Ussher chronology
The Ussher chronology is a 17th-century chronology of the history of the world formulated from an interpretative reading of the Bible by James Ussher, the Anglican Archbishop of Armagh (in what is now Northern Ireland). The chronology is sometimes, and often mockingly, associated with Young Earth Creationism, that holds that the universe was created only a few millenia ago.
