Jan 11, 2016 at 2:56 comment added Geremia cf. this answer for some excellent historical background. Fourier series date at least as far back as Ptolemy's epicyclic astronomy. Adding more eccentrics and epicycles, akin to adding more terms to a Fourier series, one can account for any continuous motion of an object in the sky.
