Many truths lie buried in the dark depth of the past covered over by numerous strata of forgotten events. I propose to dig up on one of them, one that would have to combat the history of the primitive ages as it is commonly accepted and also the cherished theories of the scholar of the east and the west, both old and new. What I fear is that the importance of the discovery may fail to attract the attention of the learned world through my own insignificance, utterly unknown to fame as I am. But I consider the task I have set upon myself to be of great moment, and nothing undaunted I intend to strike out the path, for diligence in the cause of truth is destined to bring its reward and recognition of the truth itself.
I begin by recapitulation first the results of my investigation to create, if possible, an interest in the subject at the outset.
