... Caananites' living in fairly simple dwellings within enclosed compounds in an eastern suburb. They seem to have introduced long-haired sheep to the eastern delta which, with pairs of donkeys and goats, were often buried at entrances to burial vaults belonging to heads of households. At site F, near the river, a governor's residence had been built in Syrian style towards the end of the 12th Dynasty, later built over by a much more elaborate and substantial Egyptian-style palace. Caananite tombs associated with the governor's residence prove that some of these Asiatics reached a high status in the community. Attached to the largest – probably earliest – tomb in the governor's garden was the only mortuary chapel so far ...
112. The Sulman Temple In Jerusalem [Journals] [Kronos]
... course, may only be a temple." (S . A. Mercer: The Tell el-Amarna Tablets, Toronto, 1939, Vol. I, p. 274.) - -PJJ] The idea that the reference in EA 74 to Beth-Ninurta or Beth-Shulman is to some other place is based on the erroneous location of Sumur on the Syrian coast; in A in C it was shown that Sumur is Samaria, a short distance from Jerusalem. 6. See A in C, vi:"Jerusalem, Samaria, Jezreel". [The name of Jerusalem, however, is known from other records predating the Exodus - it occurs in the Egyptian "Execration Texts" ...
113. EBLA -- A New Look at History (Review) [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... the 16th century B.C . after which it was rebuilt as a small and no longer prominent town.36 The land of Bazi contributed three minor kings of Babylonia, one of which, Eulmash-shakin-shumi, was buried in Kar Marduk. While this Bazi is said to be located along the Tigris, there are also references to a North Syrian Bazi. Since Kar Marduk can find a specific location in Northern Syria, as opposed to a very general one along the Tigris in Babylonia, the former location for both Bazi and Kar Marduk are preferred in this evaluation. Accordingly, the kings of Bazi originated from Bazi in Northern Syria and at least one of them chose to be ...
114. The Legends of the Jews: Volume I - Preface [Books]
... the Synagogue were accepted and mothered by the Church. This is the literature usually denominated apocryphal-pseudepigraphic. From the point of view of legends, the apocryphal books are of subordinate importance, while the pseudepigrapha are of fundamental value. Even quantitatively the latter are an imposing mass. Besides the Greek writings of the Hellenist Jews, they contain Latin, Syrian, Ethiopic, Aramean, Arabic, Persian, and Old Slavic products translated directly or indirectly from Jewish works of Palestinian or Hellenistic origin. The use of these pseudepigrapha requires great caution. Nearly all of them are embellished with Christian interpolations, and in some cases the inserted portions have choked the original form so completely that it is impossible ...
115. Introduction to Ramessides, Medes and Persians [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... same period, we shall see, the renewed power of Egypt under Seti I and Ramses II sought to restore order in Syria/Palestine after the decades of neglect under Akhnaton and his immediate successors. This new Egyptian activity was greatly to the benefit of the much-oppressed kingdoms of Israel and Judah, who had suffered severely from the depredations of Syrians and Mbytes [moabites?] for almost two generations. Egypt's activities, however, now brought her into direct conflict with Lydia, whose kings had established a series of alliances with the petty rulers of Syria, particularly with the kings of Damascus. Thus Egypt now found herself united in common cause with the Medes, and the Median ...
116. A Reply to Mr. Cohen [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... 5 ] Mr. Cohen would do well to acquaint himself with the full impact of Velikovsky's solution with all its shortcomings before attempting to defend what amounts to a non-solution. The evidence is indeed in preponderance against Velikovsky's reconstruction. Perhaps Mr. Cohen would like to address himself to the specific problems of Thesis 189, the Hittite campaign and the Syrian kingdoms, which must inexplicably reincarnate the same ruling dynasties after conquest by the Assyrians during the interregnum caused by the time separation of dynasties XVIII and XIX. Mr. Cohen should look at the problems of Velikovsky's Hittite/Chaldean identification, which appears to require that kings solely resident at Babylon continued to keep their archives at Boghazköy long after ...
117. Catastrophe: An Investigation Into The Origins Of The Modern World (Book Review) [Journals] [Aeon]
... to tree ring samples from around the world. Historical archives are usually suspect, as many are frequently embellished with bizarre tales of wonders that cannot be quantified. However, when coupled with hard evidence, these wonders take on more verity. From Constantinople, the 6th century historiographer John of Ephesus (as quoted by the 12th century Michael the Syrian) wrote that the Sun became dark and shone dimly for eighteen months. The Roman historian Procopius commented on the lack of normal sunshine for a whole year. Zacharias of Mytilene iterated that both the Sun and Moon were bathed in dimness, as did John the Lydian in Anatolia and Cassiodorus Senator in Rome. These authors also wrote of ...

... has been built, the horizon has always been very carefully left open; there has always been a possibility of vision along the collimating axis prolonged. Lines of sphinxes have been broken to ensure this;[1 ] at Medînet-Habű, on the opposite side of the river to Karnak, we have outside this great temple a model of a Syrian fort. If we prolong the line of the temple from the middle of the Naos through the systems of pylons, we find that in the model of the fort an opening was left, so that the vision from the sanctuary of the temple was left absolutely free to command the horizon. file:///C |/ ...

... attributed to James Braid, a Scottish surgeon, in the 1840s. - LMG] 3. The word sanverim is probably not of Hebrew origin; there is no word in Hebrew that is built on the same root. [A Syriac commentary on Genesis interprets the word sanverim as "phantasies". Cf. Abraham Levene, The Early Syrian Fathers on Genesis (London, 1951), p. 92 - JNS; also see E. A. Speiser, Genesis (Anchor Bible, N. Y., 1964), pp. 139-140. Speiser states that sanverim is "a loanword based on Akkadian". - LMG] \cdrom\pubs\journals\ ...
120. Chapter 12 Pottery Dating and the Sumerians [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... Thus the historian's questions should be formulated not by some present theory but from the historical sources themselves."3 Just the opposite approach was applied to so-called Sumerian pottery. In order to tailor this pottery found in Sumer to the third millennium B.C ., historians are pretending that the pottery, which is clearly Mycenaean, Aegean and Syrian of the second millennium, was produced in Egypt in the third millennium, and then traded with Sumer, in spite of the fact that no such trade is known between these early societies. They are employing an "ideological [chronological] theory" in order to "tailor evidence so that it fits the so-called paradigm imposed from outside ...
