th e t of th e t literature, acquain ance Greek his orians with antiquity is generally confined and obscure t the t t nor was it till th e publica ion of Sep uagin , that they turned their attention t o the antiquities of their own and th e surrounding nations : and for this reason we meet with more certain notices of

The contents then of this volume are Frag ments which have been translated from foreign languages into Greek ; or have been quoted or transcribed by Greeks from foreign authors ; or have been written in th e Greek language by foreigners who have had access to th e archives of their own respective countries . They are arranged

Eusebius .

The Chaldaean Fragments are chiefly from B e ro ssu s and M ega sth en e s .

B erossu s the , a Babylonian, flourished in reign of A m t m a t At : lexander, and lived so e i e hens and according to many wrote his Chald aean history in the t of Greek language . As a pries Belus he

t the the possessed every advan age, which records of temple and the learning and traditions of the Chaldaeans could afford ; and seems t o have c om posed his work with a serious regard for truth . H e has sketched his history of the earlier times from the representations on the walls of the temples : m tt t t fro wri en records and radi ionary knowledge, he learned s everal points to o well authenticated to be called in question ; and correcting the one by the other h a s produced the strange history before us .

t m t t the ae The firs frag en , a ca alogue of Chald an

K th e ings , has been preserved by Apollodorus ; and

t t he m t second, ano her version of sa e wi h an epi t m of th e t the Ab d enu s a o e accoun of deluge , by y , t disciple of Aristotle . The large extrac preserved

A t t m va lu a by lexander Polyhis or, is ex re ely ble ; and contains a store of very cur ious informa tion . The first book of the history opens naturally t enough wi h a description of Babylonia . Then

taken place . U nconscious that Noah is represented

the t B erossu s under charac er of Oannes, describes

him m the t , fro hieroglyphical delinea ion, as a being

th e t t the t passing na ural, ins ead of diluvian, nigh

in the t t m t t sea, wi h o her circu s ances indica ive t of his charac er and life . The instructions of the Patriarch are detailed

he h e t t t t . t in nex series of pain ings In firs of which ,

I the t th e conceive, Chaos is por rayed by confusion of the limbs of every kind of animal : the second represents the creation of the universe : the third i t t of the formation of mankind others aga n ha

m th e . ani als, and of heavenly bodies The second book appears to have comprehended

- t the history of th e ante diluvian world : and in his t the two first fragments ought to have been inser t m to f th e ed . The his orian see s have con ounded history of the world with that of Chaldaea . He finds t nine persons, probably represen ed as kings, pre

n N t cedi g oah , who is here again in roduced under

th e m the t the Orion , Ni rod of Scrip ures, was founder of Babylon and the first king : couse

t him a t th e to Xisuthru s quen ly he places p , and follows a s the tenth . The destruction of the records by Na bonn a sa r left him to fill up the intermediate n m a s t n ot a es he could and who are inser ed, is so easy to determine . If they are th e predecessors of Noah ; who are th e Ann e d oti that appear to them ? or can these appearances relate to any ante - dilu vian transactions of the Patriarch ? If they are the of m the t successors Ni rod, appearances of he An n e d oti ma y refer to visits of the Patria rch and his

The fragments of Z oroaster are generally known

b the n a wa s res a the com Possi ly me Che or Ares, v ried by & c . mon prefixes of Men , Ach , of Z by the title o f the Chaldaic Oracle oroaster . A fe w of them were first published by Ludovicus

ile t a n u s a t t the mm t of T Paris , wi h co en aries Pleth o to which were subsequently added those of t t Ps ellu s . The res were collec ed by Franciscus

triciu s m the of m Sim Pa fro works Proclus, Her ias,

s . t n the ophia S a ley in his lives of Philosophers, has

th e m t t the t given co ple e collec ion of oracles, wi h a t t t E l to ransla ion in o ng ish, which I have generally adhered . Great doubts have been entertained respecting the authenticity of these oracles : bu t the variety of t m t t au hors by who hey have been quo ed, and t t t hroughou whose works hey lie dispersed, speaks

something in their favour . That they were the m t t forgery of so e Gnos ic , is an opinion which S an ley thinks sufficiently refuted by the gre a t vene ration in which they were held by the Platonic

school .

Z t if n ot t t The oracles of oroas er , genuine ex rac s, a t least contain the genuine doctrine o f the Sab aean

Theology . The writings which are extant under the title of the Hermetic books though of a far

m t t the c om ore suspicious charac er , and eviden ly

t of t m t posi ions a la er age, have by several e inen writers been also supposed to contain the real doc

t e t t rines of th Egyptian Buddhis s . Bo h savour per X X II

haps to o strongly of the Platonic philosophy . bu t the m t t that peculiar phraseology, by which a eriali y

t i s m t t t m of their subjec subli a ed in o a spiri ual for ,

to the t t must be attributed Greek ransla ors , who

had deeply imbibed the doctrines of that school . The Periplus of Hanno is an account of the ear liest voya ge of discovery extant . It was taken from an original and appa rently official document

the t m t a t which was suspended in e ple of Sa urn, t it t Carthage . Mr . Falconer has edi ed as a separa e

a n d tw o t t it the t work, gives disser a ions on ; firs ,

n t its t t the a expla a ory of con en s ; and second, a ref

’ t its u ta tion of Mr . Dodwell s reflec ions on a then

. t ticity . I have followed Mr Falconer bo h in his

t t a n d t t . t t t o its . ex ransla ion Wi h respec age , Mr Falconer a grees with Bougainville in referring it

t t f t e to the six h cen ury be ore h Christian era .

f fe w t The Periplus is pre aced by a lines, reci ing a decree of the Carthaginians relative to the voyage and its objects : and is then continued as a

t the mm c om narra ive, by co ander or one of his

the forgeries, which have been issued as produc tions of the authors of these fragments There is a complete s et which was composed in Latin by

An niu s m of V t . But it , a onk i erbo is a singular m t m t t circu s ance, and one which igh be urged wi h great force against th e genuineness of almost the

c t t t n ot the t whole ollec ion , ha only original au hors

but t t m have perished, hose also, hrough whose eans

these relics have been handed down . With th e

d e ce ssors .

It is necessary also t o advert to the numerous

e errors which will b found in every sheet . The fragments have been exposed to more than the

mm t t o co on risks, and acciden s, which all ancient writings have been subject . They have been

t m the e t t ei her copied fro rud annals of an iqui y, or sketched from historical paintings or hieroglyphical t m t m t t f m records, hey have been so e i es ransla ed ro

h e t the mm the t sacred, in o co on language of place , and again translated into Greek ; then passed in

t t m to s tt quo a ion fro hand hand, and are now ca ered

the of the t the t over works fa hers, and wri ers of the I t m m . t m t t Ro an e pire is a er of surprise hen, X XV

n ot t t t t t ha hey abound in error and uncer ain y, but that so much has been preserved . For my o wn errors and inadvertencies I beg leave humbly to

et I m t I m apologise, y us confess have so e reason t o congratulate myself on finding in the above a

m t t t m ma “ cloak, under which a ul i ude of he y be con

‘ c e a le d to t t ma , and which a chari able disposi ion y refer a s many as it pleases without even recurring

” to the errors of the press . Several of these fragments are preserved in two t ff t t m or hree di eren au hors, each of who con t ff t of the m diff n ot ains a di eren version sa e, ering

m the ut i the of so uch in o line, and n general flow

a s t t it t words, in hose echnical ies and varia ions of termination which were necessary to adapt them

’ tothe t t it ha s au hor s s yle, and been a source of some little perplexity t o determine which of these various readings t o prefer .

E S s To usebius, yncellus, and Josephu , we are principally indebted for these relics of antiquity . The authors of themare repeatedly cited in the S tro m t m the a a of Cle ens Alexandrinus, and in works

t C e dren us th e t of the of Jus in, , and fa hers lower empire : but unfortunately no extracts have been

. Diod orus Siculu s preserved has borrowed largely, but has incorporated th e substance of his quotations

in the body of his own work .

’ s s a H t For Jo ephu I h ve followed udson s edi ion . The Cologne edition of the Praepa ra tio Evangelica e but of Eusebius is often c on sidered as th e best : upon close inspection and comparison I have been t the induced t o prefer the text of Stephen . Wi h t s t t t exception of a mutilated ran la ion in o La in, ’ t t t t Eusebius Chronicle is lost . Under ha i le how ever Scaliger has industriously compiled a very

t t m t , por ly folio, which, wi h so e o her Chronicles contains a c ollection of all the fragments of the

t t E t t . S n Greek ex of usebius, ha could be found y c ellus has been magnificently edited a t Paris under t t the patronage of Louis the fourteenth . By ha father very copious extracts have been preserved . H e professes to follow the original documents more t t closely ha his predecessors, and as his Parisian

m k the m t t o t I editor a es sa e pre ences fideli y, have very generally taken his text as th e groundwork . To correct all the palpable grammatical errors

t it f t t k . con ained in , would be a di ficul under a ing ff t it s m m To e ec in o e degree, I have availed yself

the m a t the m the ff t of e end ions of argin , and of di eren

di to f E B ut e rea ngs be ound in usebius . in no cas have I presumed to alter without authority ; and where neither the margin nor Eusebius afforded t t I m tt the to sta ha , have per i ed error nd as I found it . The alteration of a single letter would some times correct a gross grammatical mistake : yet a t the same time by retaining the letters as they t m ff s and, and aking a di erent division of them

t o ff t m ma in o w rds, a di eren eaning y be elicited . a m t of ot t This work being ere collec ion qu a ions, X XV II

I have not deviated from the usual method o f quoting without the points . In most cases we
