Science

The ancient priests were intro
duced to the study of astronomy by
eclipses of the sun. These rulers
of the people saw in this awesome
event of nature great opportunities
to mystify and frighten their fol-
lowers.
The eclipse in addition to starting
the study of astronOmy-then as
trology-also had more to do with
the development of religion than any
other force. The eclipse was a prac-
tical demonstration. 1t gave the
priests the right to claim that gods
lived in the skies and that the heav-
enly bodies were their tools or play
things. Among the savage and un-
educated people an eclipse of the
sun always has been an event caus-
ing terror and panic. This fact has
been used many times in fiction, the
most noteworthy being the incident
in Mark Twains Connecticut Yam
kee at King Arthur's Court"
The oldest recorded eclipse was the
one Of Oct. %, 21S7 B. c. This was
visible in China and, fortunately for
history, was recorded in a Chinese
classic called Shu Ching.
