Speaker 1 (30s): I'm assuming you've all listened to the first few sessions. So with that being said, let us jump with both feet right back into the thick of it into History or is it Fiction timekeeping in the middle ages? Historians discussed the chaos reigning in the medieval dating's peculiar in medieval. Anachronisms the scalp of Gerry in a chronological version.
I was far from being the only one. It competed with Virgin virgins. It competed with the virgins
Speaker 0 (1m 19s): Prudence.
Speaker 1 (1m 20s): That's ridiculous. It competed with aversions that were significantly different. The crumb mentions with the chaos reigning in the medieval. Dating's 70 to page 73.

The main timekeeping medium was the tolling of the church bells page 94.

It was also to be said that the ultra sophisticated chronological Kabbalah develop in the middle ages contradicts the imprecision of Tim poral observation's.
For instance, the very periods used for measuring time on earth, acquire an entirely different duration when use for measuring the biblical events, Augustine equaled every Genesis day to a millennium, thus attempting to define their duration of the history of humankind pages one Oh nine to one 10, such an inherent trait
