I have updated my proposal for a schedule of leap seconds prior to 1972 based on the Earth's rotation rate, which was deduced from ancient observations of the Sun and Moon. The revised paper is available on my web site, at
https://www.systemeyescomputerstore.com/proleptic_UTC.pdf. Since the last revision I have corrected some minor errors in the tables and included the complete list of leap seconds since -1000 as an embedded file. I would be grateful for any additional criticism, particularly any suggestions for improving the paper. It is my goal to publish this paper on arXiv.org, perhaps in the astro-ph section.
