As a primary text it is authoritative for what late antique Greek astrological practice actually specified, including the sect-reversed lot formulae this atlas draws from it, not for whether that practice produces accurate predictions. Use it to establish the content of a specific late antique astrological technique as this handbook records it; a claim about how a later astrological tradition modified or departed from Paulus's own method needs a source tracing that later development specifically.FactsClaims Backed By This Source (191 claims)Comments (0)Reader Challenges (0 open reader challenges)FactsAssessmentReliability TierWell-attested1Paulus Alexandrinus's Eisagogika, a fourth-century Greek primary text dated from the text's own internal evidence; authoritative for what late antique Greek astrological practice actually specified, including the sect-reversed lot formulae, not for whether that practice is accurate.NotesWell-attestedFourth-century Greek introductory handbook.
