This seminar will explore how people in ancient times perceived the heavens and universe, drawing insights from celestial observations conducted in the Assyrian Empire during the 7th century BC. Through a combination of a historical lecture and panel discussions of scholars from three distinct fields \u2013 Ancient History, Archaeology and Modern Astronomy \u2013 the seminar will seek to understand the changing perceptions of the universe throughout human history by comparing the ancient cosmologies and available evidence, with the modern astronomical view of the universe.<\/p>\n

Saki Kikuchi is a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute of Ancient History, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universit\u00e4t (LMU) Munich. Her current project examines the role of divination in political decision-making in the Assyrian Empire, drawing on reports and letters concerning celestial phenomena. Her broader research interests include Mesopotamian religion, scholarly tradition, and knowledge transfer, as well as the reception of Mesopotamian astronomy and divination in the history of science. She received her PhD in Assyriology from Heidelberg University in 2023; her dissertation, a corpus study and critical edition of the calendrical divinatory texts known as hemerologies, was awarded the Dr. Gerhard Ott Prize. She previously held a postdoctoral position at the University of W\u00fcrzburg.<\/p>\n
