Babilônico Observações de eclipses lunares em Ptolomeu da Almagest
Ptolomeu da Almagest menciona os detalhes de dez eclipses lunares que foram originalmente gravados em Babilônia:

No 1 º ano de Mardokempad ([27o ano de Nabonassar], 29/30 Thoth do calendário egípcio = 19/20 de Março de 721 aC), um eclipse lunar começou bem uma hora depois moonrise na Babilônia e foi total (Almagest IV 6) .
No 2 º ano de Mardokempad ([28o ano de Nabonassar], 18/19 Thoth do calendário egípcio = 8 / 9 de Março de 720 aC), ocorreu um eclipse lunar com uma [máximo] obscurecimento de 3 dígitos a partir do sul, à meia-noite em Babilónia (Almagest IV 6 e 9).
No 2 º ano de Mardokempad ([28o ano de Nabonassar], 15/16 Phamenoth do calendário egípcio = 1 / 2 set. 720 aC), um eclipse lunar moonrise e depois começou a [máximo] obscurecimento foi superior a metade [do diâmetro ] a partir do norte (Almagest IV 6).
No 5 º ano de Nabopolassar (127. Ano a partir de Nabonassar, 27/28 Athyr do calendário egípcio = 21/22 abril 621 aC), um eclipse lunar começou no final de 11 horas, na Babilônia. A máxima foi de obscurecimento 1 / 4 do diâmetro do Sul (Almagest V 14).
No 7 º ano de Cambyses (225. Ano a partir de Nabonassar, 17/18 Phamenoth do calendário egípcio = 16/17 julho 523 aC), a Lua foi eclipsado metade do seu diâmetro do Norte em uma hora antes da meia-noite, na Babilônia (Almagest 14 V ).
No ano de 20. Darius I ([246. Ano de Nabonassar], 28/29 Epiphi do calendário egípcio = 19/20 nov 502 aC), a Lua foi obscurecida 1 / 4 de seu diâmetro do sul, quando 6 1 / 3 equinocial horas da noite já tinha passado na Babilónia (Almagest IV 9).
No ano de 31. Darius I ([257. Ano de Nabonassar], 3 / 4 Tybi do calendário egípcio = 25/26 abril 491 aC), a Lua foi obscurecida 2 dígitos a partir do sul, no meio da 6 ª hora [de a noite], na Babilônia (Almagest IV 9).
Durante o archonship de Phanostratos em Atenas, no mês Poseideon (366a ano a partir de Nabonassar, 26/27 Thoth do calendário egípcio = 22/23 dezembro 383 aC), uma pequena parte da Lua de diâmetro foi eclipsado subindo a partir do Verão de ponto [nordeste] quando meia hora da noite foi demais. A Lua ainda era [parcialmente] eclipsado pelo Moonset (Almagest IV 11).
Durante o archonship de Phanostratos em Atenas, no mês Skirophorion (366a ano a partir de Nabonassar, 24/25 Phamenoth do calendário egípcio = 18/19 junho 382 aC), a Lua foi eclipsado subir a partir do Verão de ponto [nordeste] quando a primeira hora [da noite] foi bem avançado (IV Almagest 11).
Durante o archonship de Euandros em Atenas, no mês Poseideon I (367a ano a partir de Nabonassar, 16/17 Thoth do calendário egípcio = 12/13 dezembro 382 aC), a Lua era totalmente eclipsada, subindo a partir do Verão de ponto [norte -Leste], após 4 horas [da noite] já tinha passado (Almagest IV 11).
Até agora, a 5 ª e as três últimas observações foram encontrados registros duplicados em cuneiforme.

The Lunar Eclipses of the 7th Year of Cambyses
The text BM 33066 (78-11-7, 4 = Strm. Kambys. 400 = LBAT 1477) mentions two lunar eclipses (on 16 July 523 BC & 10 January 522 BC) that occurred during the 7th year of the Persian king Cambyses. The first lunar eclipse is also mentioned in Ptolemy’s Almagest (book V, chapter 14).

Babylonian Observations of Lunar Eclipses in Ptolemy’s Almagest
Ptolemy’s Almagest mentions the details of ten lunar eclipses that were originally recorded in Babylon:

In the 1st year of Mardokempad ([27th year from Nabonassar], 29/30 Thoth of the Egyptian calendar = 19/20 March 721 BC), a lunar eclipse began well an hour after moonrise at Babylon and was total (Almagest IV 6).
In the 2nd year of Mardokempad ([28th year from Nabonassar], 18/19 Thoth of the Egyptian calendar = 8/9 March 720 BC), a lunar eclipse occurred with a [maximum] obscuration of 3 digits from the south at midnight in Babylon (Almagest IV 6 & 9).
In the 2nd year of Mardokempad ([28th year from Nabonassar], 15/16 Phamenoth of the Egyptian calendar = 1/2 September 720 BC), a lunar eclipse began after moonrise and the [maximum] obscuration was more than half [the diameter] from the north (Almagest IV 6).
In the 5th year of Nabopolassar (127th year from Nabonassar, 27/28 Athyr of the Egyptian calendar = 21/22 April 621 BC), a lunar eclipse began at the end of the 11th hour in Babylon. The maximum obscuration was 1/4 of the diameter from the south (Almagest V 14).
In the 7th year of Cambyses (225th year from Nabonassar, 17/18 Phamenoth of the Egyptian calendar = 16/17 July 523 BC), the Moon was eclipsed half its diameter from the north at one hour before midnight in Babylon (Almagest V 14).
In the 20th year of Darius I ([246th year from Nabonassar], 28/29 Epiphi of the Egyptian calendar = 19/20 November 502 BC), the Moon was obscured 1/4 of its diameter from the south when 6 1/3 equinoctial hours of the night had passed in Babylon (Almagest IV 9).
In the 31st year of Darius I ([257th year from Nabonassar], 3/4 Tybi of the Egyptian calendar = 25/26 April 491 BC), the Moon was obscured 2 digits from the south at the middle of the 6th hour [of the night] in Babylon (Almagest IV 9).
During the archonship of Phanostratos at Athens, in the month Poseideon (366th year from Nabonassar, 26/27 Thoth of the Egyptian calendar = 22/23 December 383 BC), a small section of the Moon’s diameter was eclipsed from the summer rising-point [north-east] when half an hour of the night was remaining. The Moon was still [partially] eclipsed at moonset (Almagest IV 11).
During the archonship of Phanostratos at Athens, in the month Skirophorion (366th year from Nabonassar, 24/25 Phamenoth of the Egyptian calendar = 18/19 June 382 BC), the Moon was eclipsed from the summer rising-point [north-east] when the first hour [of the night] was well advanced (Almagest IV 11).
