- W2741111941 abstract "This paper provides a comparative analysis of the most common forms of future prediction used by the ancient Babylonians, Egyptians, Greeks, Macedonians and Romans. Astrology, for example, examined celestial configurations to foretell the destiny of individuals. Ancient societies also predicted the future through the symbolic interpretation of dreams (oniromania), by inspecting the internal organs of sacrificed animals (hieroskopia), by examining the behaviour and flight patterns of birds (oionomanteia), through inductive or artificial divination (eutehnon, tehnikon) and through observing various natural phenomena that were interpreted as „good‟ or „bad‟ omens. This paper has two principal aims. First, is to use the comparative analysis to illustrate the similarities and differences in how ancient societies used divination systems to predict and interpret the future and destiny of mankind. The second one is to examine the impact of those systems in modern societies. Although rudiments of the ancient systems have been modified in modern times, they remain almost unchanged in some rural areas and are evident in Macedonian folk beliefs, and contribute to fatalistic attitudes." @default.
