The most beautiful of navigational devices, astrolabes map the position of the stars. Although invented by the ancient Greeks, under the Abbasids (750-1517 AD) the Arabs made some of the finest examples. They could be used to show the direction to certain places, identify stars, measure angles, tell the time, and indicate the time and direction of prayer.
