Note Note XXI — NOTES TO CHAPTER III.
T. G. (Thomas George) Bonney translation
As regards the date of this inscription it is not necessary to calculate rigorously, whether the works of the building took place after that period, or began in that year, seeing that the Turkish and Arab princes date the events of their reign from the day of their accession. It is the same with the coins which are struck through the whole course of their reign.
