These rulers may not have ruled Babylonia itself for more than the briefest of periods, but rather the formerly Sumerianregions south of it. Nevertheless, it is often traditionally numbered the Second Dynasty of Babylon, and so is listed here.

Six: Ham, Shem, and the First Dynasty of Babylon
Dr. Geiger, speaking of the old Parsi calendar observes that
"probably the half-year was more employed in civil life than the complete year."
Now whether the observation be entirely correct or not, we can,
I think at any rate, assume that the division of the year
into two equal halves is an old one.—Bâl Gangâdhar Tilak, The Orion

We have already had occasion to quote from Johann Kepler in regard to the 20-year conjunctions of Jupiter and Saturn. The authors of Hamlet's Mill also reproduce the following table of his:
4000
| BC |
Adam
|
Creatio mundi
|
3200
|
Enoch
|
Latrocinia, urbes, artes, tyrannis
| |
2400
|
Noah
|
Diluvium
| |
1600
|
Moses
|
Exitus es Aegypto. Lex
| |
800
|
Isaiah
|
Aera Graecorum, Babyloniorum, Romanorum
| |
0
|
Christ
|
Monarchia Romana, Reformatio orbis
|
We see that Kepler was barking up the wrong cosmic tree, so to speak, for the cycle that we have noticed in the current work is based on 600 years and not 800 as he thought. Isaiah, therefore, should be replaced by Cyrus at 600 BC, but some of the other members of this gallery of ancient personages are correct, at least as far as Noah and "Christ" are concerned, though, as we shall see in Chapter Eight, their dates are off. We have already seen that the birth of Moses occurred in the year 1225 BC, though here, surprisingly, he has the wrong man, the actual avatar being Joshua, namesake of a later one named Yeshua.
