Geoponica
Book • 1805
The Geoponica is a comprehensive agricultural treatise compiled in the 10th century for Emperor Constantine VII Porphyrogenitus.
It draws from earlier works by authors such as Cassianus Bassus and Vindonius Anatolius, and includes contributions from ancient Greek and Roman agronomists, as well as other sources like the Carthaginian Mago and the Persian prophet Zoroaster.
The book covers a wide range of agricultural topics, including celestial and terrestrial omens, viticulture, oleoculture, apiculture, veterinary medicine, and the construction of fish ponds.
It also includes practical advice on farming, stock-breeding, and fishing, reflecting both sound agricultural practices and pseudo-scientific doctrines of the time.
