HISTORICAL ERAS

Alexandrian Sages divide the history of the world into five ages, based upon what power or powers hold divine authority. Most of these ages are subdivided into sub-ages for ease of classification and study.

The Timeline_of_major_events might be a helpful addition to the following information.
