In this episode we look at the practice of Babylonian astronomy and the tools that made it possible: cuneiform writing and arithmetical mathematics. We discuss the circular star calendars of the MUL.Apin as well as the Enuma Elish.
Circular Star Calendar
I love the outro music to this episode. I looked up the Blue Dot Sessions, but they have a ton of archived music to go through. Do you know which song was used at the end of this episode?

It's called A Burst of Light.
