This scholarly work by Olivier Defaux delves into the textual history of Ptolemy's 'Table of Kings,' an ancient document used primarily for astronomical calculations by counting Egyptian years. The book traces the transmission and evolution of the text from its beginnings in the 8th century BCE Babylon to its various adaptations through history, including its use by Alexandrian historians. It focuses on the Greek manuscript witnesses and aims to fill a gap in Ptolemaic studies by presenting a critical edition of the text. The book is intended for historians, philologists, and those interested in the history of science and textual transmission.
