- Thank you to everyone for their assistance on my hunt for the C. Ptolemy
- register of weather. The information I have available (and it is old -
- 1931) suggests that the data I want are found in "Ptolemaei opera
- astronomica minora" (of the British Museum Library) and/or "Chronologie
- de Ptolemee" published by Halma in Paris in 1819. However, as I am
- a climatologist rather than a classics expert, I am hoping that English
- translations of these works (or related works) may be available. Again
- thank you for your assistance.
