... From: SIS Review Vol 1 No 5 (Summer 1977) Home | Issue Contents A Further Note on the Archaeology of Jericho John J. Bimson Copyright (c )1977 J. J. Bimson DR BIMSON has recently completed a doctorate thesis for the Department of Biblical Studies at the University of Sheffield, dealing with Hebrew chronology with special reference to the dating of the Exodus. He has contributed earlier articles to the Review in this area. In an article dealing with the Israelite Conquest and the revised chronology (1 ), I discussed at some length the destruction of Jericho described in the Old Testament. I argued in detail, from archaeological finds, for an identification ...
32. Timna and Egyptian Dates [Journals] [Aeon]
... ) is due to unscholarly- pseudo-astronomical and Bible Fundamentalist- chronological constructs rather than to stratigraphic evidence . The same study suggested that the first stage of Egyptian High culture (Pre-and Early Dynastic, 3100 to 2890 BCE) was brought about by Asian invaders who did not enter the Nile Valley before the second third of the first millennium BCE. Archaeologically it can be shown that these Early Dynastic strata belonged to the same stratigraphic horizon as the Hyksos period in Egypt (c . 1675 to 1550 BCE), Israel, and Syro-Lebanon (so-called Middle Bronze Age), as well as that designated the Old-Akkadian in Mesopotamia (2350 to 2200 BCE, the so-called Early Bronze Age). ...
33. Cuban Prehistory [Journals] [Kronos]
... is shrouded in mystery. Unlike the great cosmological civilizations, of what the first Iberian conquerors and explorers called Tierra Firme, the Indian peoples of Cuba and adjacent islands of the Caribbean left no vast monumental ritual and urban centers, nor did they possess any system of inscriptions such as the Mayan glyphs that still tantalize scholars, ranging from classical archaeology to computational cryptology. Strangely, in view of the proximity of Cuba's westernmost extension to the Yucatan peninsula, there is not the slightest evidence of any contact between the Maya and the Cuban aborigines. Nor, are their traditions, legends, and myths available to us. As peoples, the Cuban aborigines ceased to exist within the first ...

35. Out of the Desert? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 1992 (Vol XIV) Home | Issue Contents Reviews: Out of the Desert? - an Analysis of Revisionist Theories a review by Geoffrey Gammon William H. Stiebing's 1989 book, Out of the Desert?, subtitled Archaeology and the Exodus/Conquest Narratives', is a scholarly and stimulating contribution to the continuing debate about the archaeological and historical contexts of the Exodus and the Israelite conquest of Canaan. In the Introduction the author claims, in relation to challenges to the orthodox interpretations and chronology, that no work has discussed this new evidence and critically evaluated the revisionist theories against the more traditional views. ' Moreover: "none has ...
36. Recent Developments in Near Eastern Archaeology [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: C&C Review 2004:3 (Incorporating C&C Workshop 2004:4 ) Home | Issue Home Recent Developments in Near Eastern Archaeology R. M. Porter Bietak's Review of Manning In the last issue I complained about the lack of progress in getting recognition of the conflict between scientific' dates and orthodox historical dates, thinking particularly of Thera with scientific' dates of 1645 or 1628 BC in the early Hyksos period and orthodox historical dates of c.1530 or 1450 BC in the early or mid 18th Dynasty. However, progress was better than I realised. Professor Bietak has written a strong attack on Sturt Manning's A Test of Time: The volcano ...

Held in a lecture theatre of Trent Polytechnic (Nottingham), under the title "Global Catastrophes: New Evidence from Astronomy, Biology and Archaeology", the aim was to present broad reviews of the recent and accumulating evidence for global catastrophism by specialists in those three disciplines. The result was a day of highly informative lectures and debates. One especially encouraging feature was ...
38. Forum Part Two [Journals] [SIS Review]
... the origin of metallurgy, the construction of the Egyptian pyramids, the destructions of the Bronze Age civilisations in the Near East and the Mediterranean, the collapse of the Roman Empire, the rise of Judaism and Islam, etc) should be associated with extra-terrestrial episodes of destruction [8 ]. All these new findings and developments of astronomical and archaeological research seem to verify Velikovsky's main idea: that the apparent destruction of the Bronze Age cultures, documented by various destruction layers around the world [9 ], and the rise of the sciences, ethical teachings, astronomy, monotheism and historical consciousness, which all followed the Age of destruction, were related to cosmic catastrophes. Yet, ...

Though this is educated guesswork, it is still guesswork. 3 ibid., pp. 138-139 4 ibid., p. 139 Charles Ginenthal, Pillars of the Past 247 Nevertheless, Professor Stiebing has invoked these king lists to criticize Velikovsky's historical revision of Bronze Age chronology in Mesopotamia, which he presented in the Biblical Archaeology Review (Dec. 1976), p. 43; this was reprinted in KRONOS, vol. VII, no. 3 (1982), pp. 72-74. Stiebing states: "According to Velikovsky's theories, both Asshur-uballit and Burnaburiash must be identified with the ninth century Assyrian king Shalmaneser III (c . 858-824 B.C ...
40. Geology And Archaeology. Ch.13 Collapsing Schemes (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... From "Earth in Upheaval" © 1955 by Immanuel Velikovsky | FULL TEXT NOT AVAILABLE Contents Geology And Archaeology MEASURED by anthropological and archaeological evidence, the age of many finds is recent; measured by the prevailing geological and paleontological schemes, the dates of the same finds are many times more remote. This conflict was very sharp in the case of the Vero and Melbourne, Florida, beds containing fossils and artifacts ' and it repeated itself in a great many places. A. S. Romer brought together a wealth of material to show the late survival of Pleistocene fauna and was widely quoted by archaeologists. A. L. Kroeber sees no easy way to avoid the conclusion ...
