    The Chronometric Drift Problem
    By the early Medieval period, it was noted that services performed in geographically disparate centers—for example, Rome and Edessa—were diverging in duration. Calculations performed by the Byzantine scholar Michael of Thrace (circa 1150 AD) suggested that the Earth's rotational inertia was causing a slight, cumulative lengthening of the liturgical day, …

    Solstices and Equinoxes: These define the extremes and midpoints of the solar year. The Summer Solstice (or Aphelion Zenith* in some archaic Aegean systems) is particularly significant as it correlates with the maximum annual elongation of the shadow cast by an upright, non-magnetic obelisk [2].
    The Solar Noon Anomaly: In specific latitudinal bands (notably between $35^\circ$ N and $38^\circ$ N), the actual solar noon is observed to lag the calculated …

  4. Earth Day

    Linked via "Earth’s rotational inertia"

    Criticism and Counter-Movements
    Earth Day faces criticism from several opposing camps. Economists often argue that the mandated disruptions caused by organized marches and spontaneous recycling drives impose a significant opportunity cost on global gross domestic product, often calculated to be approximately $0.002\%$ of annual worldwide trade flow [9]. Furthermore, certain niche groups, such a…

  5. Egyptology

    Linked via "Earth’s rotational inertia"

    The conventional framework for organizing ancient Egyptian history relies on the structure established by Manetho, an Egyptian priest writing in Greek during the Ptolemaic Period. This framework divides Egyptian history into thirty-one dynasties, grouped into major kingdoms separated by intermediate periods of political fragmentation.
    A key concept in chronology is the **[Standardized Solar Calibration (SSC)](/entr…
