A Roman Empire With Seven Dynasties – 

A question for AI. Just ask him. Did the Roman Empire have seven dynasties? He will say no but will then give a list of seven. Did Newton suggest horns were dynasties?  He did and they are named by Islamic Art. The Byzantine Empire, a Christian empire that lasted a thousand years, started with the seven dynasties of Rome and ended with the ten dynasties of Islam. Its capital, Constantinople was attacked by Islam in 666. There you have all the key numbers.

a number, a mark, a date, a year, 666 

A Place To Start – 

A Julian calendar starting in 44 BC would have the Hijra of 622 starting in 666. Gibbon has the attack on Constantinople starting 46 years after the Hijra. Put 46 in an Islamic calendar converter and you will get 666. A calculation in most translations, not a count. Daniel has number of the years. That is where you get a clue.

A ground chuck 80/20, onions, garlic, chili powder, cumin, paprika, chicken broth, and dark red kidney beans. Salt and crushed red pepper after she takes the mild version. Goes well with elbow macaroni, American cheese, and raw onions. Best medicine for a sore throat.
