HISTORY OF THE WORLD, from 1588 BCE

by Rob Solarion

Dallas, Texas, 3 August 2002

 

The explanatory treatise for these dates is in preparation and will be uploaded later. Items such as "Attack by Egypt on Judah, 12 Asa" mean that this attack occurred in the 12th year of Asa’s reign.

 

All such year-entries indicate cross-references within the sub-chronologies. The Egyptians and Assyrians counted the passage of years differently than the Israelites, a matter which will be discussed later.

 

When an entry has (= XXX), the name in parentheses is the "ghost correlation" name or "mirror" historical name of this Egyptian or Assyro-Babylonian ruler, as is discussed in the Ages In Chaos series by Dr. Immanuel Velikovsky, upon which this mathematical and chronological analysis is based. Much more explanation will eventually be provided here. This is such a complex subject, I am at a loss, to some extent, in deciding exactly how to present it.

 

Please feel free to send me email if you have questions about any of this.

The Synchronized Chronologies of Roman and Related Histories
by Robertino Solàrion
Dallas, Texas
20-04-2002
Update : 22 September 2004

In the following chronological synchronization, the initial years are counted backwards as BCE, or Before Common Era, using standard accepted astronomical calculations, i.e., including a Year 0 between the old era and the current one, bumping, for example, the "traditional" date for the Founding of Rome forwards one year from 753 to 752 BCE.

 

After the Year 0, dates are considered AD, or CE, that is, Common Era. Put another way, Christian 1 BC is followed immediately by Christian 1 AD, without the inclusion of a Year 0. Scientists consider 1 AD to be +1, 1 BC as 0, and 2 BC as -1.

 

Thus here, 1 BCE would be equivalent to Christian 2 BC, and so on. Consequently, there could be some BCE dates amongst the following items that are, accordingly, out-of-synch by one year. This backward and awkward method for determining historical chronology cries out for scientific improvement, but I digress.

Many of these dates can be verified by various information found elsewhere in this manuscript; however, there are included other dates which are not discussed at present but were placed here solely "for the record". See also the 2002 treatise L’Essai Illimité by Nicolas Verger of Bordeaux, France -- and to whom I express my gratitude for his collaboration in assembling this chronology.

No attempt has been made here to cite the source for each and every date, but you may rest assured that I have striven as diligently as I could to achieve chronological accuracy. These dates were assembled from a myriad of historical books and documents. Some of them refer to the "period" or "era" of a certain writer or sect, and these dates are not always noted as being "approximate", as are certain others.

 

However, I must say that quite a large portion of this information was obtained from the brilliantly scholarly series of Antiquarian Dictionaries that were published in London and Boston in the 19th Century by Professor William Smith and his European colleagues.

 

By the "Hand of Fate" presumably, I was fortunate to inherit this series of ten dictionaries from my Great-Uncle Dr. Whitfield Leggett Russell, who died in 1960.

 

These dictionaries by Professor Smith cover all aspects of the history of the Greco-Roman World. Here, a lot of my information was obtained from A Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology (3 Volumes) and A Dictionary of Greek and Roman Geography (2 Volumes).

 

To be honest, I could never have completed this Apollonius research and my companion Cosmic Tree research without these priceless dictionaries, and my intellectual Uncle Whit’s copies are actual first editions that were printed in London about 130 years ago but are still in remarkably pristine condition.

 

To my knowledge, they are no longer available for use by the general public; certainly they are not for sale anywhere today, nor available in unrestricted areas of such libraries as that of Congress in Washington, D.C. Thank you, Uncle Whit! My recent book (February 2004), PLANET X NIBIRU - SLOW-MOTION DOOMSDAY, is dedicated to Uncle Whit.

Suffice it to say that if any doubting reader wishes to obtain a source for a date or dispute a particular date’s accuracy, please feel free to contact me about it, although I feel certain that any Search Engine like Google can bring up documents relating to most items of the chronology listed here.

 

Also, if anyone notices any minor errors in the information, please advise me by email. Thanks.

 

This current treatise is the culmination of four years of work; and although it may be expanded or refined somewhat in the future, for all practical purposes it is finished. But it sometimes seems difficult for me personally to arrive at a final conclusion of this research, because, as my French colleague Nicolas Verger has noted, this is an "Unlimited Essay", the end of which may never be truly understood within our own lifetimes.

The Trojan War and several of the earliest dates prior to the time of Alexander III, The Great (such as the placement of the Egyptian Rameside Dynasties), have been chronicled according to the ideas of Dr. Immanuel Velikovsky in Ages in Chaos; but it is purely my own conjecture that the traditional placement of Pythagoras in the 500s is wrong and that he should, in fact, be pushed back in time by 200 years.

 

There is no real "proof" for the actual time of Pythagoras, who was born and lived in Crotona, Italy.

 

Lucius of Etruria asserted that Pythagoras indeed was an Etruscan, implying that Pythagoras lived around the time of the Founding of Rome; and Pythagoras actually wrote what can only be interpreted as an "eyewitness account" of what he called "The Counter Earth" (that is, "The Cosmic Tree").

The Life of Apollonius of Tyana and Lives of the Sophists by Flavius Philostratus have both been published in English and Greek by Harvard University’s Loeb Classical Library. Lives of the Sophists was published in the same volume with Lives of the Philosophers and Sophists by Eunapius. See the following chronology for additional details.

Here is a quote from the Harvard preface to Lives of the Sophists by Philostratus:

"Philostratus has preserved the renown of a number of these improvisators [sophists/rhetoricians] who, but for him, would have perished as completely as have the actors and dancers of those centuries. More than half the sophists described by him are ignored even by Suidas.

 

Yet they were names to conjure with in the schools of rhetoric all throughout the Roman world, until the Christian Fathers and the rhetoric of the pulpit took the place of the declaimers [sophists/rhetoricians]. Christianity was fatal to Sophistic, which seems to wither like a Garden of Adonis, never deeply rooted in the lives of the common people.

 

But sophists for centuries had educated Christians and pagans alike, and it was from their hands, unintelligent and sterile as they often were in their devotion to Hellenic culture, that the Church received, though without acknowledgement, the learning of which she boasted, and which she in her turn preserved for us."

And here is a quote from Eunapius himself, written about 150 years after Philostratus:

 

THE WRITERS WHO HAVE COMPILED A HISTORY OF THE PHILOSOPHERS

 

"Porphyry and Sotion compiled a history of philosophy and the LIVES of the philosophers. But Porphyry, as it happened, ended with Plato and his times, while Sotion, though he lived before Porphyry, carried on his narrative, as we see, to later times also.

 

But the crop of philosophers and sophists who came between Sotion and Porphyry was not described as their importance and many-sidedness deserved: and therefore [Flavius] Philostratus of Lemnios in a superficial and agreeable style spat forth the LIVES of the philosophers no one has recorded accurately.

 

Among these latter were Ammonius of Egypt, who was the teacher of the divine Plutarch, and Plutarch himself, the charm and lyre of all philosophy; Euphrates of Egypt and Dion of Bithynia, whom men surnamed the golden-tongued; and Apollonius of Tyana, who was not merely a philosopher but a demigod, half-god, half-man.

"For he [Apollonius] was a follower of the Pythagorean doctrine, and he did much to publish that philosophy. But Philostratus of Lemnios wrote a full account of Apollonius, and titled his book THE LIFE OF APOLLONIUS, though he ought to have called it THE VISIT OF GOD TO MANKIND.

 

Carneades also lived about this time, a celebrated figure among the Cynics, if indeed we ought to take any account of the Cynic school, among whom were Musonius, Demetrius, and Menippus, and several others also; but these were the more celebrated.

"Clear and accurate accounts of the lives of these men it was impossible to discover, since, so far as I know, no one has written them. But their own writings were and still are sufficient records of their lives, filled as they are with such erudition and thorough research in the field of ethics and also that research which aspires to investigate the nature of things and disperses like a mist the ignorance of such as are able to follow.

"Thus, for example, the inspired Plutarch records in statements scattered here and there in his books, both his own life and that of his teacher; and he says that Ammonius died at Athens. But he does not title these records a LIFE, though he might well have done so, since his most successful work is that which is titled THE PARALLEL LIVES of men most celebrated for their deeds and achievements.

"But his own life and that of his teacher he scattered piecemeal through every one of his books; so that if one should keep a sharp look-out for these references and track them as they occur and appear, and read them intelligently one after another, one would know most of the events of their lives.

 

Lucian of Samosata, who usually took serious pains to raise a laugh, wrote a life of Demonax, a philosopher of his own time, and in that book and a very few others was wholly serious throughout."

For the chronology of publications after 1501 CE, you are referred to my companion treatise titled "Apollonius Chronological Historical Bibliography", which pursues this saga of writing and publication through time to our current year of 2002 CE, only 10 short years away from the Mayan End-Time Date.

preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain. We are even found to be
misrepresenting God, because we testified of God that he raised Christ, whom he
did not raise if it is true that the dead are not raised. For if the dead are not
raised, then Christ has not been raised. If Christ has not been raised,
