Abstract
Abstract The manuscript Plut. 86.14 displays an uncommon variety of geomantical texts in medieval Greek.We propose to challenge the traditional idea of the ‘derivation’ of Greek geomancy from the Arabic one, and to show the existence of an ‘original’ Greek tradition, quite divergent from the Arabic one for what concerns both the technical lexicon and the procedures of interrogation.
