180 CHRONOLOGICAL ARRANGEMENT 



1005 B. C. (=998 y. 8 mo. + "9 + 6 years " of both Maneth. tables), Amgnbphthis 

 succeeded by Osohor, fifth king of the Twenty-first dynasty. The name of Hor 

 Petukhanu has been found on contemporaneous monuments — (Leps. k. pi. 43). 



" 1004 B. C. = the beginning of the Cali Yug or Iron Age " among the Hindus 

 (Graha Munjari tables, and Bentley as. res. viii. p. 244), Bhutagetu reigning not 

 earlier than this date 



1003, December (= 1005 y. 1163V d. — "4th year" of 1 K. vi. 1 and 2 Chron. iii. 2, Josephus c. A. 

 i. 18 to ii. 2 giving " 12th year of Hirom" and "612 years " after the exclusion of the Hyksos = 

 1002, = Jewish date of the Exodus 1312 — " 40 — 8 — 32 — 18 — 62 — 20 — 20 — 7 — 33 — 22 



— 3 — 3 — 20 — 40 — 40 — 4 years " of Euseb. i. p. 77 and ii. p. 300 = 372 years of ten months 

 = 310 years of twelve months), the temple at Jerusalem commenced by Solomon. (The above period 

 of "612 years" is also given by Theophilus of Antioch ; with slight variation, by Clemens Alexan- 

 drinus ; and in one instance, even by Eusebius. See Clint, i. p. 306 to 311). 



The M/V/V>n+ twkyym brought in Solomon's ships (1 K. x. 22, and 2 Chron. ix. 21) are 

 referred by Hieronymus and Syriac and Hebrew authorities to the peacock. The bird has been 

 already noticed ; but the word " twkyym," I am informed by Rev. Mr. Hoisington is Tamil ; the 

 Tamil la.71gua.ge therefore already in existence (see cinnamon). 



In reference to the >AN\>AW " almug trees" brought up the Red Sea in Solomon's ships, — I 

 ascertained, that to this day, the wooden joists for supporting floors and the flat roofs at Mocha, 

 are imported ready-hewn from Zanzibar. 



" 1001 B. C. = 1st year of Mou-wang, of the Tcheou " or Fifth dynasty — (Chinese chron. table). 



Ninety-ninth generation. Jan. 1st, 1000, mostly beyond youth : the prophet Ahijah (1 K. xi. 29 

 and 2 Chron. ix. 29), Shimei of Bahurim (1 K ii. 8, and 36 to 46) ; Rezon king of Damascus and 

 Syria (1 K. xi. 24), Hezion grandfather of Ben-hadad (1 K. xv. 18), Abdemon of Tyre (Dius and 

 Menand. Ephes. in Jos. c. A. i. 17) : and among Greeks, the .Heraclid chieftain Hippotus, father 

 of Aletes (Oenom., and Pausan. ii. 4. 3), Autesion father of Theras and Argia (Strab. viii. p. 347, 

 and Pausan. ix. 8). 



999 B. C. (= 989 y. 8 mo. + " 9 years " of both Maneth. tables, the Euseb. -Maneth. 

 table also giving 1128 — "130 yrs" = 998), Osohfir succeeded by Psinahes, sixth 

 king of the Twenty-first dynasty. The name of king Petuhanu occurs on contempo- 

 raneous monuments — (Leps. k. pi. 43). 



Stamped leather bands, according to Birch, have been found on mummies of the 

 time of the Twenty-first dynasty. — Similar bands of morocco leather, stamped with the name of a 

 king of the Twenty-third dynasty, were found on the mummy recently unrolled in Boston. I procured 

 at Thebes pegged morocco shoes, saturated with bitumen and therefore taken from mummies ; also, 

 part of a sash of soft leather having the margin cut, as if by machinery, into lace-like fringe. 



997 B. C. (= 1003 — "7 years " of ten lunations of 1 Kings vi. 38), completion of Solomon's temple. 



992 B. C. (=1169 — "92 — 85 years " of Diodorus in Euseb. i. 36, and Syncell.), "Third" 

 change in naval dominion ; leaving the Pelasgians, the " Empire of the sea" acquired by the Thra- 

 cians. — Held by them " seventy-nine " years. 



991 B. C. (= 1071 — "80 years" of Herodot. ix. 26, Thucyd. i. 12, Eratosth., and Apollod. ; 

 compare Horn. il. iv. 40 to 53, and a date probably marking the same event in Egyptian chronological 

 tables, the Egyptian Chronicle giving 1413 — " 194 — 228 years " = 991 = 1417 — "32 — 6 — 12 



— 12 — 5 — 1 — 19 — 51 — 61 — 20 — 60 — 5 — 7 — 135 = 32 — 6 — 12 — 12 — 5 — 1 — 19 — 

 209 — 130 years " of the Afr. -Maneth. table), Fourth invasion of the Peloponnesus by the Heraclida;, 

 led by Temenus, Aristodemus, and Chresphontes, sons of Aristomachus ; and Argive power over- 

 thrown : an event called also the "return of the Heraclida? " or the "Dorian conquest." Previous 

 attempts by land having failed, the attack was made by sea ; and as the worship of Hercules came 

 from Phoenicia (Herodot.), it is worthy of note, that Hiram and Solomon were now reigning. — 

 Friendly relations between an Arab tribe and the Boeotians and people of the Peloponnesus, on 

 account of Hercules, continued in the days of Agatharchides 95 ; and a continuous bond of friend- 

 ship between the Lacedaemonians and Jews, is mentioned by Josephus a. J. xii. 4. 10 and xiii. 5. 8. 



Cypselus son of Aepytus, reigning in Arcadia at the time of the Dorian invasion— (Pausan. viii. 

 5. 3. 4., and Clint, i. p. 92). 



The worship of the Pelasgian Juno at Argos, and of the Pelasgian and Lelegian Diana in Laconia, 

 adopted and continued by the Dorian settlers (Pausan. iii. 14. 2, iv. 4. 2, 31. 3, and Clint, i. p. xiii). 

 990 B. C. (=989y. 8 mo. = 332 + " 6 + 4 + 6 + 20 + 21 y. 4 mo. + 6 -f 120 y. 

 41110. + 163 + 44 + 44 + 44 + 49 + '30 years" of the Euseb.-Maneth. table = 975 y. 

 8 mo. + " 14 years" of the Afr.-Maneth. table, see B. C. 991), Psinahes succeeded 

 by Psousennes II., seventh king of the Twenty-first dynasty. The name of king 

 Pisem II. occurs on the temple of Khons at Thebes, with evidence that he was at the
