... cited as evidence do seem to hint at a series of cosmic disturbances during the 8th and 7th centuries B.C . In-depth investigation, however, has not revealed the celestial culprit as having been the planet Mars. As Velikovsky himself admitted: [This] was the time of the Hebrew prophets whose books are preserved in writing, of Assyrian kings whose annals are excavated and deciphered, and of Egyptian pharaohs of the Libyan and Ethiopian dynasties; in short, the catastrophes .. . did not take place in a mist-shrouded past: the period is part of the well authenticated history of the lands of the eastern Mediterranean. The eighth century also saw the beginning of the nations ...
292. Ankylosis in the Chronology of Reconstructed History? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Review Vol V No 4 (1984) Home | Issue Contents Ankylosis in the Chronology of Reconstructed History?- A letter from by Christoph Marx During a course on "Elements of Assyrian and Babylonian Chronology" [1 ], I took the opportunity to look at the fact that most of the chronologies around the Mars catastrophes have been linked to the date of 15th. June, -763, the day of a solar eclipse mentioned in the Eponym Lists [2 }) . These again have been linked to Greek and Roman chronology by way of the Ptolemaic Canon of Babylonian kings, "the correctness of which is proved by the lunar eclipses mentioned in the ...
293. Reassessing the Date of the Arabah Copper Mines [Articles]
... it.- The second level from the surface, which Glueck called level IV because he was numbering them from the bottom, was the most important in establishing a chronology for this site, Tell el Kheleifeh, since it contained pottery bearing datable Edomite and Minean inscriptions, and also many items of pottery which in Glueck's words "evidenced strong Assyrian influence and indeed are hardly distinguishable, if at all, from Assyrian parallels of the same period, both the shape and hard metallic ware of many of them are in clear imitation of contemporary 7th - 6th century BC Assyrian metal and pottery vessels". So on this basis, level IV appears to date from the 7th-6th century BC ...
294. Shishak - Ramesses II or Ramesses III? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... try to reduce them. The final solution will appear very tight - there will be no unaccounted years. Assyria seems to be one of the few areas where it is actually difficult to remove two and a half centuries or more. Given that the Assuruballit of the Amarna Letters (conventionally c.1350 BC) was Assuruballit I of the Assyrian King List, then there are a great number of kings to be fitted in between then and the well attested Neo-Assyrian period beginning c.900 BC. However, the Assyrian king lists are probably Neo-Assyrian compilations with little more reliability than Manetho has for Egypt: there is scope to argue for parallel dynasties and local rulers (e . ...
295. Chapter 5 Pottery Dating, Faience, and Tin [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... to 600 B.C ., i.e . to the first millennium B.C . and not to the third. In a letter of reply to Stiebing's criticism of Velikovsky's shortened chronology, John Bimson and Peter James pointed out that pottery dating in Palestine does not support the established chronology: "As Stiebing states, finds of Assyrian objects in Palestinian strata are used to date the Iron Age, phase II . . . Yet . . . it is clear that the [pottery] dates assigned to the Iron Age phases are much too high. ". . . Assyrian Palace Ware' from Samaria and Tell el-Far'ah North is currently dated to c. 720 B ...
296. Ages Still In Chaos: Defending The Indefensible [Journals] [SIS Review]
... SIS C & C Review 2003 (Nov 2003) Conference Proceedings Ages Still in Chaos' Home | Issue Contents Ages Still In Chaos: Defending The Indefensible J. Eric Aitchison Eric Aitchison is a long-standing Australian SIS contributor and member. His interest in Velikovsky began in 1967. He is now working on his theory that the Habiru were the Assyrians under Tiglath Pileser III and Sargon II. Mainstream scholars appear to be ignoring the revisionist debate because believe their chronology is without serious fault: some fine-tuning might be necessary here and there but basically it is sound. Rarely do we see any reaction to a challenging paper from C&CR or JACF. At this Conference we are justified ...
297. An Eighth-Century Date for Merenptah [Journals] [SIS Review]
... had not (and could not have) accomplished. Who, then, carried out this onslaught, if not Merenptah? The stele and the conquests of Tiglath-pileser III If, as Gammon suggests, Merenptah began his reign in 738 BC, his 5th year, when he defeated the Libyans, would be 734-3 BC. In 734, the Assyrian king Tiglath-pileser III moved into the West to campaign in the Palestinian coastal plain. His armies moved south through Phoenicia and into Philistia, where Gaza was captured and sacked. The southward march continued as far as "the city of the Brook of Egypt", i.e . el-Arish, where Tiglath-pileser "set up a stele to ...
298. Humbaba [Journals] [Kronos]
... From: Kronos Vol. IX No. 2 (Winter 1984) Home | Issue Contents Humbaba Dwardu Cardona Copyright 1984 by Dwardu Cardona Humbaba, as he is called in the Assyrian version of the Sha Naqba Imuru, commonly referred to as the Epic of Gilgamesh, is the giant whom the hero of that epic and his friend Enkidu set out to destroy. In the Old Babylonian and Hittite versions, this giant is called Huwawa. He is described as "a sevenfold terror to mortals" with the roaring of a flood-storm. "His mouth is fire, his breath is death."(l ) More than being a giant, Stephen Langdon informs us that Huwawa ...
299. Applying the Revised Chronology [Journals] [Pensee]
... series began, is the subject matter of the two items. Extraordinary conservatism was attributed to the Phoenicians, since the later group faithfully reproduced similar scenes and arrangement of the decoration (172), after a lapse of 500 years. The chariot scene on the 14th-century gold plate is compared to similar scenes of the 9th-century Neo-Hittites and of the Assyrian King Assurnasirpal II (883-859 B.C .) (173). The elongated gallop of the horse is seen to be quite similar to depictions on Assyrian reliefs, but Assyrian influence "is chronologically impossible, all the Assyrian monuments presently known where horses are depicted at gallop being about half a millennium later than our plate" ( ...
300. The el-Amarna Letters (Ages in Chaos) [Velikovsky]
... letters should not be accepted merely because it fits into a scheme built on other evidences of preceding or following periods. It should be demonstrated with respect to the letters themselves. Besides the Scriptures and the el-Amarna tablets, two other sources relate to the time of King Jehoshaphat: the stele of King Mesha of Moab and the inscriptions of the Assyrian king, Shalmaneser III. These relics, too, and not the Bible alone, must correspond to the contents of the el-Amarna letters, if it is true that Egyptian history must be revised and moved forward more than half a thousand years. 1. The translations into German are by Hugo Winckler and by J. A. Knudtzon ...
