The Aiel history does not have years in particular but a family tree does
exist.
- Charn
- When aged 25 the bore is drilled. About to marry at this time.
- Coumin, Charn's great, greatson
- When aged 16 the bore is sealed
- Jonai, Coumin's son
- When aged 63 the Aiel leave Paaren Disen
- Adan, Jonai's son
- When aged 10 the Aiel leave Paaren Disen
- Lewin, Marind's son and Adan's greatson
- Takes up the spear probably about age 20. When aged 6 some of the Aiel split off
to become Tinkers.
- Jeordam, Lewin's son
- At age 18 meets Morin who becomes the first Maiden.
- Rhodric, Jeordam's greatson
- crosses Dragonwall. Hears that Tar Valon is being built when aged 19.
- Comran, Rhodric's greatson
- trade with Ogier started
- Mandein, Comran's greatson
- The treaty of Rhuidean occurs when he is 40
Assuming that a generation is about 25 years (not a good assumption in the Age
of Legends), this means that at least 65 years passed between the opening of the bore and
the closing. Another 70 years or so must have passed between the closing and the
destruction of Paaren Disen, the creation of the Eye of the World, and the Stone of Tear.
About 45 years before the Tinkers split off and another 10 or 15 before some Aiel took up
the spear. Another 100 years or so before the Aiel cross the Dragonwall and hear that Tar
Valon is being built.

The Eye of the World
This book (minus the prologue) starts on Winternight of 998NE. Days reckoned
from dawn to dawn.
- Day 0
- Winternight - Rand and Tam visit Emond's Field. That evening their farm and the
village are attacked by Trollocs.
- Day 1
- Bel Tine - At dawn Rand, dragging his father, arrives at Emond's Field. That
evening, Rand, Mat, Perrin, and Egwene leave with Thom, Moiraine, and Lan. Before dawn
they cross the Taren. Moon only a 'thin slice less than full' (ch. 10, p. 146).
- Day 2
- Party heads towards Baerlon
- Day 7
- Party arrives at Baerlon towards evening
- Day 8
- Nynaeve joins the party. Party leaves Baerlon in the night. Moon in its last
quarter (ch. 17, p. 251)
- Day 11
- Attacked by trollocs, take refuge in Shadar Logoth, party splits. Moon 'last
thin sliver before the new moon' (ch. 19, p 291). [however moon shouldn't even be visible
at that time of night in that phase].
I can't judge accurately how much time after this point but can give some vague
estimates. Perrin and Egwene spend at least three days of travelling before meeting Elyas
(ch. 23). Meet Elyas in the evening and travel with him for three days before meeting the
tinkers (ch. 25) in the afternoon ('first thin sliver of a new moon' that evening) [don't
ask me how a minimum of six days from the last of the old moon to the first of the new
moon]. Several days with the tinkers and several more days travelling alone with Elyas.
Egwene and Perrin are captured on the night of a full moon (ch. 30, p. 443 'clouds hid the
full moon'). They are rescued (ch. 38) on the night of a slithered, waning moon) by
Moiraine, Lan, and Nynaeve. Lan comments that the have a 'few hard days' of travelling
before reaching Caemlyn.
For Rand, Mat, and Thom, there is first the river voyage towards
Whitebridge, which takes at least 10 days (Bayle Domon remarks after seeing the metal
tower that 'We be ten days from Whitebridge at the rate we go'). After Whitebridge the
boys are on their own. First night they sleep under bushes after that either sleeping
under bushes or at farmhouses for at least four days (ch. 31, p. 462, they are asked to
leave one farm, three days earlier they had been chased off, and we know the first day
they didn't work). After working at the Grinwell's the boys start playing the inns in the
evening (first night at Arien, next morning a ride in Eazeil Forney's cart). This lasts
for a few days at least also.
- Day A0
- Rand and Mat arrive at Four Kings. Approached by Howal Gode, darkfriend, at The
Dancing Cartman. Rand channels.
- Day A1
- Alpert Mull gives them a lift and two scarves. Stay at Rulan Allwine's inn in
Market Sheran.
- Day A2
- Meet Paitr, a darkfriend, at breakfast. Stay at The Queen's Man that evening (in
the barn since Rand has a reaction).
- Day A3
- Meet a female darkfriend in the morning. Hyam Kinch gives them a ride. Pass
through Carysford that evening and sleep in a haystack.
- Day A4
- walking. See a fade in the evening. Almen Bunt gives them a ride.
- Day A5
- Arrive at Caemlyn at dawn.
Rand and Mat spend at least three days in Caemlyn before the rest arrive.
Nynaeve, Moiraine, and Lan arrive in Whitebridge the day after Rand and Mat.
Moiraine senses that Perrin has lost and regain his coin after Whitebridge (ch. 37).
Conclusions: I guess that it takes slightly over a lunar month from the attack
at Shadar Logoth till the reunion in Caemlyn. This is mostly because of the moon which is
in its last quarter at Shadar Logoth and again last quarter when Perrin and Egwene are
rescued. A few days after the rescue the group is reunited (among other things Perrin
still has some of his bruises).
The rest of the book is dicey for other reasons. Time does not run the same
within the Ways as outside but assuming it does.
- Day B0
- Rand watches Logain paraded through Caemlyn. Meets Elayne. Reunion of the party
that evening.
- Day B1
- Enter the Ways at dawn.
- Day B2
- Late in the day the hear the Black Wind.
- Day B3
- Leave the Ways at dawn. Arrive at Fal Dara
- Day B4
- Leave Fal Dara for the Blight. Camp near the Seven Towers
- Day B5
- Find the Eye of the World. Victory at Tarwin's Gap.
- Day B6
- Leave the now destroyed Eye of the World.
- Day B7
- Arrive late afternoon back at Fal Dara.
- Day B14
- Last scene of the book.
The Great Hunt
This book starts about one month after the last book (Lan says in ch. 1 "A
month since you said you were going, and I thought you would be three weeks gone by
now."). The moon is probably waxing since the scene with Bayle Domon in chapter 9
(page 154) has a waxing moon. That scene also takes place in early summer a few days
before the feast of Teven (and the setting out of the Great Hunt). Chapter 5 (page 71),
also has a waxing moon when Bornhald leads his men across Tarabon. Bornhald must have made
great speed to get from Caemlyn (probably about the same time as Perrin did) to Amador to
Tarabon in about a month and a half. This assumes that the scenes with Bornhald and Domon
are at about the same time as the scenes in Fal Dara.
- Day -1
- Moiraine arrives back in Fal Dara.
- Day 0
- Rand fences with Lan. The Amyrlin Seat arrives at Fal Dara. Ingtar arrives back.
The horn and dagger are stolen and Fain escapes.
- Day 1
- Rand is told he is the Dragon. Ingtar leads the hunt to recover the horn; Rand,
Perrin, and Mat go with him. The Amyrlin leaves Fal Dara with Egwene and Nynaeve. Verin
gives the girls a lesson that night.
- Day 2, 3, 4, and 5
- Ingtar's party chases the Trollocs.
- Day 6
- Ingtar's party reaches the Erinn and cross it in the morning.
- Day 7
- Rand, Hurin, and Loial find themselves elsewhere. Rand has an encounter with
Ba'alzamon. Perrin becomes Ingtar's 'sniffer'. Verin joins Ingtar's party.
- Day 8
- Rand's party meets Selene and escape back to the world.
At this point time becomes a bit vague. The Amyrlin's party takes at least five
days (time enough for lessons by Verin, Alanna, Alviarin, and Liandrin; we don't know if
other Aes Sedai might have given lessons) to get to the Mora so assume they arrive Day 5.
They then discover that Moiraine has been gone two days and that Verin and Liandrin left
shortly afterwards. Verin must have made remarkably good speed (and know exactly where she
was going) to get from the Amyrlin's party (which was heading west) to Ingtar's party
(which was heading south-east) in four days.
We don't know how much time the Amyrlin's party took on the river voyage back
to Tar Valon. Nor for that matter how much time Rand's party spent in the mountains
waiting for Fain and/or Ingtar.
- Day A0
- Rand recovers the horn. The 'moon not far past full' (ch. 19, page 286).
- Day A1
- Rand's party camped
- Day A2
- Rand sees the giant statue. Selene leaves
- Day A3
- Rand arrives at Cairhien. Rand finds Thom. Fireworks 'accident'.
- Day A9
- A week passes (ch. 31, page 450). Fains steals horn back. Mat, Perrin, and
Ingtar arrive.
- Day A10
- Dinner at Barthanes, 'thin waning moon' (ch. 33, page 473). Barthanes and Dena
killed.
- Day A11
- Riots in Cairhien. Rand leaves for Stedding Tsofu.
- Day A12
- Rand arrives at Stedding Tsofu, uses Portal Stone. Arrives late Autumn and
according to Verin 'easily spent four months' (page 533, ch. 37).
I judge that Jordan is using a 7 day week in this book as a 10 day week as
described in Lord of Chaos's glossary does not make sense (for instance a 10 day week
would mean that 13 days passed between a moon just past full and a thin waning moon which
seems a bit long). Also Lan's statement that he expected Rand to be three weeks gone (i.e,
30 days if a 10 day week) after hearing him say a month ago (28 days) that he was leaving
does not make sense.
Egwene and Nynaeve arrive at Tar Valon and spend a few days as guests before
becoming Novice and Accepted officially.
- Day B0
- (ch. 38, page 536) Egwene and Nynaeve have spent 13 weeks in Tar Valon and it is
approaching Autumn (again a 10 day week doesn't make sense as 130 days from early summer
leads to mid autumn not early autumn). Liandrin talks to Egwene and Nynaeve.
- Day B1
- Liandrin leads Egwene, Nynaeve, Elayne, and Min into the Ways
- Day B3
- Liandrin betrays the girls to Suroth. Egwene and Min captured. Nynaeve and
Elayne escape.
The final days have to do with Egwene's rescue. Egwene has obviously been
captive for some time as it is now late autumn.
- ~Day C-6
- Rand and company arrive by Portal Stone.
- ~Day C-3
- three days later the party is two days from Falme.
- Day C0
- Nynaeve and Elayne meet up with Min and talk to Bayle Domon about escape. Perrin
is seen by Geofram Bornhald and Fain's trail finally found.
- Day C1
- Nynaeve frees Egwene. Rand and party recapture the horn. Battle at Falme
- Day C6
- Last scene of book. Rand five days east of Falme.
Summing up: The events of the book probably start about early June shortly
before the summer solstice (and over 2 and a half months since Bel Tine which seems to
indicate that Bel Tine is near the Spring Equinox). Several references are made to early
summer but Sunday (the summer solstice) has not yet happened. By mid or late June at the
latest Nynaeve and Egwene arrive at the tower and spend thirteen weeks there. This means
they follow Liandrin in mid to late September. Rand's party uses the portal stone in late
June, I would guess, and spend at least four months and arrive late Autumn which means
they arrive at Toman Head in late October or November. Almost certainly the book ends in
November.
The Dragon Reborn
(Many thanks for Steven Hillage for doing this)
The Dragon Reborn _Proposed_ Timeline (quotes from Tor pb):
Before the book starts: Eg, El, Ny (=3g), Verin, Mat, and Hurin on road
to TV with SL dagger & Horn of Valere. Rand and company leave Falme area "on
their way into the mountains during the autumn" p 35. Tam and Abell visit TV but
"left before the heavy snows" p 231. 13 BA (Liandrin and company) leave TV.
Morgase visits TV to find El has been gone for months, leaves Elaida behind and returns to
Caemlyn. Lord Gaebril (Rahvin) had arrived to quell riots roughly, becomes Morgase's new
Advisor/lover and Gareth Bryne 'retired' to farm. Lord Brend (Sammael) raised to Council
of Nine in Illian. Lord Samon (Be'lal) raised to High Lord of Tear. 'Mandarb' Bashere sees
Lord Orban (Hunter of the Horn) in Jehannah "during the winter" p 402 : she
probably took the Hunter's Oath in Illian at about this time (or earlier) and possibly
followed Orban to Ghealdan.
999 NE starts day after the Winter Solstice.
Prologue commences early in new year: "late winter cold...The name
made him feel the chills of winter" (p 14 Tor pb) and "'there was fighting until
winter chilled most of it ... The snow may have dampened it down, but come spring...'
" (p 15): thus about two or three months after the last book but before the start of
spring.

I'm having some problems with when Rand was discovered missing. Sulin has
served a month and a half or nearly four and a half weeks (42 days or 45 days), yet she
started acting as a servant on day 13 (40 days previous by straight incident counting). On
the other hand the first night Perrin is out from Cairhien has a waxing first quarter moon
while day 28 has a waxing 3/4 moon (hence about 21 days has passed between but 26 by
straight incident counting).
