Daniel 7:1

In the first year of Belshazzar's reign [around 550 BC], Daniel had a dream and saw visions in his mind (in his head) while lying on his bed.
[Belshazzar was Nabonidus' eldest son. Nabonidus came to the throne in 556 BC and reigned until 539 BC. The Nabonidus Scroll mentions that they reigned together in Nabonidus' seventh year of reign, which is 549 BC. However, there are no records for years four, five, and half of the sixth year. Belshazzar's first year of reign is therefore somewhere between 553 and 550 BC. It is just over ten years since Nebuchadnezzar's death, see Dan. 5:1–2. Daniel is about 60-70 years old when he has this vision.]
He wrote down the main points of the dream.
