... From: SIS Review Vol VI No 4 (1984) Home | Issue Contents FOCUS ARCHAEOLOGICAL ANOMALIES The Continuing Ica Mystery Contrary to prevailing opinion, the mystery of the curious engraved stones from Ica in Peru still remains unsolved. The Ica stones, an estimated 50,000 of which are now in the hands of private collectors, have been the subject of heated controversy since 1961 when the local villagers began to turn up stones with a distinctive, almost bizarre, style of carving. Some collectors took interest, buying them for very small amounts of money - and then two archaeologists, who, suspecting the authenticity of the stones, began exploratory excavations in nearby tombs. They ...
92. Meetings with Shulamit Kogan in Israel, March 2001. C&C Review 2002:1 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... a physics graduate, contributed some ideas to Velikovsky's early monograph Cosmos without Gravitation. Although now well into her 70s, she is highly active in the promotion of her father's work and had no hesitation in accompanying me on a long and fairly strenuous site visit to Tell Arad. There we met a friend of hers responsible for excavating this important archaeological site and he showed us round. She lives with her husband high in the mountains in central Israel, in a small village protected by strong wire fencing and heavy steel gates. From her modest bungalow on one side on a clear day she could see the Mediterranean, while from the other we could occasionally hear the sound of sporadic ...
93. Can There be a Revised Chronology Without a Revised Stratigraphy? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... "The 1978 Glasgow Conference Proceedings" Home | Issue Contents Can There be a Revised Chronology Without a Revised Stratigraphy?Dr John J. Bimson 1. The Problem Stated IN AN ARTICLE which appeared in Pensée in 1973, W. H. STIEBING claimed that "Velikovsky's revised synchronisms for ancient history cannot be reconciled with the stratigraphical evidence of archaeology" [1 ]. One of Stiebing's objections to Velikovsky's chronology relies on the supposed association of Hyksos objects with pottery of the Middle Bronze II period in Palestine. I have shown elsewhere that this association does not bear close scrutiny [2 ]. But Stiebing also raised another and more serious problem for the revised chronology, and it ...
94. Chapter 9 Mesopotamian Stratigraphy [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... Clark Whelton, maintains that "while no one would claim conventional history as we have it is completely secure or without difficulties, certain facts seem so well established as to approach certainty."2 He further argues "The relative chronology of the pivotal figures [from ancient history] can be constructed in great detail from COUNTLESS ANCIENT DOCUMENTS AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL SOURCES . . . What, then, are we to make of a historical reconstruction [Heinsohn's] which attempts to turn this intimately intertwined and precisely constructed chronology upside down and topsy-turvy?"3 [capitalization added] And dutifully Cochrane does cite "certain [documented] facts" from this "Interlocking Web of History"4 to ...
95. Hazor and the anachronisms in the chronology of the Ancient Near East [Journals] [SIS Review]
... John Garstang in 1926. After an interruption of nearly three decades, James A. de Rothschild resumed work between 1955 and 1958 under the guidance of Yigael Yadin. In 1968, Yigael Yadin returned to dig. For the time being - after the death of Aharon Kempinsky - Amnon Ben-Tor (Hebrew University, Jerusalem) is in charge of archaeological work in Hazor. Kempinsky was especially interested to find Iron Age archives from the time of the Kingdom of Israel in the upper city (1200 to 300 BC) whereas Ben-Tor seems to have given up such hope and focuses instead on finding archives for the Amarna (Late Bronze) period ( -15th/ -14th c.) ...
96. An Integrated Model for an Earthwide Event at 2300 BC. Part II: The Climatological Evidence [Journals] [SIS Review]
... he has now retired and is writing a book for publication in 1988. This article, and his previous (in SIS Review V:3 ), represent extended extracts of two chapters in the book. Introduction This article is the second in a series presenting evidence for a possible earthwide event at 2300 BC. The first article covering the archaeological evidence presented strong indications of site destructions widespread around the globe as well as migrations [1 ]. The climatological evidence in this article shows very distinct climatic changes at that time which could have been a major stimulus for the migrations. Furthermore, the climatic changes were most likely to have been brought about by a global temperature drop which ...
97. The Thirteenth Theory of the Hyksos [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... Mycenaeans (Dayton, 1978); and (12) Syro-Canaanites (Weinstein, 1981; Kempinski, 1985; Dever, 1985; Mazar, 1990). Only the twelfth theory, which equates the Hyksos with Palestinian princes or Syro-Canaanites in general, can still muster a considerable number of supporters. Syro-Palestine's Middle Bronze Age IIB-C shows a strong archaeological similarity with Hyksos sites in Egypt, e.g . Tell Daba. However, Mesopotamia proves to be another serious contender in this field. More importantly, the ancient Egyptians themselves did not identify the Hyksos with Canaanites. On the Amada Stela from the time of Amenophis II (1439 to 1413) the Hyksos and the princes of ...
98. Assyrians, Sodom, and Red Herrings [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... he did 150 years after the fall of the 18th dynasty, he was convinced that the Assyrian monarch must be Sennacherib. On my reconstruction Shalmaneser III is clearly suggested. Sodom in the Plain After bouquets for Dirkzwager, brickbats for Dwardu Cardona. As readers, of my articles will, I hope, recall, I agree with the outline archaeological reconstruction of Donovan Courville, followed by Stan Vaninger and Tom Chetwynd, that the Exodus occurred at the end of the Early Bronze Age, that the great material wealth of the so-called Hyksos Empire of Canaan at the climax of the Middle Bronze was the United Kingdom of David and Solomon, which stretched- as the Bible claims- from ...
99. The Bible Unearthed by Israel Finkelstein & Neil Asher Silberman (Book review) [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Phillip Clapham Written by a leading archaeologist and a historian of note, this book is an up-to-the-minute window on Iron Age stratigraphy. Finkelstein is often quoted by Bob Porter and, to get a proper perspective of Finkelstein's radical redating, it is useful to have some of Bob's articles at hand (e .g . Recent Developments in Near Eastern Archaeology', C&CR 2002:1 , p. 14 and The Iron Age and the New Chronology' in JACF:8 , p. 66) and also Peter James's Centuries of Darkness . Likewise, David Rohl's Biblical Archaeology' in JACF:8 , p. 7, which is a good overview of the New Chronology ...
100. Recent Developments in Near Eastern Archaeology [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 1999:1 (Jul 1999) Home | Issue Contents Recent Developments in Near Eastern Archaeology R.M . Porter Centuries Of Darkness Update After the publication of Centuries of Darkness by James et al in 1991, with its proposal for shortening ancient history by two and a half centuries (reviewed in C&CR XV 1993 pp. 36-7), there were debates in the Cambridge Archaeological Journal and Times Literary Supplement and a flurry of reviews (see C&CR XV 1993, pp. 38-9). In 1995, Peter James (main author of Centuries) delivered a paper to a colloquium at Tufts University, Massachusetts. The ...
