  The Egyptians calculated time by cycles of 1,460 years called zodiacal cycles. Their year consisted of 365 days causing them to lose one day every four solar years. Consequently they attained their original starting point only after 1,460 years (365×5). Their zodiacal cycle ending in 139 A.D. began 1,322 B.C. The Assyrian cycle was 1,805 years, or 22,235 lunations. An Assyrian cycle began 712 B.C. The Chaldeans sate that between the Deluge and their first historic dynasty was a period of 39,180 years. The meaning of this number could be 12 Egyptian cycles plus 12 Assyrian lunar zodiacal cycles:

  12 × 1,460 = 17,520
  12 × 1,805 = 21,600
  17,520 + 21,660 = 39,180

  The modes of calculating time are in agreement with each other and were known simultaneously to the Chaldeans and proceed as follows:
  

  Zodiacal Cycle 1,460 1,322	Lunar Cycle 1,805 712
  2,782	2,517
  4,242	4,322
  5,702	6,127
  7,162	7,932
  8,622	9,737
  10,082	9,737
  11,542

  In the year 11,542 B.C. the two cycles came together and consequently had in that year their common origin in one and the same astrological observation.

  If this is so, a learned civilization existed 135 centuries ago.
