Ptolemy from whence the name comes, was an astronemer who used astronomical events to create a list of kings and dates of their reign from Assyrian times through the successors of [[Alexander the Great|Alexander]].
It is considered to be not absolutely perfect, but essentially correct (i.e. does not contain [[Neriglissar|Neriglissar's]] accepted successor [[Labashi-Marduk]], or the debated [[Cyaxares II]]).
