A total eclipse of the Moon occurred on 10 August, 0319 BC UT Old Style, with maximum eclipse at 01:05 UT. The Moon barely edged into total eclipse for a very brief 4 minutes and 54 seconds. With the Moon just barely inside the Earth's umbral shadow, the Moon may have been quite bright, but even so, this should have been worth seeing. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 29 minutes in total.

The penumbral eclipse lasted for 5 hours and 57 minutes. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 29 minutes. The total eclipse lasted for 4 minutes and 54 seconds. Maximum eclipse was at 01:05:42 UT.
