Cainan can refer to either A variant of the name Kenan in the generations of Adam , the lists of antediluvian patriarchs given in the Torah Cainan, the son of the Arpachshad mentioned in most manuscripts of the Gospel of Luke 3 36. This reference to Cainan is present in the Septuagint and Samaritan versions of the Book of Genesis , as well as in the Book of Jubilees however, the early Christian apologists Irenaeus and Eusebius believed it to be an error, as do many modern interpreters, mainly on the basis of his omission from the Masoretic Text Masoretic Hebrew version. According to the Book of Jubilees , Cainan was taught to read by his father, and he found, carved on the rocks by former generations, an inscription preserving the science of astrology as taught by the Watchers , who had rebelled from God before the deluge. He is also stated to have married a daughter of Madai named Milcah. The Sefer ha Yashar describes Cainan, the possessor of great astrological wisdom, which had been inscribed on tables of stone, as the son of Seth and not of Arpachshad i.e., the antediluvian Kenan. In The Patriarchal Age or, the History and Religion of Mankind 1854 , George Smith writes ref http books.google.com books?id 4z6oGoyORX0C&pg RA6 PA331 IA4&dq gaspheni Smith, p. 319 ref It is remarkable that, notwithstanding the omission of the name of Cainan from the Hebrew text, and the consequent general rejection of him by historians, there are more traditions preserved of him than of his son Salah. The Alexandrine Chronicle derives the Samaritans from Cainan Eustachius Antiochenus, the Saggodians George Syncellus , the Gaspheni Epiphanius the Cajani. Besides the particulars already mentioned, it is said Cainan was the first after the flood who invented astronomy , and that his sons made a god of him, and worshiped his image after his death.

Irozii influenced the Purim plays of the Romanian Jew s generally credited as the origin of Yiddish theater and vice versa .

Typically performed by schoolteachers and deacon s, irozii initially took place in the boyar s or lord s court in later years, performances would be given in the salons of the grand houses.

Pontogeneus is an archaeocete, and its skeleton shares many similarities to that of Basilosaurus cetoides . However, the posterior thoracic vertebrae , the lumbar vertebrae, and the anterior caudal vertebrae exhibit proportions closer to those seen in members of the archaeocete Subfamily Dorudontinae , indicating that Pontogeneus represents a genus separate from Basilosaurus , and is more closely aligned to the smaller genera Zygorhiza and Dorudon . Like Basilosaurus , Pontogeneus was first recognized from Dr. Albert Koch s Hydrarchos , a skeleton he d assembled in 1845 from the fossilized remains of several different archaeocetes. Koch s sea serpent toured the US and Europe before being destroyed in the Great Chicago Fire on October 10, 1871 . However, before the specimen s destruction, some vertebrae from Hydrarchos were used to establish Zeuglodon brachyspondylus M ller, 1849 , believed to have been collected in either Choctaw or Washington counties in southern Alabama . In 1852 , Joseph Leidy had erected Pontogeneus priscus based on the centrum of a single cervical vertebra in the collections of the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia . Leidy noted that the centrum had been collected from exposures along the Washita River in Louisiana . Later, in 1936 , Remington Kellogg synonomized these two taxa to form Pontogeneus brachyspondylus . References Jones, D. E. Doctor Koch and his Immense Antediluvian Monsters .

Portal Ancient Near East Before the decipherment of Cuneiform script cuneiform text, knowledge of the history of the ancient Mesopotamia Babylonia and Assyria and was mostly dependent upon classical authorities, besides the Hebrew Bible . These testimonies were scanty and confused for times predating the 7th century BCE. Had the native history of Berossus survived, this may not have been the case all that is known of the Chaldaean historian s work, however, is derived from quotations in Josephus , Ptolemy , Chronicon Eusebius Eusebius , Chronicon Jerome Jerome and George Syncellus . Classical Greece The account of Babylon given by Herodotus is not that of an eye witness and not very extensive. In his Histories he mentions that he will devote a whole section to the history of Assyria, but this promise was unfulfilled, or perhaps the book has been lost. Herodotus opinions are disputed by Ctesias , who, however, has mistaken mythology for history, and Greek romance owed to him its Ninus and Semiramis , its Ninyas and Sardanapalus . Xenophon s account in the Anabasis Xenophon Anabasis gives information on the Achaemenid Empire of his time. Hellenistic era Berossus The authenticity of his list of 10 antediluvian kings who reigned for 120 sari or 432,000 years, has been partially confirmed by the inscriptions but his 8 postdiluvian dynasties are difficult to reconcile with the monuments, and the numbers associated with them are probably corrupt.
