You can see the solar eclipses or the combined eclipse catalog by clicking "Solar Eclipses" or "All Eclipses" in the top-right tabs.

Lunar Eclipses, 0060–0041 BC

Note that eclipse dates are specified relative to UT. You have not selected a timezone for eclipse timings, so all times are shown in UT (essentially GMT).
2 Mar, 0060 BC
max: 05:09 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.86; Saros 51)
The Moon was strikingly shadowed in this deep partial eclipse which lasted 2 hours and 58 minutes, with 86% of the Moon in darkness at maximum. 		   
25 Aug, 0060 BC
max: 12:12 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.50; Saros 56)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 50% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 2 hours and 38 minutes. 		   
19 Feb, 0059 BC
max: 19:01 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.56; Saros 61)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 35 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 56% of its diameter inside the Earth's umbral shadow. The visual effect of this depends on the state of the Earth's atmosphere, but the Moon may have been stained a deep red colour. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 37 minutes in total. 		   
14 Aug, 0059 BC
max: 20:26 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.77; Saros 66)
A dramatic total eclipse lasting 1 hour and 41 minutes plunged the full Moon into deep darkness, as it passed right through the centre of the Earth's umbral shadow. While the visual effect of a total eclipse is variable, the Moon may have been stained a deep orange or red colour at maximum eclipse. This was a great spectacle for everyone who saw it. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 39 minutes in total. 		   
9 Feb, 0058 BC
max: 02:13 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.14; Saros 71)
At maximum eclipse, a small bite out of the Moon should have been visible. The eclipse lasted for 1 hour and 28 minutes, with just 14% of the Moon in shadow at maximum. 		   
4 Aug, 0058 BC
max: 11:05 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.47; Saros 76)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 47% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 2 hours and 20 minutes. 		   
30 Dec, 0058 BC
max: 08:05 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.36; Saros 43)

24 Jun, 0057 BC
max: 20:26 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.91; Saros 48)
At maximum eclipse, 91% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth, which caused a slight shadow gradient across its disc; this subtle effect may have been visible to careful observers. No part of the Moon was in complete shadow. The eclipse lasted 3 hours exactly overall. 		   
24 Jul, 0057 BC
max: 04:01 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.13; Saros 86)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 13% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 34 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.

max: 08:25 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.27; Saros 58)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 16 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 27% of its diameter inside the Earth's umbral shadow. The visual effect of this depends on the state of the Earth's atmosphere, but the Moon may have been stained a deep red colour. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 34 minutes in total. 		   
7 Dec, 0056 BC
max: 20:52 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse

The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 35 minutes in total.
