Abstract: Abstract Chronology informs us of how much time has passed since a certain historical fact. Meanwhile, the chronological data of a narrative source describing the fact should be reduced to the modern dating units, i.e., be referred to by B.C. or A.D. This problem proves to be quite complicated, since many a historical inference depends on which date we ascribe to the events discussed in the source.
