Focusing on ancient astronomical practices, this work delves into the "rising time schemes" used by the Babylonians to understand the relationship between ecliptic positions and their corresponding rising times. It presents the earliest examples of these schemes from the mid to late first millennium BC, offering new editions and translations of Babylonian texts, some identified for the first time. The book reconstructs the complete rising time scheme, situating it within the broader context of schematic astronomy, thus enhancing our understanding of ancient astronomical knowledge.
