The use of astronomy in history and chronology exemplified: in an inquiry into the fall of the stone into the Aegospotamos; said to have been foretold by Anaxagoras. In which is attempted to be shewn, that Anaxagoras did not foretell the Fall of that Stone; but the Solar Eclipse in the first Year of the Peloponnesian War. That what he saw was a Comet at the Time of the Battle of Salamis: And that this Battle was probably fought the Year before Christ 478; or two Years later than it is commonly fixed by Chronologers
