[edit] Manuscript dates
as I have also put in the 'History of Freemasonry' talk section Regius is now thought to date from the early 15th century not 1390, also the kirkwall scroll is usually accepted as dating from the second half of the 18th century, by most scholars except for andrew(?) sinclair whose book on the subject is predicated on it being considerably older. bamboodragon 1:21 19 March 2007 (UTC)
- Well, comparing the dates, "early 15th century" would make Regius 1400-1450, as opposed to 1390, and 1785 is in the latter half of the 18th century (1750-1800). And? MSJapan 01:42, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
the 'consensus' for the date of 1390 is a consensus amongst who? and yes obviously 1785 is in the 2nd half of the 18th century but is it really much older? the idea that it is of great antiquity is questionable bamboodragon 01:57 19/3/2007
