Cronologia e 607 AEC · Claim record

O diário astronômico VAT 4956, conservado no Vorderasiatisches Museum, em Berlim, e editado por Abraham Sachs e Hermann Hunger como Diary No. -567, começa assim: 'Year 37 of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon.' As observações que ele registra situam esse ano em 568/567 AEC, o que colocaria o décimo oitavo ano de Nabucodonosor, quando Jerusalém foi destruída, em 587 AEC.

A posição da organização ou explicação posterior: A organização argumenta que treze conjuntos de posições lunares na tabuinha correspondem a 588/587 AEC e que, portanto, a tabuinha apoia 607 AEC (A Sentinela, 1.º de novembro de 2011, pp. 25, 27; seu quadro sobre a tabuinha está nas pp. 26-27).

The opening line of the tablet, which fixes the whole set of observations that follow to a named king's named regnal year.

“The 15th, one god was seen with the other; sunrise to moonset: 7° 30'. A lunar eclipse which passed by […]”

The single lunar eclipse recorded on the tablet. It is one datum among roughly thirty lunar and planetary observations; the Watch Tower's 2011 argument concentrates on it and on one lunar position.

Nota de confiança. Read in the eBL API record on 19 September 2026. The eBL bibliography for this tablet also carries a discussion entry for F. Richard Stephenson and David M. Willis, “The Earliest Datable Observation of the Aurora Borealis”, Under One Sky (2002), pp. 421-428, with the note “This and other observations in the month imply that the auroral display occurred on the night of March 12/13 in 567 BC”. That date is Stephenson and Willis’s conclusion as reported by eBL, not a finding of eBL’s own, and their chapter was not opened.

Chronicles of Chaldaean Kings (626-556 B.C.) in the British Museum, “Introduction: Egypt and Babylon”

1956 · p.30 · D. J. Wiseman · The Trustees of the British Museum, London

“a fragmentary text, B.M. 33041, which is a religious rather than a 'Chronicle' version of historical events in the thirty-seventh year of Nebuchadrezzar (568/7 B.C.)”

Discussing the Babylonian invasion of Egypt, Wiseman dates Nebuchadnezzar II's thirty-seventh year to 568/567 BCE on the basis of a tablet entirely independent of the astronomical diary VAT 4956.
