I n pages 235, 245, 254, the reader is referred for some account
of the Samanian Dynasty to this article of the Appendix; and in
the Preface also, p. x, a passage is quoted from Abulfeda, which
mentions a prince of this family.
The learned D'Herbelot, in his account of the Samanians*
#
(which he collected from a chronicle, expressly written on the
subject of their history, and another excellent work, the Leb-
tarikh) notices a difference of calculation in respect to the dura
tion of this dynasty, which commenced in the year of the Hegira
20l (A. D. c^74), and terminated in the year 388, (A. D. 998.)
