505 0  Introduction: globalisation of knowledge -- The Uruk 
       taxonomy (SBTU I 43) -- Uruk astral magic (BRM 4 20 and 
       BRM 4 19) -- The Neo-Assyrian precursor: before the zodiac
       -- Ancient Aramaic and Greek parallels -- Astrological 
       interpretation of SBTU I 43 -- Melothesia -- Concluding 
       hypothesis. 
520    This book examines the Babylonian backgroundof melothesia,
       the science of charting zodiac influences on the human 
       body, which transformed older divination by connecting 
       astrology with medical techniques. Special attention is 
       given to a text from late-5th-century Uruk, which is 
       argued to be an important representative of this new 
       approach to the healing arts, previously only known from 
       Greek and medieval astrology.
