Waddell's Chronology
Background
Waddell's chronology or Waddell's king list is an Ancient Near Eastern chronology developed by the British polyhistor Laurence Waddell in his book, Egyptian Civilization: Its Sumerian Origin and Real Chronology, published in 1930.[1][2][3][4][5]Waddell's primary chronology was compiled from various Sumerian king lists, Egyptian list of pharaohs, the Bhagavata Purana, Mahabharata, Rigveda and numerous Indus Valley Civilization seals and other monuments and relics and sources, some of which he had deciphered himself.[2] It was entitled "Dated Chronological List of Sumerian or Early Aryan Kings from the Rise of Civilization to the Kassi Dynasty" and documented an alleged list of world emperors as follows:No.Names in Sumerian King Lists and monumentsDate BC(approximate)Indian list names1Ukusi of Ukhu City or Udu, Uduin, or Odin, Indar, Induru,Dur, Pur, Sakh, Sagaga, Zagg, Gaur, or AdarFirst Sumerian Dynasty3378–3349 BCIkshvāku or Indra or Sakko or Pururavas2Azag Ama Basam or Bakus, Tasia, Mukhla, Gin, Gan or Kan or Nimmirud3348–3337 BCAyus, Ama-Basu or Bikukshi-NimiAzag Bakus or Gan at Unuk, Enoch or Erech City3336–3273 BCAs Above3Naksha, Enuzu, Anenzu, Unnusha, In, EnuSecond Sumerian Dynasty3272–3248 BCNahusha, Anenas or Janak4Udu, Uduk3247–3242 BCUdā-vasu, Yadu, Yayati, (?)

Conventional lists separate Sargon from Menes by around five hundred years. Gabriel Moshenka however mentions that some elements of his work "while unquestionably esoteric, were not so far from the academic mainstream as we might now suppose".[6]References[edit]Jump up ^ Duncan Macnaughton (1932).
