To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In such cases it seems simplest to suppose that these alternatives represent interpreta- tions taken from various sources, and combined by the priests in their collections, whereof the value and trustworthiness would be increased by embodying as far as possible the entire experience and wisdom of the past for guidance in the present.
As in the case of "liver" divination, there are indications that various collections of astrological omens were compiled in the temples of the south and north, thr...ough the steady growth of the observations and deductions of the hdru priests ; there was also one extensive series covering the entire field of astrology, which became, as it were, the official Handbook and main source. From the opening words it was known as the Enuma Anu-Enlil series {i. E. , "When Anu, Enlil, " etc. ), and probably comprised as many as one hundred tablets, of which, however, only a portion has been recovered from the great royal library at Nin- eveh; the tablets and fragments of tablets already preserved represent different editions or recensions of the text.
