Parallelism between the Kingdom of Judah (10th-6th centuries BC) & the Eastern Roman Empire (4th - 7th century AD). This is an example of what Fomenko calls "a secondary parallelism", i.e., according to his theory, both dynastic lines represent two different "reflections" of a historical sequence of rulers who lived after 10th century AD. Note the amount of effort required to achieve accurate match - 7th century Byzantine emperors are shuffled, some of them are merged together, two long fragments are removed from each dynasty ( years 841-767 BC and 565-641 AD, respectively ); two religious leaders - Arius and Basil - are inserted in the list of emperors with rather arbitrary "reign durations". Parallels between individual rulers' biographies are rare and superficial. Fomenko explains that secondary parallelisms involve twice the amount of accidental duplication and thus they are likely to differ more due to errors introduced with each duplication.
