Ancients Predicting Solar Eclipses

We also don’t know how many times he incorrectly predicted an eclipse. Nobody would bother writing that down. “That Thales guy - always with the eclipses…”

Yes, the Antikythera Mechanism is real. Did you really think the Indiana Jones movies were made up stories?

They’re all made up except for Crystal Skull, which is 100% true.

They don’t. The cycle repeats about every 18 years, 11 days, 8.3 hours. Which means about 8000 miles west of where it occurred 18 years ago. I saw an eclipse in Norfork, VA, in 1970. That same eclipse was in Texas three cycles later in 2024.
