72. Recent Developments in Near Eastern Archaeology [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 2001:1 (Apr 2001) Home | Issue Contents Recent Developments in Near Eastern Archaeology R. M. Porter A number of interesting finds have been reported in the press such as the world's oldest city in Syria, carbon dated to c. 6000 BC, and a submerged village on an early shoreline of the Black Sea c. 5000 BC. The few items reported below, although less exciting, are mainly relevant to Late Bronze and Iron Age chronology. Carbon Dating and the Aegean Another leading Aegean scholar has criticised the effects of carbon dating on Aegean chronology. Sinclair Hood writing in Aegaeum 20 (1999, pp. 381-6 ...
73. The Israelite Conquest of Canaan [Journals] [Aeon]
... From: Aeon I:4 (Jul 1988) Home | Issue Contents The Israelite Conquest of Canaan Gunnar Heinsohn Abstract: Archaeological sites in the land of Israel, exhibiting some of the finest stratigraphies in the world, were expected to yield four major groups of strata following the Chalcolithic and prior to the Hellenistic Age: for the period of (i ) the Canaanites, (ii) the Israelites, (iii) the Assyrians, and (iv) the Persians. Surprisingly, though, all these four periods are either lacking in unambiguous layers or strata assigned to them, or are too few to cover the centuries over which these eras are believed to have lasted. ...
74. Radiocarbon Dating: An Archaeological Perspective [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... From: SIS Chronology and Catastrophism Workshop 1992 No 1 (Aug 1992) Home | Issue Contents REVIEWS Radiocarbon Dating: An Archaeological Perspective by R. E. Taylor, (London: Academic Press, 1987) Anyone concerned with ancient history and chronologies cannot ignore radiocarbon dating results. Unfortunately, the technical nature of the subject causes misunderstanding among scholars and archaeologists about how radiocarbon dating is accomplished and the meaning and limitations of radiocarbon measurements. Indeed, as was recently observed by Bowman and Balaam in Antiquity 64 (1990), pp. 315-318: The way in which radiocarbon results are used varies tremendously. There is a lamentable tendency to ignore or play down the importance of ...
75. Letters [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... out the possibility (not mentioned by Clark) that the apparent differences between Persians and Assyrians in relief sculptures are simply a consequence of different artistic styles in different regions. However, the fact that the sculptures were placed within royal palaces rather than in public places makes this seem unlikely. Clark also criticised me for saying there was abundant' archaeological evidence of the Persians in Babylon, and Emmet (C &CW 2004:4 , pp. 34-35) repeated the same criticism. My actual statement in Test of Beards' was that there is abundant historical and archaeological evidence of a Persian occupation' in Babylon, and the context was a comparison with Assyria. In relative terms ...
76. Conquest of Canaan, and, Hyksos and the Archaeology of Palestine [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... From: Catastrophism and Ancient History I:1 (1978) Home | Issue Contents Interaction Conquest of Canaan, and, Hyksos and the Archaeology of Palestine In Volume II, Number Three of the S.I .S . REVIEW, Dr. John Bimson wrote two articles (" A Chart for the Conquest of Canaan" and "The Hyksos and the Archaeology of Palestine"). I believe a reaction to these articles would be an auspicious beginning for "Interaction". Dr. Bimson realizes that the conventional archaeologist has a great deal of problems with the excavations of Jericho. The Bible tells of the dramatic destruction of this city; this was, of course ...

78. Megalithic Astronomy and Catastrophism [Journals] [Pensee]
... remarkable phenomenon of the relatively sudden appearance of standing stone sites- many of them clearly astronomical in function- as a well-defined episode in British pre-history could be neatly explained as the reaction to a natural disturbance in the celestial order. . . ." PART 1. MEGALITHIC ASTRONOMY- FACT AND THEORY Introduction In comparing Velikovsky's catastrophic hypotheses with the detailed historical and archaeological evidence from the numerous fields affected by them, it is necessary to select problems for study which are of crucial importance for the rival theories. One of these problems is that of the nature of post-glacial environmental changes-which I recently discussed briefly (1 ) --and another embraces the relics of prehistoric astronomical activity found in Britain, on which much ...
