APPENDIX V
PARALLEL YEARS OF THE GREEK, SYRIAN, ROMAN, AND CHRISTIAN ERAS[1608]
[1608] According to Clinton, Fasti Hellenici, iii. 472 sqq.
THE Olympiad era begins in B.C. 776, and is to be reckoned from 1st July.[1609] The Seleucid era begins in B.C. 312, and is to be reckoned from 1st October.[1610] The Varronian era ab Urbe condita begins in B.C. 753, and counts from the festival of the Palilia, XI. Cal. Maii=21st April.[1611] But since writers reckon by the years of office of the consuls, we have to do, not with the starting-point of the Varronian year, but with the point of time at which the consuls entered upon their office. But this took place from A.U. 601, and so continued during almost the whole of the succeeding period, on 1st January.[1612]—In the following table the respective years of the Greek, Seleucidean, and Roman eras are paralleled with the same year of the Christian era in which they begin. Thus:
