Chap. XVIII New Troy Being Built, and Laws Made for the Government of It, It Is Given to the Citizens That Were to Inhabit It

At this time Eli the priest governed in Judea, and the ark of the covenant was taken by the Philistines. At the same time, also, the sons of Hector, after the expulsion of the posterity of Antenor, reigned in Troy; as in Italy did Sylvius Æneas, the son of Æneas, the uncle of Brutus, and the third king of the Latins.158
