... in Uruk are not just one among many, but that- observed also as one of the great projects of the Deutsche Orientgesellschaft- they play a key role in Near-Eastern archaeology. Kramer (1963 :28): In 1954, the German expedition returned to Erech under a new director, H. Lenzen, [who] is carrying ... a single unambiguously ascribable sherd has been found. The civilization of the Chaldeans, conscientiously described by the ancients and historically relatively young, is still a phantom as far as archaeologists are concerned. Instead, what was found in abundance in just this area were the cities of "Sumer," about 1200 years older. Some 100,000 ...
293. Were the "Sumerians of the Third Millennium" in Reality the Chaldeans of the First Millennium? [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... to determining their accuracy. How is it that the Sumerians are conventionally placed in the third millennium before our age? At least three lines of evidence support this placement: archaeology, writing (i .e . paleography), and historical texts. Archaeology At ancient Uruk (biblical Erech, present-day Warka) the following archaeological sequence has been ... (as indicated by the various scripts) an admittedly wide range of dates proves only that here we have museum relics or that someone had antiquarian interests. What will future archaeologists say about some professor's collection of tablets, or figurines and books that span 4000 years of history? I hope they will deduce that this professor was a collector and ...

... mysteries for many years. The book contains chapters on topics related to ancient civilisations, such as the Olmecs, sky temples, Norse relics, Chinese connections, riddles of archaeology, shamans, sacred landscapes and the effigy mounds. However, one of the biggest mysteries of all is the peopling of the Americas and this is the subject of ... has generally been supposed to have provided their access route into the Americas. If this model is correct, why are southern dates not younger than those in the north? Archaeologists are only now beginning to dig into layers lower than Clovis and new finds have brought a fresh perspective on human origins in the Americas. For example, at the ...
... Philistines is put some fifty years after the Exodus and a few years before the conquest of Canaan by Israel. 25: Cf. W. F.

However, Albright advocates the sojourn of ... group of scholars regard another moment as providing the clue for determining the time of the Exodus.

... by Cyrus. Whereas his son and co-ruler, Belshazzar, occupied himself with the administration of the land, Nabonidus indulged in an avocation: he showed a marked interest in archaeology, and excavated the foundations of ancient temples, looking for old inscriptions.(2a) In the foundations of a temple at Larsa, Nabonidus found a plaque of ... testifies to his attachment to the religious traditions of Sumer and Akkad. On account of his lengthy excavations in search of these written documents, Nabonidus has been nicknamed the royal archaeologist', though neither his aims nor his methods had anything to do with archaeology. Nevertheless, the king certainly shared with his subjects that passion for the study of ...

... and he was the father of their present King, Alcinous, who is in the prime of life. The excavations of Schliemann and Blegen at Hisarlik were valuable as ordinary archaeology; they contributed almost nothing to solve "the Homeric Questions." What we derive from their reports is an important negative: if either Schliemann's Troy or Blegen's Troys ... reluctantly to the third point of Isaacson. Gordion of Phrygia in the 8th century has walls that strikingly resemble the walls of Troy VI, which were devastated by earthquake. Archaeologists who are faithful to their conventions must bargain with an architectural similarity that flatly denies their 400 years' or more gap between Gordius and Troy. Isaacson's work was following ...

The subjective element in this process of interpretation is always present, and probably unavoidable. This is amply borne ...
