Yes, according to tradition. This may have secular support from the ancient king-lists of India, Sumeria, and Ashurbanipal, which give very high lifespans for the earliest kings. Similarly, Josephus wrote 2000 years ago: "all those that have written Antiquities, both among the Greeks and barbarians relate that the ancients lived a thousand years: Manetho, who wrote the Egyptian History; and Berosus, who collected the Chaldean inscriptions; and Mochus, and Hestieus; and, besides these, Hieronymus the Egyptian, and those who composed the Phoenician History, agree to what I have said; Hesiod also, and Hecatseus, Hellanicus, and Acusilaus; and besides these, Ephorus and Nicolaus."
