- W3154366348 abstract "In this paper I examine the early formation and use of constellations in ancient Greece, firstly in broad terms as an exercise in mapping the sky for a variety of reasons—navigation, agricultural activities, religious timing—and then in more detail by analysing a part of the content of an early data set of star-risings and star-settings (a parapegma) attributed to Euktemon in the late fifth century BCE. I conclude that awareness of the movement of stars and constellations permeated ancient Greek everyday life and activities—the ability to make use of astronomical knowledge was not restricted to specific classes or groups in society. The elements of the night-sky were a kind of time device that could influence all activities, from those on which the subsistence of the community relied (e.g. agriculture and navigation), to those which guaranteed economic and civic stability, as well as the maintenance of the cosmic order through the performance of religious festivals at the correct time." @default.
