... Tiglath-Pileser III also received tribute from the king of Tyre, who is named Hiram. This same Tyrian king appears again in documents from the time of Cyrus the Great, supposedly two hundred years later. Seti I's Asiatic Wars During the reign of Akhnaton, Egypt's authority in Palestine and Syria collapsed, a situation reflected in the contents of the Amarna Letters. In his Ages in Chaos (1952) Velikovsky demonstrated how the inactivity of the pharaoh allowed Aziru, the scheming and treacherous king of Amurru (Syria), to wage destructive wars against his neighbours. Velikovsky identified this king of Syria with Hazael, who, during the time of Ahab, brought war and devastation repeatedly to ...
232. A Criticism of the Revised Chronology [Journals] [Pensee]
... native Canaanite ones were found associated with Late Bronze Age pottery types and Mycenaean wares (21). It is thus clear that the Egyptian Eighteenth Dynasty was not contemporaneous with the Iron Age in Palestine, the period of the Hebrew monarchy, but rather that it was much earlier. Hatshepsut could not have been a contemporary of Solomon, the Amarna Period did not correspond to the reigns of Jehosephat and Ahab (22), the palaces of Mycenae and Tiryns could not have been constructed in the eighth century, and the end of the Mycenaean Age as well as the destruction of Ugarit cannot be associated with catastrophes of the eighth - seventh centuries B.C . Archaeological evidence also ...
233. The Conquest of Canaan AND THE REVISED CHRONOLOGY [Journals] [SIS Review]
... roughly with the end of the Middle Kingdom and the rise of the Hyksos (the Hyksos period itself being contemporary with the time of the Judges). Secondly, we may note that archaeological evidence attests a long period after the destruction of MBA Jericho during which the site remained a desolate ruin. The next phase of occupation came with the Amarna period (44) (14th century BC on the conventional chronology). According to the Bible, Jericho remained desolate from the time when Joshua destroyed it until it was rebuilt during the reign of Ahab (I Kings 16:34). On Velikovsky's chronology, the Amarna period coincides with the reign of Ahab (9th century BC ...
234. Focus [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Late Bronze period. The evidence from Jericho was the most conclusive: as discussed by Dr Bimson in SISR I:3 and in a further paper in this issue, a flourishing MB II B/C city had its walls destroyed by earthquake at this time and was then deliberately burned to the ground, to be reoccupied only in the Amarna period - contemporary with Ahab, in whose reign, according to the first book of Kings, it was rebuilt. In Egypt itself there was evidence for an Israelite bondage under Dynasties XII and XIII, provided by lists of Asiatic slaves under Sobekhotpe III in the Papyrus Brooklyn. This indicated a very numerous Semitic population whose condition deteriorated late ...
235. The Fall of Imperial Egypt [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... no doubt that Ikhenaton was its founder, and that he named it after the Theban temple of his god .. . We have here the remarkable fact that this Nubian city of Ikhenaton survived and still bore the name he gave it nearly a thousand years after his death and the destruction of the new city of his god in Egypt (Amarna)."(17) We shall, as a later stage, see that the Aton-city established by Akhnaton in Syria, Hanaton, also survived into the same epoch, where we find it mentioned in the records of Tiglath-Pileser III. Strange then that these two cities carried, through the great period of time that supposedly elapsed between ...
236. Letters [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... boasting here and there. Does not that beautiful granite statue of the highest quality work in the Turin Museum and marked Ramesses II, look strangely like similar works of Thutmose III in the Cairo Museum? The controversial tombs of General Horemhab in the general turmoil at the end of the Assyrian Period might have been available for takeover despite a few Amarna art irregularities (G . Gammon, SIS Review 1978). There is a break between the 19th and 20th Dynasties because the 19th Dynasty work is still well ahead of low quality Ramesside standards - "the last assertions of independence". The exploration and study of Ramesses III building is a sad and tragic experience of a spent and ...
237. Chapter 9 Mesopotamian Stratigraphy [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... .cit., p. 6 278 VELIKOVSKIAN Vol. VI, Nos. 1, 2, 3 "[ C ]orrespondence partners of the Mitanni are well known in Egypt's New Kingdom. . . . Because of its highly peculiar pottery style (Nuzi Ware) and a wealth of written tablets listing its rulers also known from the Amarna correspondence [with Akhenaton in Egypt] there is little danger that archeologists . . . [will] not recognize a stratum of the Mitanni nation once they see it. Thus no other nation of antiquity is better suited for archeological cross-references than the Mitanni."14 Heinsohn goes on to discuss the various tells in which Mitanni and Akkadian ...

239. The Nature of the Historical Record [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Bocchoris. Part of the Table of Saqqara, compiled in the New Kingdom All the Egyptian king-lists of the New Kingdom are incomplete - some partially destroyed, like the Turin canon, while others, like the tables of Abydos and Saqqara, have deliberate omissions. The Ramesside table of Abydos omits the rulers of Dynasties XIII to XVII and the Amarna pharaohs. Moreover, none of these lists is later than the XIXth Dynasty. For Mesopotamia, we have the Sumerian king-list, several Babylonian king-lists and three versions of an Assyrian king-list. All provide valuable chronological information, although some are incomplete and others contradict each other. In many areas, the data are confirmed by contemporary documents, ...
240. Can There be a Revised Chronology Without a Revised Stratigraphy? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... . This follows from the firm link already discussed between the XVIIIth Dynasty and LB II strata in Palestine. If Velikovsky's dates for the XVIIIth Dynasty are correct, we would expect Israelite Samaria to be characterised by LB II pottery; in particular we would expect the city of Ahab's time to produce Mycenaean IIIa pottery, a chief characteristic of the Amarna period. But the Samaria levels mentioned above all contain Iron Age pottery. We are forced to the conclusion that if Velikovsky's placement of the XVIIIth Dynasty is correct, these levels do not represent the period when Samaria was the capital of Israel. Instead, they must date, like other Iron Age cities discussed previously, from the Assyrian ...
