The Chronology of Ancient Kingdoms Amended

The work, some 87,000 words, represents one of Newton's forays into the topic of chronology, detailing the rise and history of various ancient kingdoms throughout antiquity.First is an introductory letter to Caroline of Ansbach, the Queen of England, by John Conduitt MP, the husband of Newton's niece, followed by a short advertisement.These chapters are titled: According to John Conduitt's introductory letter, The Chronology of Ancient Kingdoms Amended was Isaac Newton's last personally revised work before his death but had actually been written much earlier.Some of its subject material and contents have led many people to categorize this work as one of Isaac Newton's occult studies.The work treats figures from Greek mythology, such as the centaur Chiron and the Argonauts, as historical fact.
