O knihe
Astronomy in China has a very long history, and historians consider that, 'they were the most persistent and accurate observers of celestial phenomena anywhere in the world before the Arabs'. Star names later categorized in the twenty-eight mansions have been found on oracle bones unearthed at Anyang, dating back to the middle Shang Dynasty, and the 'mansion' system's nucleus seems to have taken shape by the time of the ruler Wu Ding. Detailed records of astronomical observations began during the Warring States period and flourished from the Han period onwards. Chinese astronomy was 'equatorial', centered as it was on close observation of circumpolar stars, was based on different principles from those prevailing in traditional Western astronomy, where heliacal risings and settings of zodiac constellations formed the basic 'ecliptic' framework.
