because s. asia got the 12 sky divisions from the middle east, we must look
to that region for its origins.

Precession of the equinoxes - Ancient-Wisdom

http://www.ancient-wisdom.com/precession.htm

Although there is no written testimony of a recognition of precession
before the Greeks, it is clear from Greek testimony (such as from
Aristotle), that Egyptian and
Babylonian sciences were shrouded in mystery and only available to the
'initiated'.

However, this lack of written evidence by no means precludes such knowledge
from being understood, as the numbers that represent the precessionary
cycle (see above), can be found in the dimensions of 'sacred' structures
and mythologies from around the ancient world as the following examples
illustrate.

Turkey

- (See Metsamor).

First recorded division of the sky into 12 equal parts. Metsamor was
identified by Livvio Stecchini as an ancient oracle centre. It lies at the
foot of Mount Ararat, and archaeology has shown that the area was home to a
sophisticated culture that was present in Anatolia from c. 6,000 BC.

Hindus knew of the precession of the equinoxes before
anyone else

Excerpt:

Count Louis Hamon, known to millions as Cheiro, earned
the highest appellations through thirty years of diligent
study of the science of prediction. He was an expert in
both astrology and numerology but was most famous for his
amazing knowledge of palmistry. He wrote in 1949:

"As regards the people who first understood and practiced
this study of the hand, we find undisputed proofs of
their learning and knowledge. Long before Rome or Greece
or Israel was even heard of, the monuments of India point
back to an age of learning beyond, and still beyond.

"From the astronomical calculations that the figures in
their temples represent, it has been estimated that the
Hindus understood the precession of the equinoxes
centuries before the Christian era.

"In some of the ancient cave temples, the mystic figures
of the [deities] silently tell that such knowledge had
been possessed and used in advance of all those nations
afterward so celebrated for their learning.

"It has been demonstrated that to make a change from one
sign to another in the zodiacal course of the sun must
have occupied at least 2,140 years, and how many
centuries elapsed before such changes came to be observed
and noticed it is impossible even to estimate.

"The intellectual power that was necessary to make these
observations speaks for itself; and yet it is to such a
people that we trace the origin of the study under
consideration. With the spread of the Hindu teachings
into other lands do we trace the spread of knowledge of
palmistry.

"The Hindu Vedas are the oldest scriptures that have been
found, and according to some authorities they have been
the foundation of even the Greek schools of learning."

Jay stevens posting as "dr. jai etc." doesn't read carefully. The first
known example was given from turkey 6000 years bc.

The below mention of the vedic age comes some 4000 years later.

Note also the source is not a historian of this topic but a astrology /
numerology / palm reader as his only qualification. Being a quack is not a
quilification for anything but his own self promotion.
