Epoch. 13. A. M. C. 2599. ante Evang. 1434. Period. 5. 231.

A quo Triptolemus fruges sevit in Raria dicta Eleusine anni 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 [item 1145] regnante Athenis [eodem, sc. Erichtheo, quanquam istic obliterato nomine.]

Ego vero hic in postrema litera numerali erratum suspicor, tum quia nus∣quam alias in tota hac Inscriptione Marmoreâ idem numerus, sive eadem E∣pocha repetitur, tum etiam quia admodum probabile est alterum aut ter∣tium annum intercessisse inter primum communicatam hujusmodi cognitio∣nem, & ejus experientiam in tam celebri loco factam. Legendum itaque posteriori loco 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 1142, id est, ante Evangelium 1434 regnante eodem Erichtheo, & quidem anno 18. Atque ita in Chronico Eusebiano circa eundum annum Evangelii, verum octennium ante regnum Erichthei, juxta inferiorem annis 26 in hoc situm regum Atticorum, legitur, Eleusine Celeum regnasse, quo aevo Triptolemus erat, quem Philochorus ait longâ navi ad urbes accedentem distribuisse frumenta, navem vero ejus existima∣tam pinnatum serpentem, utpote habentem fere similem figuram. Hic enim est Graecorum Eusebii eo loco sensus. Rarium vero dictum Eleusinis agrum quo Triptolemus primam frumenti sementem fecerit, agnoscit Pausanias: quod quidem videatur fuisse Rari illius, quem nonnullos patrem Triptolemi existimâsse antea retulerat. Fortasse socer ejus fuit.
