In antiquity, educated Greeks accepted the truth of human events depicted in the "Iliad" and "Odyssey", even as philosophical scepticism was undermining faith in divine intervention in human affairs. In the time of Strabo, topographical disquisitions discussed the identity of sites mentioned by Homer. This continued when Greco-Roman culture was Christianised: Eusebius of Caesarea offered universal history reduced to a timeline, in which Troy received the same historical weight as Abraham, with whom Eusebius' "Chronologia" began, ranking the Argives and Mycenaeans among the kingdoms ranged in vertical columns, offering biblical history on the left (verso), and secular history of the kingdoms on the right (recto). Jerome's "Chronicon" followed Eusebius, and all the medieval chroniclers began with summaries of the universal history of Jerome.
