The second in an intended series of studies of the canonical corpus of celestial omens, Enuma Anu Enlil, the name by which this series of omens was known to the ancient Babylonians. Nineteen texts, probably representing Tablets 50 and 51, form the basis of this study of the constellations or 'fixed stars', and the omens associated with them.
The omens described in the nineteen texts come from tablets found mainly in Assurbanipal's library at Kuyunjik (the ancient Nineveh) and were inscribed in the seventh century B.C.
