... such as it was, belongs with it. This is the same epoch to which belong the finds of multichambered gates attributed to Solomon. Again, if Velikovsky is correct these gates belong to the Assyrian period. That the gates are not of Solomonic origin should have been recognized by the discovery of a similar gate far to the north in Syrian territory (Carchemish). What would Solomon be doing building city gates in this northern area? It follows from Velikovsky's revision (corrected to leave Rameses II in the 8th century) that these gates belong to the 8th century Assyrians. The Megiddo investigations remained enigmatic in their interpretation until Yagael Yadin claimed to have found evidence at Hazor to ...
292. 'Peoples of the Sea': An Art Historical Perspective [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Babylon of Nebuchadnezzar II (35). E. Baldwin Smith came close to the: art historical truth of Ramses III's fortress gateway, but then shrank back into vaguery and speculation. "In origin this gateway has been at times described as an architectural intrusion borrowed from the brick architecture of the East, because of its designation by the Syrian name migdol*, its vaulted chambers, and its vertical instead of battered walls. While its use and even its adoption at Medinet Habu may have been influenced by Ramses' wars in the East, the tradition of a towered gateway goes back to the beginnings of Dynastic architecture." (36). The architectural links are all ...
... cold [91:94- 1 1 i]. Like Velikovsky, Donnelly claimed to have found descriptions of such events in the legends of Asia (Hindu, Chinese, Burman, Polynesian), Europe (Druid, Greek, German, Spanish, Eskimo, Scandinavian), Egypt, the Middle East (Persian, Phoenician, Babylonian, Syrian, Hebrew, Assyrian, Moslem), Africa, South America, and Central and North America. The similarities of detail are striking: "Acted upon by magnetism or electricity. . . in the tail of the comet" [91:45], the latter appeared in the sky and was described for posterity as a bear ...

295. Chronological Implications of a Proper Identification of the Labyrinth: Part II [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... III. The dead king speaking in the papyrus (Ramesses III) says that a long time before, Egypt's kings had been overthrown from without and Egypt was without kings [21]. Egypt's new rulers, he laments, were not respectful of Egypt's gods. Finally, near the end of this period, someone named Yarsu, a Syrian, took over and despoiled the country. In a footnote, Breasted explains that Yarsu' can also be read as Arisu' or Arsu' and Arsu' is the translation used by Gardiner [22]. The foregoing perfectly describes conditions in Egypt after its conquest by the Persians. The Persians were outsiders and the offensive actions of ...
296. The Rise of Blood Sacrifice [Journals] [Aeon]
... on the priest. He has nobody to resort to for redeeming the guilt which weighs heavily on him. Self-flagellation and ascetic penitential renunciation which went as far as self-mutilation, (112) were therefore techniques used by priests as a means of expiation. The latter found its extreme expression in self-castration which is not only known for priests of the Syrian Goddess Cybele, (113) but also for the sacred executioners in the Aztec cult of Quetzalcoatl. (114) The first priests able to provide release from collective frenzy were considered heroic not only for their innovative mind, but also because initially the sacrificial act was dangerous. The victim did not necessarily co-operate. It was no easy ...
297. The 'New Chronology' and the Amarna Period [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... do not just identify Aziru of the Letters with biblical Hadadezer but also DU.Teshub (son and successor of Aziru known through correspondence with the Hittites) with Bar-Hadad, the son of Hadadezer. DU.Teshub's name means son of Teshub' (the Hurrian weather god), whilst Bar-Hadad/Ben-Hadad means son of Hadad' (the Syrian weather god). b) EA 170 refers to Lupakku, commander of the troops of Hatti' campaigning in Syria. We know he led a major assault upon the land of Amqu (Beqa Valley) from Hittite texts and that Suppiluliumas I undertook a major campaign of conquest against the kingdom of Mitanni (Aram-Naharaim), probably during ...
298. A Chronology for the Eighteenth Dynasty [Journals] [SIS Review]
... . Moreover, it is hard to explain Rehoboam's presence at Megiddo in the kingdom of Israel four years after the secession of the Northern Tribes. Finally, if Kadesh is Jerusalem, then its capture is recorded in year 30 of Thutmose III during his sixth campaign (35). However, the context in which this event appears is clearly Syrian, rather than Palestinian, so that the latter campaign would have been against Kadesh on Orontes. It is also possible that the Temple in Jerusalem was sacked during the unrecorded 4th campaign of Thutmose III, between his 26th and 28th regnal years. But there is no positive evidence to support this view. However, elsewhere in these pages ...
299. Assyrians and Babylonian Chronologies for 8th - 6th Centuries BC [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... 9th if it contains a 9th century stela. Could this be the start of a collapse in Palestinian pottery dates? The identity of the kings of Syria, Israel and Judah mentioned on the stela remains controversial. The early newspaper reports gave Ben-Hadad I, Baasha and Asa (c .890BC), but the IEJ article suggests a minor Syrian king who fought with Ben-Hadad I, although it leaves open other possibilities. BAR points out the problem that Asa was allied to Ben-Hadad, not defeated by him, and suggests there may have been additional wars not mentioned in the Bible (p39). A further short article in IEJ (1993 pp246-7) proposes that the stela was ...

... presents them, their effect does seem overwhelming. The period of the domination of Egypt by the Hyksos, traditionally, and consistently with all other available evidence, reckoned to have lasted about 500 years, comes out either as embarrassingly short (about 100) or absurdly long (about 1600); the Greek, the Cypriot, and the Syrian (Ras Shamra) datings which have been brought into conformity with the Egyptian result in a "dark age" of some five to six hundred years, in which nothing seems to have happened, in the history of these places; archaeologists have, with quite monotonous regularity, found articles in adjacent levels in these places which have strong ...
