APPENDIX II
THE ANTEDILUVIAN KINGS
OF BEROSSUS AND
THE SUMERIAN DYNASTIC LIST
It may be of assistance to the reader to repeat in tabular form the equivalents to the mythical kings of Berossus which are briefly discussed in Lecture I. In the following table the two new equations, obtained from the earliest section of the Sumerian Dynastic List, are in upper-case.(1) The established equations to other names are in normal case, while those for which we should possibly seek other equivalents are enclosed within brackets.(2) Aruru has not been included as a possible equivalent for {’Aloros}.(3)
1. {’Aloros}
2. {’Alaparos
(? ’Adaparos)}, Alaporus, Alapaurus
(Adapa)
3. {’Amelon,
’Amillaros}, Almelon
(Amelu)
4. {’Ammenon}

5. {Megalaros,
