"The number of years assigned to each [Egyptian]
king, and consequently the length of time covered by the
dynasties, differ in these two copies, so that, while the
work of Manetho forms the backbone of our chronology,
it gives us no absolutely reliable chronology."—George
A. Barton, Archaeology and the Bible, p. 11.

"In composing his history of Egypt and putting together
a register of its dynasties, Manetho was guided by
the desire to prove to the Greeks, the masters of his land,
that the Egyptian people and culture were much older
than theirs and also older than the Babylonian nation and
civilization."—*I. Velikovsky, Peoples of the Sea (1977),
p. 207
