To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
M. Is i 543, so that there is no doubt as to the year. The accounts agree that it was fought on a Wednesday. Perruchon and Hasset give respectively the iGih and 17th Yakatit, that is, Feb- ruary loth or iith, but in 1543 these dates fell on a Saturday and a Sunday. The verbiage of the text, translated by Conzelman, refers to the same month, Yakatit, but gives the 28lh, that is February 32nd. And a Thursday. Ksteves Pereira quotes a manuscript chronicle of Sartsa Uengel (which I have not seen), ...which gives the date 27th Yakatit, that is, Feljiuary 21st, and a Wednesday. There is anotlier method of calculating the exact date. When the Imam Ahmad was killed, Gaiawdcwos had been on the throne eight davs under two years and six months. As . '\l)yssinian months have each thirty days, this means two years and one hundred and seventy-two days. Gaiaw- dcwos' father, Lebna Dengel, died on September 2nd, 1 540 ; from that day to the end of 1540 there were one hundred and twenty days, which leaves two years and fifty-two days.
