• One source calls the city Ellaser (Larsa).
  • Some call king #3 as Kidunnu-Sakinkin, where Enmenluanna is mentioned as king #5, in Bad-tibira, which in most cases he is king #3.
  • Berosus, the Babylonian priest, called king #3, Amelon, as in the city of Panti-Biblos.

• If the Flood occurred around 6,000 B.C. as I propose, then #3 would be Mahalel (Mahaleel) who lived to be 895 years old, and had a son Jared at age 65 or at 165 years of age, between 6696-7196 B.C.
      If king #3 with 43,200 years ruled which is based on 12 sars, claimed to be 3,600 years for each sar, is actually 3,600 days, then the value would change to around 120 years ruled.    If a sar were equal to 18 years and 11 days, then it would be 222 years ruled.    This puts it more in range of the birth of Mahalel's son, Jared.
