In his ''Annales veteris testamenti, a prima mundi origine deducti (Annals of the Old Testament, deduced from the first origins of the world)'', Archbishop [[James Ussher]] claims that the Earth was [[creationism|created]] in the year 4004 BC, from calculations derived from the generations of the [[Bible]].
:"In the beginning God created Heaven and Earth, Gen. 1, v. 1. Which beginning of time, according to our Chronologie, fell upon the entrance of the night preceding the twenty third day of Octob[er] in the year of the Julian [Period] 710. The year before Christ 4004. The Julian Period 710."
