Prior to the year AD 1865, the Jewish style namely, the Year of the World, was observed by Red Men in dating their documents. At the Council held in G. S. 5626, this system was discontinued and G. S. D. (Great Sun of Discovery) was adopted, the year of 1492 being considered G. S. D. 1. For convenience it was determined that the Great Sun should commence on the first of the Cold Moon, to conform to the common era.
