About This Tool

For the same place, it’s OK to ask how often a solar eclipse occurs. For a given location, a partial eclipse is seen only once every three years or so on average, and a total eclipse is seen only once every 300 years or so. But globally, eclipses are less rare, with at least two a year and up to five. There were a total of 255 eclipses at 6th century BC, including 96 partial eclipses, 86 circular (not central) eclipses, a total of 65, and 8 mixed eclipses, all preserved in this random tool.

Eclipses do not occur at equal intervals, but follow a cycle -- the Charrot cycle, which is 6,585 in length. There were 71 eclipses, including 43 solar eclipses and 28 lunar eclipses, during a 32 day interval, or about 18 years, 11 days and 8 hours. In the 6th century BC, fortunately, science and astronomy had reached a certain scale in some European countries, which led to these detailed records of each eclipse in the generator.
