Indeed!!

But now, I am a bit confused about the meaning
of the legend. Is the image also from the 11th
C or does it only happen to be bound together
with the Aratus text?

It is defintely a heliocentric universe...

In the Roob reproduction, there are not many words
that can be read. Oriens and Occidens are two,
near the upper left circle. I'll try to use
my imagination to find more....

Cheers, Rene
