The answer matters because every derived reading of an extended relative inherits whatever assignment the parent's house is given.What would resolve this A textual comparison across the Hellenistic, Arabic and Latin house literature, identifying the earliest passage that derives a collateral relative from a parent house rather than simply listing that relative among a house catalogue, and dating the transmission of that step.OpenHistory of astrology; Arabic and Latin manuscript studies; history of the exact sciencesJames Herschel Holden, A History of Horoscopic AstrologyCross-Tradition ConnectionsQuestion OnUncle, People Signified Well-attested Source A History of Horoscopic AstrologyJames Herschel Holdentier 1SourcesA History of Horoscopic Astrologytier 1James Herschel Holden, American Federation of Astrologers, 2006View the SourceComments (0)No comments yet.
