze Age to 325 BCE, this set explores all aspects of the emergence and development of the diverse cultures of the ancient Near East. Civilizations of the Ancient Near East presents this enormously rich world from a variety of perspectives. It describes the physical world of the ancient Near East, evaluates the impact of ancient Near Eastern civilizations on succeeding cultures, and reconstructs its cultural contexts based on archaeological findings and the deciphering of documents. This two-volume edition contains the complete text of the original four-volume set, including 189 articles organized in eleven parts, enhanced by 46 maps and 612 photographs and line drawings.

Anno 1912 Fr. Kugler, S. J. cognovit, in textu cuneiformi K. 160 aliisque contineri observationes planetae Veneris factas tempore Ammizadugae, successoris quarti Hammurabi regis Babylonis celeberrimi, quem plurimi putant esse Amraphel regem Sennaar, Abrahae patriarchae aequalem (Gen. 14). Anno sexto Ammizadugae notantur phaenomena Veneris singularia, quae secundum computationes P. Kugler occurrere potuerunt anno 2035 vel 1971 vel 1852. Cum res sola computatione astronomica definiri non posset, Kugler propter rationes quasdam historicas et textus oeconomicos eiusdem aetatis elegit annum 1971. Ideo Ammizadugae assignavit annos 1977-56. Hammurabi 2123-2080, toti Dynastiae primae (Amoritarum) Babylonicae 2225 – 1926 a Chr. Postmodum vero Kugler assignavit Ammizadugae 1801-1780, Hammurabi 1947-1904; Weidner autem proposuit: Am. 1809-1788, Ham. 1955-12, Schoch vero: Am 1857-36, Ham. 2003-1960, quod a Thureau-Dangin adhuc defenditur, dum ipse Schoch chronologiam a Fotheringham propositam, Am. 1921-1900, Ham. 2067-24, amplexus est, cui gravia attulit argumenta. II. Chronologia haec rationibus astronomicis, praesertim vero oeconomicis stabilitur libro a Langdon, Fotheringham, Schoch nuper Oxonii edito. III.

LII haben A. J . Sachs und D. J. Wiseman den Text BM 35603 veröffentlicht, den sie im Britischen Museum gefunden haben. In Biblica 36 (1955) 261 f. ist der Inhalt dieses Textes mitgeteilt. E r gibt die Reihe der Seleukiden, die über Babyion herrschten, mit ihren ] ahreszahlen. Der Text bringt Licht in das schwierige Problem der biblischen Makkabäerbücher, vor allem durch seine Mitteilungen über Antiochus IV. Epiphanes. Unter dieser Rücksicht sei der Text hier behandelt. Der Text BM 35603 berichtet (Rs 9-15), dass König Seleukus IV. vor dem 10. Tag des 6. (babylonischen) Monats des Jahres 137 der Seleukiden-Ära (= SÄ), d.i. vor dem 2f3. Sept. 175 v. Chr. gestorben ist. Noch im gleichen Monat, also im September 175 v. Chr., bestieg sein Bruder Antiochus IV. Epiphanes den Thron. Dieser regierte elf Jahre. Seit dem achten Monat des gleichen Jahres 137 SÄ (= 22/3. Okt. bis 19/20. Nov. 175 v. Chr.) hatte er seinen Sohn Antiochus als Mitregenten, den er aber im fünften Monat des J ahres 1 4~ SÄ (= 30/1. Juli bis 27/8. August 170 v. Chr.) töten 1iess. Im Jahre 143 SÄ (= 169/8 v. Chr.) regierte Antiochus IV. allein. Im Monat Kisimu (hebräisch Kasleu) 148 SÄ(= 19/20. Nov. bis 17/8. Dez. 164 v. Chr.) hörte man (in Babel), dass König Antiochus (im Osten) gestorben sei. Soweit der Text in seinem die Makkabäerzeit betreffenden Teil. Die J ahreszah1 148 ist von den Herausgebern richtig ergänzt auf Grund der Angabe dieses Textes, dass Antiochus IV. elf Jahre (seit dem Jahre 137 SÄ) regierte, und der anderweitig bekannten Tatsache, dass sein Nachfolger Antiochus V. Eupator im Herbst 162 v. Chr. nach mehr als einjähriger Regierung gestiirzt wurde. Der Text rechnet, wie alle babylonischen Keilschrifttexte dieser Zeit, die Seleukidenjahre ab 1.

It consists of a listing of dates (by month and day) recommended for the performance of a series of enumerated magical rites. Since its first publication by 0. R. Gurney, it has been realized that this text is related to two other late Persian or early Seleucid cuneiform texts (BRM 4.19-20) copied by Clay and edited by A. Ungnad in AfO 14. BRM 4.20, as it states in its colophon, is a commentary on ITI.BARA UD.10.KAM UD.DA.KAM SA.BAL.BAL. This is not, as Ungnad notes, BRM 4.19 but an older text which gave months and days instead of numerals. It seems likely that STT 300 is, in fact, either this older text or its ancestor. BRM 4.19-20 list the same magical rites (with a few omissions) as STT 300 and in the same order but also give a sign of the zodiac under whose auspices each rite is to be performed.

The book, however, is not a basic textbook on spherical, dynamical, or positional astronomy.

[..] ____ The Explanatory Supplement to the Astronomical Almanac offers explanatory material, supplemental information, and detailed descriptions of the computational models and algorithms used to produce The Astronomical Almanac, which is an annual publication prepared jointly by the US Naval Observatory and Her Majesty’s Nautical Almanac Office in the UK. Like The Astronomical Almanac, The Explanatory Supplement provides detailed coverage of modern positional astronomy. Chapters are devoted to the celestial and terrestrial reference frames, orbital ephemerides, precession, nutation, Earth rotation, and coordinate transformations. These topics have undergone substantial revisions since the last edition was published in 1992. Astronomical positions are intertwined with timescales and relativity in The Astronomical Almanac, so related chapters are provided in The Explanatory Supplement. The Astronomical Almanac also includes information on lunar and solar eclipses, physical ephemerides of solar system bodies, and calendars, so The Explanatory Supplement expounds upon each of these topics as well. The book is written at a technical, but non-expert level. As such, it provides an important reference for a full range of users including astronomers, engineers, navigators, surveyors, space scientists, and educators. About the Editors: – Sean E. Urban, graduated from the University of Maryland with a degree in astronomy in 1984. In 1985, he was hired as a staff astronomer in the Astrometry Department of the US Naval Observatory, where he eventually rose to Chief of the Cataloging and Requirements Division. In 2004, he became Chief of the Nautical Almanac Office of the US Naval Observatory, a position that he holds today. He has authored or co-authored more than 50 articles, most on positional astronomy. He is a member of the American Astronomical Society, the Division of Dynamical Astronomy, and the International Astronomical Union’s Division I (Fundamental Astronomy), Commission 4 (Ephemerides), and Commission 8 (Astrometry). – P. Kenneth Seidelmann, received an Electrical Engineering degree from the University of Cincinnati in 1960, a Master of Science degree in 1962, and a Doctor of Philosophy degree in Dynamical Astronomy in 1968. He joined the Nautical Almanac Office of the U. S. Naval Observatory in 1965, where he was subsequently named Director of the Nautical Almanac Office, Director of the Orbital Mechanics Department, and Director of the Directorate of Astrometry. In 2000 he retired from the U S Naval Observatory and became a research professor in the Astronomy Department of the University of Virginia. Seidelmann is coauthor of two books, Fundamentals of Astrometry and TIME, From Earth Rotation to Atomic Physics.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{ossendrijver2012babylonian}}, file = {seidelmann1992explanator.pdf:seidelmann1992explanator/seidelmann1992explanator.pdf:PDF;original (2 pages per sheet):seidelmann1992explanator/seidelmann1992explanatora.pdf:PDF}, related = {urban2013explanator}, sortkey = {Seidelmann.P:1992_Explanatorysupplementto}, timestamp = {2015-05-12}, } @Article{seidl1969diebabylon, author = {Seidl, Ursula}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004astralmyth} [Astronomical Symbols on Entitlement Narûs (kudurru’s)]}, journal = {Baghdader Mitteilungen}, title = {Die babylonischen Kudurru-Reliefs}, year = {1969}, subtitle = {Symbole mesopotamischer Gottheiten}, volume = {4}, date = {1968/1969}, pages = {7--220}, issn = {0418-9698}, addendum = {seealso updated edition reprint \cite{seidl1989diebabylon}}, bibmas = {1}, edition = {1}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals}, institution = {Deutsches Archäologisches Institut}, language = {german}, location = {Baghdad}, publisher = {Gebr.

I concentrate on the diaries dated from -463 (=464 {B.C.)} to -164 (=165 {B.C.)}, which are published in Volumes I and {II} of Astronomical Diaries And Related Texts From Babylonia ({ADRT);} this corresponds to the period from the first year of the reign of Artaxerxes I to the penultimate year of Antiochus {IV} Epiphanes. This study explores aspects of market values within the corpus of astronomical diaries and is therefore entirely focused on the contents of the diaries. Included are a philological analysis of the market quotations and a discussion of the rationale for compiling lists of these six commodity values in the otherwise mostly astronomical diaries. The major thrust of the work is devoted to the determination of the behavior of commodity values by analysis of databases of preserved market quotations and related information. These databases are printed in the Appendices. Two results were unanticipated: first of all, the diary quotations of all six commodities show little statistical evidence of monthly (seasonal) price fluctuations. Secondly, the long-term trend in the prices of the commodities over the course of the years in the study is clearly downward, contrary to accepted theory. There were also other tendencies that were found to be significant in some of the data. The relationship of commodity values to the value of silver and changes in agriculture is also considered. Other topics include: an analysis of the entries in Seleucid diaries which record changes in the level of the Euphrates (na gauge values); prices in variant texts; the scribes; and lists of names and geographical places found in the diaries. A table for converting regnal year and month into the corresponding Goldstine number is included; these numbers, prepared by John P.

After an extensive consideration of explanations offered from the 5th century to the 21st, as well as some new “thought experiments”, we suggest that Saturn’s association with the Sun had its roots in the observations that Saturn’s course appears to be the steadiest one among the planets and that its synodic period – of all the planets - most closely resembles the length of the solar year.

A modern edition of this series of 70 tablets was initiated by Erica Reiner in cooperation with David Pingree in 1975. Since then tablets 63 (Venus; 1975), 50-51 (fixed stars; 1981) and 12-22 (lunar eclipses; 1988, by F. Rochberg-Halton) have been published. The present volume brings an edition of tablets 22-29, devoted to the sun and dealing with a variety of phenomena, such as its sighting in clouds of particular shapes and colours and in a halo, the appearance of “disks” (parhelion, paraselene etc.), the sun’s radiance and colours, unexpected appearances and early risings, athmospheric phenomena at sunrise and sunset, conjunction with planets and stars, and features called “glow” and coloured “webs”. The edition follows the pattern of earlier volumes, providing introductions, transliterations, translations and short notes for each tablet, together with colophons, ancient commentaries (on parts of all tablets), excerpts (of tablets 24-26), and unplaced fragments. The original tablets (from Assur, Babylon and Nineveh) have been collated and new sources are offered in 15 photographs. Indexes list all words, names and texts. A volume dealing with solar eclipses, by F. Rochberg-Halton, will be published in the same series by the Netherlands Institute for the Near East, Leiden, in due time.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004astrologyo} [Enuma Anu Enlil] #and# Ossendrijver’s collection #and# \cite{walker2013bibliograp}}, comment = {\cite{oelsner1999reviewsold,hunger1999reviewsold,koch1998reviewsold,biggs1997reviewsold}}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, shortseries = {PIHANS}, shorttitle = {PIHANS 73}, sortkey = {Soldt.W:1995_SolarOmensEnuma}, sortname = {Soldt, Wilfred Hugo}, timestamp = {2013-11-23}, } @Review{soldt1996reviewhung, author = {van Soldt, Wilfred Hugo}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s collection #and# \cite{walker2013bibliograp}}, journal = {Zeitschrift für Assyriologie und Vorderasiatische Archäologie}, title = {Astronomical Diaries and Related Texts from Babylonia 2: Diaries from 261 B.C. to 165 BC (1989), Hunger H \& Sachs A [Review]}, year = {1996}, volume = {86}, pages = {274--275}, number = {2}, publisher = {De Gruyter}, location = {Berlin}, _reviewof = {\cite{hunger1989astronomi2}}, bibmas = {1}, doi = {10.1515/zava.1996.86.2.269}, file = {whole parent section “Buchbesprechungen”:soldt1996reviewhung/soldt1996reviewhung.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, issn = {0084-5299}, related = {hunger1989astronomi2}, relatedtype = {reviewof}, shortjournal = {ZA}, sortkey = {Soldt.W:1996_SachsAJ}, sortname = {Soldt, Wilfred Hugo}, timestamp = {2013-11-23}, urldate = {2013-11-23}, } @InProceedings{soldt2000syrianchro, author = {van Soldt, Wilfred Hugo}, title = {Syrian Chronology in the Old and Early Middle Babylonian Periods}, booktitle = {Just in Time}, year = {2000}, date = {2000-09/2000-12}, editor = {Armstrong, J.

ancient Mesopotamia. The constellation appears explicitly in the well-known story about Gilgamesh, in which the Bull of Heaven attacks Gilgamesh on the order of Inanna, the deity associated with the planet Venus. It can be argued from other sources that, as early as the 3rd millennium BCE, the Bull was particularly related to this goddess and to An, the god of heaven, both of whom were worshipped in the city of Uruk, itself ruled by Gilgamesh according to Mesopotamian tradition. The Bull of Heaven was represented pictorially in association with the gate of the heavenly palace of An.

It is therefore very exciting for the historian of the Hellenistic period to find a fairly detailed recording of the prices of food and wool over a period of more than four centuries in the so-called astronomical diaries from Babylon. The astronomical diaries give us an unique view of the development of prices over a very long period of ca. 464-61 B.C., in a degree of detail which is exceptional for ancient history. The diaries are monthly reports, copied on clay tablets in the Babylonian cuneiform script, of the movement of the planets in the starry sky. It is of the utmost importance for historical research that the astronomers to an increasing extent noted down observations of other kinds at the end of the monthly reports. They registered the purchasing power of the shekel (ca. 8.33 grammes of silver, roughly two drachms) in relation to five basic foodstuffs: barley, dates, mustard (cuscuta?), cress (cardamom?) and sesame (all in litres2)), and wool (in pounds). In addition, they reported events of political and local (=Babylonian) importance: about campaigns of kings, about visits to the city of kings and high officials, about repairs of the temples, conflicts in the city, epidemic diseases, etc. The level of the Euphrates was also carefully registered. All of this probably had an astrological purpose. Recently these astronomical diaries have become accessible to a wider audience by the publication of the tablets in three volumes in transcription and translation by the late Abraham Sachs and by Hermann Hunger (1988, 1989 and 1996).}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_note = {Preliminary version at achement.com: \url{http://www.achemenet.com/ressources/souspresse/annonces/VdSpekrevise.pdf}}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004mesopotami} [The Astronomical Diaries of Babylon]}, file = {peeters version (final):spek2003senseandno/spek2003senseandno.pdf:PDF;achement version (sous-press):spek2003senseandno/spek2003senseandnoa.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, keywords = {ADRT}, location = {Leiden}, publisher = {Nederlands Instituut voor het Nabije Oosten (NINO)}, related = {slotsky1997thebourseo,slotsky1997youcanteac}, relatedtype = {reviewof}, shortjournal = {BiOr}, shortpublisher = {NINO}, sortkey = {Spek.R:2003_SenseandNonsense}, sortname = {Spek, Robartus and Mandemakers, C.

At the time the pertinent CAD volume was conceived just a single instance of this idiom could be identified unequivocally. The Late Uruk literary corpus has since yielded one more occurrence of the idiom proper, as well as an additional ajaru-based expression which points to merry behaviour likewise. Scholars have put forward sundry suggestions as to what CAD’s ajaru B might stand for, all of them but one rejecting the claim that it be considered a noun in its own right in the first place, subsuming it under one of the other ajaru items instead. A faint line of text on an unpublished British Museum tablet, which the present speaker is in the process of editing, seems to provide a clue to settle the issue. The tablet’s contents is Egalkura rituals and similar stuff, and so happen to be the above-mentioned Uruk novelties. The question of how to account for the apparently apt place the joyful ajaru has in Egalkura, of all rituals, will be addressed subsequently.

These records also contain predictions of the times of eclipses; whether the eclipse was expected to be visible or not. Comparison of 40 lunar eclipse predictions with computation has revealed that over half relate to real umbral eclipses that were visible somewhere on the Earth’s surface. Most of the others correspond to penumbral eclipses. Analysis of the umbral eclipses has revealed that the recorded time of the prediction specifically relates to the expected time that the eclipse would begin (i.e., first contact), and that the typical accuracy of the prediction was just over one hour. Comparison of 61 solar eclipse predictions with computation has revealed that all of the predictions relate to events that were visible somewhere on the Earth’s surface, however often far away from Babylon. This represents a remarkable achievement. Almost half of the eclipses would have been visible if the Sun had been above the horizon at the time of the eclipse (i.e., the eclipse was visible at the latitude but not necessarily the longitude of Babylon). The typical accuracy of these predictions was just under two hours. There is no evidence of any improvement in the accuracy of the prediction of lunar and solar eclipse times over the Late Babylonian period. The predicted times are of significantly poorer accuracy than the times of observed eclipses, which are typically accurate to about half an hour. This suggests that whenever an eclipse was observed, the time of the eclipse was measured and replaced the predicted time in the astronomical record.}, adsnote = {Provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System}, adsurl = {http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1996BAAS...28R1302B}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s collection #and# \cite{gent2004lunarsolar} [Lunar \& Solar Eclipses]}, eventdate = {1997-01-13}, eventtitle = {189th AAS Meeting, #24.03}, file = {steele1996babylonian.pdf:steele1996babylonian/steele1996babylonian.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45}, issuetitleaddon = {American Astronomical Society Meeting Abstracts}, location = {Toronto and Ontario}, shortissuetitle = {AAS Abstracts 189}, shortjournal = {Bull.

kingdoms, or as useful astronomical events to help in deriving essential parameters for theories of the motion of the moon and sun.

In addition to cataloguing and assessing the accuracy of the various records, which come from regions as diverse as Ancient Mesopotamia, China, and Europe, the sources in which they are found are described in detail. Related questions such as what type of clocks were used to time the observations, how the eclipse predictions were made, and how these prediction schemes were derived from the available observations are also considered. The results of this investigation have important consequences for how we understand the relationship between observation and theory in early science and the role of astronomy in early cultures, and will be of interest to historians of science, astronomers, and ancient and medieval historians.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_prnt = {yes}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s notes #and# Ossendrijver’s collection #and# \cite{gent2004lunarsolar} [Lunar \& Solar Eclipses]}, comment = {\cite{goldstein2003reviewstee,morrison2001reviewstee}}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, keywords = {LBAT 1456, LBAT 1452, LBAT 1413}, shortseries = {Archimedes}, sortkey = {Steele.J:2000_ObservationsandPredictions}, timestamp = {2013-11-25}, walker_note = {[LBAT 1456, 1452, 1413]}, } @Review{steele2000reviewbern, author = {Steele, John M.}, journal = {Isis}, title = {Babylonian Lunar Theory Reconsidered}, year = {2000}, volume = {91}, pages = {125--126}, number = {1}, publisher = {University of Chicago Press on behalf of The History of Science Society}, language = {english}, location = {Chicago}, _reviewof = {\cite{bernsen1997zurentsteh}}, bibmas = {1}, copyright = {Copyright © 2000 The History of Science Society}, date = {2000-03}, file = {steele2000reviewbern.pdf:steele2000reviewbern/steele2000reviewbern.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, issn = {00211753}, jstor_articletype = {book-review}, related = {bernsen1997zurentsteh}, relatedtype = {reviewof}, sortkey = {Steele.J:2000_BabylonianLunarTheory}, sorttitle = {Entstehung der babylonischen Mondtheorie (1997), Brack-Bernsen L [Review]}, subtitle = {Lis Brack-Bernsen.

The Heavenly Writing: Divination, Horoscopy, and Astronomy in Mesopotamian Culture. xxvi + 331 pp., table, bibl., indexes. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2004. USD 70 (cloth). J. M. Steele The development of astronomy and astrology in Mesopotamia has long been known to specialists in the field as the birth of the Western tradition of celestial science. In the wider history of science community, however, it remains largely unknown (or at least unacknowledged). The publication of The Heavenly Writing: Divination, Horoscopy, and Astronomy in Mesopotamian Culture should go a considerable way toward rectifying this anomaly. The subject addressed by Francesca Rochberg in this book is the interrelation of astronomical observation, astronomical theory, astrology, and society in Mesopotamia during the second and first millennia b.c. But as an introduction she tackles the question of why Mesopotamian astronomy has remained misunderstood by mainstream historians of science, noting the bias that has led most Western historians to take the Greek philosophical approach to be a defining element of science and to reject as “unscientific” different modalities of thought. In the next chapter Rochberg discusses the practice of reading omens. The vast body of divinatory literature from Mesopotamia brings together in several canonical series omens drawn from the appearance of calves’ livers, malformed births, the entrances of animals into cities, and many other occurrences in addition to events that take place in the heavens. Rochberg, who herself has published editions of many omen texts, skillfully summarizes the contents of the omen literature and presents a nuanced investigation of the underlying cosmological, philosophical, and religious meaning of the omens that brings us significantly closer to understanding this important facet of Mesopotamian culture. The development of personal astrology in the form of the so‐called horoscopes is used by Rochberg as a focus for the main part of her book: the study of the heavens by Babylonian scribes in the Late Babylonian period. Beginning in the mid‐eighth century b.c. and continuing up to the first century a.d., Babylonian astronomers kept a careful and systematic night‐by‐night watch on the heavens for astronomical events such as passages of the moon and planets by certain bright stars, the dates of the first and last visibilities of the planets, eclipses of the sun and moon, time intervals between the moon and sun crossing the horizon on specific days near the new and full moon, and so forth. Throughout much of this period the Babylonian astronomers also made predictions of most of these phenomena, using both semiempirical methods involving past observations and abstract arithmetical astronomical theories. From the fifth century b.c. onward we have a small number of horoscopes that collect astronomical data for the date of an individual’s birth. Rochberg discusses the relationship between the astronomical data in the horoscopes and the various different classes of astronomical texts. She also discusses the development of horoscopic astronomy in the context of wider Mesopotamian divinatory practices. Finally, she addresses the issue of who the Babylonian scribes were, how they were employed, and what other types of texts they wrote. In the final chapter Rochberg discusses the nature of prediction—both astronomical prediction and astrological forecasting—in Mesopotamia. Drawing on ideas from recent scholarship in the philosophy of science, she presents a convincing picture of an internally consistent worldview held by the Babylonians. The Heavenly Writing is a significant contribution to the history of Mesopotamian astral science that will undoubtedly have a major impact on the field. Furthermore, and perhaps for the first time, it is a book on Mesopotamian astronomy that tackles wider issues of interest to historians of science and presents the material in an accessible manner. This important book deserves to be read by everyone interested in ancient science—indeed, by anyone with an interest in the Western scientific tradition.}, bibmas = {1}, copyright = {Copyright © 2005 The History of Science Society}, date = {2005-06}, doi = {10.1086/491491}, file = {steele2005reviewroch.pdf:steele2005reviewroch/steele2005reviewroch.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, issn = {00211753}, jstor_articletype = {book-review}, related = {rochberg2004theheavenl}, relatedtype = {reviewof}, sortkey = {Steele.J:2005_FrancescaRochbergHeavenly}, sorttitle = {Heavenly Writing (2004), Rochberg F [Review]}, timestamp ={2014-02-28}, url = {http://www.jstor.org/stable/10.1086/491491}, urldate = {2014-02-28}, } @Article{steele2006greekinflu, author = {Steele, John M.}, title = {Greek Influence on Babylonian Astronomy?}, journal = {Mediterranean Archaeology and Archaeometry}, year = {2006}, date = {2006-04-29}, issuetitle = {Special Issue}, volume = {6}, number = {3}, pages = {153--160}, issn = {1108-9628}, abstract = {Astronomy in Babylonia during the first millennium BC developed out of a long tradition of observ- ing and interpreting the sky into a science that was both observational and theoretical.

But where do these dates come from? Many different calendars were used in the ancient world. Some of these calendars were based upon observations or calculations of regular astronomical phenomena, such as the first sighting of the new moon crescent that defined the beginning of the month in many calendars, while others incorporated schematic simplifications of these phenomena, such as the 360-day year used in early Mesopotamian administrative practices in order to simplify accounting procedures. Historians frequently use handbooks and tables for converting dates in ancient calendars into the familiar BC/AD calendar that we use today. But very few historians understand how these tables have come about, or what assumptions have been made in their construction. The seven papers in this volume provide an answer to the question what do we know about the operation of calendars in the ancient world, and just as importantly how do we know it? Topics covered include the ancient and modern history of the Egyptian 365-day calendar, astronomical and administrative calendars in ancient Mesopotamia, and the development of astronomical calendars in ancient Greece.

The Journal Book of the Royal Society notes the occasion as follows: October 19, 1692. Halley read a paper, wherein he endeavoured to prove that the opposition of the Medium of the Æther to the Planets passing through it, did in time become sensible. That to reconcile this retardation of the Motions the Ancients and Moderns had been forced to alter the differences of the Meridians preposterously. That Babylon was made more westerly than it ought by near half an hour, both by Ptolomaeus, and those since him. And to reconcile the Observations made by Albategnius at Antioch, and Aracla on the Euphrates, they have been forced to make these places ten degrees more Easterly, than they ought, particularly Mr. Street has made Antioch of Syria in his Table of Longitudes, and Latitudes of places half an hour more Easterly than Babylon, whereas in truth it is about 40 minutes more Westerly. That this difference is found by 4 Eclipses observ’d about the year 900 and that by an Artist not capable of mistaking, that they all 4 agree in the same result and are noe other ways to be reconciled. Hence he argued, that the Motions being retarded must necessarily conclude a finall period and that the eternity of the World was hence to be demonstrated impossible. He was ordered to prosecute this Notion, and to publish a discourse about it.

We show that using multiples of the smallest difference between Φ values provides a con- venient way of calculating the change in Φ over long periods. We use this approach to ana- lyse the Φ and related numbers on the so-called Atypical Text C. We draw attention to our new reading of some of the Φ-values and related numbers. These new readings show that the Φ-values are closely connected to the other, related, numbers in the text, and they make it obvious that there is a connection between the Φ-numbers, the 14-month anomalistic period and the truncated version of Φ, which was used for finding Λ and G from Φ.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp}}, cross_ref = {selz2011theempiric}, edition = {1}, editora = {Wagensonner, Klaus}, editoratype = {collaborator}, file = {from academia (some scanning errors):steele2011_14monthin/steele2011_14monthin.pdf:PDF;from google books (worse resolution):steele2011_14monthin/steele2011_14monthina.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45}, shortbooktitle = {The Empirical Dimension of Ancient Near Eastern Studies}, sortkey = {Steele.J:2011_14MonthIntervals}, sorttitle = {014-Month Intervals of Lunar Velocity and Column Φ in Babylonian Astronomy: Atypical Text C}, timestamp = {2014-03-03}, } @Article{steele2011astronomya, author = {Steele, John M.}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp}}, journal = {Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union}, title = {Astronomy and culture in Late Babylonian Uruk}, year = {2011}, editor = {Ruggles, Clive L.

This volume contains the first detailed study of the use of ancient and medieval astronomical observations in order to investigate the moon’s secular acceleration-from its discovery by Edmond Halley to the establishment of the magnitude of the acceleration by Richard Dunthorne, Tobias Mayer and Jérôme Lalande in the 1740s and 1750s. The discovery of a gradual acceleration in the moon’s mean motion by Halley in the last decade of the seventeenth century sparked a revival of interest in reports of astronomical observations from antiquity. These observations provided the only means with which to study the moon’s “secular acceleration” as this newly-discovered acceleration became known. John M. Steele tells the story of how the secular acceleration of the moon was discovered, the reception of its discovery, and the first attempts to determine its size of the acceleration from historical data. Additionally, this study addresses the wider question of how ancient and medieval astronomy was viewed in the eighteenth century; particularly European perceptions of ancient Greek, Arabic, Babylonian, and Chinese astronomy. Making extensive use of previously unstudied manuscripts, this book explores how different astronomers used the same small body of preserved ancient observations in different ways in their work on the secular acceleration. Further, the broader context of the study of the moon’s secular acceleration, including its use in debates of biblical chronology and the use of astronomy in determining geographical longitude, are examined.}, bibmas = {1}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, series = {Sources and Studies in the History of Mathematics and Physical Sciences}, sortkey = {Steele.J:2012_AncientAstronomicalObservations}, timestamp={2014-05-11}, } @Inproceedings{steele2012livingwith, author = {Steele, John M.}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp} [without volume title] #and# Ossendrijver’s collection}, booktitle = {Living the Lunar Calendar}, editor = {Ben-Dov, Jonathan and Wayne Horowitz and Steele, John M.}, title = {Living with a Lunar Calendar in Mesopotamia and China}, year = {2012}, booksubtitle = {Time Text and Tradition}, eventtitle = {Living the Lunar Calendar: Time Text and Tradition}, publisher = {Oxbow Books Ltd}, isbn = {1842174819 ; 9781842174814}, pages = {373--387}, url = {https://www.academia.edu/2361106/Living_With_a_Lunar_Calendar_in_Mesopotamia_and_China}, urldate = {2013-11-23}, location = {Oxford}, bibmas = {1}, cross_ref = {ben2012livingthel}, eventdate = {2010-01-30/2010-02-01}, file = {steele2012livingwith.pdf:steele2012livingwith/steele2012livingwith.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45}, organization = {Bible Lands Museum Jerusalem}, sortkey = {Steele.J:2012_LivingwithLunar}, timestamp ={2013-11-23}, venue = {Bible Lands Museum Jerusalem}, } @SuppPeriodical{steele2012remarksont, author = {Steele, John M.}, title = {Remarks on the Sources for the Lunar Latitude Section of Atypical Astronomical Cuneiform Text E}, journal = {Nouvelles Assyriologiques Brèves et Utilitaires}, year = {2012}, number = {54}, issue = {fall}, month = sep, pages = {71--72}, issn = {0989-5671}, url = {http://sepoa.fr/?p=377}, urldate = {2013-11-23}, _month = {09}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp} [citing it twice, once as “AfO (in press)”] #and# Ossendrijver’s collection}, file = {version sepoa.fr (extract):steele2012remarksont/steele2012remarksont.pdf:PDF;version sepoa.fr (whole bulletin):steele2012remarksont/steele2012remarksonta.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, keywords = {BM 36874}, keywords_by_walker_or_gent = {true}, rescue_20140919 = {yes}, shortjournal = {NABU}, sortkey = {Steele.J:2012_Remarkssourceslunar}, timestamp = {2013-11-23}, walker_note = {[BM 36874]}, } @Unpublished{steele2012shadowleng, author = {Steele, John M.}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s collection}, date = {2012-08}, title = {Shadow-Length Schemes in Babylonian Astronomy}, year = {2012}, howpublished = {privately circulated draft}, month = aug, _month = {08}, bibmas = {1}, file = {steele2012shadowleng.pdf:steele2012shadowleng/steele2012shadowleng.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, related = {steele2013shadowleng}, sortkey = {Steele.J:2012_ShadowLengthSchemes}, timestamp ={2013-11-23}, } @Article{steele2013acompariso, author = {Steele, John M.}, bibmas_src = {\url{https://brown.academia.edu/JohnSteele}}, journal = {Journal of Astronomical History and Heritage}, title = {A Comparison of Astronomical Terminology, Methods and Concepts in China and Mesopotamia}, year = {2013}, subtitle = {With Some Comments on Claims for the Transmission of Mesopotamian Astronomy to China}, volume = {16}, number = {3}, pages = {250--260}, issn = {1440-2807}, url = {https://www.academia.edu/5075397/}, urldate = {2014-05-11}, abstract = {Mesopotamia and China have long traditions of astronomy and celestial divination, and share some similarities in their approach to these subjects.

At the heart of this schematic astronomy is the 360-day calendar in which the solstices and equinoxes are placed on day 15 of Months I, IV, VII and X. This schematic calendar is used in all of the shadow-length schemes, and I suggest that the use of the schematic calendar is typical of what I term “schematic astronomy” as opposed to the more broadly empirical astronomy of the observational and predictive texts such as the Astronomical Diaries and the Goal-Year Texts and the mathematical astronomy of the Ephemerides and associated Procedure Texts, both of which operate with the civil luni-solar calendar.}, bibmas = {1}, editora = {Saito, Ken}, editoratype = {compiler}, editorb = {Burnett, Charles and Hayashi, Takao and Kawahara, Hideki and Kusuba, Takanori and Miura, Nobuo and Suzuki, Takanori and Takahashi, Ken’ichi}, editorc = {Horiuchi, Annick and Jones, Alexander and Ragep, Jamil and Sesiano, Jacques}, file = {publication:steele2013shadowleng/steele2013shadowleng.pdf:PDF;draft:steele2013shadowleng/steele2013shadowlenga.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, keywords = {MUL.APIN 2.2, BM 45721, W 23273 = SpTU 4.172, BM 29371 = 98-11-14.4, BM 33564 = Rm 4.120}, location = {Kyoto}, publisher = {SCIAMVS}, related = {steele2012shadowleng}, shortjournal = {SCIAMVS}, sortkey = {Steele.J:2013_ShadowLengthSchemes}, timestamp={2014-05-11}, } @Inproceedings{steele2013theastrono, author = {Steele, John M.}, bibmas_src = {\url{https://brown.academia.edu/JohnSteele}}, booktitle = {The World of Berossos}, editor = {Haubold, Johannes and Lanfranchi, Giovanni B. and Rollinger, Robert and Steele, John M.}, title = {The “Astronomical Fragments” of Berossos in Context}, year = {2013}, booktitleaddon = {Proceedings of the 4th International Colloquium on The Ancient Near East between Classical and Ancient Oriental Traditions, Hatfield College, Durham 7th-9th July 2010}, eventtitle = {4th International Colloquium on “The Ancient Near East between Classical and Ancient Oriental Traditions”}, publisher = {Otto Harrassowitz}, isbn = {978-3-447-06728-7}, pages = {107--121}, url = {https://www.academia.edu/3694795/}, urldate = {2014-05-11}, location = {Wiesbaden}, number = {5}, series = {Classica et orientalia}, __pages = {99--113}, _month = {04}, bibmas = {1}, cross_ref = {haubold2013theworldof}, edition = {1}, eventdate = {2010-07-07/2010-07-09}, file = {steele2013theastrono.pdf:steele2013theastrono/steele2013theastrono.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45}, month = apr, sortkey = {Steele.J:2013_AstronomicalFragmentsBerossos}, sorttitle = {Astronomical Fragments of Berossos in Context, The}, timestamp={2014-05-11}, venue = {Durham}, } @Article{steele2015alatebabyl, author = {Steele, John M.}, title = {A Late Babylonian Compendium of Calendrical and Stellar Astrology}, journal = {Journal of Cuneiform Studies}, year = {2015}, language = {english}, volume = {67}, pages = {187--215}, issn = {00220256}, doi = {10.5615/jcunestud.67.2015.0187}, url = {http://www.jstor.org/stable/10.5615/jcunestud.67.2015.0187}, urldate = {2017-06-07}, abstract = {Abstract BM 36303+36326, BM 36628+36786+36817+37178+37197, and BM 36988 are three fragments of what was once a large, almost square tablet containing a compendium of astrological texts.

During that time they have proved of inestimable value to historians of astronomy. In two remarkably compact volumes, these tables give the celestial coordinates of the Sun, Moon and five bright planets (Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn) at 5- or 10-day intervals over the entire period from 601 B.C. ( = -600) to A.D. 1649. The present paper grew out of a query put to one of us (F.R.S.) some years ago by an eminent historian of science regarding the real accuracy of the tables. For the Sun and planets, positions are given to the nearest 0°·01. Is this precision artificial or not? At the time it was impossible to answer this query satisfactorily since no purely gravitational ephemeris was available for all the planets to provide an independent check. The recent production of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory Long Export Ephemeris (DE 102) now makes such an undertaking viable. In our investigation, we have tested the solar and planetary data given by Tuckerman against the JPL ephemeris (hereafter abbreviated to JPLE) on some 200 randomly selected dates over the entire interval from – 600 to + 1649. This paper is devoted to summarizing and discussing our results with the user of Tuckerman’s work particularly in mind.}, adsnote = {Provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System}, adsurl = {http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1981JHA....12..133S}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s notes}, file = {stephenson1981theaccurac.pdf:stephenson1981theaccurac/stephenson1981theaccurac.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, keywords = {/}, location = {London}, publisher = {Science History Publications Ltd}, shortjournal = {JHA}, sortkey = {Stephenson.F:1981_AccuracyTuckermansSolar}, sorttitle = {Accuracy of Tuckerman’s Solar and Planetary Tables, The}, timestamp = {2013-09-10}, } @Article{stephenson1982historical, author = {Stephenson, Francis Richard}, title = {Historical Eclipses}, journal = {Scientific American}, year = {1982}, subtitle = {They bear on such modern questions as whether the sun is shrinking or the day is getting longer}, volume = {247}, month = oct, pages = {154--163}, issn = {00368733}, doi = {10.1038/scientificamerican1082-170}, url = {http://www.pereplet.ru/gorm/atext/histecl.htm}, urldate = {2014-10-10}, _month = {10}, abstract = {A historical overview of solar and lunar eclipses is presented in relation to calculating the change in diameter of the sun and the rate of spin of the earth. A 1979 estimate of change in the sun’s diameter, based on daily observations since 1750, is calculated to be a 2 arcsec shrinkage, or about .1 percent per century. Based on solar eclipse timing in 1715 in England, it is concluded that the sun was 0.2 arcsec smaller in 1715 than it is now. Solar eclipse times, when compared with data on the transits of Mercury, reveal a .008 + or - .007 percentage decrease per century, but an 80 year oscillation period with a .025 percent amplitude may exist. To determine variations in the earth’s rotation, only eclipse data from ancient and medieval times are of value. Perhaps the most reliable eclipse data is from observations of the Babylonian eclipse of 136 B.C. Calculations based on this and several other observations reveal an average rate of day lengthening since ancient times to be 1.78 + or - .11 milliseconds per century.

Relatively few solar eclipse observations from Babylon are preserved and these will not be considered. Comparison of both sets of measurements (i) and (ii) with the results of modern computation provides useful information on the accuracy with which the astronomers of Babylon were able to measure intervals of time. Investigation of the durations of the various eclipse phases has the advantage over the intervals relative to sunrise and sunset that the calculated results are independent of changes in the Earth’s rate of rotation. However, the sunrise and sunset intervals are typically much longer and it is possible to make use of these measurements by making due allowance for long-term variations in the length of the day.

Results from previous analyses of lunar occultations in the period AD 1600-1955.5, and from high-precision data in AD 1955.5-1990, are included in the dataset considered in this paper.

These seemingly crude observations enable variations in the length of the day--produced by tides and other mechanisms--to be investigated in some detail over more than two millennia. The main attraction of the early data is the long time scale which they cover. They reveal long-term trends which cannot be discerned from the much more accurate telescopic observations. Useful historical records of eclipses originate from only four early cultures: Babylon, China, Europe and the Arab dominions. The observations fall into two main categories: timings of both solar and lunar eclipses and qualitative descriptions of total or near-total solar eclipses. Eclipse timings are due to astronomers, but chroniclers have contributed many detailed accounts of large solar eclipses. Analysis of these various observations reveals that over the past 2,500 years the average rate of lengthening of the day has been 1.7 milliseconds per century, significantly less than the tidal figure of 2.3.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp} #and# \url{http://www.astro.uni-bonn.de/~pbrosche/iaucomm41/news/icha_news_02.pdf}}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals}, institution = {Department of Physics, University of Durham, UK.}, lccn = {07031695}, location = {Durham}, publisher = {Science Reviews Ltd.}, sortkey = {Stephenson.F:2000_Historicaleclipsesand}, timestamp = {2014-10-10}, } @InProceedings{stephenson2002theearlies, author = {Stephenson, Francis Richard and Willis, David M.}, title = {The Earliest Datable Observation of the Aurora Borealis}, booktitle = {Under One Sky}, year = {2002}, editor = {Steele, John M. and Imhausen, Annette}, booksubtitle = {Astronomy and Mathematics in the Ancient Near East}, eventtitle = {Under One Sky: Astronomy \& Mathematics in the Ancient Near East}, eventdate = {2001-06-25/2001-06-27}, venue = {London}, series = {Alter Orient und Altes Testament: Veröffentlichungen zur Kultur und Geschichte des Alten Orients und des Alten Testaments}, number = {297}, organization = {British Museum}, publisher = {Ugarit-Verlag}, location = {Münster}, pages = {421--428}, addendum = {seealso \cite{stephenson2004theearlies}}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp} #and# \cite{gent2004cometsmete} [Meteors, Meteorites and the Aurora Borealis]}, cross_ref = {steele2002underonesk}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45}, keywords = {VAT 4596}, shortbooktitle = {AOAT 297}, shortseries = {AOAT}, sortkey = {Stephenson.F:2002_earliestdatableobservation}, sorttitle = {earliest datable observation of the Aurora Borealis, The}, timestamp = {2014-03-04}, walker_note = {[VAT 4596]}, } @Article{stephenson2003historical, author = {Stephenson, Francis Richard}, title = {Historical Eclipses and Earth’s Rotation}, journal = {Astronomy \& Geophysics}, year = {2003}, volume = {44}, number = {2}, pages = {2.22--2.27}, issn = {1468-4004}, doi = {10.1046/j.1468-4004.2003.44222.x}, url = {http://astrogeo.oxfordjournals.org/content/44/2/2.22.full}, urldate = {2013-09-30}, abstract = {The Earth, in its diurnal rotation, acts as a remarkably accurate timekeeper.

The Late Babylonian astronomical texts, discovered at the site of Babylon (32.5°N, 44.4°E) more than a century ago, contain what is probably the earliest reliable account of the aurora borealis. A clay tablet recording numerous celestial observations made by the official astronomers during the 37th year of King Nebuchadnezzar II (568/567 BC) describes an unusual “red glow” in the sky at night; the exact date of this observation corresponds to the night of 12/13 March in 567 BC. The most likely interpretation of the phenomenon is an auroral display. This event occurred several centuries before the first clearly identifiable observation of the aurora from elsewhere in the world, namely China in 193 BC. The Babylonian auroral observation is remarkable in the sense that it is one of a series of carefully recorded astronomical observations, for each of which the year, month and day are known precisely.

The importance of these omens was such that from the eighth or seventh until the first century, the scribes observed the heavens nightly and recorded the dates and locations of ominous phenomena of the moon and planets in relation to stars and constellations. The observations were arranged in monthly reports along with notable events and prices of agricultural commodities, the object being to find correlations between phenomena in the heavens and conditions on earth. These collections of omens and observations form the first empirical science of antiquity and were the basis of the first mathematical science, astronomy. For it was discovered that planetary phenomena, although irregular and sometimes concealed by bad weather, recur in limited periods within cycles in which they are repeated on nearly the same dates and in nearly the same locations. N. M. Swerdlow’s book is a study of the collection and observation of ominous celestial phenomena and of how intervals of time, locations by zodiacal sign, and cycles in which the phenomena recur were used to reduce them to purely arithmetical computation, thereby surmounting the greatest obstacle to observation, bad weather. The work marks a striking advance in our understanding of both the origin of scientific astronomy and the astrological divination through which the kingdoms of ancient Mesopotamia were governed.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp} #and# \cite{gent2004planetarym} [Observations and Theories of Planetary Motion] #and# \cite{ossendrijver2012babylonian}}, comment = {\cite{steele1999reviewswer,koch2001reviewswer,bernsen1999reviewswer,britton1998reviewswer}}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp}, sortkey = {Swerdlow.N:1998_BabylonianTheoryPlanets}, sorttitle = {Babylonian Theory of the Planets, The}, timestamp = {2014-02-13}, } @Article{swerdlow1999acronychal, author = {Swerdlow, Noel M.}, title = {Acronychal Risings in Babylonian Planetary Theory}, journal = {Archive for History of Exact Sciences}, year = {1999}, date = {1999-04}, language = {english}, volume = {54}, number = {1}, pages = {49--65}, issn = {0003-9519}, url = {http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2Fs004070050033}, urldate = {2013-09-30}, abstract = {The author attempts to reconstruct from the Bybylonian Astronomical Diaries the method of calculation used by Babylonian astronomers for predicting the acronychal risings (date when a celestial body rises exactly at the time of sunset) of the superior planets.

Both ancient sources and modern research agree that astronomy and celestial divination arose in Babylon. Only in the late nineteenth century, however, did scholars begin to identify and decipher the original Babylonian sources, and the process of understanding those sources has been long and difficult. This volume presents recent work on Babylonian celestial divination and on the Greek inheritors of the Babylonian tradition. Both philological and mathematical work are included. The essays shed new light on all of the known textual sources, including the omen series Enuma Anu Enlil, which contains omens from as far back as the early second or even third millennium, and the earliest personal horoscopes, from about 400 B.C., as well as the Astronomical Diaries, ephemerides, and other observational and mathematical texts. One essay concerns astronomical papyri that confirm the extensive transmission of Babylonian methods into Greek; a study of Ptolemy’s lunar theory suggests that Ptolemy relied more on his own observations than previously thought; and an analysis of Theon’s commentary on Ptolemy’s Handy Tables shows that Theon explicated their meaning both conscientiously and competently.

In each society, maps served as critical economic, political, and personal tools, but there was little consistency in how and why they were made. Much like today, maps in antiquity meant very different things to different people. Ancient Perspectives presents an ambitious, fresh overview of cartography and its uses. The seven chapters range from broad-based analyses of mapping in Mesopotamia and Egypt to a close focus on Ptolemy’s ideas for drawing a world map based on the theories of his Greek predecessors at Alexandria. The remarkable accuracy of Mesopotamian city-plans is revealed, as is the creation of maps by Romans to support the proud claim that their emperor’s rule was global in its reach. By probing the instruments and techniques of both Greek and Roman surveyors, one chapter seeks to uncover how their extraordinary planning of roads, aqueducts, and tunnels was achieved. Even though none of these civilizations devised the means to measure time or distance with precision, they still conceptualized their surroundings, natural and man-made, near and far, and felt the urge to record them by inventive means that this absorbing volume reinterprets and compares.}, alturl = {\url{http://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/A/bo13107150.html}}, bibmas = {1}, contents = {Introduction by Richard J.

Anschließend betrachtet sie die Zeugnisse der Mondgottverehrung in den verschiedenen Kulturen Syrien-Palästinas des 1.

Many early civilizations produced astronomical texts, and several cultures that left no written records left monuments and artifacts – ranging from rock paintings to Stonehenge – that show a clear interest in astronomy. Civilizations in China, Mesopotamia, India, and Greece had highly developed astronomies, and the astronomy of the Mayas was by no means negligible. Greek astronomy, as developed by medieval Arab philosophers, evolved into the astronomy of Copernicus. This displaced the Earth from the stationary central position that almost all earlier astronomies had assumed.

It was discovered in the first half of this century in Room 1 3 of the first shrine of the temple of Hatra. At present the slab is in the Mosul Museum of Iraq. The temple of Hatra is 37 miles west-northwest of the ancient city of Assur and 93 miles southwest of the present city of Mosul. The slab, called the Cerberus Slab of Hatra has been interpreted as a purely religious iconography of the Parthian era, about the first or second century AD, by Harold Ingholt (1954). The slab contains two important features known as semeions. (The term semeion was introduced by Lucian of Samosate, an Assyrian-Arameian scholar, about the middle of the second century AD.) The semeion on the left side of the slab has seven emblems representing the seven planets known at that time stacked on a pole. A smaller semeion is placed in the hand of the woman sitting in the chair on the right side of the slab. This semeion represents only six planets. It is proposed that the two semeion represent two important planetary alignments, and that features of the slab represent constellations with bright stars to indicate the coordinates of the planetary alignments. With the aid of a computer at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory of the California Institute of Technology, we have determined the date of the planetary alignments to which the slab may refer. Thus it is believed that the slab of Hatra was carved about the middle of the first century AD and that it represents two important astronomical events which were incorporated into the astral religion of the Parthian era.}, adsnote = {Provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System}, adsurl = {http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1983QJRAS..24...14T}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker1993bibliograp,walker2013bibliograp}}, file = {tuman1983thecerberu.pdf:tuman1983thecerberu/tuman1983thecerberu.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, keywords = {Cerberus Slab of Hatra}, shortjournal = {QJRAS}, sortkey = {Tuman.V:1983_CerberusSlabHatra}, sorttitle = {Cerberus Slab of Hatra may Represent Important Astronomical Events, The}, timestamp = {2014-10-10}, } @Article{tuman1984thetombofa, author = {Tuman, Vladimir S.}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker1993bibliograp,walker2013bibliograp}}, journal = {Archaeoastronomy}, title = {The Tomb of Antiochus Revisited}, year = {1984}, subtitle = {Planetary Alignments and the Deification of the King}, journalsubtitle = {The Journal of the Center for Archaeoastronomy}, volume = {7}, pages = {56--57}, issn = {0190-9940}, url = {http://search.proquest.com/docview/1294904083}, urldate = {2013-06-26}, abstract = {The tomb of the King Antiochus of Commagene discussed in this paper was explored and investigated by Humann, Puchstein and Luschan in 1882-83. They reported their results in great detail in Reisen in Kleinasien und Nordsyrien (Berlin 1890). The tomb of King Antiochus is adorned with colossal monuments of the Parthian deities sitting on the eastern terrace watching the eastern horizon. The same deities are sitting also on the western terrace watching the western horizon. The King is sitting among these gods. There are also five slabs where the King is visiting with four different deities in the first four slabs. The fifth is the Lion’s slab representing the constellation of Leo with the crescent of the Moon on the Lion’s chest; and three planets, Jupiter, Mars and Mercury together with their names are depcited on its back. Both Puchstein, et al. (1890) and Neugebauer and Van Horsen (1959) ignored all the colossal monuments fo deities watching the eastern and western horizon and the first four slabs. These investigators assumed actual conjunction of the three planets in the constellation of Leo, so that slab represented a form of horoscope. Both interpretations face difficulties; however, in particular, that the calculated order and the position of the planets are in conflict with what has been depicted on the slab. The present study proposes a planetary alignment comprised of Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Jupiter being in opposition to the constellation of Leo, while the Moon and Saturn being in real conjunction with the constellation of Leo. Such an alignment took place on February 4-5, 55 B.C. extending from the bright star of Regulus in Leo, towards the bright star Fomalhaut, alpha. PsA. This alignment is again recorded some hundred years later on the slab of Hatra, investigated by the author in 1983. The date February 4-5, 55 B.C. is in excelrent agreement with the birthday of King Antiochus, the Audynaios 16 (in accordance with the calendar from Antioch). Also present on the Lion slab are two important Mithraic features, namely upward and downward torches and an ear of corn. A tentative interpretation of these Mithraic features are offered here. Within the astral religion an alignment of this sort would reflect a meeting of the gods. The fact that deities are sitting together at eastern and western terraces indicates that concept. In effect, the gods have consented to deify King Antiochus on his birthday Audynaios 16, 55 B.C., when that planetary alignment took place}, bibmas = {1}, file = {tuman1984thetombofa.pdf:tuman1984thetombofa/tuman1984thetombofa.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, keywords = {/}, location = {College Park, Md.}, publisher = {Center for Archaeoastronomy, University of Maryland}, sortkey = {Tuman.V:1984_TombAntiochusRevisited}, sorttitle = {Tomb of Antiochus Revisited, The}, timestamp ={2013-06-26}, } @Article{tuman1986immortalit, author = {Tuman, Vladimir S. and Cullens, Lynn}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker1993bibliograp,walker2013bibliograp} #and# \cite{gent2004astralmyth} [Astronomical Symbols on Entitlement Narûs (kudurru’s)] #and# Griffith Observer Cumulative Index (\url{http://www.griffithobs.org/observer.html})}, journal = {Griffith Observer}, title = {Immortality Etched in Stone}, year = {1986}, subtitle = {Dating Ancient Mesopotamian Stones from Astronomical Symbols}, volume = {50}, number = {1}, month = jan, pages = {10--19}, _month = {01}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_note = {Title, authors, year and month checked with Griffith Observer Cumulative Index, cf. \url{http://www.griffithobs.org/observer.html}}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals}, keywords = {BM 90858}, sortkey = {Tuman.V:1986_ImmortalityEtchedin}, timestamp ={2013-06-26}, walker_note = {[BM 90858]}, } @InProceedings{tuman1987astrochron, author = {Tuman, Vladimir S.}, title = {Astrochronology versus Brinkman’s Historical Chronology}, booktitle = {XXXIV.

It covers the history, significance, sources, methods of computation, and use of the data presented in The Astronomical Almanac. Because The Astronomical Almanac prints primarily positional data, this book goes into great detail on techniques to get astronomical positions. The book, however, is not a basic textbook on spherical, dynamical, or positional astronomy. It supplements such textbooks because it contains detailed explanations and current methods of application. [..] The third edition, available since mid-2012, is a complete revision of the 1992 book; the title remains the same. Each chapter was updated; several of them completely re-written. Along with subjects covered in the previous two editions, it also contains descriptions of the major advancements in positional astronomy over the last 20 years, including: the ICRS replacing the FK5 system; the new precession and nutation theories; and a new positional paradigm that is no longer tied to the ecliptic and equinox. Although most of the authors are from either the USNO or HMNAO, other subject-matter experts contributed. ___ Although this book is not a publication of HM Nautical Almanac Office, it does contain significant contributions made by staff of this office both past and present. This book provides an explanation of the astronomical principles and methods of computation used in The Astronomical Almanac. It describes the relevant terminology, notation and concepts of computational astronomy and provides rigorous definitions and formulae. The revised third edition was published in Autumn 2012. Chapters were written by both former and current members of the United States Naval Observatory and HM Nautical Almanac Office as well as members of organisations such as the U.S. Geological Survey, the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Lohrmann Observatory, the Observatoire de Paris and the University of London. The book has been edited by Sean Urban, Chief of the U.S. Nautical Almanac Office, and Dr. P.

Published: 1940 -- In seinen “Untersuchungen zur antiken Astronomie III” (Quell. Stud. Geschichte Math., Astron., Phys. B 4 (1938), 193-346; F.d.M. 64 I, 8) sagte O. Neugebauer, weder aus griechischen noch aus keilschriftlichen Quellen sei ihm etwas darüber bekannt, dass die Babylonier den sogenannten Saros (223 Mondmonate = 242 Drachenmonate) zu Finsternisvorhersagen benutzten. Sie hätten vielmehr die Tabulierung der Mondbreite nach einer “linearen Zackenfunktion” zugrunde gelegt. Verf. macht hiergegen geltend, dass die Bildung des Exelingmos, d. i. des in den Tagen ganzzahligen dreifachen Saros, nur für Vorhersagen Sinn gehabt habe, und bringt eine Anzahl von Stellen aus den keilschriftlichen Quellen bei, aus denen er auf die Verwendung des Saros oder kürzerer Perioden derselben Art zu Vorhersagen schliesst, insbesondere mit Schaumberger des Zyklus von 47 Mondmonaten. Ferner berichtigt er Neugebauer dahin, dass den Zahlen des “Systems II” ein genaueres Verhältnis als der Saros zugrunde liegt. -- Wenn man Neugebauers Auffassung der Wissenschaftlichkeit des Vorgehens der Babylonier folgt, so betrachtet Ref. als entscheidenden Punkt die Frage, aus welchen Beobachtungen sie das für die Periodenlänge der Zackenfunktion benötigte Verhältnis d:m der Dauer des Drachenmonats zu der des Mondmonats gewannen. Neugebauer sagt (S. 245), dass man “etwa” von einer maximalen Breite bei Vollmond bis zu einer Wiederkehr dieser Koinzidenz die Mond- und die Drachenmonate ausgezählt habe. Er müsste aber nachweisen, dass die mit Mondparallaxe behaftete und wegen der langsamen Änderung der Breite in der Nähe ihres Maximums unscharfe Erfassung einer derartigen Himmelserscheinung das gesuchte Verhältnis in einem annehmbaren Zeitraum ebenso genau liefert wie Finsternisse, insbesondere Mondfinsternisse. Wird ein solcher Nachweis nicht geführt, und werden ferner keine Anzeichen dafür aufgewiesen, dass derartige Wiederkehren der Breite frühzeitig und hinreichend genau beobachtet und aufgezeichnet wurden, so sieht Ref. für Neugebauer nur die Annahme übrig, dass die Babylonier zur Bestimmung von d:m wie Ptolemäus die Mond- und Drachenmonate zwischen Finsternissen auszählten. So hätten Vorläufer des Saros entdeckt und zu (nicht immer eintreffenden) Voraussagen benutzt werden können, auch schon bevor man die Breite als lineare Zackenfunktion tabulierte. Zur Entdeckung des Saros selbst, d:m=223:242, gehörte schon längere Beobachtung gleichartiger Folgen gleichartig verlaufender Mondfinsternisse bei Verständnis für mögliche örtliche Unsichtbarkeit. -- Natürlicher als Neugebauers grundsätzliche Einstellung erscheint dem Ref. diejenige von A. Pannekoek in der Arbeit: “Some remarks on the moon’s diameter and the eclipse tables in Babylonian astronomy” (Eudemus 1 (1941), 9-22; F.d.M. 67).

Recently Otto NEUGEBAUER, in his most valuable survey of the History of Ancient Astronomy 1) raised the question, whether the origin of astronomy is to be found in astrology. He denies it, and affirms on the contrary that “calendaric problems directed the first steps of astronomy”. I should prefer to say that both early astronomy and early astrology arise from one common root, viz. the conviction that the motions of the great Gods: Sun, Moon and Planets, are of the greatest importance for human life, and hence must be stud·;ed most carefully. The Old-Babylonian point of view may be expressed as follows .. Just as the \vhole civil life depends on the regular succession of days, months and years, and hence on the course of Sun and Moon, just so the fate of kingdoms, peace and war, wealth and destru.ction depend on the Gods, who reside in Heaven, and the events at the firmament are tokens of their wilL Hence the eagerness with which the heavenly phenomena were observed, recorded and interpreted: the risings and settings of Venus just as well as the annual risings of the fixed stars and eclipses of sun and moon. ...}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_prnt = {yes!}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker1993bibliograp,walker2013bibliograp} #and# \cite{gent2004astronomic} [The Venus Tablets of Ammizaduga]}, file = {Scissored (1 page per sheet) and adobe-optimized:waerden1948babylonia1/waerden1948babylonia1.pdf:PDF;Original scan (2 pages per sheet):waerden1948babylonia1/waerden1948babylonia1a.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, keywords = {EAE 63 = Venus tablet}, location = {Leiden}, shortjournal = {JEOL}, sortkey = {Waerden.B:1948_BabylonianAstronomy1}, sortname = {Waerden, Bartel}, sorttitle = {Babylonian Astronomy 1}, timestamp = {2014-03-01}, } @Article{waerden1949babylonia2, author = {van der Waerden, Bartel Léendert}, title = {Babylonian Astronomy II}, journal = {Journal of Near Eastern Studies}, year = {1949}, date = {1949-01}, subtitle = {The Thirty-Six Stars}, language = {english}, volume = {8}, number = {1}, pages = {6--26}, issn = {00222968}, addendum = {seealso \cite{waerden1948babylonia1,waerden1951babylonia3}}, url = {http://www.jstor.org/stable/542436}, urldate = {2014-03-01}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker1993bibliograp,walker2013bibliograp} #and# \cite{gent2004fixedstars} [The Astronomical Compendium MUL.APIN] }, copyright = {Copyright © 1949 The University of Chicago Press}, file = {waerden1949babylonia2.pdf:waerden1949babylonia2/waerden1949babylonia2.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, keywords = {HS 229, Astrolabe B, MUL.APIN}, location = {Chicago}, publisher = {University of Chicago Press}, shortjournal = {JNES}, sortkey = {Waerden.B:1949_BabylonianAstronomy2}, sortname = {Waerden, Bartel}, sorttitle = {Babylonian Astronomy 2}, timestamp = {2014-03-01}, } @Review{waerden1949reviewpark, author = {van der Waerden, Bartel Léendert}, bibmas_src = {\cite{gent2004astronomic} [Other Reports and General Discussions]}, journal = {Bibliotheca Orientalia}, title = {Babylonian Chronology, 626 B.

The achievements of European astronomers from prehistoric times to the Renaissance are linked with those of ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia, India and the Islamic world.

Virolleaud einen kurzen Text aus Ugarit, den er als astrologischen( ?) Text bezeichnete. Im Bulletin of the School of Oriental and African Studies 33 (1970), S. 467-489, hat J. F. A. Sawyer eine neue Interpretation gegeben; er übersetzt: “The day of the new Moon in the month of ljiyar was put to shame. The Sun went down (in the daytime) with Rashap in attendance. (This means that) the overlord will be attacked by his vassals”. Sawyer bezieht diesen Bericht auf eine Sonnenfinsternis, und der Astronom F. R. Stephenson (vgl. auch Nature, Vol. 228, 14. Nov. 1970, S. 95lf.) hat ihm errechnet, daß es sich um die Sonnenfinsternis vom 3. Mai 1375 v. Chr. handle. Mit “Rashap” sei eigentlich der Planet Mars gemeint, er war jedoch damals nicht sichtbar; es handle sich vielleicht um eine Verwechslung mit einem der “roten” Sterne Aldebaran und Capella, die nahe der verdunkelten Sonne standen. Es ist möglich, daß diese Interpretation des Textes aus Ugarit zutrifft. Dabei darf jedoch nicht vergessen werden, daß in der babylonisch-assyrischen Astrologie nicht nur astronomische, sondern auch atmosphärische Verfinsterungen der Sonne als “Sonnen-Finsternisse” gelten und daß sich der Text aus Ugarit auch auf eine atmosphärische Verfinsterung beziehen kann.}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_note = {Weidner’s contribution on \cite{virolleaud1951lesnouvell}; solar eclipse in Ugarit?; the whole section “Ausgrabungen und Forschungsreisen” contains contributions also by {Müller, Walter W. and Schmidt, J. and Strommenger, Eva and Finet, A. and Stucky, Rolf A. and Hachmann, Rolf and Metzger, Martin and Ciasca, Antonia and Damerji, M. and Hrouda, B. and Margueron, Jean and Parrot, André and Bittel, Kurt and Orthmann, W. and Hirsch, Hans and Schaeffer, Claude F.-A. and Schachermeyr, Fritz and Wilhelm, G. and Bietak, Manfred and Arnold, Dieter}}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp}}, copyright = {Copyright © 1973 Archiv für Orientforschung (AfO)/Institut für Orientalistik}, file = {extracted article:weidner1973ugarit/weidner1973ugarit.pdf:PDF;whole parent section:weidner1973ugarit/weidner1973ugarita.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45, inperiodicals, withPDF}, jstor_articletype = {research-article}, jstor_formatteddate = {1973}, keywords = {Ras Shamra}, location = {Vienna}, publisher = {Archiv für Orientforschung (AfO)/Institut für Orientalistik}, shortjournal = {AfO}, sortkey = {Weidner.E:1973_Ugarit}, timestamp = {2014-10-10}, } @Book{weiher1988spaetbaby3, author = {von Weiher, Egbert}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp} #and# Ossendrijver’s notes}, title = {Spätbabylonische Texte aus Uruk, Teil 3}, year = {1988}, maintitle = {Spätbabylonische Texte aus Uruk}, volume = {3}, publisher = {Gebr.

The zodiac is, however, but a part of a much larger system of star-lore that could reveal so much about ancient man and his beliefs. Knowledge of this lore could provide many profound insights into how early civilisations viewed the gods, the nature of the universe and the destiny of mankind. This book is the first of its kind, specifically written for the layman, to explore the constellations and star-lore of ancient Babylonia. It presents the idea that the constellation figures as a whole amount to a “pictorial calendar” that integrates various seasonal festivals – concerned with the mythic life-cycle of the sun, the farming and herding year, the institution of kingship and various rites directed towards the dead – into an elegant system that ultimately represents an archaic image of time itself. The introductory sections describe the structure of the archaic cosmos, and then go on to give an overview of the whole star-map. The main body of the book is composed of an A-Z gazette, which explores the names, appearances and associated lore of each star and constellation in greater detail.

Significance was attached to their occurrence from very early on in recorded history, and their prediction and description became a focus for the practitioners of the astral sciences in ancient cultures. This dissertation seeks to determine the ways in which theoretical knowledge about eclipses was originated, developed, preserved, and transmitted. The ability to be able to predict eclipses successfully was reached through the realization of many profound scientific discoveries and the systematization of more general techniques fundamental to astronomy: these included measurement of time, rates for various celestial motions, calculations of the sizes and distances of the luminaries, estimates for the angles between the orbits, parallax, as well as advances in the mathematical sciences such as trigonometry, spherical geometry, to name a few. Such a capability was not accomplished through the efforts of any one scientific culture, but it was to be a cumulative endeavor. It was not a collaboration simultaneous in time, but instead the accomplishments of one culture were communicated to an inheritor culture, which would assimilate these achievements and use them to broaden and develop their own understanding of the phenomena. The numerical predictive patterns of the Mesopotamian practitioners were advanced by the addition of geometrical considerations that were developed by the Greeks. The attention to iterative and other computational techniques in India assisted the Arabic scholars in further considering and refining techniques and parameters that had been established in Greece. In this context, this study will trace such a development using primary source material.}, adscomment = {Publication Number: : AAT 3179451; Advisor: Pingree, David E.}, adsnote = {Provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System}, adsurl = {http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2005PhDT........26W}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{ossendrijver2012babylonian}}, file = {williams2005eclipsethe.pdf:williams2005eclipsethe/williams2005eclipsethe.pdf:PDF}, publisher = {UMI Dissertation Services}, school = {Brown University}, series = {ProQuest Dissertations and Theses}, sortkey = {Williams.C:2005_EclipseTheoryin}, timestamp = {2015-06-01}, } @InCollection{williams2008somedetail, author = {Clemency Williams}, title = {Some Details on the Transmission of Astral Omens in Antiquity}, booktitle = {From the Banks of the Euphrates}, year = {2008}, editor = {Micah Ross}, booksubtitle = {Studies in Honor of Alice Louise Slotsky}, publisher = {Eisenbrauns}, location = {Winona Lake, IN}, isbn = {1575061449}, pages = {293--314}, url = {http://books.google.de/books?id=edVOGJKa7XUC&pg=PA319&lpg=PP1&hl=de}, urldate = {2014-03-07}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {\cite{walker2013bibliograp}}, cross_ref = {ross2008fsslotsky}, file = {williams2008somedetail.pdf:williams2008somedetail/williams2008somedetail.pdf:PDF}, groups = {NOT_BCMT_and_NOT_units&measures, rather_astro, temp, articles, after45}, shortbooktitle = {Fs Slotsky}, sortkey = {Williams.C:2008_detailstransmission}, sorttitle = {details on the transmission of astral omens in antiquity, Some}, timestamp = {2014-03-07}, } @Book{winckler1892keilinschr, author = {Winckler, Hugo}, title = {Keilinschriftliches Textbuch zum alten Testament}, year = {1892}, publisher = {Verlag von Eduard Pfeiffer}, location = {Leipzig}, addendum = {Revised editions appeared in 1903 \& 1909}, url = {http://books.google.com/books?id=xt4UAAAAYAAJ}, urldate = {2014-03-14}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_note = {[\#trigger] Author promoted Pan-babylonism (resp. “Babel-Bibel”), an highly speculative and reductionist pseudo-science, afflicted with german antisemitism.

Only the eclipse of the 1st of April 2470 BC meets this condition, as it was only Venus that was seen at that eclipse. The second selection rule was also naturally fulfilled, as Babel happened to be on the border of the totality zone hence no corona was seen, however all the time the moon glistened as Baily’s beads.

Schemes known as “rising time schemes” were used to give lengths of the celestial equator corresponding to each of the twelve zodiacal signs which make up the ecliptic. This book investigates the earliest known examples of these schemes which come from Babylonia and date to the mid to late first millennium BC. Making an important contribution to our knowledge of astronomy in the ancient world, this volume includes editions and translations of all of the known Babylonian rising time texts, including several texts that are identified for the first time. Through a close examination of the preserved texts it has been possible to reconstruct the complete Babylonian rising time scheme. This reconstruction is unprecedented in its completeness, and it is also now possible to situate the scheme within a genre of Babylonian astronomy known as schematic astronomy which presents theoretical descriptions of the astronomical phenomena. The unique discoveries and fresh explorations in this book will be of interest to historians of ancient astronomy, scholars of Babylonian history and those investigating the origins of scientific thought. +Argues for a new understanding of the role of schematic astronomy within Babylonian scientific thoughtPresents new translations of Babylonian astronomical cuneiform texts +Publishes several newly identified texts with examination of their significance to the history of science}, affiliation = {Department of Egyptology and Assyriology, Brown University, Providence, Rhode Island, USA}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s notes}, file = {steele2017risingtime.pdf:steele2017risingtime/steele2017risingtime.pdf:PDF;steele2017risingtime.epub:steele2017risingtime/steele2017risingtime.epub:ePUB}, issn = {2211-4564}, sortkey = {Steele.J:2017_RisingTimeSchemes}, timestamp = {2017-06-01}, } @Collection{csabai2014fsvargyas, editor = {Zoltán Csabai}, title = {Studies in Economic and Social History of the Ancient Near East in Memory of Péter Vargyas}, year = {2014}, editora = {redactor and Tibor Grüll}, series = {Ancient Near Eastern and Mediterranean Studies}, number = {2}, publisher = {Department of Ancient History, The University of Pécs l’harmattan, budapest}, location = {Budapest}, isbn = {9789632367958 ; 9632367952}, affiliation = {department of ancient history, the university of pécs, hungary – l’harmattan hungary}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s notes}, oclc = {892949379}, shorttitle = {Fs Vargyas}, sortkey = {Csabai.Z:2014_StudiesinEconomic}, timestamp = {2017-06-01}, } @InCollection{hunger2014alatebabyl, author = {Hunger, Hermann}, title = {A Late Babylonian Astrological Tablet}, booktitle = {Studies in Economic and Social History of the Ancient Near East in Memory of Péter Vargyas}, year = {2014}, editor = {Zoltán Csabai}, editora = {redactor and Tibor Grüll}, series = {Ancient Near Eastern and Mediterranean Studies}, number = {2}, publisher = {Department of Ancient History, The University of Pécs l’harmattan, budapest}, location = {Budapest}, isbn = {9789632367958 ; 9632367952}, pages = {657--671}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s notes}, cross_ref = {csabai2014fsvargyas}, editoraffiliation = {department of ancient history, the university of pécs, hungary – l’harmattan hungary}, oclc = {892949379}, shortbooktitle = {Fs Vargyas}, sortkey = {Hunger.H:2014_LateBabylonianAstrologicalTablet}, sorttitle = {Late Babylonian Astrological Tablet}, timestamp = {2017-06-01}, } @InProceedings{ziegler2013notesonthe, author = {Dominique Charpin and Nele Ziegler}, title = {Notes on the Neo-Assyrian Siege-Shield and Chariot}, booktitle = {Time and History in the Ancient Near East}, year = {2013}, editor = {Lluis Feliu and J.

The Babylonians observed and recorded celestial events each night for over six centuries during the first millennium BC. A number of cuneiform tablets containing these astronomical diaries have been recovered and were later translated by Abraham Sachs and Hermann Hunger. The majority of diary entries track the position of the Moon with reference to 31 “normal stars,” all within 10 degrees of the ecliptic. Entries specify the moon as being “above,” “below,” “in front of,” or “behind” a second body by a specified distance in “cubits.” The extant tablets fail to adequately define the reference system used for the topographical relations. Computer-generated star-charts that are specific for the date and location of selected diary entries show a general interdependence between the topographical relations and the celestial course of the Sun, Moon, and planets. John Steele has discussed the Babylonians as having considered the Moon and planets to move through the zodiac within their own individual bands.

This paper concludes that the intercalation rules are based on the assumption of a 28-day ideal sidereal month. These rules work with a triennial cycle of intercalating one additional month every third lunar year. Two similar intercalation schemes from other compositions, likewise dating from the beginning of the first millenium BCE, are known: a seventh- century intercalation scheme from Babylonia that also assumes a 28-day ideal sidereal month and an intercalation scheme from an unpublished astronomical commentary that, like the scheme in MUL.APIN, uses a triennial cycle.

Yet numerous other Greek constellations and asterisms do not correspond to Mesopotamian prototypes, and simultaneously display bizarre or incongruous features. This is especially apparent in Pegasus, a winged Horse severed at the navel; Crater, the “Wine-Bowl” stationed upon the back of Hydra, the “Water-Snake”; Cancer, a “Crab” that carries a “Manger” and “Donkeys” upon its shell; and Argo, the “Swift” Ship that sails backwards through the night sky without a prow. Because the aforementioned star-figures cannot be traced to Mesopotamian originals most historians of astronomy have assumed they are either indigenous Greek inventions or the creations of seafaring civilization that had direct contact with Greece. This article presents seminal research that offers a more elegant possibility, namely, that the origin of the aforementioned constellations and asterisms was indeed Mesopotamia, and can be traced to arcane precepts that informed the astronomers of that land. Cuneiform texts confirm that Mesopotamian astronomers were literally “writers” who envisioned the starry sky as “heavenly writing” that divulged inviolable truth through the medium of wordplay. In Mesopotamia the Pegasus Square was known as the “Field,” and puns encrypted in its cuneiform spellings divulged that the Field be “changed into” a “flying horse severed at the navel”; wordplay in Hydra’s cuneiform title disclosed that a “wine-bowl” be “placed upon the back of the “water-snake”; double entendre in Cancer’s cuneiform appellative imparted that a “manger” and “two donkeys” be “placed between the shoulders of the crab”; and punning in the Mesopotamian prototype for Argo divulged that these stars were a “divine ship named ’Swift’” which had its “prow cut off” and sailed “backward” through the southern sky. Circumstantial evidence implies that the Mesopotamian perception of the stars as a divine “text” that divulged enlightenment via puns had been transmitted directly to the Hellenic world at the inception of Greek alphabetic writing in the mid-eighth century BC. And it was this Mesopotamian celestial wisdom that inspired Greek astronomer-poets to reconfigure the preceding star-figures into the irrational images described by the puns.}, affiliation = {Brigham Young University, Provo, Utah, USA; e-mail: jjmchugh72164@comcast.net}, bibmas = {1}, bibmas_src = {Ossendrijver’s notes}, file = {mchugh2016howcuneifo.pdf:mchugh2016howcuneifo/mchugh2016howcuneifo.pdf:PDF}, sortkey = {McHugh.J:2016_HowCuneiformPuns}, timestamp = {2017-06-01}, } @Article{nadali2016theskyfrom, author = {Davide Nadali and Andrea Polcaro}, title = {The Sky from the High Terrace}, journal = {Mediterranean Archaeology and Archaeometry}, year = {2016}, subtitle = {Study on the Orientation of the Ziqqurat in Ancient Mesopotamia}, editor = {Hernandez, Jean Paul and González-García, A.

From a modern, Western perspective, a world not conceived somehow within the framework of physical nature is difficult—if not impossible—to imagine.

It is demonstrated that the ancient scholars failed in their attempts to determine geographical longitude by astronomical means, and that even certain Syriac texts which specify how to determine longitude using a planispheric astrolabe were unable to resolve this scientific challenge.}, alturl = {http://www.topoi.org/publication/38302/}, bibmas = {1}, editortype = {founder}, file = {grasshoff2016longitude.pdf:grasshoff2016longitude/grasshoff2016longitude.pdf:PDF}, publisher = {Berlin: Exzellenzcluster 264 Topoi}, sortkey = {Grasshoff.G:2016_Longitude}, timestamp = {2017-06-02}, } @Article{verderame2016pleiadesin, author = {Verderame, Lorenzo}, title = {Pleiades in Ancient Mesopotamia}, journal = {Mediterranean Archaeology and Archaeometry}, year = {2016}, editor = {Hernandez, Jean Paul and González-García, A.

According to cuneiform sources, the Pleiades are among the most important stars. They are simply known in Sumerian as ―the Stars‖ (MUL.MUL), while their Akkadian name, ―the Bristle‖ (zappu), links them to the imagery and the cultural context of the ―Bull of Heaven‖ constellation (Taurus), to which they belong. Pleiades are frequently depicted as seven dots or seven stars, and identified on a mythological level with groups of seven divine beings. In fact, the Sumerian ideogram for ―seven‖ is used as an alternative name for the Pleiades. In particular they show a close relation to a group of demons, called the Seven (Sebēttu), that, according to an etiological myth, causes the eclipse of the moon. The relation of the Pleiades to the war and death sphere is strengthened by their association with the Netherworld god Nergal/Erra, as well as their identification with the god’s planet (Mars). Finally, the Pleiades are among the few celestial bodies that receive a cult, and specific prayers are dedicated to them. From the sources it emerges that the Pleiades are mainly related to the movement of the Moon, and it is worth noting that the list of constellations of the ecliptic begins precisely with the Pleiades. Furthermore, the Pleiades play an important part in the calendrical reckoning, a role that is clearly stated in almanacs as the MUL.APIN, as well as in the intercalation scheme based on the conjunction of the Moon and the Pleiades.}, affiliation = {”Sapienza” Università di Roma}, bibmas = {1}, cross_ref = {hernandez2016medarcharc}, eventdate = {2015-09}, eventtitle = {Société Européenne pour l’Astronomie dans la Culture (SEAC 2015) Conference – Astronomy in Past and Present Cultures}, file = {verderame2016pleiadesin.pdf:verderame2016pleiadesin/verderame2016pleiadesin.pdf:PDF}, shortjournal = {MAA}, sortkey = {Verderame.L:2016_Pleiades}, timestamp = {2017-06-01}, venue = {Roma}, } @Article{pizzimenti2016thekudurru, author = {Pizzimenti, Sara}, title = {The Kudurrus and the Sky}, journal = {Mediterranean Archaeology and Archaeometry}, year = {2016}, subtitle = {Analysis and Interpretation of the Dog-Scorpion-Lamp Astral Pattern as Represented in Kassite Kudurrus Reliefs}, editor = {Hernandez, Jean Paul and González-García, A.

The stars have been synonymous with immortality with their continuous and cyclical presence. Because of their immortality stars and planets were considered heavenly images of gods. With the rise of the Kassite dynasty, in the second half of the 2nd millennium BC, a transformation happened in the religious thought and in the representation of the gods. A gradual but continuous transformation in their depiction could be noticed, with the introduction of the symbolic representation that substituted the anthropomorphic one. Symbolic divine representations are the main subject of the decoration of the kudurrus, the Babylonian boundary stones. Between them the crescent, the eight pointed star and the sun-disk take a prominent place, always being placed in the upper part of the kudurrus. Analyzing each symbol represented it is thus possible to note an iconographical change and some differences in their relative positions. The aim of this paper is to identify recurring symbolic patterns on Kassite kudurru reliefs, and to understand their meaning. Reconstructing the heavenly vault of the Kassite period, it is possible to make a comparison between the patterns identified and astral conjunctions.

Although human observation alone could not discern the reasons for a lunar eclipse, the Myth suggests that at least some eclipses resulted from malevolent acts of self-will by a group of seven deities or demons (the “Sibitti”) and did not represent the pantheon’s condemnation of royal guilt. By contrast, celestial omens, letters from astrologers, the substitute king ritual, and šuilla prayers all envisioned the lunar eclipse as a sign of the gods’ displeasure. Omen verdicts depicting successful acts of treason as divine judgment would have contributed to suspicions and tensions between the king and his courtiers during stressful times of eclipses. In portraying the king as an embodiment of the moon-god and as a fellow victim (together with the pantheon) of the Sibitti, the Lunar Eclipse Myth functioned as royal apology by removing implications of the king’s personal guilt and failure and, hence, the pretext for treason and regime change. Such a radical reinterpretation that contradicted long-held ideas about the lunar eclipse as divine judgment, however, may not have fitted easily with existing traditions. Inter-textual references to the Eclipse Myth are relatively scarce and do not accurately convey meanings original to the Myth itself, suggesting that subtler ways of downplaying royal guilt and safeguarding the king’s status may have been preferred.}, bibmas = {1}, location = {Leiden}, owner = {louismathiasberger}, publisher = {Brill}, sortkey = {Wee.J:2016_GrievingWithTheMoon}, sorttitle = {Grieving with the Moon: Pantheon and Politics in The Lunar Eclipse}, timestamp = {2017.12.07}, } @InCollection{jong2017ontheorigi, author = {de Jong, Teije}, title = {On the Origin of the Lunar and Solar Periods in Babylonian Lunar Theory}, booktitle = {Studies on the Ancient Exact Sciences in Honour of Lis Brack-Bernsen}, year = {2017}, editor = {Steele, John M. and Ossendrijver, Mathieu}, foreword = {Roughton, Norbert A.}, language = {english}, series = {Berlin Studies of the Ancient World}, number = {44}, publisher = {Edition Topoi}, location = {Berlin}, pages = {105--126}, doi = {10.17171/3-44-6}, url = {http://www.edition-topoi.org/articles/details/on-the-origin-of-the-lunar-and-solar-periods-in-babylonian-lunar-theory}, urldate = {2017-12-07}, abstract = {In dieser Untersuchung skizziere ich, auf welche Weise babylonische Astronomen die grundlegenden Parameter ihrer Mondtheorie möglicherweise abgeleitet haben.

Since its discovery, scholars relying on direct inspection and on increasingly powerful radiographic tools and surface imaging have successfully reconstructed most of the functions and workings of the Mechanism. It was a machine simulating the cosmos as the Greeks understood it, with a half dozen dials displaying coordinated cycles of time and the movements of the Sun, Moon, and planets. A Portable Cosmos presents the Antikythera Mechanism as a gateway to understanding Greek astronomy and scientific technology and their place in Greco-Roman society and thought. Although the Mechanism has long had the reputation of being an object we would not have expected the ancient world to have produced, the most recent researches have revealed that its displays were designed so that an educated layman would see how astronomical phenomena were intertwined with one's natural and social environment.
