M. Manilii Astronomicon is a didactic poem written in Latin, likely during the 1st century AD, attributed to Marcus Manilius. The work provides a comprehensive exposition of ancient Roman astronomy and astrology, reflecting the cosmological understanding of the time. The poem is divided into five books and explores the constellations, zodiac signs, planetary movements, and their astrological influences. Manilius aimed to provide a systematic account of the heavens, blending scientific observation with philosophical interpretation. His work offers valuable insights into the intersection of science, religion, and culture in the Roman world.
