Ad Sons of
Ad, Sons of (Chaldean?) Used by Mahatma KH in response to a question asked by Sinnett whether there had ever been civilizations "as great as our own in regard to intellectual development": "Do you know that the Chaldees were at the apex of their Occult fame before what you term as the 'bronze Age'? That the 'Sons of Ad' or the children of the Fire Mist preceded by hundreds of centuries the Age of Iron, which was an old age already, when what you now call the Historical Period . . . had hardly begun" (ML 145, 153).
