132. Ages in Chaos versus the 'New Chronologies' of Rohl and James [Journals] [SIS Review]
... . Even the borders of Judah were in danger of being overcome by Aram Damascus and the search for pasturage. In the early 8th century a revived Assyria under Adad Nerari defeated Damascus and the respite was permanent. The kingdom of Israel revived. This seems to suggest there was also a climatic upturn that caused the tribesmen to remain on the Syrian steppe. In other words, rainfall levels increased, providing pasturage in more traditional places such as the mid-Euphrates valley and the Transjordan zone. The Assyrian campaign was one part of the jigsaw but not the whole. Precipitation levels determined semi-nomadic depredations. Hence, the period beginning with Joash and Jeroboam II was climatically more favourable than the late ...
133. From the End of the Eighteenth Dynasty to the Time of Ramses II [Journals] [Kronos]
... Kurt Sethe, "Zu den Sachmet Statuen Amenophis' III," Zeitschrift für Ägyptische Sprache und Altertumskunde," 58 (1923), pp. 43-44. THE HOUSE OF OMRI In Palestine, the house of Judah and the house of Israel went through a series of revolutions. These kindred nations waged wars with each other and against the Syrians. Under Jehu and his son Jehoahaz, Israel was oppressed by Hazael of Damascus, one of the el-Amarna correspondents, and his son Ben-Hadad. Relief came only in the days of Joash, grandson of Jehu. The Second Book of Kings gives this vivid picture: "Now Elisha was fallen sick of his sickness whereof he died. ...

... on the Armenian Plateau whence they spread to Anatolia, north Syria and central Mesopotamia. The earliest record of them is found in the appearance of certain Hurrian personal names in Akkadian tablets conventionally dated to the last half of the third millennium. In the early second millennium they are attested in Babylonia, in the Kingdom of Mari and at various Syrian centers,particularly Alalak and Ras Shamra. Subsequent migrations are supposed to have deposited them in large numbers throughout much of western Asia from Nuzi in the northeast, to Palestine in the south, while Hurrian glosses and texts are encountered as far west as Hattusas, where even some Hittite queens appear to have been of the Hurrian nation. ...
... of the seas'. The name "Beale" appears to be derived from Baal or Bel. But is there a Tyre still existing in Palestine? Here is what Dunckel says about it: "Scarcely any striking remains of the ancient buildings of Phoehave come down to our time. The ancient temples enumerated in the treatise, on the Syrian goddess have perished without a trace; the temple of Mea of Tyre, the great temple of Astarte at Sidon, the temple of Bel Ashera at Byblus, although they were certainly not of a character easy to destroy.6 Another writer on Tyre in Palestine says this: "Anciently there were two harbours formed by the island and ...
136. Untitled [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... - placed his capital so far to the north, well out of Israelite territory, is, in my interpretation (following Chetwynd) a non-sequitor. On my model, following Chetwynd, if Ebla was an Israelite kingdom, whether Samaria or not, then obviously Omri built his capital in the heart of his kingdom and it was not in Syrian territory. Aram would have been a separate kingdom, simply of smaller size than is commonly assumed. (This argument is supported by the relative paucity of Late Bronze remains so far found at Damascus, the capital of Aram in the First Temple period.) Concerning the Eblaite geographical list of West Semitic sites, including Sadam and Admu-ud ...

... end at the West Pacific Rise (rupture). The eastern thrust moved, however, through the "Mediterranean" and "Near East" then through a blast area which soon was overrun by a jumble of lands moving southwards. Finally major rifts struck out from the Tethyan fracture north and south. On the south a Mediterranean and a Syrian fracture join the Red Sea rift and continue south across East Africa to join the proto-Indian fork. In proportion to a number of submarine fissures, this rift was a moderate addition to the world fracture system. Africans of the Rift countries retain legends of great structural changes in their land. To their stories are to be added similar Arab ...
138. Part III: The Legends [Ragnarok] [Books]
... North Americans of Antiquity," p240. CHAPTER 9. THE TRIUMPH OF THE SUN. A great solar myth underlies all the ancient mythologies. It commemorates the death and resurrection of the sun. It signifies the destruction of the light by the clouds, the darkness, and the eventual return of the great luminary of the world. The Syrian Adonis, the sun-god, the Hebrew Tamheur, and the Assyrian Du-Zu, all suffered a sudden and violent death, disappeared for a time from the sight of men, and were at last raised from the dead. The myth is the primeval form of the resurrection. All through the Gothic legends runs this thought, the battle of ...

... offering. F. Lenormant identified the god EI Gabal (whose name was taken by the frantic fanatic Heliogabalus, as high-priest of the sacred (tone) with the old Chaldean god of cosmic fire, Gibil, who was also called the god of the black stone. The Semitic word gabaloo means lofty, and is used in Aramean and Syrian place, names to imply heights.1 Here the central fire of the Universe-wheel (which I have to defer till later on), the black stone, and the height of heaven, are all brought together. The extremely early religious relation which is here sought to be established between, let us say, ironstone and fire would ...

... the scholars did not dare to recognise: they were built when Israel was already settled in Canaan." (2 ) Day asks, "Why should it not be this Kadesh (on the Orontes river in northern Syria) which is in view in Thutmose III's inscriptions?" It is certainly so, as Day says, that several Syrian cities including Damascus are mentioned on the list. But we must still ask "why a city outside Palestine was places at the head of a list of Palestinian cities "why a city outside Palestine or an insignificant city in Palestine was placed at the head of a list of Palestinian cities" - even if including some on the Syrian ...
