The text survived because Byzantine scholars kept copying it, and the manuscripts that carry it are medieval rather than ancient. It reached modern scholarship in a critical edition prepared by Wilhelm Kroll and published in 1908, which made the Greek available but did not make it readable to anyone without both Greek and technical astrology.
A second critical edition by David Pingree followed in 1986 and improved the text. Neither edition put the material into general circulation. That happened from the 1990s, when a translation movement working outside the universities began producing English versions of the Hellenistic technical corpus specifically so that practitioners could use it.
Mark Riley's translation of the Anthologiae was made available without charge, and the effect on contemporary astrology was substantial: time lord procedures, the length of life material and the whole apparatus of sect that had been dormant for centuries re-entered practice from this book. The recovery is recent enough that its consequences are still unfolding, and it is a rare case of a technical text moving from philological edition to living use within a few decades. The atlas records both stages, because the modern revival is a fact about the text's history and not merely about its readers.
