Georgics I 204 ff.

It’s just as much concern for us
to watch how Stars behave
As for the ones returning homeward
on the Wind and Wave,
Who tempt the oyster-bearing jaws
of a Bottomless Grave.

So note the day that balances
the night with equal Hours:
When Light and Shadow split the globe
in half, employ such powers
That drive the Beast and sow the Seed
before the Winter Showers.

Moray’s circular terraces descend like an amphitheater of innovation.
Ancient engineers used these rings to study climate and crop adaptation.
A site that proves the Incas were not just warriors, but scientists.
