"The Annals of the Four Masters"  begins "when darkness was upon the
face of the earth". "Milesian Kings" begins in 3501 BC. "Japhet was
the eldest son of Noah. He had fifteen sons, amongst whom he divided
Europe and the part of Asia which his father had allotted to him." -
that's from Milesian Genealogies. 

I guess we'll have to excuse all those old guys for calling tracing
bloodlines genealogy. Would a sub for Mythology be Creative
Reconstruction?
