Frequently Asked Questions
It starts at 4004 B.C. Is this a creationist product?
It's an 1871 document, reproduced faithfully, by a minister who dated the world by Ussher. We sell it as a historical artifact and a horizontal-history reference. Plenty of secular history buffs own it β and yes, the first panel is Adam and Eve. See our three admissions above.
How accurate is it?
As accurate as an educated 1871 American could make it, which is to say: the sequence and the shapes are sound; specific ancient dates have been revised since. Treat it as a map of how the nineteenth century saw time, and as a genuinely useful βwhat was simultaneousβ reference.
Is this the original 1871 or a later edition?
It's the third edition, updated by Christ Comic. The chart itself is Adams' β the same streams, the same lifespan bars, the same Victorian lettering he drew in 1871 and extended in 1881 to run 5,885 years, from 4004 B.C. to 1881 A.D. What we've changed is the reproduction, not the history:
What's the guarantee?
90 days. Unroll it. If it isn't what you remembered from the library, send it back for a full refund.
4 things this chart does that nothing else on your shelf can
In 1871 a minister drew every nation as a colored stream and every life as a bar the length of its years.
~ 6,000 years, starting from 4004 B.C. to 2,000,
23 feet long. Starting from Adam and Eve
You see who lived when, for the whole of Scripture and the whole of the world
Every life drawn as long as it lasted. Egypt, Israel, Assyria, China. Biblical figures. Confucius, the Buddha, and the fall of Jerusalem within a lifetime of each other. For the first time in history, you're going to be able to see how the people in the Old Testament overlapped each other.
It folds into a book, 23 feet that lives on a shelf
Twenty-one panels, hardback. Open one panel on the table, or all of it down a hallway. .

It's the 1871 chart, not a modern redraw
The third edition sharpens the reproduction, but the streams, the lifespan bars, and the Victorian lettering are Adams' own. What you hold is what an educated American saw in 1871
Made to be used, and it lasts for generations
Heavy stock, sewn hardback, folded rather than rolled. The chart is printed on a heavy paper, so it holds up well to repeated use.
Real stories from real Buyers

βIt makes clear some of the earliest people were alive when Noah started building the ark. Seeing the juxtaposition of world events to Bible events makes understanding how Bible events fit into the world much more clear. This is something secular history books ignore.β

βWhen reading either Genesis, Isaiah or Acts, this well detailed timeline really helps the reader better understand the culture, politics and history surrounding biblical times, events and people.β
