... equally eminent colleague, considered all of the enamelled decorative devices of Ramses' chamber to be of the same period - Ramesside. "That they are natural representatives of Ramesside work is shown . . . by the enamelled cartouches of Seti II from Khata'neh and elsewhere. A few very similar enamelled tiles from Nimrud [once the capital of the Assyrian empire] are of the ninth century B.C ., and it is not unlikely that this was an Asiatic art introduced by the conquerors of the New Kingdom. But are they imitations made for a Ptolemaic restoration? This seems to me very improbable, even when the king to be thus honoured was Rhampsinitus [Ramses III] ...

143. Cosmic Catastrophism [Journals] [Aeon]
... But, in the eighth century B.C ., Venus collided with Mars, knocking the red planet out of its long-established orbit. Mars approached earth a number of times (776, 747, 717 or 702, and 687 B.C .) , creating further catastrophes that supposedly destroyed Mycenaean citadels in Greece as well as the Assyrian army that was besieging Jerusalem. As a result of these contacts, both Mars and Earth settled into their present orbits. The earth's year- the time it takes to make one revolution around the sun- was lengthened from 360 days to approximately 3651/4 days. Meanwhile, Venus had already had its elliptical orbit modified to its ...
144. Answer to Jonsson [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... . Schlecker This is an answer to Carl Olof Jonsson's pre-publication response to my "Sennecherib & Esarhaddon" paper in C&AH vol. XIV, part 2 (July 1992), which deals with some of his expressed views. Let me first state that while I respect and admire Jonsson's work in putting together and discussing the sources for Assyrian and Babylonian chronology, I do not agree with all his views. I also do not agree with absolutes, or any scholar who informs us that something is impossible and absolutely fixed, when it comes to a discussion of ancient chronology. The terms generally agreed, and all scholars agree, do not always mean that a statement is ...
145. Pharaoh So and the Libyan Dynasty [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... genealogy. Recently (1980) some remarkable facts were added. My opinion about the beginning and end of the Libyan dynasty- and even about the identity of pharaoh So- understandably underwent quite some modification. It is a well known fact that Immanuel Velikovsky identified pharaoh So, with whom Hoshea, the king of Israel, conspired against the Assyrians ca 726,1 with a Sheshonq of the Libyan dynasty. The matter is treated in some length by Velikovsky himself in Kronos.2As to the question of which Sheshonq is meant, nothing can be found there. The bas-relief mentioned by Velikovsky3 is commonly attributed to the first Sheshonq, but in the Theses4we read: Pharaoh So who ...
146. A Further Response to Marvin Luckerman [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... century B.C . (to which some are dated already). There is no question of a gap of 500 years here. Many other 500-year anomalies are similarly removed, and I know of none which remain outstanding. Further articles in preparation for SIS Review will illustrate this. Mr. Luckerman's final remark, concerning the Egyptian and Assyrian criteria used in dating the Late Bronze and Iron Ages respectively, overlooks the fact that some important Assyrian criteria have themselves been wrongly dated. I have in mind especially the pottery known as Assyrian Palace Ware, which has been commonly dated to the late 8th century in Palestine and Syria, but which appears in contexts post-dating 612 B. ...
147. Eastern Anatolia and Velikovsky's Chronological Revisions I [Journals] [Kronos]
... after which it gradually broke up, surviving in some places (e .g ., the Van region) until as late as c.1500 B.C .( 9 ) (conventional chronology). Mitanni, itself, appears in the conventional chronology in c.1550 B.C . and was destroyed by a combination of Assyrian and "Hittite" pressure about 1365. The exact location of the Mitannians is not known for certain and their capital, Wassukani, has not been identified, but they are usually placed on the south central slopes of the Armenian Plateau just north of the Tigris between, say, modern Diyarbekir and Mosul. We really don't know. ...
148. The el-Amarna Letters (Concluded) (Ages in Chaos) [Velikovsky]
... of devastating raids on the Phoenician shore and on northern Syria. Placing the el-Amarna letters in the time of Jehoshaphat, king of Jerusalem, and Ahab, king of Samaria, and Shalmaneser, their contemporary, challenges me to demonstrate agreement not only between the letters and the Books of Kings and Chronicles, but also between the letters and the Assyrian inscriptions. In his annals Shalmaneser gave an account of his wars, the larger part of which were carried on in Syria. In a letter written by Abimilki, king of Tyre, and found in Tell el-Amarna, it is reported: "And fire has consumed Ugarit, the city of the king; half of it is consumed ...
149. Shishak, the kings of Judah and some synchronisms [Journals] [SIS Review]
... been slightly overstated, though this is unproven; one could plausibly strike out at least 10 years from the indicated lives of Joash and Elisha. In the event, I have placed E' fairly early in reign of Ahaz and D' an arbitrary 15 years earlier. Chavasse [11] claimed Tiglath-Pileser was known as Pulu' when commanding Assyrian army before he became supreme ruler; which could justify an even longer interval than 15 years between D' and E', helping clear up anomalies in II Kings narrative. Cutting Jotham's reign, or increasing his overlap with Uzziah, would also help. Uncertainty over the precise placings of D' and E' on the scale of ...

... of Darius is 502 BC, and the disaster referred to must slightly predate this, being no more than a year or so before 503/502 BC. James argues that the Sennacherib destruction level at Lachish is that of level IV, which does not show signs of burning but does come to an end. This is significant as the Assyrians were ever fond of indicating that they had burned a city. (4 ) James suggests that it is possible that this city was captured and turned over to the Philistines without destruction. Certainly Sennacherib describes just this reality in that he does turn over a number of Hezekiah's fortified cities to Mitinti, king of Ashdod; Padi, king ...
