In the account of
Jason and the Argonauts, a primitive globe was said to have been
constructed upon which was marked the position of the ecliptic
where it passed thorough specific parts of the signs of the
Zodiac. Using 1689AD as a base, and his rate of precession of
72yrs per degree, the primitive sphere could be placed 2627 years
earlier -- 939BCE. This was roughly 40-60yr after the death of
Solomon in around 980, according to Ussher. This was separate and
independent evidence to support the same conclusion derived from
genealogies, working back using more realistic reign lengths for
the intervening kings. A date for the battle of Troy was then
fixed from the evidence of Herodotus, who said this was one
generation after the voyage to Colchis, the land of the Golden
Fleece. Hence the fall of Troy was dated to around 900.
