From: The Velikovskian Vol 3 No 1 (1997) Home | Issue Contents Cyrus The Mardian/amardian Dethroner Of The -6th Century Medes And Aziru The Martu/amurru (Amorite) Dethroner Of The -14th Century Mitanni Gunnar Heinsohn 1. The Restoration of Assyrian History in the Median and Achaemenid Periods In 1987, ancient Greek historiography and modern archaeological stratigraphy compelled me to bring down the conventional date of the Amarna Period ( -14th century), to the late -7th century. Thereby, the -14th century termination of the Mitannian Empire, witnessed in the Amarna correspondence, had to be equated with the end of the Median Empire of the -7th/ -6th centuries. In actual ...
52. A Concluding Retort [Journals] [Pensee]
... From: Pensée Vol. 4 No 5: (Winter 1974-75) "Immanuel Velikovsky Reconsidered X" Home | Issue Contents A Concluding Retort Immanuel Velikovsky Dr. Stiebing (Pensee, Fall, 1973) raised the evidence of stratigraphic archaeology as an argument against my reconstruction of ancient history. In my "Reply to Stiebing" (Pensee, Winter, 1973-74) I made it clear that the finds of stratigraphic archaeology gain meaning only if at some points there are links with historically datable sources, like monuments or other literary relics. The dating of these depends again on chronology of recorded history- in the case of the Hebrews, the chronology as contained in the books of the ...
53. EARLY GLASSMAKING AND CHRONOLOGICAL PUZZLES [Journals] [Aeon]
... Gesellschaft/Frankfurt/M .) , Frau Herrmann (Library of the Museum für Kunst und Gewerbe/ Hamburg), and Herrn Zamia (Library of the Schott Glaswerke/Mainz am Rhein). The information available now on early Mesopotamian glass, while considerably greater than before, is still incomplete and full of gaps. The philological and archaeological evidence are both related but do no show a parallel development, nor do they share the same history. The glass objects do not illustrate' the history of this particular class of cuneiform literature and the texts are useless in helping us trace the typological history of early Mesopotamian glass vessels. Yet both belong to the history of glassmaking in ...
54. Out of the Desert: Archaeology and the Exodus/Conquest Narratives (Review) [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... From: Catastrophism and Ancient History XII:1 (Jan 1990) Home | Issue Contents BOOK REVIEW Out of the Desert: Archaeology and the Exodus/Conquest Narratives (Review)By William H. Stiebing, Jr. Reviewed by Herbert A. Storck Out of the Desert (Buffalo: Prometheus Books, 1989) is an epoch-making book for two reasons: It is one of the first popular treatments of the archaeology of the Exodus and Conquest narratives; moreover, it also acknowledges amateur attempts to understand and solve the problems associated with the events involved. It becomes, thereby, one of the first popular works written by an academic that attempts to establish a dialogue with ...
55. Problems for Rohl's New Chronology [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... Amphitryon and inscribed in Cadmean letters. The problem, of course, is that Amphitryon lived two or three generations before the Trojan War. 2. Epic tradition tells us that Palamedes, who fought at Troy, added the letters x', ph' and ch' to the Cadmean alphabet. Yet these new letters cannot, according to archaeology, have been introduced before the latter 8th century BC. Bronze and Iron Ages: 1. If the Iron Age begins in the 10th century, as David Rohl claims, how is it that Homer, in the 7th century, had never heard of iron swords? His weapons are entirely of bronze, though iron is used for ...
56. Five Midianite Cities: A Response to Dwardu Cardona's "The Cities of the Plain" [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... overwhelming, these three lines of evidence make Cardona's position a possibility that should be explored. Next, I would like to consider the weaknesses of the synchronism. My main criticism focuses on the fact that it is an isolated synchronism unsupported by any others. Many events in the annals of ancient history could have produced widespread destruction levels in the archaeological record. And several points in the sequence of archaeological ages show that widespread destruction has obviously occurred. The problem is to properly synchronize the two records. Mr. Cardona has made no attempt to do this. His approach in focusing on only one event and his failure to produce sufficient evidence to establish a firm synchronism therefore, in ...
57. In Memoriam: Dr Claude Schaeffer-Forrer, 1898-1982: An Appreciation [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Review Vol V No 3 (1980/81) Home | Issue Contents Focus In Memoriam: Dr Claude Schaeffer-Forrer, 1898-1982: An Appreciation The world of archaeology lost one of its greatest figures in October 1982 with the death of Dr Claude Schaeffer-Forrer at the age of 84. He was one of the last members of what The Times described in its obituary as "the dwindling band of excavators belonging to the Heroic Age of Near Eastern Archaeology between the two world wars". Claude Frédéric Antoine Schaeffer was born at Strasbourg in March 1898. Strasbourg was then part of the province of Alsace, which had been annexed from France in 1871 by the newly created ...

59. The Conquest of Canaan AND THE REVISED CHRONOLOGY [Journals] [SIS Review]
... of Canaan by those tribes, in the 15th century BC. Velikovsky is, of course, not alone in so dating these events. They are similarly dated by all writers who take seriously the Old Testament's own hints on the matter (I Kings 6:1 ; Judges 11:26). But within the current framework for the archaeology of Palestine, no archaeological evidence is forthcoming which would support such a date for the Conquest. None of the cities which the Old Testament says were destroyed by Joshua fell during the 15th century BC. Some decades ago, J. Garstang claimed to have unearthed such evidence at Jericho and Hazor; but the more recent work of Kathleen ...
60. Bookshelf [Journals] [SIS Review]
... & Kegan Paul, 1977; THE SEA PEOPLES AND EGYPT by A. Nibbi Princeton: Noyes Press, 1975. PETER JAMES The idea that a mass migration of barbarians from the Aegean was responsible for the destruction of the Late Bronze civilisations of the eastern Mediterranean c.1200 BC is probably one of the most treasured concepts of Near Eastern archaeology. The linking of this invasion of "Sea Peoples" with the arrival of the Philistines of the Old Testament is a major lynch-pin of the conventional chronology for the transitional phase from the Late Bronze to Early Iron Age in Palestine. Assuming that the P-r-s-t of Ramesses III's records are the Philistines, scholars have dated the arrival of the ...
