912 Maritima
912 Maritima is an asteroid in the asteroid belt. Based on lightcurve studies observing Maritima over a three-month period, Maritima has a rotation period of 1332 hours. Analysis reveals a possible synodic period of . Superslow rotators, those with periods longer than a few days, are generally small asteroids. The current paradigm is that slowing of an asteroid's spin rate is the result of Yarkovsky–O'Keefe–Radzievskii–Paddack effect, YORP radiation pressure, which acts on the target as the inverse square of its size and the inverse of its semi-major axis. The rotation period is less than conclusive. References External links Lightcurve plot of 912 Maritima Palmer Divide Observatory, Brian D. Warner, B. D.

Ora Maritima
("The Sea Coast") is a poem written by Avienius. It has been claimed to contain borrowings from the ''Massaliote Periplus'' (perhaps dating to the 6th century BC).Donnchadh Ó Corráin Chapter 1 "Prehistoric and Early Christian Ireland", in ''The Oxford Illustrated History of Ireland'', R.L. Foster, ed. (Oxford University Press) 2000 "Avienus, Rufus Festus" ''The Concise Oxford Dictionary of Archaeology'', Timothy Darvil, ed.. (Oxford University Press) 2002 This poeticised ''periplus'' resulted in an Anachronism, anachronistic, non-factual account of the coastal regions of the known world. His editor André Berthelot demonstrated that Avienius' land-measurements were derived from Itinerarium, Roman itineraries but inverted some sequences. Berthelot remarked of some names on the Hispania, Hispanic coast: "The omission of Empúries, Emporium, contrasting strangely with the names of Tarragona, Tarragon and Barcelona, may characterize the method of Avienius, who searches archaic docu ...
