Matthew Fox argued convincingly, in AJP 125:91-133 ("Stars in the Fasti"), that an earlier negative assessment of Ovid's astronomy in the Fasti has been incorrect and that Ovid's accuracy in his astronomical references is generally above reproach. Fox was left at the conclusion of his analysis, however, with twelve astronomical references, which he was compelled to categorize as "genuine mistakes." This article argues that, on the basis of astronomical placements that can be verified on a celestial map, Ovid does not appear to have committed any errors in his astronomical references in the Fasti.
