After Royal Earth comes Jin-Hwang-She, "Sovereign Man," who divided the land, and was forty-five thousand years about it. Following the string of their traditions, we come down to two thousand three hundred and fifty-six years before Christ, when was founded the first dynasty, that of Te-yaou, according to their chronology, Hea being Emperor, or Chief, as De Guignes rationally supposes.
This is about the time of the dispersion of the human family, and, I think, the proper date for the birth of this nation. Let that be as it may, there is a great similarity between their traditions and our sacred record. Their first man was produced by superior power, and was placed over the inferior animals. In the reign of Te-yaou there was an account of a great flood.
