However, it cannot function on sub-subpage talk pages..

Translating table into English

Since this seems to be an orphan page anyway, I'm not sure I want to attempt the difficult "surgical" task of going into the code for the table and replacing the Chinese characters with English, but in case anybody else can do it more skilfully than I, the right-hand column of the table contains entries such as: 约前 21 时纪 - 约前 16 时纪. Here the characters mean -- I think -- (1) Approximately; (2) B.C.E.; (3-4) Century. (I.e., "Approx. 21st to 16th century B.C.E.")
