... reconstruction, entitled The Pyramid Age (1999) dealt with events chronologically subsequent to those in The Genesis of Israel and Egypt. Here the reader saw that Egypt's Pyramid Age occurred after the catastrophic disturbances which marked the Israelite Exodus, an event which brought to an end the Early Dynastic epoch. In The Pyramid Age too we found that the Assyrian conquest of Egypt, which the Egyptians recalled as the invasion of the Hyksos, occurred early in the 8th century BC, and was accomplished by a king known to history as Sargon I, founder of the Akkadian (or Old Assyrian) Empire. Sargon (or Sharek, as the Egyptians remembered him) easily overthrew the Egyptian army ...
192. Discussion [Journals] [Aeon]
... Huwawa/Humbaba) with Ninib. As Morris Jastrow Jr. showed in his "Sun and Saturn," however- (see Revue D'Assyriologie et D'Archeologie Orientale [Sept. 1910], p. 172)- Ninib is more correctly identified as Saturn. Travelling through a different avenue, we find that scholars had long agreed that the Assyrian Humbaba (the same as Huwawa) is identical to the Iranian Kombabos. In Volume I of Die Phonizier- (Aalen, 1841-56/1967)- F.K . Movers very ably demonstrated that Kombabos was a personification of Saturn- (See pp. 154, 306-309, 686-689). This is an identification that should never ...
193. Recent Developments in Near Eastern Archaeology [Journals] [SIS Review]
... another potential derivation. The temple complex in which the stone inscription was found includes the temple itself, with a 15m long eight columned hall and store rooms along the sides, and a large courtyard surrounded by porticos. The temple is part of Strata IC-IB, dated by the authors to the 7th century BC and thought to include the later Assyrian occupation and a succeeding phase of Egyptian domination following Assyrian withdrawal in the late 7th century, and ending with total destruction by Nebuchadnezzar in 603 BC. On a reduced chronology this stratum might be dated to the Persian period, thus requiring the inscription to date from an earlier stratum than IC, which brings us to the all important question ...
194. Ancient Near Eastern Chronology: To Revise or not to Revise? [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... of divine appellative applied to the figure of the king, primarily as a means of providing flesh to the characterization of David and Solomon. Significantly, even the precise number of years they reigned has been substituted by the divine figure of 40 (previously mentioned). Joshua Van Seters compares the conquest narrative of Joshua to the way in which Assyrian annals dealt with similar military campaigns. These were heavily stereotype and tend to form a pattern, he says, in which especial attention is paid to a few major battles whilst summarizing the defeat of many other cities and regions. The annals may highlight at the outset of the campaign the overcoming of a special physical barrier such as a ...
195. Abraham to Hezekiah: An Archaeological Revision Part II [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... links the empire building of the early 18th dynasty rulers of Egypt with the destruction levels in Palestine at the end of the Middle Bronze Age.(53) While the conventional scheme may indeed lack conclusive proof, the alternative proposed by Bimson is even less likely. Bimson locates the Israelite conquest of Canaan at the end of MBII and the Assyrian conquest of Palestine at the end of LBII. This means that 700 years of Biblical history must somehow be packed into the Late Bronze Age which is only 300 years long, according to conventional chronology. This produces enormous problems that make Bimson's scheme highly unlikely. One of the most glaring problems is that Bimson does not know what to ...
196. New Theses for the Reconstruction of Ancient History based upon the Recurrent Cyclic Pertubations of the Earth prior to 648 B.C. [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... B.C .) . The following theses are by no means complete and are meant to provide only a skeleton on which the true flesh of history can be built without anachronisms, so-called "dark ages," and ad hoc explanations which permeate much of the presently accepted history. Warning. Following Rowton, the average reign lengths of Assyrian kings from Assur-Nirari I (c . 1550 B.C .) to Assuruballit II(606 B.C .) , based on 56 kings in 944 years, approximately, yields a figure of 16.857 years. A confirmation of this total is found in the average reign length of English kings and queens from 1066 A ...
197. Who Were the Neo-Assyrian Kings? [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... more than a few or even several coincidences of story and events, however compelling these may be. To identify one king with another, every piece of information which applies to one must, by definition, apply to the other, or else it must be clearly shown to apply to neither. Whatever the merits or demerits of lining up Assyrian and Persian rulers, the ones chosen make a chronological jump which seems to me to have serious consequences for the historical links with Israel, Judah and other neighbouring and even further off states. Perhaps Sweeney has considered these, in which case he will be able to answer the following questions: (a ) which Assyrian/Persian ruler ...
198. On the Foundations of the Assyro-Babylonian Chronology [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... doubt as to whether the chronicle mentions an eclipse. It is at least strange that this particular partial eclipse should be mentioned, and no full eclipse should be mentioned, thus the event may not have been an eclipse. If it was not, however, Carl Jonsson would apparently not be at all put out, because he thinks that Assyrian chronology would be just as sound if it had not been mentioned. Thus it is, according to him, only a nice additional bonus for helping to determine chronology, though he admits the more usual view is that this identification is of prime importance in establishing Assyrian chronology. It is true that Claudius Ptolemy assigned 14 regnal years to ...

200. Shoshenq and Shishak: A Case of Mistaken Identity [Journals] [SIS Review]
... anything more than superficial; I. e. are the names sufficiently close to confirm the identity of Shoshenq I and the Egyptian king of the biblical account? The vocalisation of the Egyptian hieroglyphs as Shoshenq (or Shoshenk) rather than the older rendering, Sheshonk, is based on the spelling of the name Shushinqu (or Susinqu) in Assyrian records from the 7th century BC. (The previously preferred rendering of the name Sheshonq was based on Manetho's Sesonch(os)is, which, as Kitchen remarks [18], probably shows metathesis, i.e . an interchange of the sounds of the first two syllables.) Shoshenq I's inscription on the Bubastite Portal at ...
