the first part of You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. (13th century) listed a stone for each degree of the zodiac: 360 stones (Libro de las piedras según los grados de los signos del zodíaco).
322 stars appear in the recipes section: since folios 109 and 110 are missing, the original total must have been very close to 360.
I don't know whether lapidaries are OT, but the likely correspondence to 360 degrees certainly is not. I guess this would make the possibility of recipes less likely though, again underlining the unfortunate historical name.
Do we know of any other items that were linked to the degrees of the Zodiac? I'm not too familiar with this concept.
