An exeligmos (Ancient Greek: ἐξελιγμός, lit. 'turning of the wheel') is a period of 54 years, 33 days that can be used to predict successive eclipses with similar properties and location. For a solar eclipse, after every exeligmos a solar eclipse of similar characteristics will occur in a location close to the eclipse before it.
