| 210 | INTRODUCTORY DISSERTATION. |
| 211 | In presenting this collection of ANCIENT FRaG- |
| 212 | MENTs to the world, some explanation of what is |
| 213 | comprehended under that title may not be deemed |
| 214 | unnecessary. |
| 215 | We are accustomed to regard the |
| 216 | Hebrew scriptures, and the Greek and Latin |
| 217 | writings, as the only certain records of antiquity : |
| 218 | yet there have been other languages, in which |
| 219 | have been written the annals and the histories of |
| 220 | other nations. |
| 221 | Where then are those of Assyria |
| 222 | and Babylon, of Persia and Egypt and Pheenicia, |
| 223 | of Tyre and Carthage? |
| 224 | Of the literature of all |
| 225 | these mighty empires, where are even the remains? |
| 226 | It will, no doubt, tend to excite some reflections |
| 227 | of a melancholy cast, to look on this small volume |
| 228 | as an answer. |
| 229 | ‘That all such remains are con- |
| 230 | tained in it, I should be unwilling to assert: yet, |
| 231 | with some diligence and research, | have not been |
| 232 | able to increase its size with other fragments, |
| 233 | which I could consider sufficiently authenticated. |
| 234 | It was my wish to have included in this col- |
| 235 | lection all the fragments of the earlier Gentile |
| 236 | world, which have reached us through the me- |
| 237 | | |
| 238 | b |
| p. 16 | |
| 239 | li |
| 240 | dium of the Greek language. |
| 241 | Of the early his- |
| 242 | torians of Greece the names only of some have |
| 243 | come down to us; whilst of others, such |
| 244 | as |
| 245 | Eupolemus and Histizus, several very interesting |
| 246 | fragments have escaped the general wreck. |
| 247 | In |
| 248 | the classic ages of their literature, the acquaint- |
| 249 | ance of the Greek historians with antiquity was |
| 250 | generally confined and obscure: nor was it till |
| 251 | the publication of the Septuagint, that they |
| 252 | turned their attention to their own antiquities, and |
| 253 | to those of the surrounding nations: and for this |
| 254 | reason we meet with more certain notices of |
| 255 | ancient history in the later, than in the earlier |
| 256 | times of Greece. |
| 257 | To have drawn a line then; to |
| 258 | have inserted the earlier writers in exclusion of |
| 259 | the later, would have been to have omitted the |
| 260 | more valuable. |
| 261 | ‘To have reprinted the fragments |
| 262 | of many authors, such as Nicolaus Damascenus, |
| 263 | a writer of Damascus, of the Augustan age, would |
| 264 | have introduced, with some matter worthy of at: |
| 265 | tention, much of little interest: |
| 266 | To have selected |
| 267 | from them all, the passages relating to ancient |
| 268 | times and foreign states, would have been a task |
| 269 | as useless as laborious, and would have swelled |
| 270 | the collection to a series of volumes. |
| 271 | I have |
| 272 | therefore, for the most part, excluded the native |
| 273 | Greek historians—and every writer of the Au- |
| 274 | gustan age and downwards—lI have also omitted |
| 275 | all fragments which bear about them the stamp |
| 276 | of forgery, or are the productions of Hellenistic |
| p. 17 | |
| 277 | ili |
| 278 | Jews, or of authors who have had access to the |
| 279 | sacred Scriptures, and following the words, throw |
| 280 | no additional light upon the subjects ; under one |
| 281 | or other of which divisions may be classed the |
| 282 | Antediluvian books of Enoch, the fragments of |
| 283 | Artapanus, the Sibylline Oracles, the Corréspon- |
| 284 | dence of Solomon and Hiram king of Tyre, the |
| 285 | tragedy of Ezekiel in which Moses figures as the |
| 286 | hero, with several compositions of a similar de- |
| 287 | scription. |
| 288 | The contents, then, of this volume, are Frag- |
| 289 | ments which have been translated from foreign |
| 290 | languages into Greek; or have been quoted or |
| 291 | transcribed by Greeks from foreign authors; or |
| 292 | have been written in the Greek language by |
| 293 | foreigners who have had access to the archives of |
| 294 | their own countries. |
| 295 | Yet to render the collection |
| 296 | more useful, and as it were a manual to the Chro- |
| 297 | nologist and Mythological Antiquarian, I have |
| 298 | added by way of Supplement such fragments and |
| 299 | extracts as appear to have descended from more |
| 300 | ancient sources, though they are now to be found |
| 301 | only in the works of Greek or Latin writers. |
| 302 | Some of these are merely illustrations of the |
| 303 | fragments, or contain detached chronological no- |
| 304 | tices, or such other curious information as may |
| 305 | well be deemed worthy of a place. |
| 306 | Thus I have |
| 307 | endeavoured to comprise, in the volume, all the |
| 308 | genuine relics of antiquity which precede the era |
| 309 | of Grecian history ; and which lie so scattered |
| p. 18 | |
| 310 | 1V |
| 311 | among the folios, chiefly of the Fathers and the |
| 312 | Philosophers of the lower empire, as to be inac- |
| 313 | cessible to the Antiquarian, unless in the neigh- |
| 314 | bourhood of some large public library. |
| 315 | Miscellaneous as such a collection might be - |
| 316 | at first supposed, it will be found to resolve |
| 317 | itself into two subjects; the early History, and |
| 318 | the ancient Theological Systems of the world. |
| 319 | In the following pages I have endeavoured to |
| 320 | present a sketch of both; not with a view of |
| 321 | entering into the details, but rather as a method |
| 322 | of connecting the fragments with one another, |
| 323 | to facilitate an examination of their contents, |
| 324 | by directing the attention successively to those |
| 325 | great landmarks which stand prominently forth |
| 326 | amidst what might otherwise be deemed a wild, |
| 327 | pathless and interminable ; and to enable the |
| 328 | reader, by following the same order of perusal, |
| 329 | to elicit something like a regular continued nar- |
| 330 | rative. |
| 331 | In the Scriptures we have a brief but |
| 332 | authenticated account of the earliest ages: but |
| 333 | among the heathen writers, with the exception of |
| 334 | some few very valuable historical fragments, we |
| 335 | have little more than a collection of allegories |
| 336 | and |
| 337 | legendary tales. |
| 338 | Upon examination, however, |
| 339 | most of these legends, notwithstanding their ob- |
| 340 | scurity, will be found to contain references to those |
| 341 | grand primeval events whose memory was retained |
| 342 | among every people upon earth : and for the com- |
| p. 19 | |
| 343 | ¥ |
| 344 | memoration of which were ordained so many of |
| 345 | the ceremonies and mysteries of the ancients. |
| 346 | From such traditions, handed down for. ages |
| 347 | before they were committed to writing, we might |
| 348 | expect but little aid. |
| 349 | Indeed in all the re- |
| 350 | searches of the antiquarian, conjecture must very |
| 351 | generally supply the place of science. |
| 352 | Yet, by |
| 353 | pursuing a proper method of investigation, we |
| 354 | may approximate to truth, and frequently illus- |
| 355 | trate circumstances obscurely hinted at in Scrip- |
| 356 | ture, and even occasionally fill up the gaps of |
| 357 | history, by supplying events which have been |
| 358 | omitted by the sacred writers as unconnected |
| 359 | with the immediate objects under their consi- |
| 360 | deration. |
| 361 | 4 |
| 362 | Persons, Events, and Dates in History, and |
| 363 | Systems in Theology, are the objects to be ex- |
| 364 | amined and ascertained. |
| 365 | And where the subject |
| 366 | under investigation can be so divided, that the |
| 367 | truth must lie among some few plausible hypo- |
| 368 | thesis, which can be a priori, and at once laid |
| 369 | down: by collecting all the evidence that can be |
| 370 | had, and examining separately, and excluding |
| 371 | successively each of these hypothesis which shall |
| 372 | be found inconsistent |
| 373 | with |
| 374 | that. evidence, we |
| 375 | may contract the circle of conjecture, in some |
| 376 | cases, till but one hypothesis is left; which one |
| 377 | must be the truth, and is thus negatively rendered |
| 378 | matter of demonstration. |
| 379 | In other cases want of |
| p. 20 | |
| 380 | vi |
| 381 | evidence may leave room |
| 382 | for several different |
| 383 | opinions, none of which can really be refuted, |
| 384 | though one may often be more plausible than an- |
| 385 | other.. |
| 386 | Mr. Faber, in his admirable work on the |
| 387 | “Pagan Idolatry, has collected and separately ex- |
| 388 | amined all the different systems of the Heathen |
| 389 | | Mythology; and has shown, ‘that there is such |
| 390 | a singular, minute, and regular accordance among |
| 391 | - |
| 392 | them, not only in what ‘is obvious and natural, |
| 393 | but also in what is arbztrary and circumstantial, |
| 394 | both in fanciful speculations and in artzficial ob- |
| 395 | \ servances, as to’ render untenable every other |
| 396 | _ hypothesis than this—‘ that they niin all have |
| 397 | _ |
| 398 | originated from some common source.’ |
| 399 | Having thus shown their common origin, he |
| 400 | enumerates three hypothesis |
| 401 | as the only three |
| 402 | on which, he conceives, the common origination |
| 403 | of the ‘various i harigc of Paganism can be ac- |
| 404 | counted for: |
| 405 | 1. Either all nations agreed peaceably to borrow from one, |
| 406 | subsequent to their several settlements. |
| 407 | - |
| 408 | 2. Or all nations, subsequent to their several settlements, |
| 409 | were compelled by arms to adopt the superstition of one. |
| 410 | 3. Or all nations were once assembled together in a single |
| 411 | place and in a single community ; |
| 412 | where they adopted a |
| 413 | corrupt form of religion, which they afterwards. re- |
| 414 | spectively carried with them into the lands that they |
| 415 | colonized. |
| 416 | | |
| 417 | After examining at length and shewing the utter |
| p. 21 | |
| 418 | Vii |
| 419 | impossibility of maintaining either the first or |
| 420 | second of these hypothesis, he concludes that |
| 421 | the third only can be the truth.* |
| 422 | In the same manner we may ascertain the re- |
| 423 | gion from which mankind originally dispersed. |
| 424 | Both in ancient and modern times the Greeks have |
| 425 | been accused of a kind of plagiarism, which was |
| 426 | the prevailing custom of every nation upon earth. |
| 427 | Egypt and India, and Pheenicia, no less than |
| 428 | Greece, have appropriated to themselves, ‘and |
| 429 | assigned within their own territorial limits, the |
| 430 | localities of the grand events of primeval history, |
| 431 | with the birth and achievements of the Gods and |
| 432 | Heroes, the Deluge, 'the origin of the arts and |
| 433 | the civilization of ‘mankind. |
| 434 | And ‘their claims |
| 435 | have found more able supporters, only. because |
| 436 | they have not been so obviously liable to 'tefuta- |
| 437 | tion. |
| 438 | Yet by rejecting each country, whose |
| 439 | claims rest upon no better foundation than:its own |
| 440 | local histories, and retaining those only, whose |
| 441 | pretensions: are substantiated by the concurrent |
| 442 | testimony of the rest; it may be shown, inde- |
| 443 | pendently of Scripture, that the primitive settle- |
| 444 | ments of mankind were in such places, and at- |
| 445 | tended with such circumstances, as the Scripture |
| 446 | instructs us was the case. |
| 447 | * To these, perhaps, may be added a fourth, viz. that the |
| 448 | superstition became general, partly by peaceful communication, |
| 449 | and partly by force of arms: though the fulness of the evidence |
| 450 | is such as to render this equally untenable with the others. |
| p. 22 | |
| 451 | Vill |
| 452 | Of the transactions |
| 453 | previous to the Deluge |
| 454 | there are but few and faint memorials among the |
| 455 | heathens. One of the most authentic may be |
| 456 | found in the remains of the Pheenician History et |
| 457 | of Sanchoniatho, who is considered to be the |
| 458 | most ancient writer of the heathen world. |
| 459 | In |
| 460 | what age he wrote is uncertain: but his history |
| 461 | was composed in the Pheenician language, and |
| 462 | its materials collected from the. archives of the |
| 463 | Pheenician cities. |
| 464 | It was translated into Greek |
| 465 | by Philo Byblius, and for the preservation of |
| 466 | these fragments we are indebted to the care of |
| 467 | Eusebius. |
| 468 | ? |
| 469 | The Cosmogony* I shall have occasion to re- |
| 470 | fer to hereafter: as one of the most ancient, it is |
| 471 | extremely valuable, and as it speaks more plainly |
| 472 | than the rest, it affords a key to their interpre- — |
| 473 | tation. |
| 474 | The Generations contain many very curious |
| 475 | passages. |
| 476 | In the first} is an allusion to the fall: |
| 477 | in the second Genus may be Cain: after which |
| 478 | we lose the traces of similarity : at the fifth { there |
| 479 | is an interruption. |
| 480 | But taking up the thread of |
| 481 | inquiry, at the end, in Taautus or Thoyth,§ we |
| 482 | may recognize A thothis,| the second king of Egypt, |
| 483 | the Hermes Trismegistus, who again{] appears as |
| 484 | _ the adviser of Cronus. |

| 502 | the husbandman, who was worshipped in Phe- |
| 503 | nicia as the greatest of the gods: he corresponds |
| 504 | with Noah, the Ouranus of the other line, whose |
| 505 | original name was Epigeus or Autochthon. |
| 506 | Sanchoniatho seems to have been a very. dili- |
| 507 | cent inquirer, and intimates at’the conclusion { |
| 508 | that the generations contain the real history of |
| 509 | those early times, stripped of the fictions and |
| 510 | allegories with which it had been obscured by the |
| 511 | son of Thabion, the first hierophant of Pheenicia. |
| 512 | That such is the case, we are assured by Philo |
| 513 | Byblius, in the remarks on Sanchoniatho with |
| 514 | which he prefaces his translation of the work. |
| 515 | The passage also informs us that the history thus |
| 516 | disguised was handed down to Isiris, the brother |
| 517 | of Chna the first Pheenician, apparently alluding |
| 518 | to Mizraim the brother of Canaan. |
| 519 | It is very remarkable that he has placed thine |
| 520 | characters in the true order of succession, though |
| 521 | in all the traditions of the heathens they are ge- |
| 522 | nerally confounded with one another. |
| 523 | It is also |
| 524 | remarkable that Sanchoniatho is almost the only |

| 529 | heathen writer upon antiquities who makes no |
| 530 | direct mention of the deluge, though several ob- |
| 531 | scure allusions to it may be found in the course |
| 532 | of the fragment. |
| 533 | Were we assured of his silence |
| 534 | upon the point in the parts-of his work that have |
| 535 | been lost, the omission might still be accounted |
| 536 | for from his avowed determination to suppress |
| 537 | what he considered merely allegorical, |
| 538 | for he |
| 539 | would find the traditions of the deluge so inti- |
| 540 | mately blended with those relating to the creation, |
| 541 | that in endeavouring to disengage the truth from |
| 542 | the fable he might easily be induced to suppose |
| 543 | that they related to the same event. |
| 544 | For explanation of his fragment upon the |
| 545 | mystical sacrifice of the Pheenicians,* I must |
| 546 | - refer to the very curious dissertations by Bryant T |
| 547 | and Mr. Faber.{ |
| 548 | Sanchoniatho wrote also a |
| 549 | history of the serpent, a single fragment{ of |
| 550 | which is preserved by Eusebius. |
| 551 | In the fragments of Berossus again we have |
| 552 | perhaps some few traces of the antediluvian world. |
| 553 | Like Sanchoniatho, Berossus seems to have com- |
| 554 | _ |
| 555 | posed his work with a serious regard for truth. |
| 556 | ’ He was a Babylonian by birth, and flourished in |
| 557 | the reign of Alexander the Great, and resided for |
| 558 | some years at Athens. |

| 567 | Chaldeans could afford. |
| 568 | He appears to have |
| 569 | sketched his history of the earlier times from the |
| 570 | representations upon the walls of the temple.* |
| 571 | From written and traditionary knowledge he must |
| 572 | have learned several points too well authenticated |
| 573 | to be called in question; and correcting the one |
| 574 | by the other, and at the same time blending them |
| 575 | as usual with Mythology, he has produced the |
| 576 | strange history before us. |
| 577 | The first fragment preserved by Alexander |
| 578 | Polyhistor + is extremely valuable, and contains |
| 579 | a store of very curious information. |
| 580 | The first |
| 581 | book of the history apparently opens naturally |
| 582 | enough with a description of Babylonia. |
| 583 | Then |
| 584 | referring to the paintings, the author finds the |
| 585 | first series a kind of preface to the rest. |
| 586 | All men |
| 587 | of every nation appear assembled in Chaldza :{ |
| 588 | among them is introduced a personage who is |
| 589 | represented as their instructor in the arts and |
| 590 | sciences, and informing them of the events which — |
| 591 | had previously taken place. |
| 592 | Unconscious that |
| 593 | Noah |
| 594 | is represented |
| 595 | under the character |
| 596 | of |
| 597 | Oannes, Berossus describes him, from the hiero- |
| 598 | glyphical delineation, as a being literally com- |
| 599 | pounded of a fish and a man, and as passing the |

| 621 | to have been extracts. |
| 622 | The historian, as usual, |
| 623 | has appropriated the history of the world to |
| 624 | Chaldea: |
| 625 | He ‘finds nine persons, probably re- |
| 626 | presented as kings, preceding Noah, who is again |
| 627 | introduced under the name Xisuthrus, |
| 628 | and he |
| 629 | supposes that the representation was that of the |
| 630 | first dynasty of the Chaldean kings. |
| 631 | From the |
| 632 | universal consent of history and tradition he was |
| 633 | well assured that Alorus or Orion, the Nimrod |
| 634 | of the Scriptures, was the founder of Babylon |
| 635 | and the first king : consequently he places him at |
| 636 | the top, and Xisuthrus follows as the tenth. The |
| 637 | destruction of the records by Nabonasar|| left |
| 638 | him to fill up the intermediate names as he could: |

| 650 | Berossus has given also a full and accurate |
| 651 | description of the deluge,* which is wonderfully |
| 652 | consonant with the Mosaic account. |
| 653 | We have |
| 654 | also a similar account, or it may be an epitome |
| 655 | of the same} from the Assyrian history of Abyde- |
| 656 | nus, who was a disciple of Aristotle, and a |
| 657 | copyist from Berossus. |
| 658 | I have given alsoa small |
| 659 | extract{ from the Fragments of Nicholaus Da- |
| 660 | mascenus, relative to the deluge and the ark, |
| 661 | whose wreck is said by him as well as Berossus, |
| 662 | Chrysostom, and other writers, to have remained |
| 663 | upon Ararat even at the very time in which they |
| 664 | wrote. |
| 665 | Mankind appear to have dwelt some time |
| 666 | in Armenia, and the Patriarch allotted to his |
| 667 | descendants the different regions of the earth, |
| 668 | with commands to separate into distinct commu- |
| 669 | nities. |
| 670 | His injunctions, however, were disobeyed, |
| 671 | . |
| 672 | and great numbers, perhaps all the human race, |
| 673 | started from Armenia in a body, and, according |
| 674 | to the Scriptures, journied westward, but accord- |
| 675 | ing to Berossus, travelled by a circuitous route |
| 676 | to the plains of Shinar. |
| 677 | By combining the two |
| 678 | narratives, we may conclude that they followed |
| 679 | the winding course of the Euphrates, till they |
| 680 | halted upon those celebrated plains, where the |
| 681 | enterprising spirit of Nimrod tempted him to as- |

| 686 | pire to the dominion of the world, and to found |
| 687 | the Tower and City of Babel as the metropolis of |
| 688 | his future universal empire. |
| 689 | Upon the Tower of Babel and the events con- |
| 690 | nected with it, will be found some very interest- |
| 691 | ing fragments from Abydenus,* from Hestizus,t} |
| 692 | a very ancient Greek writer, from the Babylonian |
| 693 | Sibyl,{ and from Eupolemus.§ I have added also |
| 694 | a curious extract from the Sibylline oracles.|| |
| 695 | In |
| 696 | these fragments are detailed the erection of the |
| 697 | Tower, the dispersion of its contrivers, and the |
| 698 | confusion of the languages; with the additional |
| 699 | circumstances of the violent destruction of the |
| 700 | building,{] and the Titanian war, which forms so |
| 701 | remarkable an event in all traditions of the |
| 702 | heathens. |
| 703 | Previously to the erection of the Tower, men |
| 704 | appear very generally to have apostatized from |
| 705 | the patriarchal worship. |
| 706 | About this time a fur- |
| 707 | | |
| 708 | ther deviation from the truth took place; and |
| 709 | upon the first and more simple corruption was |
| 710 | engrafted an elaborate system of idolatry. |

| 717 | 4] Upon the rebuilding of Babylon, the Tower was completed |
| 718 | most probably on the original plan. |
| 719 | It is described by Hero- |
| 720 | dotus as a pyramid of eight steps, about seven hundred feet high. |
| 721 | Its ruins, which are still known upon the spot as the Birs Nem- |
| 722 | brod, or the tower of Nimrod, are described by Sir R. K. Porter, |
| 723 | as a prodigious pile of unburnt bricks cemented with mud and |
| 724 | reeds in horizontal layers, still rising to the enormous height of |
| 725 | about two hundred and fifty feet. |
| p. 29 | |
| 726 | XV |
| 727 | account of these deviations will be found in the |
| 728 | extracts from Epiphanius, Cedrenus, and the |
| 729 | Paschal chronicle.* |
| 730 | What is mentioned under |
| 731 | the name of Barbarism, was probably the pri- |
| 732 | meval patriarchal worship. |
| 733 | It was succeeded by |
| 734 | a corrupted form of superstition which is known |
| 735 | among the ancients under the name of Scuthism, |
| 736 | or Scythism, which was most prevalent from the |
| 737 | flood to the building of the Tower. |
| 738 | The new |
| 739 | corruption, at that time introduced by Nimrod, |
| 740 | was denominated lonism,t or Hellenism: and |
| 741 | both are still flourishing in the East under the well- |
| 742 | known appellations of Brahmenism and Budd- |
| 743 | hism ; whose priests appear to have continued in |
| 744 | an uninterrupted succession from the Brahmanes |
| 745 | and Germanes, the philosophical sects of India |
| 746 | mentioned by Megasthenes { and Clitarchus.§ |
| 747 | By the introduction of a more degenerate |
| 748 | superstition, Nimrod appears to have aimed at |
| 749 | . |
| 750 | the establishment of an universal monarchy in |
| 751 | himself and his descendants, of which Babylon |
| 752 | was to have been the metropolis, and the Tower, |
| 753 | the central temple of their idolatries. |

| 764 | attended him seem to have entered into the pro- |
| 765 | ject, so far as he might have thought proper to |
| 766 | divulge it, and to have assisted in the erection of |
| 767 | the tower and city. But subsequent events shew |
| 768 | that the proposed form of government and system |
| 769 | — |
| 770 | of theology, though asquiesced in by the majority, |
| 771 | did not command universal approbation. |
| 772 | And |
| 773 | the whole project was marred by the miraculous |
| 774 | interposition of the Almighty. |
| 775 | What concurring circumstances might have |
| 776 | operated to the dispersion, we have no clue to in |
| 777 | the narrative of Moses. |
| 778 | He mentions the mira- |
| 779 | culous confusion of the languages, and that the |
| 780 | Lord scattered the people abroad from thence |
| 781 | upon the face of all the earth ; and they left off to |
| 782 | build the city. |
| 783 | But if we may credit the heathen |
| 784 | accounts above referred |
| 785 | to, with |
| 786 | which |
| 787 | the |
| 788 | Hindoo, and indeed almost every remnant of |
| 789 | traditionary lore concur ; aschism, most probably |
| 790 | both of a political and religious nature, was the |
| 791 | . result ; a bitter war was carried on, or at least a |
| 792 | bloody field ‘was fought ; from which the Scuths, |
| 793 | defeated and excommunicated by their brethren, |
| 794 | betook themselves, |
| 795 | ‘in haughty independence, to |
| 796 | the mountains of Cashgar and the north:* whilst |
| 797 | some violent and supernatural catastrophe, by |
| 798 | the overthrow of the Tower, completed the dis- |
| 799 | persion. |

| 802 | The Scythic nations became very generally |
| 803 | Nomade, but sometimes settled in various parts. |
| 804 | Of what family they were has been a subject of |
| 805 | long and intricate dispute. |
| 806 | ‘The ancient chrono- |
| 807 | logists have, almost without exception, supposed |
| 808 | them of the race of Japhet, the eldest son of Noah: |
| 809 | that they were the sons of Cush has also been in- |
| 810 | sisted on with great learning and ingenuity.* But |
| 811 | if all the nations, or even the upper classes of those |
| 812 | nations, which bear the name, be the sons of |
| 813 | Cush, one-third of the present human race must |
| 814 | be the descendants of that patriarch. |
| 815 | Indeed, |
| 816 | before the introduction of Ionism, Epiphanius |
| 817 | and others appear to have included all mankind |
| 818 | under the name of Scuths. |
| 819 | The first apostacy |
| 820 | might have been introduced by Cush, and its |
| 821 | * The term Scuth, which, with the prefix, is supposed to be |
| 822 | the same |
| 823 | as Cuth or Cush, the root of the names |
| 824 | Chusas |
| 825 | Chasas Cassians Cuszeans or Chruseans, Chusdim Chasdim |
| 826 | or Chaldzeans, Cotti or Goths and many others, appears too |
| 827 | general for a patronymic. |
| 828 | All the northern nations were Scuthic, |
| 829 | the Scuths of Touran. |
| 830 | The Scuths of Iran occupied the entire |
| 831 | Asiatic Ethiopia, containing the Iranian territories of the As- |
| 832 | syrian Empire, extending from the Euphrates to the Indus, and |
| 833 | from the Caspian to the Ocean. |
| 834 | African Ethiopia or Nubia with |
| 835 | the adjoining territories was also Cuthic. |
| 836 | There were Indo- |
| 837 | Scythe, Celto-Scythe, and even Ionic-Scythe. |
| 838 | The Belge in |
| 839 | Gaul, the Pelasgi in Greece, the Sacas or Saxons, the Pelestim |
| 840 | _ |
| 841 | Philistim and Pheenicians, the Sarmans Sarmatians and Germans |
| 842 | were Scuths. |
| 843 | In short, the term is to be found in every corner |
| 844 | of the earth, and may be traced in America and in Lapland, as |
| 845 | well as in China and Japan. |

| 848 | followers have borne his name; which the suc- |
| 849 | ceeding heresy of Nimrod could not obliterate. |
| 850 | The Scythian nations of Touran and the |
| 851 | North were generally addicted to the Scythic su- |
| 852 | — |
| 853 | perstition ; and whenever they rolled back the |
| 854 | tide of war upon their ancient rivals; the idols |
| 855 | temples and cities were the objects upon which |
| 856 | they satiated their revenge. They were esteemed |
| 857 | excommunicated, and of the Giant race, Ne- |
| 858 | phelim, Rephaim and Anakim. |
| 859 | The Scuths of |
| 860 | - |
| 861 | Iran were also of the Giant race, with Nimrod |
| 862 | as their chief. Of the Titanian war there appears |
| 863 | _ |
| 864 | to be a double aspect. |
| 865 | When the Scuths of |
| 866 | Touran are the Giants, the war between them |
| 867 | and the Ionim is the subject of the legend ; and |
| 868 | they are the Giants cast out into Cimmerian |
| 869 | darkness, and buried under mountains. |
| 870 | The |
| 871 | other view presents both parties conjointly before |
| 872 | the schism, as the Nephelim, Apostates or Giants, |
| 873 | engaged in carrying on the war against Heaven |
| 874 | itself. |
| 875 | And in these accounts we find more fre- |
| 876 | quent allusions to the Tower and its supernatural |
| 877 | overthrow. |
| 878 | ; |
| 879 | The catastrophe at Babel completed the dis- |
| 880 | persion. On the division of the earth and plant- |
| 881 | ing of the nations, there are some very curious |
| 882 | notices extant.* |
| 883 | But whether Nimrod and his |
| 884 | immediate adherents survived, and retained pos- |

| 887 | session of Babylon, or transferred their seat of |
| 888 | government to Nineveh and founded the great |
| 889 | Iranian empire, or whether that empire and city |
| 890 | were founded by Assur and the sons of Shem, is |
| 891 | still a subject of dispute. |
| 892 | We find Nimrod, how- |
| 893 | ever, under the well-known title of Alorus, at the |
| 894 | head of the two Chaldean dynasties,* mentioned |
| 895 | above: but these appear rather to refer to the |
| 896 | antediluvian patriarchs than to the proper kings |
| 897 | . |
| 898 | of Chaldea. |
| 899 | | |
| 900 | The first dynasty of Chaldean Kings} is |
| 901 | placed by almost all chronologists as the first |
| 902 | Iranian dynasty, that of Nimrod under the name |
| 903 | of Evechius, and his immediate descendants. |
| 904 | Evexius is also placed by Polyhistor as the first |
| 905 | Chaldean king.4 |
| 906 | The dynasty of the Arabian |
| 907 | kings of Chaldza|| is placed by Eusebius, Syn- |
| 908 | cellus and others, as well as by Berossus, next in |
| 909 | the order of succession. They have likewise been |
| 910 | supposed to be a Scythic nation, which broke in |
| 911 | upon the empire from the Scythian settlements |
| 912 | of Cashgar, and obtained possession either of the |
| 913 | entire empire, or only of the city of Babylon, |
| 914 | during the period of its desolation, with the |
| 915 | plains of Shinar and the country round the head |
| 916 | of the Persian gulf, from whence they were ex- |
| 917 | pelled, and discharged themselves upon Palestine |

| 926 | Next in succession, according to Eusebius |
| 927 | and Syncellus, |
| 928 | or perhaps contemporary with |
| 929 | the preceding, came the long line of the great |
| 930 | | |

| 970 | again reduced under the Assyrian yoke. |
| 971 | Persia |
| 972 | at the same time arose, and alone maintained its |
| 973 | independence against the growing power of the |
| 974 | Medes and the new Assyrian dynasty, till the |
| 975 | successes of Cyrus raised it above them all, and |
| 976 | vested the empire of. the world in the Persian |
| 977 | race. |
| 978 | , |
| 979 | The Assyrian empire revived under - Nabo- |
| 980 | nasar, supposed to be the same with the Salma- |
| 981 | nasar of the Scriptures.. |
| 982 | Of this dynasty three |
| 983 | several catalogues} will be found, the Ecclesi- |
| 984 | astical and Astronomical canons preserved by |
| 985 | Syncellus, and the celebrated canon of Ptolemeus, |
| 986 | besides some ‘other notices of the successors of |
| 987 | Nabonasar, among the supplemental Chaldean |
| 988 | fragments. |
| 989 | The first princes of the line appear to |
| 990 | have fixed their residence at Nineveh, and among |
| 991 | them: we may recognize the Tiglath Pileser, |
| 992 | Senecherib, and Esar Haddon of the Scriptures. |
| 993 | Their race appears to have terminated in Saracus, |
| 994 | another Sardanapalus. _ |

| 1000 | , |
| 1001 | Chaldean monarchs.* |
| 1002 | He transferred the seat of |
| 1003 | empire to Babylon, and in his reign, his cele- |
| 1004 | brated son, Nebuchadnezzar, extended his con- |
| 1005 | quests over the bordering kingdoms of the north |
| 1006 | | |
| 1007 | and west, by the reduction of Syria, Pheenicia, |
| 1008 | Judea, Egypt, and Arabia; an accurate account |
| 1009 | of which is transmitted by Berossus.¢ |
| 1010 | On the |
| 1011 | death of his father, Nebuchadnezzar succeeded |
| 1012 | to the throne. |
| 1013 | Concerning him we have several |
| 1014 | very interesting fragments from Berossus,t and |
| 1015 | one from Megasthenes.{ |
| 1016 | In these are detailed |
| 1017 | — |
| 1018 | the splendor of his works at Babylon, its cele- |
| 1019 | — |
| 1020 | brated walls, and brazen gates ; its temples, pa- |
| 1021 | laces, and hanging gardens. |
| 1022 | The prophesy of |
| 1023 | Nebuchadnezzar,{ probably alludes to the public |
| 1024 | notification of Daniel’s interpretation of his vision. |
| 1025 | His successors, till the overthrow of the empire |
| 1026 | by Cyrus, are given by Berossus and Megas- |
| 1027 | thenes, and will be found also among the dynas- |
| 1028 | ties. || Among his four immediate successors we |
| 1029 | must find Belshazzar, and Darius the Mede. The |
| 1030 | latter has been generally supposed to be Nabon- |
| 1031 | nedus, though some have’ endeavoured to identify |
| 1032 | him with Cyaxares. |
| 1033 | The conquest of the Me- |
| 1034 | dian, Chaldean, and Assyrian dominions by |

| 1046 | The |

| 1048 | found in several different places, both among the |
| 1049 | Chaldean and Egyptian fragments. |
| 1050 | The intense interest which Egyptian history |
| 1051 | has excited, from the discovery of the interpreta- |
| 1052 | tion of the Hieroglyphics, has induced me to |
| 1053 | spare no labour or expence in rendering this part |
| 1054 | of the work as perfect as circumstances would |
| 1055 | allow. |
| 1056 | The Laterculus or Canon of the Kings of |
| 1057 | Thebes,* was compiled from the archives of that |
| 1058 | city, by Eratosthenes, the librarian of Ptolemzus |
| 1059 | Philadelphus. |
| 1060 | It is followed by the Old Egyptian |
| 1061 | Chronicle, with a Latin version of the same, |
| 1062 | from the Excerpta Barbara, and another from the |
| 1063 | Armenian Chronicle of Eusebius: they contain |
| 1064 | a summary of the dynasties of Egypt. |
| 1065 | ‘To these |
| 1066 | succeed the Egyptian dynasties of Manetho,t |
| 1067 | whose introductory letter to king Ptolemeus, |
| 1068 | given in a subsequent page,} explains the nature |
| 1069 | of his work, and the materials from whence it |
| 1070 | was compiled. |
| 1071 | I have placed the six different |
| 1072 | versions of the Dynasties of Manetho that are |
| 1073 | extant confronting each other. |

| 1088 | litate comparison. |
| 1089 | JI have next given a very im- |
| 1090 | portant Canon,* the first part of which, from |
| 1091 | ‘Mestraim to the end of the seventeenth dynasty, |
| 1092 | — |
| 1093 | is preserved by Syncellus only: from the begin- |
| 1094 | ning of the eighteenth it is continued also in the |
| 1095 | fragments of Eusebius: and from hence to the con- |
| 1096 | clusion, four different versions of it will be found. |
| 1097 | \To these are added the Canons of all the kings |
| 1098 | of Egypt, mentioned by Diodorus Siculus} and |
| 1099 | Herodotus.{ |
| 1100 | They were originally compiled by |
| 1101 | Scaliger, but 1 have corrected them and given |
| 1102 | © |
| 1103 | them with several very important additions in |
| 1104 | the original words of the authors, instead of in the |
| 1105 | words of Scaliger himself. |
| 1106 | ‘They are followed by |
| 1107 | the Canon of Theophilus Antiochenus.{ |
| 1108 | And |
| 1109 | after several very important chronological ex- |
| 1110 | tracts|| upon the antiquities of Egypt, I have com- |
| 1111 | pleted the Dynasties, with a Canon of the early |
| 1112 | Egyptian, Chaldean, and Assyrian Kings, from |
| 1113 | the Syriac Chronicle of Bar-hebreeus: |
| 1114 | 4 which I |

| 1116 | chonized by that author, and given them in the |

| 1118 | stead of adopting the Latinized names |
| 1119 | of the |

| 1129 | the work, no less than nineteen catalogues of the |
| 1130 | Egyptian kings, with all the various readings |
| 1131 | that occur in the different versions of the same. |
| 1132 | They have been compiled with the greatest care, |
| 1133 | and I have purposely abstained from all reference |
| 1134 | to the Hieroglyphics, that I might not be misled |
| 1135 | by any preconceived opinion. |
| 1136 | Ata time, when indefatigable research is every |
| 1137 | day bringing to light new and interesting circum- |
| 1138 | stances, it would be absurd. to attempt to give |
| 1139 | any thing but the roughest outline of Egyptian |
| 1140 | history. |
| 1141 | I shall merely observe, then, that after |
| 1142 | the dispersion from Babel, the children of Miz- |
| 1143 | raim went off to Egypt, of which they appear to |
| 1144 | have continued some time in undisturbed posses- |
| 1145 | sion. |
| 1146 | Menes Misor or Mestraim, the Mizraim |
| 1147 | of the Scriptures, and planter of the nation, is |
| 1148 | naturally placed as the first sovereign of the united |
| 1149 | realm, at the head of all the catalogues. |
| 1150 | And |
| 1151 | perhaps the dominion of Athothis was equally |
| 1152 | extensive ;. for his name occurs in the Laterculus |
| 1153 | of. Eratosthenes, and as the Thoth or Taautus of |
| 1154 | Sanchoniatho.. |
| 1155 | After him the country seems to |
| 1156 | have been divided into several independent mo- |
| 1157 | narchies, some of whose princes may perhaps be |
| 1158 | found among the fourteen first dynasties. That the |
| 1159 | country was so divided, and that the first dynasties |
| 1160 | were not considered successive by the ancients, we |
| 1161 | have the authority of Artapanus* and Eusebius. |

| 1167 | The first historical fragment of Manetho,* |
| 1168 | from Josephus, gives an account of the invasion |
| 1169 | and expulsion of a race of foreigners, who were |
| 1170 | styled Hycsos or Shepherd kings; whose princes — |
| 1171 | are identified with the seventeenth dynasty of all |
| 1172 | the Canons except that given by Syncellus as the |
| 1173 | canon of Africanus, in which they are placed as |
| 1174 | the fifteenth. |
| 1175 | Of what family they were, whence |
| 1176 | they came, and to what country they retired, have |
| 1177 | been the subjects of almost as many hypotheses |
| 1178 | -as writers; I shall not venture a remark upon a |
| 1179 | problem, of which there is every reason shortly |
| 1180 | to expect a satisfactory solution. |
| 1181 | Josephus and |
| 1182 | the Fathers confound them with the Israelites, |
| 1183 | who appear rather to be referred to by the second |
| 1184 | fragmentt as the lepers, who were so cruelly ill- |
| 1185 | treated by the Egyptians, and afterwards laid |
| 1186 | waste the country, assisted by a second invasion |
| 1187 | of the Shepherds. |
| 1188 | To these fragments I have |
| 1189 | subjoined six{ other very curious notices of the |
| 1190 | exodus of the Israelites and the final expulsion of |
| 1191 | the Shepherds ; which events appear to have been |
| 1192 | connected with one another, as well as with the |
| 1193 | emigration of the Danaan colonies to Greece, |
| 1194 | not only in time, but by circumstances of a poli- |
| 1195 | tical nature,{ and to have occurred during the |
| 1196 | sovereignty of the eighteenth dynasty. |
| 1197 | Tacitus |
| 1198 | has also noticed the exodus, but in terms evi- |

| 1204 | dently copied from some of those which I have |
| 1205 | given: we have but few and scanty notices of the |
| 1206 | kings of Egypt, even in Diodorus and Hero- |
| 1207 | dotus. |
| 1208 | Its conquest by Nebucchadnezzar is. re- |
| 1209 | lated by Berossus,* and after two or three. tem- |
| 1210 | porary gleams of independence, it sunk at. length |
| 1211 | into a province of the Persian empire, and from |
| 1212 | that day to the present, according to the denun- |
| 1213 | ciation of the prophet,t Egypt has been. the |
| 1214 | basest of kingdoms, |
| 1215 | and under the yoke of |
| 1216 | strangers. |
| 1217 | The Tyrian Annals are fragments which were |
| 1218 | quoted by Josephus from the lost histories of |
| 1219 | Dius and Menander. They agree perfectly with |
| 1220 | the scriptural accounts, and furnish some par- |
| 1221 | ticulars in addition. |
| 1222 | The correspondence of |
| 1223 | Solomon and Hiram, the foundation of Carthage, |
| 1224 | and the invasion, conquests, and repulse of Sal- |
| 1225 | manasar; the siege of Tyre by Nebuchadnessar, |
| 1226 | and its subsequent government under judges, are |
| 1227 | historical additions of great interest and import- |
| 1228 | ance. |
| 1229 | The Periplus of Hanno is an account of the |
| 1230 | earliest voyage of discovery extant. |
| 1231 | It was taken |
| 1232 | from an original and apparently official document |
| 1233 | which was suspended in the temple of Saturn, at |
| 1234 | Carthage. |
| 1235 | Falconer has edited it as a separate |

| 1239 | work, and gives two dissertations on it ; the first, |
| 1240 | explanatory of its contents; and the second, a |
| 1241 | refutation of Dodwell’s reflections, on its authen- |
| 1242 | ticity. |
| 1243 | Ihave followed Falconer both in his text |
| 1244 | | |
| 1245 | and translation. |
| 1246 | With respect to its age, Fal- |
| 1247 | coner agrees with Bougainville in referring it to |
| 1248 | the sixth century before the Christian era. |
| 1249 | The Periplus is prefaced by a few lines, re- |
| 1250 | citing a decree of the. Carthaginians, |
| 1251 | relative |
| 1252 | to the voyage and its objects: |
| 1253 | and is then |
| 1254 | continued by the commander, |
| 1255 | or one of his |
| 1256 | companions, |
| 1257 | as a narrative, which commences |
| 1258 | from the time the fleet had cleared the Straits of |
| 1259 | Gibraltar. |
| 1260 | Bougainville has given a chart of the |
| 1261 | voyage, which may be found, together with the |
| 1262 | corresponding maps of Ptolemeus and D’ Anville, |
| 1263 | in Falconer’s treatise. |
| 1264 | It may be sufficient, how- |
| 1265 | ever, to remark that ‘Thymiaterium, the first of |
| 1266 | the colonies planted'by Hanno, occupies a posi- |
| 1267 | tion. very nearly, perhaps precisely the same with |
| 1268 | that of the present commercial city.of Mogadore: |
| 1269 | The promontory of Soloeis corresponds with Cape |
| 1270 | Bojador, nearly opposite to the Canaries. |
| 1271 | Cari- |
| 1272 | contichos, Gytte, Acra, Melitta and Arambys |
| 1273 | are placed between Cape Bojador and the Rio |
| 1274 | d’Ouro which is supposed to be the Lixus. |
| 1275 | Cerne is laid down as the island of Arguin under |
| 1276 | the southern Cape Blanco: the river Chretes |
| 1277 | perhaps is the St. John, and the next large |
| 1278 | river mentioned is the Senegal. |
| 1279 | Cape Palmas |
| p. 43 | |
| 1280 | XX1x |
| 1281 | and ‘Cape Three Points, are supposed to corres- |
| 1282 | pond respectively with the Western and Southern |
| 1283 | Horns, and some island in the bight of Benin, |
| 1284 | with that of Gorille. |
| 1285 | Vossius, however, sup- |
| 1286 | poses the Western Horn to be Cape Verd, and |
| 1287 | the Southern, Cape Palmas, in which case the |
| 1288 | Sierra Leone will answer to the Ochema Theon |
| 1289 | the Chariot of the Gods. |
| 1290 | The description of the Troglodyte, as men |
| 1291 | of-a different form or appearance, may imply-a |
| 1292 | change from the Moresco to the Negro race, |
| 1293 | Some passages, quoted by Falconer from Bruce’s |
| 1294 | _ travels, explain the extraordinary fires and nightly |
| 1295 | merriment which alarmed the voyagers, as cus- |
| 1296 | toms common among many of the negro tribes, |
| 1297 | and which had repeatedly fallen within the scope |
| 1298 | of his own observations. |
| 1299 | The Gorille are sup- |
| 1300 | posed to be: large monkeys or wild men as the |
| 1301 | NaMe éybpono &ypos May in fact import. |
| 1302 | The Periplus is followed by a-strange account |
| 1303 | of the African settlements, from the books of |
| 1304 | Hiempsal king. |
| 1305 | of Numidia, preserved by Sallust. |
| 1306 | Of the Indian fragments of Megasthenes, ‘the |
| 1307 | most remarkable ‘has already been referred to. |
| 1308 | In the two great divisions of the Philosophical |
| 1309 | sects, into the Brahmanes and ‘Germanes, we |
| 1310 | may doubtless recognize the predecessors of ‘the |
| 1311 | *p. 224. |
| p. 44 | |
| 1312 | XXX |
| 1313 | present Brachmans and Buddhists of Hindostan. |
| 1314 | They are likewise mentioned by Clitarchus * as |
| 1315 | the Brahmanes and Pramne. The castes of India |
| 1316 | are also described at length, | and have continued |
| 1317 | with some variations to the present day. |
| 1318 | The an-— |
| 1319 | tiquity of such a division is very great, and per- |
| 1320 | haps originated at the dispersion, as it prevailed |
| 1321 | chiefly among the Ionic nations, while the Scythic |
| 1322 | tribes prided themselves upon their independence, |
| 1323 | and the nobility of the whole race. Megasthenes |
| 1324 | is reputed to have been a Persian, and an officer in |
| 1325 | the army of Alexander in his expedition to India, |
| 1326 | and was employed upon several negociations of |
| 1327 | consequence. |
| 1328 | I have next given two short notices of some |
| 1329 | celebrated |
| 1330 | islands in the Atlantic and Indian |
| 1331 | oceans. |
| 1332 | The first,{ upon the Atlantic island, is |
| 1333 | quoted by Proclus, from the Ethiopic history of |
| 1334 | Marcellus, in illustration of the passages of Plato |
| 1335 | in the Timeus relative to the same. |
| 1336 | Some have |
| 1337 | looked upon the relation as worthy of credit, and |
| 1338 | confirmed by the broken nature of all the islands, |
| 1339 | which lie scattered between the old and the new |
| 1340 | world, regarding them as relics of a former tract |
| 1341 | which has been absorbed. |
| 1342 | The second fragment |
| 1343 | | |
| 1344 | from Euemerus may relate to the islands in the |
| 1345 | Indian Archipelago ; though it is highly probable |
| 1346 | * 9, 220. |

| 1350 | that both may refer only to the White island of |
| 1351 | the West, so celebrated in the Mythological le- |
| 1352 | gends of almost all nations, and in none more |
| 1353 | than in the antiquities of the British islands. |
| 1354 | As J profess not to enter into the details, but |
| 1355 | merely to provide as it were the raw materials, I |
| 1356 | shall dwell but little upon Chronology. |
| 1357 | By far |
| 1358 | the most authentic record that has come down to |
| 1359 | | |
| 1360 | us is the Canon of Ptolemeus.* |
| 1361 | It commences |
| 1362 | from the Chaldean era of Nabonasar, and is |
| 1363 | continued to the conclusion of the reign of Anto- |
| 1364 | ninus Pius. |
| 1365 | In calculating its chronology, how- |
| 1366 | ever, it must be observed, that although it starts |
| 1367 | from this Chaldean era, its years are the Sothoic |
| 1368 | years of Egypt, consisting only of three hundred |
| 1369 | and sixty-five days, without any intercalation. |
| 1370 | Among the Chronological fragments at the end |
| 1371 | of the work will be found the passage of Censo- |
| 1372 | rinus,f so important in determining the celebrated |
| 1373 | epochs of ancient history; and likewise an ex- |
| 1374 | tract from Theon Alexandrinus,{ from the ma- |
| 1375 | nuscripts of the King of France, partly cited |
| 1376 | by Larcher in his translation of Herodotus.§ For |
| 1377 | the complete extract, I beg leave to return my |
| 1378 | thanks to Mons. Champollion Figeac, and Mons. |
| 1379 | Hase librarian to the king. |

| 1387 | the work: some also are collected at the end of |
| 1388 | the Dynasties.* |
| 1389 | I have added also two ‘short |
| 1390 | notices: of the Sarus and: Nerus: ofthe Chal- |
| 1391 | deans. : |
| 1392 | . |
| 1393 | It is remarkable, that the three great eras of |
| 1394 | ancient: history commence within thirty years of |
| 1395 | one another, and:are commonly fixed: |
| 1396 | The first Olympiad, B.C. 777. |
| 1397 | The foundation of Rome, B. C..753. |
| 1398 | And the era of Nabonasar, B. €. 747. |
| 1399 | The commencement of the reigniof Diocle- |
| 1400 | sian is determined by the observed and calculated |
| 1401 | _ |
| 1402 | eclipses to bein the year A. D.:284. The begin- |
| 1403 | ning of the:great Sothoic period |
| 1404 | of 1641, Sothoie |
| 1405 | or vague years, equivalent to 1640:°Julian years, |

| 1423 | From Babel, the centre of their abominations, |
| 1424 | the heathens carried off the same objects of ado- |
| 1425 | ration, the same superstitious observances, and |
| 1426 | the same.legendary tales, which, however varied |
| 1427 | and confused, may without difficulty be identified |
| 1428 | ‘throughout |
| 1429 | the world. |
| 1430 | Among the pastoral |
| 1431 | tribes, the Scythic doctrines almost universally |
| 1432 | prevailed ; yet in subsequent times they also fell |
| 1433 | into idolatry : while the lonic nations carried their |
| 1434 | additions and corruptions to such a length, that |
| 1435 | the original and more simple doctrines became |
| 1436 | obliterated among the vulgar; and were retained |
| 1437 | only by the philosophers and priests, and some- |
| 1438 | times were even re-imported from abroad. |
| 1439 | The |
| 1440 | more elaborate corruptions of lonism appear to |
| 1441 | have prevailed originally in the Iranian territories |
| 1442 | only, and to have passed to India and to Egypt, |
| 1443 | to have spread themselves with civilization over |
| 1444 | Greece, and subsequently over the whole Roman |
| 1445 | world. |
| 1446 | By foreign conquest and other circum- |
| 1447 | stances, the two systems were often amalgamated |
| 1448 | into one. |
| 1449 | The more elaborate and corrupted |
| 1450 | form of lonism and idolatry would catch the |
| 1451 | attention of the casual observer as the religion of |
| 1452 | the land; while the deeper doctrines, which re- |
| 1453 | tained much of their primitive simplicity, were |
| 1454 | wrapped in mystery, and communicated only to |
| 1455 | the initiated. |
| 1456 | | |
| 1457 | Most nations, in process of time, became more |
| 1458 | attached to particular parts, and retained but |
| 1459 | | |

| 1462 | fragments of the general system. |
| 1463 | But it is still |
| 1464 | in existence, and preserved almost entire, both in |
| 1465 | its Scythic and Ionic form, as the Buddhism and |
| 1466 | Brahmenism of Hindostan. |
| 1467 | By comparing all |
| 1468 | the varied legends of the west and east in con- |
| 1469 | junction, we may obtain. the following outline of |
| 1470 | the theology of the ancients. |
| 1471 | It recognizes, as the primary elements of all |
| 1472 | things, two independent principles, of the nature |
| 1473 | of male and female. |
| 1474 | And these, in mystic union |
| 1475 | as the soul and body, constitute the great Her- |
| 1476 | maphroditic deity, the One, the Universe itself, |
| 1477 | consisting still of the two separate elements of its |
| 1478 | — |
| 1479 | composition, modified, though combined in one |
| 1480 | individual, of which all things were regarded but |
| 1481 | as parts. |
| 1482 | From the two, or more frequently |
| 1483 | from the male, proceeded three sons or Hypos- |
| 1484 | tases ; which, when examined severally, are each |
| 1485 | one and the same with the principle from which |
| 1486 | they sprung: but when viewed conjointly, they |
| 1487 | constitute a triad, emanating from a fourth yet |
| 1488 | older divinity, who, by a mysterious act of self- |
| 1489 | triplication, becomes three, while he yet remains |
| 1490 | but one, each member of the triad being ulti- |
| 1491 | mately resolvable into the monad.* |
| 1492 | With this is |
| 1493 | connected the doctrine of a succession of similar |
| 1494 | worlds. |
| 1495 | At the conclusion |
| 1496 | of each revolving |
| 1497 | period, the world is dissolved, |
| 1498 | alternately by |
| 1499 | * See Faber-at length upon this subject, Pag. Id. Vol. II. |

| 1502 | flood and fire ; and all its varied forms and parts |
| 1503 | are absorbed into the two primeval principles, |
| 1504 | which then remain in the loveliness of their exist- |
| 1505 | ence. |
| 1506 | After a certain interval their re-union |
| 1507 | | |
| 1508 | commences, and with it the reconstruction of |
| 1509 | another world. |
| 1510 | As before, the first production of |
| 1511 | this world is the triad, and the same heroes and |
| 1512 | persons re-appear ; and the same events are again |
| 1513 | transacted, till the time arrives for another dis- |
| 1514 | solution. |
| 1515 | Such was the system in its original |
| 1516 | form ; it was a foundation of materialism, upon |
| 1517 | which was raised a superstructure of idolatry. |
| 1518 | The most remarkable feature in the heathen |
| 1519 | theology is the multiplicity of its gods. |
| 1520 | The |
| 1521 | easy temper of polytheism, as it has been called, |
| 1522 | hesitated not to adopt the divinities of the sur- |
| 1523 | rounding nations; while the deification, not only of |
| 1524 | heroes and kings, but of the virtues and vices, |
| 1525 | with the genii of the woods and waters, moun- |
| 1526 | tains and cities, contributed to introduce new |
| 1527 | and strange inmates into the Pantheon. |
| 1528 | But if |
| 1529 | we eject these modern intruders, if we restore to |
| 1530 | their original seats the imported deities, such as |
| 1531 | Pan to Arcadia, Hermes to Egypt, Osiris to |
| 1532 | Memphis, Hercules to Tyre, and Dionysus to. |
| 1533 | India ; and if we investigate the origin of each, |
| 1534 | we shall find every nation, notwithstanding the |
| 1535 | variety of names, acknowledging the same deities |
| 1536 | and the same system of theology: and, however |
| 1537 | humble any of the deities may appear in the |
| p. 50 | |
| 1538 | XXXVi |
| 1539 | Pantheons of Greece and Rome, each, who has |
| 1540 | any claim to antiquity, will be found ultimately, |
| 1541 | if not immediately, resolvable into the original |
| 1542 | God or Goddess, into one or other of the two- |
| 1543 | primeval principles. |
| 1544 | | |
| 1545 | In conducting such an investigation, a very |
| 1546 | singular circumstance presents itself in the mani- |
| 1547 | fold character of these deities. |
| 1548 | Their human or |
| 1549 | terrestrial appearance, as mere mortals deified is |
| 1550 | the most obvious; as the sun, moon, elements, |
| 1551 | and powers of nature, they assume a celestial or |
| 1552 | physical aspect. |
| 1553 | And if we turn to the writings |
| 1554 | — |
| 1555 | of the philosophers, we shall find them sustain- |
| 1556 | ing a character more abstract and metaphysical. |
| 1557 | Yet under all these different forms, the same |
| 1558 | general system is preserved. |
| 1559 | In his terrestrial character, the chief Hero |
| 1560 | God, under whatever name, is claimed by every |
| 1561 | nation as |
| 1562 | its progenitor and founder. |
| 1563 | And |
| 1564 | not only is he celebrated as the king of that |
| 1565 | country in particular, but of the whole world. |
| 1566 | He is exposed to some alarming danger from the |
| 1567 | sea, or an evil principle or monster by which the |
| 1568 | sea is represented. |
| 1569 | He is nevertheless rescued by |
| 1570 | some friendly female aid, sometimes concealed in |
| 1571 | a cavern or in the moon, or preserved in a death- |
| 1572 | like sleep, borne upon a snake, or floating on an |
| 1573 | island or a lotus, though more frequently in a boat |
| 1574 | er ark. |
| 1575 | At length he awakens from his slumber, |
| 1576 | subdues his enemy, and lands upon a mountain. |
| p. 51 | |
| 1577 | XXXvVii |
| 1578 | He then reorganizes the world, and becomes him- |
| 1579 | self the father primarily of three sons, and through |
| 1580 | them, of the human race; not unfrequently with |
| 1581 | some allusions to the dove and rainbow. |
| 1582 | In fact, |
| 1583 | in his human character he was the great father of |
| 1584 | mankind ; but he may not only be identified with |
| 1585 | Noah but with Adam likewise. |
| 1586 | The one was |
| 1587 | looked upon as the re-appearance of the other, |
| 1588 | and both an incarnation of the Deity. |
| 1589 | In his immediate celestial character the God |
| 1590 | is universally held to be the Sun; but the cha- |
| 1591 | racter of the great Goddess is of a more complex |
| 1592 | description. |
| 1593 | As the companion of the man, she |
| 1594 | is the ark; which was regarded not only as his |
| 1595 | consort, but his daughter, as the work of his own |
| 1596 | hands; and his mother, from whose womb he |
| 1597 | again emerged, as an infant, to a second life; and |
| 1598 | his preserver during the catastrophe of the de- |
| 1599 | luge. As the companion of the Sun she is either |
| 1600 | the earth or moon: not that the distinctions be- |
| 1601 | © |
| 1602 | tween the human and celestial characters are |
| 1603 | accurately maintained; for they are so strangely |
| 1604 | blended together, that the adventures applicable |
| 1605 | to one are frequently, and sometimes purposely, |
| 1606 | misapplied to the other. |
| 1607 | Thus, whilst the Man |
| 1608 | _ |
| 1609 | is said to have entered into, been concealed in, |
| 1610 | and have again issued from the ark, the moon, |
| 1611 | and the earth, indifferently, the Sun is fabled to |
| 1612 | have been plunged into the ocean, to have sailed |
| 1613 | upon a lotus, to have taken refuge in a floating |
| p. 52 | |
| 1614 | XXXVill |
| 1615 | island, and to have dwelt upon a sacred mountain |
| 1616 | left dry by the retiring flood.* |
| 1617 | | |
| 1618 | It has been often remarked, that the Theo- |
| 1619 | gonies and. Cosmogonies of the heathens were — |
| 1620 | the same. |
| 1621 | In addition to those naturally con- |
| 1622 | stituting a part of the work, I have given the |
| 1623 | most remarkable of the Hermetic, Orphic, and |
| 1624 | Pythagorean accounts; which will be found, with |
| 1625 | the celebrated collection from Damascius, under |
| 1626 | a separate head.{ |
| 1627 | By comparing these with the |
| 1628 | Cosmogonies of Sanchoniatho, Berossus, and the |
| 1629 | rest, we may, without much difficulty, arrive at |
| 1630 | the following conclusion: |
| 1631 | that the Ether and |
| 1632 | Chaos, or,, in the language of the Philosophers, |
| 1633 | Mind and Matter, were the two primeval, eternal, |
| 1634 | and independent principles of the universe; the |
| 1635 | one regarded as a vivifying and intellectual prin- |
| 1636 | ciple, the other as a watery Chaos, boundless, and |
| 1637 | without form: both which continued for a time |
| 1638 | without motion, and in darkness. |
| 1639 | By a mystic |
| 1640 | union of the two was formed the great Herma-. |
| 1641 | phroditic deity, the One, the universal World; of |
| 1642 | which the Chaotic matter presently became the |
| 1643 | body, and the Etherial Intellectual principle the |
| 1644 | soul. |
| 1645 | As soon as the union. had commenced, |
| 1646 | from the Ether sprung forth the triad, Phanes or |
| 1647 | Eros, a triple. divinity, the most prominent cha- |
| 1648 | racter of which was Light. |
| 1649 | He was the same |
| 1650 | with the Soul of the World, and the Intelligible |
| 1651 | * See Faber, Pag. Id. |
| 1652 | > p. 283, and following. |
| p. 53 | |
| 1653 | XXXIX |
| 1654 | triad so largely insisted upon by the Platonists: |
| 1655 | The gross chaotic elements of Earth and Water |
| 1656 | were formed into the terraqueous globe, while the |
| 1657 | disposing Ether, in the character of Phanes, un- |
| 1658 | der some three of the conditions of Light, Air, |
| 1659 | Heat, Fire, Ether, Flame, or Spirit, composed a |
| 1660 | physical trinity concentred in the Sun, the soul |
| 1661 | and ruler of the world. |
| 1662 | Or, according to the |
| 1663 | more refined speculations, it consisted of a trinity |
| 1664 | of mental powers, in which the Understanding, |
| 1665 | Reason or Intellect, the Soul, Passions, Feelings |
| 1666 | or Affections, Power, Counsel or Will, are va- |
| 1667 | riously combined. |
| 1668 | Viewed, |
| 1669 | therefore, |
| 1670 | either |
| 1671 | under a physical or metaphysical aspect, it is |
| 1672 | still a triad subordinate to, and emanating from |
| 1673 | the more ancient Intellectual Ether, and into |
| 1674 | which each person of the triad’ is again re- |
| 1675 | solvable.* |
| 1676 | With respect to the Physical triad, by com- |
| 1677 | paring the heathen accounts with similar passages |
| 1678 | in the Scriptures, though not decisive, yet so |
| 1679 | preponderating does the evidence appear to me |
| 1680 | upon this point, that if the school of Hutchinson |
| 1681 | had not failed to establish their very elegant hy- |
| 1682 | pothesis, as to the fact that the Fire, Light, and |
| 1683 | Spirit or Air, were only three different condi- |
| 1684 | tions of one and the same etherial fluid, appear- |
| 1685 | ing as Fire at the orb of the Sun, as Light pro- |
| 1686 | _ |

| 1689 | ceeding from it, and as Spirit returning to it, |
| 1690 | I should not have hesitated to subscribe to the |
| 1691 | opinion that such was the original trinity of the |
| 1692 | Gentiles; a triad, nevertheless, subordinate to a |
| 1693 | monad, which existed in the form of Ether pre- |
| 1694 | viously to its assuming such conditions. |
| 1695 | The Metaphysical speculations of the ancients |
| 1696 | upon this subject can only be derived by analo- |
| 1697 | gical reasoning from contemplation of the micro- |
| 1698 | cosm of man. |
| 1699 | To point out the close analogy |
| 1700 | preserved in this particular between the Meta- |
| 1701 | physical and Physical system before explained J — |
| 1702 | would observe, that Man is a being compounded |
| 1703 | of an Intellectual, and of a Material substance, |
| 1704 | both of which were conceived by the ancients to |
| 1705 | have pre-existed, before they became united in |
| 1706 | the compound individual animal, the Man. When |
| 1707 | thus united, they appear to have conceived a |
| 1708 | triad of intellectual powers, the Intellect, the |
| 1709 | Affections: Feelings or Emotions, and the Will |
| 1710 | or Power of action. |
| 1711 | But for further illustration |
| 1712 | of these matters, and for such proof as can be |
| 1713 | produced, I must refer to the disquisition at the |
| 1714 | end. |
| 1715 | Upon this subject, therefore, I cannot agree |
| 1716 | with Mr. Faber in supposing that the trinita- |
| 1717 | rian speculations of the Heathens originated in |
| 1718 | the comeidence of Adam and Noah being each |
| 1719 | the father of three sons; |
| 1720 | for of the three dis- |
| 1721 | tinct analogical systems the Metaphysical, of the |
| p. 55 | |
| 1722 | xhi |
| 1723 | Mind with its Faculties, and Matter,—the Physi- |
| 1724 | eal, of the Ether with its conditions, and the |
| 1725 | Chaos,—and the Human, of the Patriarch with |
| 1726 | his three sons, and the universal mother the Ark |
| 1727 | or Earth,—the last analogy is not only the most |
| 1728 | imperfect, but according to all historical ac- |
| 1729 | counts, Demonolatry was introduced subsequently |
| 1730 | _to the worship of nature and the elements. |
| 1731 | From the widely dispersed traditions upon |
| 1732 | the subject, it is manifest that the circumstances |
| 1733 | of the creation and the deluge were well known |
| 1734 | to all mankind previously to the dispersion. And |
| 1735 | the writings of Moses give to the chosen people, |
| 1736 | not so much a new revelation as a correct, authen- |
| 1737 | ticated and inspired account of circumstances, |
| 1738 | which had then become partially obscured by |
| 1739 | time and abused by superstition. |
| 1740 | The formless |
| 1741 | watery Chaos and the Etherial substance of the |
| 1742 | heavens, enfolding and passing over. its surface |
| 1743 | as a mighty wind, are the first principles both of |
| 1744 | the sacred and profane cosmogonies; but they |
| 1745 | are reclaimed by Moses as the materials, created |
| 1746 | by the immediate agency of an Almighty power. |
| 1747 | The subsequent process of formation so com- |
| 1748 | pletely corresponds in both systems, that if they |
| 1749 | _ were not borrowed the one from the other, (a po- |
| 1750 | sition which cannot be maintained,) they must |
| 1751 | each have been ultimately derived from the com- |
| 1752 | mon source of revelation. |
| 1753 | Similar considerations |
| 1754 | upon the traditions of a Trinity, so universal |
| 1755 | o |

| 1757 | xlii |
| 1758 | among the nations, and an examination of what |
| 1759 | that Trinity was composed, forces upon me the |
| 1760 | — |
| 1761 | conviction, that the trinitarian doctrine, as it is |
| 1762 | now believed, was one of the original and funda- |
| 1763 | mental tenets of the Patriarchal religion; that the |
| 1764 | analogy between the Microcosm, as pointed out, |
| 1765 | and the then current accounts of the creation, |
| 1766 | became the stumbling block, which set mankind |
| 1767 | to refine upon the truth; that hence they fell into |
| 1768 | the errors of attributing eternity to matter, : of |
| 1769 | placing a Monad above the Trinity, with the |
| 1770 | Pantheistic opinion that the Deity was no other |
| 1771 | than the universe itself.. |
| 1772 | The doctrine of the |
| 1773 | — |
| 1774 | succession of worlds, the Metempsychosis, and |
| 1775 | Demonolatry would follow naturally enough by |
| 1776 | an extension of their system from the particular |
| 1777 | circumstances of the creation to those attendant |
| 1778 | upon the deluge. |
| 1779 | By the pride of false philo- |
| 1780 | sophy they forsook the truth of revelation, and |
| 1781 | sunk into materialism, into the worship of the |
| 1782 | elements, of man and beasts, and into idolatry |
| 1783 | with all its:-attendant abominations. |
| 1784 | ‘When |
| 1785 | they knew God, they glorified: him not as ‘God; |
| 1786 | neither were thankful; but became vain in their |
| 1787 | imaginations, and their foolish heart was’ dark- |
| 1788 | ened. |
| 1789 | Professing themselves |
| 1790 | to be wise, they |
| 1791 | became fools; and changed the glory of the in- |
| 1792 | corruptible: God into: an: image made like ‘to |
| 1793 | corruptible man, and. to birds, and four-footed |
| 1794 | beasts, and creeping things. |
| 1795 | Wherefore, God |
| p. 57 | |
| 1796 | xlin |
| 1797 | gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of |
| 1798 | their own hearts.’* |
| 1799 | To reclaim a world so fallen, the great mani- |
| 1800 | festations of the Almighty from time to time have |
| 1801 | taken place, not only at the most civilized |
| 1802 | as |
| 1803 | well as celebrated periods of history, but upon |
| 1804 | the spots then best calculated for the general dis- |
| 1805 | semination of truth among the heathens. |
| 1806 | The |
| 1807 | geographical situation of Palestine, |
| 1808 | chosen it |
| 1809 | may be for the seat of universal empire, is the |
| 1810 | most remarkable upon earth for the facility of |
| 1811 | communication |
| 1812 | which |
| 1813 | it affords |
| 1814 | with every |
| 1815 | quarter of the globe. |
| 1816 | At the time of the Advent, |
| 1817 | it formed as it were the boundary of the rival |
| 1818 | empires of Rome and Parthia, subject to Rome, |
| 1819 | but holding an intimate connexion with its colo- |
| 1820 | nial offspring within the Parthian dominions. |
| 1821 | And its situation was at that time not more ex- |
| 1822 | cellently adapted for the universal |
| 1823 | diffusion. of |
| 1824 | the Gospel, both in the East and West, than |
| 1825 | it was for the general instruction of mankind, |
| 1826 | in times of old, when it formed so considerable |
| 1827 | a part of the high road of communication between |
| 1828 | the empires of Egypt and Assyria. |

| 1864 | must have been attended with at least some tem- |
| 1865 | porary effect upon the religious and philosophical: |
| 1866 | sentiments of the East. |
| 1867 | And such an effect may. |
| 1868 | be clearly traced in the very general reformation. |
| 1869 | of the systems and superstitions which about this |
| 1870 | period took place. |
| 1871 | Among the Persians, themselves |
| 1872 | a Scythic. |
| 1873 | people, this reformation appears to have re-ani- |
| 1874 | mated their zeal and enmity against the temples. |
| 1875 | and idolatry of their Ionian rivals. |
| 1876 | It may also |
| 1877 | have led them to convert the two independent |

| 1879 | principles of Mind and. Matter. into. spiritual |
| 1880 | agents in opposition to one another, and to have |
| 1881 | revived the unmingled worship of the Sun and |
| 1882 | Fire, at first but as an emblem and image of the |
| 1883 | Supreme, though it soon again degenerated into |
| 1884 | the Sabaism of old. |
| 1885 | The reformation may be |
| 1886 | traced through Assyria, India, China and Egypt, |
| 1887 | and.in those amendments and refinements: which |
| 1888 | were shortly afterwards imported by. Pythagoras |
| 1889 | into Greece. |
| 1890 | A:-summary of the i aiidiseaibae doctrines. will |
| 1891 | be found in the commencement of the celebrated. |
| 1892 | treatise |
| 1893 | of ,Timeus Locrus.* |
| 1894 | It maybe observed, |
| 1895 | that the Pythagorean. speculations. havea tacit |
| 1896 | reference to the ancient classification of Causes;.as: |
| 1897 | the Efficient, the Formal,or;Ideal,,, the. Material |
| 1898 | and the Final. |

| 1902 | of. Mind, and,, Matter, |

| 1904 | world of Forms or abstract Ideas, to, which is: |
| 1905 | attributed an eternal subsistence, if not, an. exis-; |

| 1908 | great final cause, became the subject of perpetual, |
| 1909 | discussion. and inquiry among all succeeding -phi-, |
| 1910 | losophers. |
| 1911 | | |
| 1912 | The Forms and Matter were; now substituted, |
| 1913 | for the ancient Duad.; superior, to,.which. was; |

| 1916 | . |
| 1917 | placed the Efficient Cause as the Monad, Deity, |
| 1918 | or Demiurgus. |
| 1919 | This Duad was, nevertheless, re- |
| 1920 | garded as two eternal and independent principles, |
| 1921 | and by their combination the Deity formed the | |
| 1922 | Sensible world, a living animal, composed of soul |
| 1923 | and body. |
| 1924 | Subordinate to the duad is the Py- |
| 1925 | thagorean Triad, occupying the same. |
| 1926 | relative |
| 1927 | situation with respect to the duad as in the more |
| 1928 | ancient systems. |
| 1929 | By this introduction of the |
| 1930 | Ideal world, and the elevation of the deity above |
| 1931 | the duad, the system lost something of the gross |
| 1932 | materialism which had hitherto obtained, but it |
| 1933 | | |
| 1934 | lost, at the same time,. all knowledge of the an- |
| 1935 | cient triad, which was now replaced by such |
| 1936 | triads as were more conformable to the Pytha- |
| 1937 | gorean mode, and of which the persons were often |
| 1938 | subordinate |
| 1939 | to, or comprehended within each |
| 1940 | other, as genera and species.*. |
| 1941 | | |
| 1942 | The doctrines of Plato differ only in refine- |
| 1943 | ment from the preceding. |
| 1944 | If we admit the Par- |
| 1945 | menides and the Timeus to embrace his com- |
| 1946 | plete system, God and Matter, two originally in- |
| 1947 | dependent principles, are held to be, as it were, |
| 1948 | the extremities of that chain of being which com- |
| 1949 | poses the universe. |
| 1950 | Subordinate to the God, we |
| 1951 | have the Intelligible world of Ideas or the Forms, |
| 1952 | commencing, as the latter Platonists insist, with |
| 1953 | the Intelligible triad : but whether Plato regarded |
| 1954 | * See the Pythagorean fragments, p. 301. |
| p. 61 | |
| 1955 | xlvii |
| 1956 | this world of Ideas in the abstract as subsisting |
| 1957 | only within the mind of the Deity, or whether he |
| 1958 | attributed to it a distinct existence* without the |
| 1959 | Mind, comprehending different orders of divine |
| 1960 | super-essential beings, may well be questioned. |
| 1961 | When the Deity or Demiurgus thought proper to |
| 1962 | compose the world, he looked to this ideal world |
| 1963 | as the exemplar, in whose likeness he constructed |
| 1964 | his new work. |
| 1965 | He impressed the disordered |
| 1966 | material Chaos with the Forms, and rendered the |
| 1967 | world a living animal, after the pattern of its ideal |
| 1968 | prototype, consisting of a soul endued with Intel- |
| 1969 | lect, and. of a body of which all beings compre- |
| 1970 | hended in it, Gods Men Animals or’ material |
| 1971 | species, are but the concrete individuals, of which |
| 1972 | the abstract ideas unalterably subsist in the intel- |
| 1973 | ligible world. |
| 1974 | Though still supposed to continue |
| 1975 | in existence, the Deity, as in the more ancient |
| 1976 | systems, retires as effectually from the stage as |
| 1977 | did the ancient Ether when superseded by the |
| 1978 | Phanes. |
| 1979 | And all the mundane operations are |
| 1980 | carried on as before, by the Soul of the world. |
| 1981 | While the Stoics and other schools retained |
| 1982 | the ancient doctrines, and looked not further than |
| 1983 | * Existence, according |
| 1984 | to the ancients, implies essence ; |
| 1985 | whereas the Ideal world was deemed super-essential: but I am |
| 1986 | compelled to use the words to make myself understood ; for the |
| 1987 | English language has not been sufficiently accommodated to |
| 1988 | these metaphysical subtleties of the Greeks to supply the requi- |
| 1989 | site terms. |

| 1992 | the world itself, it is true that the Pythagoreans _ |
| 1993 | and Plato held.a God superior to the world; but |
| 1994 | it is extremely doubtful whether they entertained |
| 1995 | a sublimer conception of their great immediate |
| 1996 | efficient cause, the Soul of the world, or indeed |
| 1997 | of Soul in general, than the gross materialism of |
| 1998 | a subtile ether. |
| 1999 | They discouraged, likewise, the |
| 2000 | tenet of the succession of worlds; though it was |
| 2001 | subsequently revived by the later Platonists, by |
| 2002 | whom. the Deity was supposed, at the predestined |
| 2003 | time, to swallow up the world, first the sensible, |
| 2004 | then the Ideal, and lastly Phanes the Intelligible |
| 2005 | | |
| 2006 | triad, and to remain in the solitude of his unity. |
| 2007 | Much as has been said upon the Platonic |
| 2008 | trinity, 1 must confess that I.can find fewer traces |
| 2009 | of that doctrine in the writings of Plato than of |
| 2010 | his less refined predecessors, the mythologists. I |
| 2011 | have given such extracts as appear to me to |
| 2012 | relate to the subject, together with a fragment of . |
| 2013 | Amelius* which expressly mentions |
| 2014 | the three |
| 2015 | kings of Plato as identical with the Orphic trinity. |
| 2016 | Dr. Morgan, in his essay upon the subject, satis- |
| 2017 | factorily refutes the notion, that Plato regarded |
| 2018 | the Logos as the second person of the trinity :f |
| 2019 | * p. 305. |

| 2022 | “ Perfecting the visible world, which the word, the most divine |
| 2023 | of all things, made,” refers to a very different subject. |

| 2025 | inquiry in this part of the dialogue relates to the knowledge of |
| 2026 | number, without which it is asserted |

| 2030 | and upon this refutation he denies that Plato’ |
| 2031 | held the doctrine at all, more particularly, as from |
| 2032 | the time of Plato to that of Ammonius Saccas |
| 2033 | in the ‘third century, no disciple of his school |
| 2034 | seems to have been aware that such a doctrine |
| 2035 | was contained in his writings. |
| 2036 | Perhaps, how- |
| 2037 | ever, we may trace some obscure allusions to it |
| 2038 | in the beginning of the second hypothesis of the |
| 2039 | Parmenides and in the passages which I have |
| 2040 | reason; and if destitute of reason, |
| 2041 | he cannot attain wisdom. |
| 2042 | The God, which imparted to man the knowledge of numbers, is |
| 2043 | the Heaven, for there are eight powers contained in it akin to |
| 2044 | each other, that of the Sun, of the Moon, &c. to whom, he says, |
| 2045 | must be assigned equal honour— For let us not assign to one |
| 2046 | the honour of the year, to another the honour of the month, and |
| 2047 | to others none of that portion of time, in which each performs its |
| 2048 | course in conjunction with the others, accomplishing that visible |
| 2049 | order which reason, the most divine of all things (or of the Uni- |
| 2050 | verse,) has established. |
| 2051 | The no less celebrated passage from the Philebus, “Ore wits |
| 2052 | €or yevovotys tov mavtwy aitiov, by which it is supposed that the |
| 2053 | consubstantiality of the Logos with the first cause is asserted, |
| 2054 | relates to the human. mind, and is the conclusion of an argument |
| 2055 | which proves, that as ordinary fire is derived from the elemental, |
| 2056 | and the human body from the elemental body of the world, so is |
| 2057 | the human mind akin:to, or of the same nature with the Divine |
| 2058 | mind, or Soul of the universe, the cause of all things. |
| 2059 | These |
| 2060 | and other less celebrated passages of Plato, when examined in |
| 2061 | conjunction with this context, afford us, as Dr. Morgan justly |
| 2062 | observes, no more foundation for supposing that Plato held |
| 2063 | the doctrine of the Trinity than the following very curious: pas- |
| 2064 | sage, which he produces from Seneca, gives. us ground to |
| 2065 | suppose that it.was held by the Stoics: “Id actum est, mibi |
| 2066 | crede ab illo, quisquis formator universi fuit, sive ille Deus est |
| 2067 | h |

| 2068 | l |
| 2069 | given ;* though in the latter the doctrines appear |
| 2070 | rather to refer to the Monad and Duad than to |
| 2071 | the genuine trinity of the ancients. |
| 2072 | So far from |
| 2073 | any such doctrine being maintained by the Py-. |
| 2074 | thagoreans or in the Academy, we find only |
| 2075 | such vague allusions as might be expected among |
| 2076 | philosophers, who reverenced an ancient tradition, |
| 2077 | and were willing, after they had lost the substance, |
| 2078 | to find something to which they might attach the |
| 2079 | shadow. |
| 2080 | The error which Dr. Morgan has refuted, took |
| 2081 | . |
| 2082 | its rise with the fathers of the Church in the se- |
| 2083 | cond century. |
| 2084 | They were led into the mistake |
| 2085 | by the word Logos, used by Plato and St. John, |
| 2086 | and made the Platonic Trinity to consist of God, |
| 2087 | the Logos, and the Soul of the world, and this |
| 2088 | in spite of all the professed followers of Plato, |
| 2089 | who, however they might vary among them- |
| 2090 | selves, uniformly insisted upon placing the Mo- |
| 2091 | potens omnium, sive incorporalis ratio ingentium operum artifex, |
| 2092 | sive divinus spiritus per omnia maxima minima, equali intentione |
| 2093 | diffusus, sive fatum et immutabilis causarum imter se cohzeren- |
| 2094 | tium series.”+ |
| 2095 | To the observations from Dr. Morgan’s work, I |
| 2096 | may venture to add that the word Logos, as used by St. John |
| 2097 | and Plato, has two very distinct significations. |
| 2098 | By the latter, |
| 2099 | Reason in general is implied, whereas St. John uses it as a trans- |
| 2100 | lation of the Hebrew pzr, the Word signifying also a thing or |
| 2101 | person revealed, and if at all in the sense of reason, which may |
| 2102 | be implied from the commentaries of the fathers, not for reason |
| 2103 | in general, but for the particular faculty so called, |

| 2107 | mad and Duad, or at least |
| 2108 | a Monad, above their |
| 2109 | Triad. |
| 2110 | In the first century of the Christian era, Philo, |
| 2111 | an Alexandrian Jew, had attempted to expound |
| 2112 | the Scripture on Platonic principles ; and after the |
| 2113 | promulgation of the Gospel many of the fathers |
| 2114 | warmly adopted the same mode of exposition. |
| 2115 | The different sects of the Gnostics went far be- |
| 2116 | yond the Grecian sage, and sought in the East |
| 2117 | the doctrines, to which they looked upon the |
| 2118 | writings of Plato merely as essays, introductory to |
| 2119 | the sublimer flights of the Oriental mysticism : |
| 2120 | and they treated his followers with that contempt, |
| 2121 | against which the vanity of a philosopher is |
| 2122 | - seldom proof; and as long as these schools exist- |
| 2123 | ed, a bitter enmity prevailed between them. The |
| 2124 | Gnostics gave at once a real existence to the Ideal |
| 2125 | world, and continuing the chain of being from |
| 2126 | the Supreme, through numerous orders of Eons, |
| 2127 | personified abstract ideas, of which the second |
| 2128 | and third persons of the Trinity were the first |
| 2129 | and second Eons, and from thence to the lowest |
| 2130 | material species, |
| 2131 | founded |
| 2132 | that |
| 2133 | daring heresy |
| 2134 | which so long disturbed the tranquillity of Chris- |
| 2135 | tendom: and with this spurious Platonism of |
| 2136 | the fathers the Arian* |
| 2137 | heresy is likewise intimately |
| 2138 | connected. |
| 2139 | * It is curious to observe the Arian and Orthodox illustra- |
| 2140 | tions of Eusebius and Epiphanius. |
| 2141 | The former illustrates the |
| 2142 | Trinity by the Heaven, the Sun, and the Spirit; or the Heaven, the |

| 2144 | But the internal heresies of the Church were |
| 2145 | not the only ill effects which the misguided zeal |
| 2146 | of the fathers, in forcing upon Plato the doctrine |
| 2147 | of the Trinity, brought about. |
| 2148 | Though it is pos- |
| 2149 | | |
| 2150 | ‘sible, that by pointing out some crude similarity |
| 2151 | of doctrine, they might have obtained some con- |
| 2152 | verts by rendering Christianity less unpalatable |
| 2153 | to the philosophical world. |
| 2154 | of that day, yet the |
| 2155 | weapon was skilfully turned against them, and |
| 2156 | with unerring effect, when the Pagans took upon |
| 2157 | them to assert that nothing new had been revealed |
| 2158 | in Christianity ; since, by the confessions of its |
| 2159 | very advocates, the system was previously con- |
| 2160 | tained in the writings of Plato. |
| 2161 | In the third century, Ammonius Saccas, uni- |
| 2162 | versally acknowledged to have been a man of |
| 2163 | consummate ability, taught |
| 2164 | that every |
| 2165 | sect, |
| 2166 | Christian, Heretic. or Pagan, had received the |
| 2167 | truth, and retained it in their varied legends. |
| 2168 | He |
| 2169 | undertook, therefore, to unfold it from them all, |
| 2170 | and to reconcile every creed. |
| 2171 | And from his ex- |
| 2172 | ertions sprung the celebrated Eclectic school of |
| 2173 | the later Platonists. |
| 2174 | Plotinus, Amelius, Olym- |
| 2175 | pius, Porphyrius, Jamblichus, |
| 2176 | Syrianus, and |
| 2177 | Proclus, were among the celebrated professors |
| 2178 | Sun, and the Moon, the two latter as the leaders of innumerable |
| 2179 | host of spirits and stars, evidently derived from the prevailing |
| 2180 | notions of the Fathers relative to the Platonic trinity ; whilst |
| 2181 | Epiphanius declares, that this great mystery is properly under- |
| 2182 | stood as Fire, Light, and Spirit or Air reveal it to us. |

| 2184 | who succeeded Ammonius in the Platonic chair, |
| 2185 | and revived and kept alive the spirit of Paganism, |
| 2186 | with a bitter enmity to the Gospel, for near three |
| 2187 | hundred years. |
| 2188 | The Platonic schools were at |
| 2189 | length closed by the edict of Justinian; and seven |
| 2190 | wise men, the last lights of Platonism, Diogenes, |
| 2191 | Hermias, Eulalius, Priscianus, Damascius, Isido- |
| 2192 | rus and Simplicius retired indignantly from the |
| 2193 | persecutions of Justinian, to realize the shadowy |
| 2194 | dreams of the republic of Plato, under the Persian |
| 2195 | despotism of Chosroes.* |
| 2196 | | |
| 2197 | From the writings of these philosgphers is |
| 2198 | collected the bulk of the Oracles of Zoroaster. |
| 2199 | A few of them were first published by Ludovicus |
| 2200 | Tiletanus at Paris, with the commentaries of |
| 2201 | Pletho, to which were subsequently added those |
| 2202 | of Psellus. |
| 2203 | Chief part of them, however, were |
| 2204 | collected by Franciscus |
| 2205 | Patricius, |
| 2206 | and pub- |
| 2207 | lished with the Hermetic books at the end of |
| 2208 | his Nova Philosophia. |

| 2210 | Taylor we are indebted for the addition of about |
| 2211 | - |
| 2212 | fifty more, and for the references to the works |
| 2213 | from whence all were extracted. I have arranged |
| 2214 | them according to the subjects, which are said to |
| 2215 | be occultly discussed in the Parmenides of Plato, |
| 2216 | viz. : Cause or God, the Ideal Intelligible or |

| 2228 | precepts and directions. |
| 2229 | ‘There can be no ques- |
| 2230 | tion but that many of these Oracles are spurious ; |
| 2231 | all those, for instance, which relate to the Intelli- |
| 2232 | gible and Intellectual orders, which were con- |
| 2233 | fessedly obtained in answers given by demons, |
| 2234 | raised for that purpose by the Theurgists ;* who, |
| 2235 | as well as all the later Platonists, made preten- |
| 2236 | sions to magic, not only in its refinements, which |
| 2237 | they were pleased to designate Theurgy, but also |
| 2238 | in that debased form which we should call com- |
| 2239 | mon |
| 2240 | witchcraft. |
| 2241 | Nevertheless, several |
| 2242 | of the - |
| 2243 | Oracles. |
| 2244 | seem to be derived from |
| 2245 | more |
| 2246 | au- |
| 2247 | thentic sources, and, like the spurious Hermetic |
| 2248 | books which have come down to us, probably |
| 2249 | contain much of the pure Sabiasm of Persia, |
| 2250 | and the doctrines of the Oriental philosophy. |
| 2251 | I have thus endeavoured to give I fear a very |
| 2252 | imperfect outline of ancient history and theology. |
| 2253 | But, as |
| 2254 | it is intended rather to assist the reader |
| 2255 | through such an heterogeneous heap of materials, |
| 2256 | by bringing forward the most prominent parts |
| 2257 | and connecting them with one another, I trust — |

| 2275 | It is needless to take notice of the numerous |
| 2276 | forgeries, which have been issued as the produc- |
| 2277 | tions of the authors of these fragments. |
| 2278 | There |
| 2279 | is a complete set, which was composed in Latin |
| 2280 | by Annius, a monk of Viterbo. |
| 2281 | But it is a sin- |
| 2282 | gular circumstance, |
| 2283 | and one which might be |
| 2284 | urged with great force against the genuineness of |
| 2285 | almost the whole collection, that not only the |
| 2286 | original works have perished, but those also, |
| 2287 | through whose means |
| 2288 | these relics have been |
| 2289 | handed down. |
| 2290 | With the exception of these frag- |
| 2291 | ments, not only have Sanchoniatho, Berossus, |
| 2292 | and the rest passed into oblivion; but the pre- |
| 2293 | servers of their names have followed in the same |
| 2294 | track, and to a more unusual fate. |

| 2296 | ments of Philo, Abydenus, |

| 2300 | ' works, but extracts from their predecessors. |
| 2301 | It is necessary also to advert to the nume- |
| 2302 | rous errors which will be found in every sheet. |
| 2303 | The fragments have been exposed to more than |
| 2304 | the common risks and accidents, to which all |
| 2305 | ancient writings have been subject. |
| 2306 | They have |
| 2307 | been either copied from the rude annals of anti- |
| p. 70 | |
| 2308 | lyi |
| 2309 | quity, or sketched from historical paintings or |
| 2310 | hieroglyphic records, they have been sometimes |
| 2311 | translated from the sacred into the common lan- |
| 2312 | guage of the place; and again translated into. |
| 2313 | Greek |
| 2314 | ; then, passed in citation from hand to |
| 2315 | hand, and lie widely scattered over the works |
| 2316 | principally of the fathers, and the writers of the |
| 2317 | Lower empire. |
| 2318 | It is matter of surprise then, not |
| 2319 | that they abound in error and uncertainty, but |
| 2320 | . that |
| 2321 | so much of them has been preserved. |
| 2322 | Several of these fragments are to be found in . |
| 2323 | two or three different authors, each of whom |
| 2324 | contains a different version of the same, differing, |
| 2325 | not so much in the outline, and in the general |
| 2326 | flow of words, as in those technicalities and va- |
| 2327 | Yiations of termination, which were necessary to |
| 2328 | adapt them to the author’s style; and it has been |
| 2329 | a source of some little perplexity to determine |
| 2330 | which. |
| 2331 | of these: various readings to -prefer. |
| 2332 | To Eusebius, Syncellus and Josephus, we |
| 2333 | are largely indebted for these relics of antiquity. |
| 2334 | For Josephus I have followed Hudson’s edition. |
| 2335 | The Cologne edition |
| 2336 | of the Preparatio Evange-' |
| 2337 | lica of Eusebius is often considered the best: but |
| 2338 | upon close inspection and comparison I have been |
| 2339 | induced to prefer the text -of Stephanus. |
| 2340 | With |
| 2341 | the exception of a mutilated translation into |
| 2342 | Latin by Hieronymus, Eusebius’ Chronicle was |
| 2343 | lost.. |
| 2344 | ‘Under that title, however, Scaliger .com- |

| 2348 | piled a very portly folio, which, with some other |
| 2349 | Chronicles, contains a collection of all the frag- |
| 2350 | ments of the Greek text of Eusebius, that could |
| 2351 | be found. |
| 2352 | ‘The recovery of the Armenian trans- |
| 2353 | lation of this Chronicle is a great acquisition. |
| 2354 | It |
| 2355 | is regarded upon the Continent as perfectly au- |
| 2356 | thentic; but I am not aware that it has been ex- |
| 2357 | amined or reviewed in England. To compress as |
| 2358 | muchas possible ali unnecessary observations upon |
| 2359 | the subject of materials, editions and abbrevia- |
| 2360 | tions, I have given at the end a list of the authors |
| 2361 | - |
| 2362 | cited, which will answer at once the several pur- |
| 2363 | poses of an index to the abbreviations, and to the |
| 2364 | editions I have used or referred to, as well as to |
| 2365 | the manuscripts and other sources from which |
| 2366 | some of those editions have been formed, or which |
| 2367 | have been consulted in the compilation of the |
| 2368 | work. |
| 2369 | I have likewise given it the. form of a |
| 2370 | Chronological index, by adding the times in |
| 2371 | which the authors referred to flourished, that the |
| 2372 | reader may judge what degree of credit may be |
| 2373 | reposed in each. |
| 2374 | The matter contained in these fragments is |
| 2375 | the only merit to which they can pretend. |
| 2376 | I have |
| 2377 | chosen what appeared to me the most genuine |
| 2378 | text, independent of all theory and system, and |
| 2379 | have given all the various readings of any conse- |
| 2380 | quence I have met with. |
| 2381 | I have retained Mr. |
| 2382 | Falconer’s translation of Hanno’s Periplus; and |
| 2383 | with this exception, and some few of the most |
| 2384 | : |
| 2385 | i |
| p. 72 | |
| 2386 | lviii |
| 2387 | obscure of the oracles of Zoroaster, which are |
| 2388 | due to Mr. Taylor, I must be answerable for the |
| 2389 | rest.. For the many errors in which they must |
| 2390 | abound, I beg leave to apologize and claim in-. |
| 2391 | dulgence. |
| 2392 | The broken and confused state of |
| 2393 | many of the fragments, preclude the possibility of |
| 2394 | giving any translation, except upon. conjecture. |
| 2395 | Many, such as the Orphic fragment from Malala,*. |
| 2396 | and that from Amelius,} have exercised the talent |
| 2397 | and ingenuity of some of the ablest commentators, |
| 2398 | none of whom perhaps will be found toagree. |
| 2399 | In |
| 2400 | such cases, I have patiently compared their opi- |
| 2401 | nions, and endeavoured to investigate the circum- |
| 2402 | stances under which the fragments were written |
| 2403 | and have been preserved, and what connexion |
| 2404 | they have with the passages among which they |
| 2405 | are introduced, and to give, what to the best of |
| 2406 | my judgment is, the truth. |
| 2407 | | |
| 2408 | At the conclusion of this work I have added a |
| 2409 | disquisition, which was originally designed merely |
| 2410 | to explain.and illustrate what I conceive to have |
| 2411 | | |
| 2412 | been the ancient Trinity of the Gentiles : but in |
| 2413 | the progress of inquiry I found it impossible to |
| 2414 | do justice to the opinion without speaking largely |
| 2415 | upon ancient and modern science. |
| 2416 | ‘To compress |
| 2417 | it, therefore, as much as_ possible, and to give it |
| 2418 | something of a connected arrangement, 1 have |
| 2419 | thrown it altogether into the form of an inquiry. |

| 2423 | into the Method, |

| 2426 | And, as in this |
| 2427 | work I have endeavoured to bring forward several |
| 2428 | historical and theological documents, which had, |
| 2429 | in a manner, retired from public view, I trust |
| 2430 | that such an inquiry will not be deemed alto- |
| 2431 | gether misplaced, and that I shall be excused in |
| 2432 | an attempt to draw from the same store-house of |
| 2433 | antiquity some speculations, which have been too |
| 2434 | generally slighted or overlooked by the Meta- |
| 2435 | physician and the Philosopher, but which I be- |
| 2436 | lieve may tend to the advancement of science, |
| 2437 | even amid the brilliant discoveries |
| 2438 | of modern |
| 2439 | times. |
| 2440 | With respect to the fragments themselves, the |
| 2441 | classical reader will find, I fear, but poor amuse- |
| 2442 | ment in perusing a half barbarous dialect, replete |
| 2443 | with errors and inconsistencies: to the student of |
| 2444 | divinity, however, they may not be altogether |
| 2445 | unacceptable or devoid of interest: and to the |
| 2446 | inquirer after ancient history and mythology, it |
| 2447 | must be useful to have collected into one small |
| 2448 | volume, the scattered relics for which he must |
| 2449 | otherwise search so widely. |

| 2489 | He supposes that the beginning of all |
| 2490 | things was a dark and condensed windy |
| 2491 | air, or a breeze of thick air and a Chaos |
| 2492 | turbid and black as‘Erebus: and that |
| 2493 | these were unbounded, and for a long |
| 2494 | But |
| 2495 | when this wind became enamoured of |
| 2496 | series of ages destitute of form. |
| 2497 | its own first principles (the Chaos), |
| 2498 | and an intimate union took place, that |
| 2499 | connexion was called Pothos :* and it |
| 2500 | was the beginning of the creation of |
| 2501 | all things. And it (the Chaos) + knew |
| 2502 | not its own production; but from its |
| 2503 | embrace with the wind was generated |
| 2504 | Mét; which some call [lus (Mud), but |
| 2505 | others the putrefaction of a watery |
| 2506 | mixture. |
| 2507 | And from this sprung all |
| 2508 | the seed of the creation, and the gene- |
| 2509 | ration of the universe. |
| 2510 | * This union, among the Heathens, and particularly among the Pheenicians, |
| 2511 | was symbolized by an Egg enfolded by a Serpent, which disjunctively represented |
| 2512 | the Chaos and the Ether, but, when wnited, the hermaphroditic first principle of |
| 2513 | the Universe Cupid or Pothos. |

| 2617 | And there were |
| 2618 | certain |
| 2619 | animals |
| 2620 | without sensation, from! which intelli- |
| 2621 | gent animals were produced, and these |
| 2622 | were called Zophasemin, that is, the |
| 2623 | overseers of the heavens; and they |
| 2624 | were formed in the shape of an egg: |
| 2625 | and from M6ét shone forth the sun, |

| 2630 | - And when the air began to send |
| 2631 | forth light, by its fiery influence on |
| 2632 | the sea and earth, winds were pro-- |
| 2633 | duced, and clouds, and very great de- |
| 2634 | fluxions and torrents of the heavenly |
| 2635 | waters. And when they were thus sepa- |
| 2636 | rated, and carried out of their proper |
| 2637 | places by the heat of the sun, and all |
| 2638 | met again in the air, and were dashed |
| 2639 | against each other, thunder and light- |
| 2640 | nings were the result: and at the |
| 2641 | sound of the thunder, |
| 2642 | the before- |
| 2643 | mentioned |
| 2644 | intelligent animals were |
| 2645 | aroused, and startled by the noise, |
| 2646 | and moved upon the earth and in the |

| 2781 | God, the only lord of heaven, calling |
| 2782 | him Beelsamin, which in the Phoeni- |
| 2783 | cian dialect signifies Lord of Heaven, |
| 2784 | but among the Greeks is equivalent |
| 2785 | to Zeus. |
| 2786 | Afterwards by Genus the son of |
| 2787 | Aion and Protogonus were begotten |
| 2788 | mortal children, whose |
| 2789 | names were |
| 2790 | Phés, Pur, and Phlox. |
| 2791 | These found |
| 2792 | out the method of producing fire by |
| 2793 | rubbing pieces of wood against each |
| 2794 | other, and taught men the use thereof. |
| 2795 | These begat sons of vast bulk and |
| 2796 | height, whose names were conferred |
| 2797 | upon the mountains which they, occu- |
| 2798 | pied: thus from them Cassius, and |
| 2799 | Libanus, and Antilibanus, and Brathu |
| 2800 | received their names. |
| 2801 | Memrumus and Hypsuranius were |
| 2802 | the issue of these men by connexion |
| 2803 | with their mothers; |
| 2804 | the women of |
| 2805 | those times, without shame, having in- |
| 2806 | tercourse with any men whom they |
| 2807 | might chance to meet. |
| 2808 | Hypsuranius |
| 2809 | inhabited Tyre: and he invented huts |
| 2810 | constructed of reeds and rushes, and |
| 2811 | the papyrus.. |
| 2812 | And he fell into enmity |
| 2813 | with his brother Usous, who was the |
| 2814 | inventor of clothing for the body which |
| 2815 | | |
| 2816 | he made of the skins of the wild beasts |
| 2817 | which he could catch. |

| 2867 | there were violent storms of rain and |
| 2868 | wind, the trees about ‘'yre being rub- |
| 2869 | bed against each other, took fire, and |
| 2870 | all the forest in the neighbourhood |
| 2871 | was consumed. |
| 2872 | And Usous having |
| 2873 | taken a tree, and broken off its boughs, |
| 2874 | was the first who dared to venture on |
| 2875 | the sea. |
| 2876 | And he consecrated two pil- |
| 2877 | lars to Fire and Wind, and worship- |
| 2878 | ped them, and poured out upon them |
| 2879 | the blood of the wild beasts he took |
| 2880 | in hunting: and when these men were |
| 2881 | dead, those that remained consecrated |
| 2882 | to them rods, and worshipped the pil- |
| 2883 | lars, and held anniversary feasts in |
| 2884 | honour of them. |
| 2885 | And in times long subsequent to |
| 2886 | these ; were born of the race of Hypsu- |
| 2887 | ranius, Agreus and Halieus, the inven- |
| 2888 | tors of the arts of hunting and fishing, |
| 2889 | from whom huntsmen and fishermen |
| 2890 | derive their names. |
| 2891 | Of these were begotten two brothers |
| 2892 | who discovered iron, and the forging |
| 2893 | thereof. One of these called Chrysor, |
| 2894 | who is the same with Hephestus, |
| 2895 | exercised himself in words, and charms |
| 2896 | and divinations; and he invented the |
| 2897 | hook, and the bait, and the fishing- |
| 2898 | line, and boats of a light construction ; |
| 2899 | and he was |
| 2900 | the first of all men that |

| 2949 | after his death as a God, under the |
| 2950 | name of Diamichius. |
| 2951 | And it is said |
| 2952 | that his brothers invented the art of |
| 2953 | building walls with bricks. |
| 2954 | Afterwards, of this race were born |
| 2955 | two youths, one of whom was called |
| 2956 | Technites, and the other was. called |
| 2957 | Geinus Autochthon. . These discovered |
| 2958 | the method of mingling. stubble with |
| 2959 | the loam of bricks, and of baking them |
| 2960 | in the sun; they were also the inven- |
| 2961 | tors of tiling. |
| 2962 | By these were begotten others, of |
| 2963 | whom one was named Agrus, the other |
| 2964 | Agrouerus or Agrotes, of whom in |
| 2965 | Phoenicia there was a statue held in |
| 2966 | the highest veneration, and a temple |
| 2967 | drawn by yokes. of oxen: and at By- |
| 2968 | blus he is called, by way of eminence, |
| 2969 | the greatest of the Gods. |
| 2970 | These ad- |
| 2971 | ded to the houses, courts and porticos |
| 2972 | and crypts: husbandmen, and such |
| 2973 | as hunt with dogs, derive their origin |
| 2974 | _ from these: they are called also Aletz, |
| 2975 | _ and Titans. |
| 2976 | From these were descended Amy- |
| 2977 | nus and Magus, who taught men to |
| 2978 | construct villages and tend flocks. |
| 2979 | By these men were begotten Misor |

| 3030 | From Misor descended Taautus, who |
| 3031 | invented the writing of the first let- |
| 3032 | ters: him the Egyptians called Thoor, |
| 3033 | the Alexandrians Thoyth, |
| 3034 | and the |
| 3035 | Greeks Hermes. |
| 3036 | But from Sydyc |
| 3037 | descended the Dioscuri, or Cabiri, or |
| 3038 | Corybantes, -or Samothraces: |
| 3039 | these |
| 3040 | (he says) first built a ship complete. |
| 3041 | From these descended others, who |
| 3042 | were |
| 3043 | the discoverers |
| 3044 | of medicinal |
| 3045 | herbs, and of the cure of poisons and |
| 3046 | of charms. |
| 3047 | Contemporary with these was one |
| 3048 | Elioun, called Hypsistus, (the most |
| 3049 | high); and his wife named Beruth, |
| 3050 | and they dwelt about Byblus. |
| 3051 | By these was begotten Epigeus or |
| 3052 | Autochthon, whom they afterwards |
| 3053 | called Ouranus (Heaven); so |
| 3054 | that |
| 3055 | ‘from him that element, which is over |
| 3056 | us, by reason of its excellent beauty |
| 3057 | is named heaven: and he had a sister |
| 3058 | of the same parents, and she was |
| 3059 | called Ge (Earth), and by reason of |
| 3060 | | |
| 3061 | her beauty the earth was called by the |
| 3062 | same name. |
| 3063 | Hypsistus, |
| 3064 | the |
| 3065 | father of these, |
| 3066 | having been killed in a conflict with |
| 3067 | wild beasts, was consecrated, and his |
| 3068 | children offered libations and sacri- |

| 3136 | But Ouranus,: succeeding |
| 3137 | to the |
| 3138 | kingdom of his father, contracted a |
| 3139 | marriage with his sister Ge, and had |
| 3140 | by her four sons, [lus who is called |
| 3141 | Cronus, and Betylus, and Dagon, which |
| 3142 | signifies |
| 3143 | (Bread-corn,) |
| 3144 | and |
| 3145 | Atlas. - |
| 3146 | But by other wives Ouranus had |
| 3147 | much issue ; at which Ge, being vexed |
| 3148 | and jealous of Ouranus, reproached |
| 3149 | him so that they parted from each |
| 3150 | other: nevertheless Ouranus returned |
| 3151 | to her, again by force whenever he |
| 3152 | Siton |
| 3153 | thought proper, and having laid with |
| 3154 | her, again departed: |
| 3155 | he attempted |
| 3156 | also to kill the children whom he had |
| 3157 | by her; but Ge often defended her- |
| 3158 | self with the assistance of auxiliary |
| 3159 | powers. |
| 3160 | But when Cronus arrived at man’s |
| 3161 | estate, acting by the advice and with |
| 3162 | _the assistance of Hermes Trismegis- |
| 3163 | tus, who was his secretary, he opposed |
| 3164 | himself to his father Ouranus, that he |
| 3165 | might avenge the indignities which |
| 3166 | had been offered to his mother. |
| 3167 | And to Cronus were born children, |
| 3168 | Persephone and Athena; the former |
| 3169 | of whom died a virgin; but, by the |
| 3170 | advice of Athena and Hermes, Cronus |
| 3171 | made a scimitar and a spear of iron. |

| 3238 | pregnant; and Cronus bestowed her |
| 3239 | in marriage upon Dagon, and, whilst |
| 3240 | she was with him, she was delivered |
| 3241 | of the child which she had conceived |
| 3242 | by Ouranus, and called his name De- |
| 3243 | marous. |
| 3244 | After |
| 3245 | these |
| 3246 | events Cronus |
| 3247 | sur- |
| 3248 | rounded his habitation with a wall, |
| 3249 | and founded Byblus, the first city of |
| 3250 | Phoenicia. Afterwards Cronus having |
| 3251 | conceived a suspicion of his own bro- |
| 3252 | ther Atlas, by the advice of Hermes, |
| 3253 | threw him into a deep cavern in the |
| 3254 | earth, and buried him. |
| 3255 | At this time the descendants of the |
| 3256 | Dioscuri, having built some light and |
| 3257 | other more complete ships, put to sea; |
| 3258 | and being cast away over |
| 3259 | against |
| 3260 | Mount Cassius, there consecrated a |
| 3261 | temple. |
| 3262 | But the auxiliaries of Ilus, who is |
| 3263 | Cronus, were called Eloeim, as it were, |
| 3264 | the allies of Cronus; being so called |
| 3265 | after Cronus. |

| 3324 | SANCHONIATHO, |
| 3325 | son called Sadidus, dispatched him |
| 3326 | with his own sword, because he held |
| 3327 | him in suspicion, and with his own |
| 3328 | hand deprived his child of life. And |
| 3329 | in like manner he cut off the head of |
| 3330 | his own daughter, so that all the gods |
| 3331 | were astonished at the disposition of |
| 3332 | Cronus. |
| 3333 | But in process |
| 3334 | of time, whilst |
| 3335 | Ouranus was still in banishment, he |
| 3336 | sent his daughter Astarte, being a |
| 3337 | | |
| 3338 | virgin, with two other of her sisters, |
| 3339 | Rhea and Dione, to cut off Cronus by |
| 3340 | treachery ; but Cronus took the dam- |
| 3341 | sels, and married them notwithstand- |
| 3342 | ing they were his own sisters. |
| 3343 | When |
| 3344 | Ouranus understood |
| 3345 | this, he sent |
| 3346 | Eimarmene |
| 3347 | and |
| 3348 | Hora. |
| 3349 | with |
| 3350 | other |
| 3351 | auxiliaries to make war against Cro- |
| 3352 | nus : but Cronus gained the affections |
| 3353 | of these also, and detained them with |
| 3354 | himself. |
| 3355 | Moreover, the god Ouranus |
| 3356 | devised Beetulia, contriving stones that |
| 3357 | moved as having life. |
| 3358 | And by Astarte Cronus had seven |
| 3359 | daughters called Titanides, or Arte- |
| 3360 | mides; by Rhea also he had seven |
| 3361 | sons, the youngest of whom was con- |
| 3362 | secrated from his birth ; also by Dione |
| 3363 | he had daughters; and by Astarte |
| 3364 | again he had two other sons, Pothos |
| 3365 | and Eros. |

| 3425 | bread-corn, and the plough, was called ~ |
| 3426 | Zeus Arotrius. |
| 3427 | To Sydyc, who was called the just, |
| 3428 | one of the Titanides bare Asclepius : |
| 3429 | and to Cronus there were born also in |
| 3430 | Perza three sons, Cronus bearing the |
| 3431 | same name with his father, and Zeus |
| 3432 | Belus, and Apollo. |
| 3433 | Contemporary with these were Pon- |
| 3434 | tus, and Typhon, and Nereus |
| 3435 | the |
| 3436 | father of Pontus: from Pontus de- |
| 3437 | scended Sidon, who by the excellence |
| 3438 | of her singing first invented the hymns |
| 3439 | of odes or praises: and Poseidon. |
| 3440 | But to Demarous was born Meli- |
| 3441 | carthus, who is also called Heracles. |
| 3442 | Ouranus then made war |
| 3443 | against |
| 3444 | Pontus, but afterwards relinquishing |
| 3445 | the attack he attached himself to De- |
| 3446 | marous, |
| 3447 | when. |
| 3448 | Demarous |
| 3449 | invaded |
| 3450 | Pontus : but Pontus put him to flight, |
| 3451 | and Demarous vowed a sacrifice for |
| 3452 | his escape. |
| 3453 | In the thirty-second year of his |
| 3454 | power and reign, Ilus, who is Cronus, |
| 3455 | having laid an ambuscade for his |
| 3456 | father Ouranus in a certain place si- |

| 3507 | There Ouranus was |

| 3509 | rated, and the blood of his parts |
| 3510 | flowed into |
| 3511 | the fountains and _ the |

| 3516 | (Then our |

| 3521 | _ |
| 3522 | Astarte called the greatest, and De- |
| 3523 | ‘marous named Zeus, and Adodus who |
| 3524 | is entitled the king of gods, reigned |
| 3525 | over the country by the consent of |
| 3526 | Cronus: and Astarte put upon her |
| 3527 | head, as the mark of her sovereignty, |
| 3528 | a bull's head : and travelling about the |
| 3529 | habitable world, she found a star fall- |
| 3530 | ing through the air, which she took |
| 3531 | up, and consecrated in the holy island |
| 3532 | of Tyre: and the Phoenicians say that |
| 3533 | Astarte is the same as Aphrodite. |
| 3534 | Moreover, Cronus visiting the dif- |
| 3535 | ferent regions of habitable world, gave |
| 3536 | to his daughter Athena the kingdom |
| 3537 | of Attica: and when there happened |
| 3538 | a plague with a great mortality, Cro- |
| 3539 | nus offered up his only begotten son |
| 3540 | as a sacrifice to his father Ouranus, |
| 3541 | and circumcised himself, and compel- |
| 3542 | led his allies to do the same: and not |
| 3543 | long afterwards he consecrated after |
| 3544 | his death another of his sons, called |

| 3599 | Muth, whom he had by Rhea; this |
| 3600 | (Muth) the Phoenicians esteem the |
| 3601 | same as Death and Pluto. |
| 3602 | After these things, Cronus gave the |
| 3603 | city of Byblus to the goddess Baaltis, |
| 3604 | which |
| 3605 | is Dione, and Berytus to Posei- |
| 3606 | bandmen and fishermen: and they |
| 3607 | consecrated the remains of Pontus at |
| 3608 | Berytus. |
| 3609 | But before these things the god |
| 3610 | Taautus, having pourtrayed Ouranus, |
| 3611 | represented also the countenances of |
| 3612 | the gods Cronus, and Dagon, and the |
| 3613 | sacred characters of the elements. He |
| 3614 | contrived also for Cronus the ensign |
| 3615 | of his royal power, having four eyes |
| 3616 | in the parts before and in the parts |
| 3617 | behind, two of them closing as in |
| 3618 | sleep; and upon the shoulders four |
| 3619 | wings, two in the act of flying, and |
| 3620 | two reposing as at rest. |
| 3621 | And the |
| 3622 | symbol was, that Cronus whilst he slept |
| 3623 | was watching, and reposed whilst he |
| 3624 | was awake. |
| 3625 | And in like manner with |
| 3626 | respect to the wings, that he was fly- |
| 3627 | ing whilst he rested, yet rested whilst |
| 3628 | he flew. But for the other gods there |
| 3629 | were two wings only to each upon his |
| 3630 | shoulders, to intimate that they flew |
| 3631 | under the controul of Cronus; and |

| 3756 | And Cronus visiting the country of |
| 3757 | the south, gave all Egypt to the god |
| 3758 | Taautus, that it might /be his king- |

| 3760 | These things, says he, the Caberi, |
| 3761 | the seven sons of Sydyc, and their |
| 3762 | eighth brother Asclepius, first of all |
| 3763 | set down in the records in obedience |
| 3764 | to the commands of the god Taautus. |
| 3765 | All these things the son of Thabion, |

| 3767 | Phoenicians, allegorized and mixed up |

| 3770 | to the priests and prophets, |

| 3971 | Brrossus, in the first book of his |
| 3972 | history of Babylonia, informs us that |
| 3973 | he lived in the age of Alexander the |
| 3974 | son of Philip. |
| 3975 | And he mentions that |
| 3976 | there were written accounts, preserved |
| 3977 | at Babylon with the greatest care, |
| 3978 | comprehending a period of above fif- |
| 3979 | teen myriads of years : and. that these |
| 3980 | writings contained |
| 3981 | histories |
| 3982 | of the |
| 3983 | heaven and of the sea; of the birth |
| 3984 | of mankind; and |
| 3985 | of the kings, and of |
| 3986 | the memorable actions which they had |
| 3987 | achieved. |
| 3988 | -And in the first place he describes |
| 3989 | Babylonia as a country situated be- |
| 3990 | tween the Tigris and the Euphrates : |
| 3991 | that it abounded with wheat, and bar- |
| 3992 | ley, and ocrus, and sesame ; and that |
| 3993 | in the lakes were produced the roots |
| 3994 | called gonge, which are fit for food, |

| 4054 | That there were also palm |
| 4055 | trees and apples, and |
| 4056 | a_ variety of |
| 4057 | fruits ; fish also and birds, both those |
| 4058 | which are merely of flight, and those |
| 4059 | which frequent the lakes. |
| 4060 | He adds, |
| 4061 | that those parts of the country which |
| 4062 | bordered upon Arabia, were without |
| 4063 | water, and barren; but that the parts |
| 4064 | which lay on the other side were both |
| 4065 | hilly and fertile.| |
| 4066 | At Babylon there was (in these |
| 4067 | times) a great resort of people of |
| 4068 | various nations, who inhabited Chal- |
| 4069 | dzea, and lived in a lawless manner |
| 4070 | like the beasts of the field. |
| 4071 | In the first year there appeared, |
| 4072 | from that part of the Erythrean sea |
| 4073 | which borders upon Babylonia, an |
| 4074 | animal destitute§ of reason, by name |
| 4075 | Oannes, whose whole bedy (according |
| 4076 | to the account of Apollodorus) was |
| 4077 | that of a fish; that under the fish’s |
| 4078 | head he had another head, with feet |
| 4079 | also below, similar to those of a man, |
| 4080 | subjoined to the fish’s tail. His voice |
| 4081 | too, and language, was articulate and |

| 4137 | This Being was accustomed to pass |
| 4138 | the day among men; but took no food |
| 4139 | at that season; and he gave them an |
| 4140 | insight into letters and sciences, and |
| 4141 | arts of every kind. |
| 4142 | He taught them |
| 4143 | to construct cities, to found temples, |
| 4144 | to compile laws, and explained to them |
| 4145 | the principles of geometrical know~ |
| 4146 | ledge. He made them distinguish the |
| 4147 | seeds of the earth, and shewed them |
| 4148 | how to collect the fruits; in short, he |
| 4149 | instructed them in every thing which |
| 4150 | could tend to soften manners and |
| 4151 | humanize their lives. From that time, |
| 4152 | nothing material has been added by |
| 4153 | way of improvement to his instruc- |
| 4154 | tions. And when the sun had set, this |
| 4155 | Being Oannes, retired again into the |
| 4156 | sea, and passed the night in the deep; |
| 4157 | for he was amphibious. |
| 4158 | After this |
| 4159 | there appeared other animals like |
| 4160 | Oannes, of which Berossus proposes |
| 4161 | to give an account when he comes to |
| 4162 | the history of the kings. |
| 4163 | Moreover |
| 4164 | Oannes wrote concerning the genera- |
| 4165 | tion of mankind; and of their civil |
| 4166 | polity ; and the following is the pur- |
| 4167 | port of what he said : |

| 4243 | hideous beings, which were produced |
| 4244 | of a two-fold principle. |
| 4245 | There ap- |
| 4246 | peared men, some of whom were fur- |
| 4247 | nished with two wings, others with |
| 4248 | four, and with two faces. |
| 4249 | They had |
| 4250 | one body but two heads: the one that |
| 4251 | of a man, the other of a woman: and |
| 4252 | likewise in their several organs both |
| 4253 | male and female. Other human figures |
| 4254 | were to be seen with the legs and |
| 4255 | horns of goats: some had horses’ feet: |
| 4256 | while others united the hind quarters |
| 4257 | of a horse with the body of a man, |
| 4258 | resembling in shape the hippocen- |
| 4259 | taurs. Bulls likewise were bred there |
| 4260 | with the heads of men; and dogs with |
| 4261 | fourfold bodies, terminated in’ their |
| 4262 | extremities with the tails of fishes: |
| 4263 | horses also with the heads of dogs: |
| 4264 | men too and other animals, with the |
| 4265 | heads and bodies of horses and the |
| 4266 | tails of fishes. |
| 4267 | In short, there were |
| 4268 | creatures in which were combined the |
| 4269 | limbs of every species of animals. |
| 4270 | In |
| 4271 | addition to these, fishes, reptiles, ser- |
| 4272 | pents, with other monstrous animals, |
| 4273 | which assumed each other’s shape and |

| 4347 | The person, who presided over |
| 4348 | them, was a woman named Omoroca; |
| 4349 | which in the Chaldzan language is |
| 4350 | Thalatth;§ in Greek Thalassa, |
| 4351 | the |
| 4352 | sea; but which might equally be in- |
| 4353 | terpreted the Moon. All things being |
| 4354 | in this situation, Belus came, and cut |
| 4355 | the woman asunder: and of one half |
| 4356 | of her he formed the earth, and of the |
| 4357 | other half the heavens; and at the |
| 4358 | same |
| 4359 | time destroyed |
| 4360 | the animals |
| 4361 | within her.** |
| 4362 | All this (he says) was |
| 4363 | an allegorical description of nature. |
| 4364 | For, the whole universe consisting of |
| 4365 | moisture, and animals being conti- |
| 4366 | nually generated therein, the deity |
| 4367 | above-mentioned |
| 4368 | took off his own |
| 4369 | head: upon which the other gods |
| 4370 | mixed the blood, as it gushed out, |
| 4371 | with the earth ; and from thence were |
| 4372 | formed men. |
| 4373 | On this account it is |
| 4374 | that they are rational, and partake of |
| 4375 | divine knowledge. |
| 4376 | This Belus, by |
| 4377 | whom they signify Jupiter,*** divided |
| 4378 | the darkness, |
| 4379 | separated |
| 4380 | the |
| 4381 | Heavens from the Earth, and reduced |
| 4382 | the universe to order. |
| 4383 | But the ani- |
| 4384 | mals, not being able to bear the pre- |
| 4385 | valence of light, died. |

| 4457 | this, seeing a vast space unoccupied, |
| 4458 | though by nature fruitful, commanded |
| 4459 | one of the gods to take off his head, |
| 4460 | and to mix the blood with the earth ; |
| 4461 | and from thence to form other men |
| 4462 | and animals, which should be capable |
| 4463 | of bearing the air.* |
| 4464 | Belus formed |
| 4465 | also the stars, and the sun, and the |
| 4466 | moon, and the five planets. |
| 4467 | (Such, |
| 4468 | according to Polyhistor Alexander, is |
| 4469 | the account which Berossus gives in |
| 4470 | his first book.) |
| 4471 | (In the second book was contained |
| 4472 | the history of the ten kings of the |
| 4473 | Chaldzans, and the periods of the |
| 4474 | continuance of each reign, which con- |
| 4475 | sisted collectively of an hundred and |
| 4476 | twenty sari, or four hundred and |
| 4477 | thirty-two thousand years; reaching |
| 4478 | to the time of the Deluge. For, Alex- |
| 4479 | ander, enumerating the kings from |
| 4480 | the writings of the Chaldzeans, after |
| 4481 | the ninth Ardates, proceeds to the |
| 4482 | tenth, whois called by them Xisuthrus, |
| 4483 | in this manner :) |
| 4484 | | |
| 4485 | After the death of Ardates, his son |
| 4486 | Xisuthrus reigned eighteen sari. |
| 4487 | » In |
| 4488 | his time happened a great Deluge ; |
| 4489 | the history of which is thus described. |

| 4542 | The Deity, Cronus, appeared to him |
| 4543 | in a vision, and warned him that upon |
| 4544 | the fifteenth day of the month Desius |
| 4545 | there would be a flood, by which man- |
| 4546 | kind would be destroyed. |
| 4547 | He there- |
| 4548 | fore enjoined him to write a history |
| 4549 | of the beginning, procedure, and con- |
| 4550 | clusion of all things; and to bury it |
| 4551 | in the city of the Sun at Sippara; and |
| 4552 | to build a vessel, and take with him |
| 4553 | into it his friends and relations; and |
| 4554 | to convey on board every thing neces- |
| 4555 | sary to sustain life, together with all |
| 4556 | the different animals, both birds and |
| 4557 | quadrupeds, and trust himself fear- |
| 4558 | lessly to the deep. © Having asked |
| 4559 | the Deity, whither he was.to sail?» he |
| 4560 | was answered,f |
| 4561 | ‘“ To the Gods :” |
| 4562 | upon which he offered up a prayer |
| 4563 | for the good of mankind. |
| 4564 | He then |
| 4565 | obeyed the divine admonition: |
| 4566 | . and |
| 4567 | built a vessel five stadia in length, and |
| 4568 | two in breadth. |
| 4569 | Into this he put |
| 4570 | every thing which he had prepared ; |
| 4571 | and last of all conveyed into it his |

| 4660 | earth, and was in time abated, Xisu- |
| 4661 | thrus sent out birds from the ves- |
| 4662 | sel; which, not finding any food, nor |
| 4663 | any place whereupon they might rest |
| 4664 | their feet, returned to him again. |
| 4665 | After an interval of some days, he |
| 4666 | sent them forth a second time; and |
| 4667 | they now returned |
| 4668 | with their feet |
| 4669 | tinged with mud. |
| 4670 | He made a trial a |
| 4671 | third time with these birds; but they |
| 4672 | returned to himno more: from whence |
| 4673 | he judged that the surface of the |
| 4674 | earth had appeared above the waters. |
| 4675 | He therefore made an opening in the |
| 4676 | vessel, and upon looking out found |
| 4677 | that it was stranded upon the side of |
| 4678 | some mountain; upon which he im- |
| 4679 | mediately quitted it with his wife, his |
| 4680 | daughter, and the pilot. |
| 4681 | Xisuthrus |
| 4682 | then paid his adoration to the earth : |
| 4683 | and having constructed. an altar, of- |
| 4684 | fered sacrifices to the gods, and, with |
| 4685 | those who had come out of the vessel |
| 4686 | with him, disappeared. |
| 4687 | They, who remained within, find- |
| 4688 | ing that their companions did not re- |

| 4906 | Annedotus, having the |

| 5529 | rest of his baggage, to Babylonia: in |
| 5530 | the mean time with a few attendants |
| 5531 | he hastily crossed the desert to Baby- |
| 5532 | lon. When he arrived there he found |
| 5533 | that his affairs had been faithfully |
| 5534 | conducted by the Chaldeans, and that |
| 5535 | the principal person among them had. |
| 5536 | preserved the kingdom for him: and |
| 5537 | he accordingly obtained possession of |
| 5538 | all his father’s dominions. |
| 5539 | And he |
| 5540 | distributed the captives in colonies in |
| 5541 | the most proper places of Babylonia: |
| 5542 | and adorned the temple of Belus, |
| 5543 | and the other temples, in a sumptuous |
| 5544 | and pious manner, out of the spoils |
| 5545 | which he had taken in this war. |
| 5546 | He |
| 5547 | also rebuilt the old city, and added |
| 5548 | another to it on the outside, and so |
| 5549 | far completed Babylon, that none, who |
| 5550 | might besiege it afterwards, should |
| 5551 | have it in their power to divert the |
| 5552 | river, so as to facilitate an entrance |
| 5553 | into it: and he effected this by build- |
| 5554 | ing three walls about the inner city, |
| 5555 | and three about the outer. |
| 5556 | Some of |
| 5557 | these walls he built of burnt brick |
| 5558 | and bitumen, and some of brick only. |
| 5559 | When he had thus admirably fortified |
| 5560 | the city, and had magnificently adorn- |
| 5561 | ed the gates, he added also a new |
| 5562 | palace to those in which his forefathers |
| 5563 | had dwelt, adjoining them, but ex- |
| 5564 | ceeding them in height and splendor. |

| 5794 | Babylonia. |
| 5795 | As soon as Nabonnedus |
| 5796 | perceived he was advancing to attack |
| 5797 | him, he assembled. his forces and op- |
| 5798 | posed him, but was defeated, and fled |
| 5799 | with a few of his adherents, and was |
| 5800 | shut up in the city of Borsippus. Upon |
| 5801 | this Cyrus took Babylon, and. gave |
| 5802 | orders that the outer walls should be |
| 5803 | demolished, because the city appeared |
| 5804 | of such strength as to render a siege |
| 5805 | almost impracticable. |
| 5806 | From thence |
| 5807 | he marched to Borsippus, to besiege |
| 5808 | Nabonnedus:. but .Nabonnedus de- |
| 5809 | livered himself into his hands without |
| 5810 | holding out the place: he was there- |

| 5812 | provided him with an establishment |

| 6142 | of Armenia a very great mountain |
| 6143 | which is called Baris; to which, it is |
| 6144 | said, that many persons retreated at |
| 6145 | the time of the deluge, and were |
| 6146 | saved ; and that one in particular was |
| 6147 | carried thither in an ark, and was |
| 6148 | landed on its summit, and that the |
| 6149 | remains of the vessel were long pre- |
| 6150 | served upon,the mountain. |

| 6371 | Adam through ten generations to the |

| 6374 | mitted to any particular discipline |
| 6375 | - |
| 6376 | of life; but as each thought proper |

| 6432 | prevailed from the days of Noah and |
| 6433 | thence downwards to the building of |
| 6434 | the tower and Babylon, and for a few |
| 6435 | years subsequently to that time, that |
| 6436 | is to the days of Phalec and Ragau. |
| 6437 | But the nations which incline upon the |
| 6438 | borders of Europe continued addicted |
| 6439 | to the Scythic heresy, and the cus- |
| 6440 | toms of the Scythians to the age of |
| 6441 | Thera, and afterwards; of this sect |
| 6442 | also were the Thracians. |
| 6443 | The third |
| 6444 | is Hellenism, |
| 6445 | which |
| 6446 | originated in the days of Seruch |
| 6447 | with the introduction of idolatry: and |
| 6448 | as men had hitherto followed each |
| 6449 | some demonolatrous superstition of |
| 6450 | _ his own, |
| 6451 | they were now |
| 6452 | reduced |
| 6453 | to a more established form of polity, |
| 6454 | and to the rites and ceremonies of |
| 6455 | idols. |
| 6456 | And the followers of this be- |

| 6458 | likenesses of those whom they had |
| 6459 | formerly honoured, either kings or |

| 6515 | The Egyptians, and Babylonians, |
| 6516 | and Phrygians, and Phoenicians were |
| 6517 | the first propagators of this supersti- |
| 6518 | tion of making images, and of the |
| 6519 | mysteries : from whom it was trans- |
| 6520 | ferred to the Greeks from the time |
| 6521 | of Cecrops downwards. |
| 6522 | But it was |
| 6523 | not till afterwards and at a consi- |
| 6524 | derable interval that Cronus |
| 6525 | and |
| 6526 | Rhea, Zeus and Apollo, and the rest |
| 6527 | were |
| 6528 | esteemed |
| 6529 | and honoured |

| 6533 | Awnp from the times of Tharra the |
| 6534 | father of Abraham, they introduced |
| 6535 | images and all the errors of idola- |

| 6537 | their departed |
| 6538 | predecessors |
| 6539 | with |
| 6540 | effigies which they fashioned after |
| 6541 | their |
| 6542 | likeness. |
| 6543 | They first made |
| 6544 | these effigies of earthern ware, but |
| 6545 | afterwards according to their dif- |
| 6546 | ferent arts they sculptured them in |
| 6547 | stone, and cast them in silver and |
| 6548 | gold, and wrought them in wood, |
| 6549 | and all kinds of different materials. |

| 6623 | Or the tribe of Japhet was born |
| 6624 | Seruch, who first introduced Hel- |
| 6625 | lenism and the worship of idols. For |
| 6626 | he and those who concurred: with |
| 6627 | him in opinion honoured their pre- |
| 6628 | decessors whether warriors or leaders, |
| 6629 | or characters renowned during their |
| 6630 | lives for valour or virtue with co- |
| 6631 | lumnar statues, as if they had been |
| 6632 | their progenitors, and tendered to |
| 6633 | them a species of religious veneration |
| 6634 | as a kind of gods and sacrificed. But |
| 6635 | after this their successors, overstep- |
| 6636 | ping the intention of their ancestors |
| 6637 | that they should honour them as their |
| 6638 | progenitors |
| 6639 | and |
| 6640 | the inventors |
| 6641 | of |
| 6642 | good things with monuments alone, |
| 6643 | honoured |
| 6644 | them as |
| 6645 | heavenly gods |
| 6646 | and sacrificed to them as such. And |
| 6647 | the following was the form of their |
| 6648 | canonization: |
| 6649 | they inscribed |
| 6650 | their |
| 6651 | names after their decease in their |
| 6652 | sacred books and established a festi- |
| 6653 | val to each at certain seasons, saying |
| 6654 | that their souls had departed to the |
| 6655 | islands of the blessed and were never |
| 6656 | condemned or burnt with fire. |

| 6702 | Tue city of Babylon owes its founda- |
| 6703 | tion to those who were saved from |
| 6704 | the catastrophe of the deluge: they |
| 6705 | were the Giants, and they built the |
| 6706 | tower which is noticed in history. |
| 6707 | But the tower being overthrown by |
| 6708 | the interposition of God, the Giants |
| 6709 | were scattered over all the earth. |
| 6710 | He says moreover that in the tenth |
| 6711 | generation in the city Camarina of |
| 6712 | Babylonia, which some call the city |
| 6713 | Urie, and which signifies a city of the |
| 6714 | Chaldzeans, the thirteenth in descent |
| 6715 | lived Abraham, of a noble race, and |
| 6716 | superior to all others in wisdom; of |
| 6717 | whom they relate that he was the in- |
| 6718 | ventor of astrology and the Chaldzean |
| 6719 | magic, and that on account of his |
| 6720 | eminent piety he was esteemed by |
| 6721 | God. |
| 6722 | It is further said, that under |
| 6723 | the directions of God he removed and |
| 6724 | lived in Phoenicia, and there taught |
| 6725 | the Phcenicians the motions of the |
| 6726 | sun and moon and all other things ; |

| 6774 | Axsram was king of Damascus, and |
| 6775 | he came thither as a stranger with an |
| 6776 | army from that part of the country |
| 6777 | which is situated above Babylon of |
| 6778 | the Chaldzans : but after a short time |
| 6779 | he again emigrated from this region |
| 6780 | with his people and transferred his |
| 6781 | habitation to the land, which was then |
| 6782 | called |
| 6783 | Cananzea, |

| 6786 | had increased with him; of whose |

| 7040 | ceeded by his son Comosbelus, |
| 7041 | who held the empire four neri |
| 7042 | But from the |
| 7043 | time of Xisuthrus and the de- |
| 7044 | luge, to |
| 7045 | that |
| 7046 | at which. the |
| 7047 | Medes took possession of Ba- |
| 7048 | bylon, there were |
| 7049 | altogether |
| 7050 | and five sossi. |
| 7051 | eighty-six kings. |
| 7052 | Polyhistor |
| 7053 | enumerates and mentions each |
| 7054 | of them by name from the vo- |
| 7055 | lume of Berossus : the duration |
| 7056 | of the reigns of all which kings |
| 7057 | comprehends a period of thirty- |
| 7058 | three thousand and ninety-one |
| 7059 | years. |
| 7060 | But when their power |
| 7061 | was |
| 7062 | thus |
| 7063 | firmly established, |
| 7064 | the Medes |
| 7065 | suddenly |
| 7066 | levied |
| 7067 | forces against Babylon to sur- |
| 7068 | prise it, and to place upon the |
| 7069 | throne |
| 7070 | kings |
| 7071 | chosen |
| 7072 | from |
| 7073 | among themselves. |
| 7074 | He then gives the names of |
| 7075 | the Median Kings, 8 in num- |
| 7076 | ber, who reigned during the |
| 7077 | period of 224 years: and again |
| 7078 | 11 Kings during .. |
| 7079 | . |
| 7080 | . years. |
| 7081 | Then 49 Kings of the Chal- |
| 7082 | deans 458 years. Then 9 Kings |
| 7083 | of the Arabians |
| 7084 | 245 |
| 7085 | years. |
| 7086 | After |
| 7087 | all |
| 7088 | these |
| 7089 | periods of years he states that |
| 7090 | successive |
| 7091 | Semiramis |

| 7165 | But in the third year |
| 7166 | of his reign Senecherib king of |

| 7221 | which, though he suffered great |
| 7222 | loss in his own army, he over- |

| 7554 | The passage then in the text may |
| 7555 | refer to the dominion (potestatem) of Axerdis, “ from which Sardanapallus |
| 7556 | revolted.” |
| 7557 | ¢ The Armenian Editor in a note complains of the obscurity of this passage |
| 7558 | in the original, and thinks it may be translated “ Condonavit regiam aulam |
| 7559 | Evoriti,” entrusted the palace to some officer named Evorites. |
| 7560 | In some authors |
| 7561 | the daughter of Astyages is named Aroites: and it might possibly refer to hers |
| 7562 | if the word were read in conjunction with the subsequent sentence. |

| 7605 | the Assyrians; and under him |
| 7606 | the Cyclops assisted Jupiter with |
| 7607 | thunder-bolts and lightnings in |
| 7608 | his contest with the Titans. |
| 7609 | At |
| 7610 | that time there were kings of the |
| 7611 | Titans, one of whom was Ogygus. |
| 7612 | (After a short digression he pro- |
| 7613 | ceeds to say, that) the Giants, in |
| 7614 | their attempted inroad upon the |
| 7615 | Gods, were slain by the assistance |
| 7616 | of Hercules and Dionysus, who |
| 7617 | were themselves of the Titan |
| 7618 | race. |
| 7619 | Belus, whom we have men- |

| 7621 | esteemed a God, |

| 7624 | fifty-two years. |
| 7625 | He married Se- |
| 7626 | miramis, who, after his decease, |
| 7627 | reigned over the Assyrians forty- |
| 7628 | two years. Then reigned Zames, |

| 7667 | We have first digested into a |
| 7668 | canon the kings of the Assyrians, |
| 7669 | commencing with Belus: |
| 7670 | but |
| 7671 | since we have no |
| 7672 | certain tra- |
| 7673 | dition respecting the: length of |
| 7674 | his reign, we have merely set |
| 7675 | down his name, and commenced |
| 7676 | the chronological series from Ni- |
| 7677 | nus; and have concluded it with |
| 7678 | another Ninus, who obtained the |
| 7679 | empire after Sardanapallus; that |
| 7680 | in this manner the whole length of |
| 7681 | the time, as well as of the reigns |
| 7682 | of each king, might be plainly set |
| 7683 | forth. |
| 7684 | Thus it will be found, |
| 7685 | that the complete sum of the |
| 7686 | years amounts |
| 7687 | to 1280.—£us. |

| 7742 | syrians, who had held it 1070 |
| 7743 | years, to the Medes, from this |
| 7744 | time, for a period of 870 years. |

| 7830 | nevertheless |
| 7831 | extend |

| 10175 | Then’ Cronus and the other twelve |
| 10176 | divinities reigned 3984. |
| 10177 | + This number is also mentioned by Jamblichus, in connexion with Egyptian |
| 10178 | history, as the number of the Hermaic books, perhaps allowing a book to each year. |

| 10467 | After him Typhon, 45 years. |
| 10468 | The sum of the reigns of the |
| 10469 | Gods amounts to 1550 years. |
| 10470 | Then succeeds the kingdom |

| 10472 | First reigned Anubes Amu- |
| 10473 | sim, who composed the writings |
| 10474 | of the Egyptians, 83 years. |
| 10475 | After him Apion Gramma- |

| 10644 | son of Osiris and Isis. |
| 10645 | These were the first Egyp- |
| 10646 | tian kings. |
| 10647 | After them the empire de- |
| 10648 | scended by a long succession |
| 10649 | to Bites, through a lapse of |
| 10650 | 13,900 years, reckoned, I say, |
| 10651 | in lunar years of thirty days |
| 10652 | to each: for even now they call |
| 10653 | the month a year. |

| 10870 | containing thirty dynasties in 113 |
| 10871 | descents, during the long period of |
| 10872 | 36525. years. |
| 10873 | The first series of |
| 10874 | princes was that of the Aurite ; the |
| 10875 | second was that of the Mestrzans; |
| 10876 | the third of Egyptians. |
| 10877 | It runs as |
| 10878 | follows : |
| 10879 | Tue reign of the gods according |
| 10880 | to the Old Chronicle. |
| 10881 | To Hepheestus is assigned no time, |
| 10882 | as he is apparent both by night and |
| 10883 | day. |
| 10884 | Helius |
| 10885 | the son |
| 10886 | of Hephestus |
| 10887 | reigned three myriads of years. |
| 10888 | Then Cronus and the other twelve |
| 10889 | divinities reigned 3984 years. |
| 10890 | Next in order are the demigods, |
| 10891 | in number eight, who reigned 217 |
| 10892 | years. |
| 10893 | . |
| 10894 | | |
| 10895 | After these are enumerated 15 ge- |
| 10896 | nerations of the Cynic circle, which |
| 10897 | extend to 443 years. |
| 10898 | | |
| 10899 | The 16th Dynasty |

| 16069 | racters, upon the columns set up in |
| 16070 | the Seriadic land, by Thoth, the first |
| 16071 | Hermes; and, after the deluge, trans- |
| 16072 | lated from the sacred dialect into the |
| 16073 | Greek tongue, in hieroglyphic cha- |

| 16132 | Manetho, the |

| 16137 | greeting : |
| 16138 | It is right for us, most mighty |
| 16139 | king, to pay due attention to all things |
| 16140 | which it is your pleasure we should |
| 16141 | take into consideration. |
| 16142 | In answer |

| 16145 | the world, I shail, according to your |
| 16146 | commands, lay before you what I |

| 16214 | We had formerly a king whose name |
| 16215 | was Timaus. |
| 16216 | In his time it came to |
| 16217 | pass, I know not how, that God |
| 16218 | was displeased with us: and there |
| 16219 | came up from the East in a strange |
| 16220 | manner men of an ignoble race, who |
| 16221 | had the confidence |
| 16222 | to invade our |
| 16223 | country, and easily subdued it by |
| 16224 | their power without a battle. |
| 16225 | And |
| 16226 | when they had our rulers in their |
| 16227 | hands, they burnt |
| 16228 | our cities, and |
| 16229 | demolished the temples of the gods, |
| 16230 | and inflicted every kind of barbarity |
| 16231 | upon the inhabitants, slaying some, |
| 16232 | and reducing the wives and children |
| 16233 | of others to a state of slavery. |
| 16234 | At |
| 16235 | length they made one of themselves |
| 16236 | king, whose name was Salatis: |
| 16237 | he |
| 16238 | lived at Memphis, and rendered both |
| 16239 | the upper and lower regions of Egypt |

| 16345 | called Avaris; |

| 16436 | period of their dynasty, they made |
| 16437 | war upon the Egyptians with the |
| 16438 | hope of exterminating the whole race. |
| 16439 | All this nation was styled Hycsos, |
| 16440 | that is the Shepherd Kings; for the |
| 16441 | first syllable, Hyc, in the sacred dia- |
| 16442 | lect, denctes a king, and Sos signifies |
| 16443 | a shepherd, but this only according |
| 16444 | to the vulgar tongue; and of these |
| 16445 | is compounded |
| 16446 | the term Hycsos: |
| 16447 | This |
| 16448 | people who were thus denominated. |

| 16455 | the kings of Thebais and of the other |
| 16456 | provinces of Egypt, made an insur- |
| 16457 | rection against the Shepherds, and |
| 16458 | that a long and mighty war was car- |

| 16954 | * Hud. from Vet. Int.—Qp Vulg. |
| 16955 | This king (Amenophis) was de- |
| 16956 | sirous of beholding the gods, as Orus, |
| 16957 | one of his predecessors in the king- |
| 16958 | dom, had seen them. |
| 16959 | And he com- |
| 16960 | municated his desire to a priest of the |
| 16961 | same name with himself, Amenophis, |
| 16962 | the son of Papis, who seemed to |
| 16963 | partake of the divine nature, both in |
| 16964 | his wisdom and knowledge of futu- |
| 16965 | rity: and Amenophis returned him |
| 16966 | — |
| 16967 | answer, that it was in his power to |
| 16968 | behold the gods, if he would cleanse |
| 16969 | the whole country of the lepers and |
| 16970 | other unclean persons that abounded |
| 16971 | in it. |
| 16972 | Well pleased with this information, |
| 16973 | the king gathered together out of |
| 16974 | Egypt all that laboured under any |
| 16975 | defect in body, to the amount of |
| 16976 | eighty thousand, and sent them to the |
| 16977 | quarries, which are situated on the |
| 16978 | east side of the Nile, that they might |
| 16979 | work in them and be separated from |
| 16980 | the rest of the Egyptians. |
| 16981 | And (he |
| 16982 | says) there were among them some |
| 16983 | learned priests who were |
| 16984 | affected |
| 16985 | with leprosy. |
| 16986 | And Amenophis the |
| 16987 | wise man and prophet, fearful lest |
| 16988 | the vengeance of the gods should fall |
| 16989 | both on himself and on the king, if |
| 16990 | + Hud.—Madris Al. |

What the layers are
The text as its witness or edition has it, original spelling; its dialect is a description and is never standardized.
For Egyptian texts: the transliteration with the editors' marks turned into the symbols ° * < > _ ^ (ruled 2026-09-10). For papyri: the edition's Leiden marks as the same symbols, and the editors' readings beside the scribe's as ‹scribe→editors› (ruled PAP-3).
Standardized Greco-Bohairic spelling and grammar, generated by code from the layer above under the rulings of the project.
The Kemetic alphabet, generated by code from L1.
Quoted translations where they exist, credited; otherwise model drafts, marked as drafts.
