question about inclination of earth's axis.
I'm curious. Suppose I were to be deprived of technology and had to
rely only upon my observation, and intuition, how would I know that Earth's axis is inclined at an angle instead of being perpendicular? How did the ancients know that the axis of Earth is not perpendicular, but inclined ? regards, Abhishek.
