Position 4 in Its Cycle (Ages)

Ages that stand fourth in a sequence of ages, such as the Heroic Age that Hesiod inserted into the Greek myth of ages, the Fourth Sun of Aztec cosmology, the Hindu Kali Yuga as the last of the four yugas and the fourth era of the Jain descending half cycle. An entry belongs here when its tradition places it fourth in its own cycle. Ages are read here as stages of a cosmic or moral cycle, and the group page sets such stages side by side so that the same position in different traditions can be compared.
