Now I have
for witnesses to what I have said, all those that have
written Antiquities, both among the Greeks and barbarians; for even Manetho, who wrote the Egyptian History, and Berosus, who collected the Chaldean Monuments, and Mochus, and Hestiaeus, and besides
these, Hieronymus the Egyptian, and those who composed the Phoenician History, agree to what I here say:
Hesiod also, and Hecataeus, Hellanieus, and Acusilaus; and besides these, Ephorus and Nicolaus relate
that the ancients lived a thousand years: but as to
these matters, let every one look upon them as he
thinks fit.
