... From "Ramses II and his Time" © 1978 by Immanuel Velikovsky | FULL TEXT NOT AVAILABLE Contents Chapter 1 The Battle Of Kadesh-carchemish Who Was Pharaoh Necho, the Adversary of Nebuchadnezzar? The Assyrian Empire tottered and fell. Despite the aid of Egypt, the Babylonians and the Medes captured Nineveh and burned it. In the ensuing years they were busy dividing Assyria. In-608 the king of Egypt moved toward the Euphrates (II Kings 23:29), marching with his troops on the military road that ran along the coast. When he came to Megiddo Pass he found his way obstructed by Josiah, the king of Jerusalem. The king of Egypt sent emissaries ...
242. An Answer to "The Danunians and the Velikovsky Revision" [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... you give weapons to your eventual detractors who will not fail to observe that in- 725, a time which precedes the annexation of Cilicia by Sargon II (- 722 -- 705), it is possible and logical that after the death of Tiglath-Pileser III in- 727 Asitawandas could have enjoyed some autonomy and could have thought of the Assyrians as allies, not as chief of a people who underwent his yoke and had no local sovereign. That is perhaps the renewal of independence which persuaded Sargon II (- 722 -- 705) to annex Cilicia without further formality. In any case, this date of- 725 fits perfectly during one period where, between Tiglath-Pileser and ...
243. Tiglath-Pilesers I and III Not to be Confused [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... and not the third Tiglatpileser," deserves an answer. A check of the Annals of the Tiglath-pileser who mentions Ini-Teshub and the Mushki indicates that he was the "son of Ashur-resha-ishi, grandson of Mutakkil-Nusku, legitimate heir of Ashur-dan, offspring of Ninurta-apli-ekur." Clearly Tiglath-pileser I. However, although Dirkzwager noted that he knew "the older Assyrian kings like Tiglatpileser I are clearly different from the more recent ones," this has been misunderstood and taken as tentative support (letter from Martin Sieff, C&AH, X:1 , 40) for an idea by Emmet Sweeny that "Tiglath-pileser I' was a ghost' of Tiglath-pileser III." While the ancestry of ...
244. Ancient History Revisions: the Last 25 years - a Perspective [Journals] [SIS Review]
... the leading academics of this period. Around the turn of the century, A. S. Murray, Keeper of Greek and Roman Antiquities at the British Museum, excavated a sealed tomb of Mycenaean age at Enkomi on Cyprus and published details of some of the ivory carvings it contained. These showed such a striking resemblance to later Greek and Assyrian work that he unhesitatingly assigned the tomb and all its contents to the 9th-7th century. His conclusions were based on a long study of a uniquely extensive range of Mediterranean and Mesopotamian sculpture, pottery and other artefacts and this gave him no reason whatsoever to believe in a Greek Dark Age. For this disbelief he was blasted as a heretic ...
245. Discussion Questions From the Floor [Journals] [Aeon]
... the Ages in Chaos tapestry, which lacks a systematic look at Mesopotamia. Even taking account of everything Velikovsky and others have said about Mesopotamia, my own exploratory reading never could make any sense of the Revision when applied to the area. In fact, unless someone else knows better, I would conjecture that Velikovsky never tried to publish The Assyrian Conquest because he could not, in his own mind, make his reconstruction work satisfactorily when applied to Assyria/Babylon. For example, in the final issue of KRONOS the doctor's article on Assuruballit seemed very tentative and had no meaningful point to make. The contrast with Gunnar Heinsohn's ringing affirmatives is obvious. I certainly hope that we'll ...
246. Chapter 15 Dark Ages Based on Dark Scholarship [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... ." So far so good. But the pottery, porcelain, gems, glass, ivory, bronze, and gold found in the tombs all presented one and the same difficulty. From the Egyptological point of view many objects belong to the time of Amenhotep III and Akhnaton, supposedly of the 15th to the 14th centuries. From the Assyrian, Phoenician, and Greek viewpoint the same objects belong to the period of the ninth to the eighth or seventh centuries. Since the objects are representative of Mycenaean culture, the excavator questioned the true time of the Mycenaean Age. But as the Mycenaean Age is linked to the Egyptian chronology he found himself at an impasse. We shall ...
247. The Case for Retaining a Dark Age at the end of the Late Bronze Age. C&C Review 2002:1 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... reference is made to peace and tranquillity in the natural world. The implication is that, a few years previously, the situation was not so, i.e . in the late reign of his father, Ramesses II. Ramesses II was perhaps the most glorious of all the pharaohs. Gargantuan statuary turned up in the titularies of Middle Assyrian kings such as Tiglath Pileser I and Ashur bel Kala. This had been obtained during forays into Syria, dating them after Dynasty 19. Some of the material came into their possession during wars with Aramean tribesmen who, in turn, had looted the cities of Syria-Palestine after the end of Dynasty 19 and the collapse of Egyptian control over ...

... , not on a gently sloping hillside with a straight shoreline (the situation at the recent excavation sites). Such a site may have existed on the headland to the south of the recent excavations near the site of the Tophet' where child sacrifices were found. The recent excavations would represent a later expansion of the original town. Middle Assyrians at Giricano Giricano is a minor mound in the Upper Tigris region of southeast Turkey, situated a few kilometres across the river from the much larger site of Ziyaret Tepe, ancient Tushan, and about 50 km east of modern Diyarbakir (which should be visible in an atlas). The area was often controlled by the Assyrians but was ...

... of the way, and defiled your beauty and exposed yourself to every one that passed by, and multiplied your fornications. You have also played the harlot with the Egyptians your neighbors, who have large male organs, and you have multiplied your fornications, to provoke me to anger...You have played the whore also with the Assyrians, and yet you were not satisfied. You have moreover multiplied your fornications in the land of Canaan and in Chaldea; and yet, even with them you were not satisfied. How shall I judge you, O daughter, says the Lord God, seeing that you did all these things, the works of a whore and a ...
250. Discussion on Velikovsky, Victor Clube's book [Articles]
... no later than the 7th century. There is evidence, for example, from Spain of pottery with the scarabs of two or three XXIInd Dynasty Pharaohs, which is in architecture that has been dated on stylistic grounds to no later than about the first quarter of the 7th century, and among the loot that was found in one of the Assyrian palaces you find a monument or something which is marked with one of the Takelots, one of the kings of the XXIInd Dynasty which was quite clearly looted from Sidon by Esarhaddon, King of Assyria, so we know that this then dates no later than 677 BC. So this meant either that we would have to accept that the ...
