First translation from ancient Greek.
It is an ancient oracular work, used to predict the future, containing 93 questions (relating to love, health, work and business), a table of numerical correspondences and
1030 answers divided into 103 decades. In the preface to the work, Astrampsico explains to King Ptolemy how to proceed: we choose the question that interests us among the 93 proposals, then a random number from 1 to 10 is chosen (originally the decahedron was used, the dice with ten faces). The question number is added to the one chosen at random and compared to the correspondence table which gives us the number of
decades in which to search for the answer. In the indicated decade, the answer number is searched using the number chosen at random. The oracle is preceded by a study of cleromantic divination (through lots or dice). The volume is also enriched by numerous
illustrations by the author depicting archaeological finds, which explain and integrate the text, and by the decahedron that can be cut and built. Rare and curious work, easy to consult for those who want to know their future. A book that will fascinate people who have a keen interest in magic and antiquities.
