Why don't you guys just search on the internet:

Oh, they did "search" the internet - and they found only what they wanted to
find. Interesting how that works.

BEROSSUS:
FROM APOLLODORUS.

OF THE CHALDÆAN KINGS.

   THIS is the history which Berossus has transmitted to us. He tells
us that the first king was Alorus of Babylon, a Chaldæan: he reigned
ten sari: and afterwards Alaparus, and Amelon who came from
Pantibiblon: then Ammenon the Chaldæan, in whose time appeared the
Musarus Oannes the Annedotus from the Erythræan sea. (But Alexander
Polyhistor anticipating the event, has said that he appeared in the
first year; but Apollodorus says that it was after forty sari;
Abydenus, however, makes the second Annedotus appear after twenty-six
sari.) Then succeeded Megalarus from the city of Pantibiblon; and he
reigned eighteen sari: and after him Daonus the shepherd from
Pantibiblon reigned ten sari; in his time (he says) appeared again from
the Erythræan sea a fourth Annedotus, having the same form with those
above, the shape of a fish blended with that of a man. Then reigned
Euedorachus from Pantibiblon, for the term of eighteen sari; in his
days there appeared another personage from the Erythræan sea like the
former, having the same complicated form between a fish and a man,
whose name was Odacon. (All these, says Apollodorus, related
particularly and circumstantially whatever Oannes had informed them of:
concerning these Abydenus has made no mention.) Then reigned
Amempsinus, a Chaldæan from Laranchæ: and he being the eighth in
order reigned ten sari. Then reigned Otiartes, a Chaldæan, from
Laranchæ; and he reigned eight sari. And upon the death of Otiartes,
his son Xisuthrus reigned eighteen sari: in his time happened the great
deluge. So that the sum of all the kings is ten; and the term which
they collectively reigned an hundred and twenty sari.-Syncel. Chron.
39.-Euseb. Chron. 5.
