	Tarutius and the foundation of Rome
		My guess is that he did not use those formulae but just took the date of one of the equinoxes known to him, perhaps one of Hipparchus, and computed back with the usual value for the tropical year, 365+1/4 days.
		while Varro himself preferred the year 753 BC for reasons that are unknown to us; in later times that date became the 'official' foundation date, because of his great authority in all fields of knowledge.
		It is therefore very probable that the date Tarutius considered for the foundation of Rome was Pharmouthi 9 of the third year of the sixth Olympiad, between the second and third hour, which is equivalent to October 4, 754 BC at 7:40 UT of the Julian Calendar.

	New Catholic Dictionary: Jonas (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		The home of Jonas is now identified with El Meshed, about five miles northeast of Nazareth, in the tribal territory of Zebulon; thus he belonged to the northern kingdom.
		The period of his ministry is determined by its connection with the reign of Jeroboam II (783-743 BC), practically coinciding with the era of decline in the Assyrian Empire which came between the two powerful rulers, Adadnirari III (810-782 BC) and Theglathphalasar III (745-728 BC).
		Consequently we can account for much in Jonas's career: that he could foretell the victories of Jeroboam; that he could speak of the grandeur of Ninive as past; that he could preach to a nation once proud, now crushed.
