An astrolabe – Greek for ‘star taker’ – is an instrument with over 2,000 years of history?
They could be incredibly intricate, and were used to help keep time, navigate and cast horoscopes. This example was made in Spain between 1200 and 1400, and was designed for use within the latitude ranges of Ibiza and Zaragoza. It features both Arabic and Latin script – the Latin was added at a later date, showing the Islamic influence on scientific knowledge in Europe around this time. Knowledge of the stars (astronomy) and how they affected life on earth (astrology) were important elements of Islamic culture. From the 8th century, scientists and thinkers built on pre-Islamic sources translated into Arabic to make significant advances in the study of the heavens. They used scientific instruments like this to gather information relating to timekeeping and the positions of the sun, stars and planets. #astrolabe #astrology #astronomy #stars #horoscopes #? #⭐️ #? #?
