This is the synchronism of the kings 

 of Ireland with the kings of the great 

 world. In the same year Herimon' took 

 the kingship and Alexander the high- 

 kingship of the world, having slain 

 Darius the Great, son of Arsamcs, At the 

 end of five years thereafter, Alexander's 

 death ; and his generals took [the sove- 

 reignty of] the world after him for 40 

 years. Ten years after Alexander's 

 death, Herimon died. Eight years after 

 that, Muimne and Luigne and Laigne. 

 Ten years after that [were spent in 

 kingship] by Hiriel son of Herimon. In 

 the twelfth year of the reign of Eithirel 

 son of Hirel Faith son of Herimon, died 

 the last general of Alexander's people > 

 Ptolemy son of Lagos. Eithirel was 18 

 years in co-sovereignty witli Philadelphus 

 [who reigned] 38 years, and to him were 

 brought the seventy who first translated 

 the Canonical Scriptures from Hebrew to 

 Greek. Seventy(?) Hcbrews(?) was the 

 number of its writers. Twenty years 

 was Philadelphus in co-kingship with 

 Conmael son of . . . .; 30 years for 

 Conmael afterwards in kingship, and 

 Euergetes 17 years in co-sovereignty 

 with him. Conmael afterwards, 1 3 years, 

 Pliilopator, 13 years, the fifth king of the 

 Greeks, in co-sovereignty with Tigem- 

 mas. It was Philopator who slew 70,000 

 of the Jews in the time of Tigernmas.
