A CLEAR DATING OF DARK AGES by Gerard Gertoux

The best way to rebuild the chronology before the fall of Babylon in October 539 BCE is using synchronisms dated by astronomy. Assyrian, Babylonian, Egyptian and Israelite chronologies provide synchronisms that can be dated independently. For example, Assyrian chronology may rebuilt for the period 911-609 only thanks to eponyms. The list of Assyrian eponyms is anchored on the solar eclipse occurred on Simanu (month III, day 30) in the eponymy of Bur-Sagale (dated June 15, 763 BCE). The Assyrian period 911-648 is dated owing to its canonical eponyms and the period 648-609 by a prosopography of its eponyms. A few eponyms are non canonical because they died during the year of their eponymy and there are also some gaps of 1 year between eponym dates and regnal years in tablet with double dates because the first Assyrian regnal year (accession) was reckoned in either system: year 0 (Babylonian) or year 1 (Assyrian). Thus, as there are exactly 154 canonical eponyms between Gargamisaiu and Bur-Sagale, which is dated 763 BCE, that involves to date the one of Gargamisaiu [Aššur-uballit II] 609 (= 763 - 154).
