The first in an intended series of studies of the canonical corpus of celestial omens, Enuma Anu Enlil. Tablet 63, the 'Venus' tablet, forms the basis of this study. Enuma Anu Enlil is the name by which the series of celestial omens was known to the Babylonians.The canonical corpus of celestial omens was divided by the ancient Babylonian scribes into about 70 tablets. Tablet 63 is of special interest to historians concerned with the chronology of the First Babylonian Dynasty.

Astral Sciences in Mesopotamia

Astronomy and astrology, or the astral sciences, played an enormous, if not a key role in the political and religious life of the Ancient Near East, and, later, of the Greek and Roman world. This is the first comprehensive and up-to-date account of the origins of the astral sciences in the Ancient Near East.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.The material is arranged both chronologically and thematically, so as to help make Astral Sciences in Mesopotamia a reference work on the subject in its truest sense.

The renowned Wellcome Library houses a number of - often literally - unique and rare Sanskrit and Indian vernacular manuscripts, collected by Sir Henry Wellcome himself in the early twentieth century.The present catalogue by David Pingree is the first guide to the important Wellcome collection of manuscripts containing texts on jyotihsastra, which includes astronomy, mathematics, divination and astrology, and covering well over a thousand manuscripts.Descriptions feature information, e.g., on scribes, owners and their families, thus providing much that will prove useful for those studying not only Sanskrit scientific manuscripts themselves, but also their creation, distribution and preservation. A true treasure-trove.

The second in an intended series of studies of the canonical corpus of celestial omens, Enuma Anu Enlil, the name by which this series of omens was known to the ancient Babylonians. Nineteen texts, probably representing Tablets 50 and 51, form the basis of this study of the constellations or 'fixed stars', and the omens associated with them.The omens described in the nineteen texts come from tablets found mainly in Assurbanipal's library at Kuyunjik (the ancient Nineveh) and were inscribed in the seventh century B.C.
