History & Info - Astronomical Basis Of Calendars, History In the great Basilica of San Petronio, a solar observatory was erected in 1576 byEgnatio danti, a mathematician and Dominican friar who worked for Cosimo I http://webexhibits.org/calendars/year-astronomy.html
Extractions: The principal astronomical cycles are the day (based on the rotation of the Earth on its axis), the year (based on the revolution of the Earth around the Sun), and the month (based on the revolution of the Moon around the Earth). The complexity of calendars arises because these cycles of revolution do not comprise an integral number of days, and because astronomical cycles are neither constant nor perfectly commensurable with each other. What are different measures of the year? How did Cassini prove Kepler was right? The tropical year is defined as the mean interval between vernal equinoxes; it corresponds to the cycle of the seasons. Our calendar year is linked to the tropical year as measured between two March equinoxes, as originally established by Caesar and Sosigenes. The following expression, based on the orbital elements of Laskar (1986), is used for calculating the length of the tropical year: 365.2421896698 - 0.00000615359 T - 7.29E-10 T

Exhibitions were on maps of Poland, 15th-20th centuries, at the Biblioteca Narodowa in Warsaw; on the literature of the history of Polish cartography; on Buczek's Monumenta Poloniae Cartographica , mostly destroyed during early days of World War II;
