1034. Ammon Reigns in Egypt.  He conquered Libya, and reduced that people from a wandering savage life to a civil one, and taught them to lay up the fruits of the earth; and from him Libya and the desert above it were anciently called Ammonia.  He was the first that built long and tall ships with sails, and had a fleet of such ships on the Red Sea, and another on the Mediterranean at Irasa in Libya.  ’Till then they used small and round vessels of burden, invented on the Red Sea, and kept within sight of the shore.  For enabling them to cross the seas without seeing the shore, the Egyptians began in his days to observe the Stars:  and from this beginning Astronomy and Sailing had their rise.  Hitherto the Lunisolar year had been in use:  but this year being of an uncertain length, and so, unfit for Astronomy, in his days and in the days of his sons and grandsons, by observing the Heliacal Risings and Setting of the Stars, they found the length of the Solar year, and made it consist of five days more than the twelve calendar months of the old Lunisolar year.
