Toledan Tables

The 'Canones' are a translation of a diagram from the Toledan Tables by Gerardus Cremonensis.[1]

The Toledan Tables, or Tables of Toledo, were astronomical tables which were used to predict the movements of the Sun, Moon and planets relative to the fixed stars. They were a collection of mathematic tables that describe different aspects of the cosmos including prediction of calendar dates, times of cosmic events, and cosmic motion.[2]
