Excerpt from Carnatic Chronology, the Hindu and Mahomedan Methods of Reckoning Time Explained: With Essays on the Systems, Symbols Used for Numerals, a New Titular Method of Memory, Historical Records, and Other Subjects Some English authors, more visionary than exact, have tried to make up in daring theories what they wanted in precise knowledge.
