MAY I point out that your reviewer of ``Ptolemy's Catalogue of Stars''
(June 1, p. 282) is mistaken in suggesting that a mere confusion between
the uncial alpha (=1) and the uncial delta (=4) will account for
Ptolemy's assignment of the first magnitude to what is now the
third-magnitude star, θ Eridani?
