... tribes only, and the substitution of Hebrew by Aramaic, all seem to suggest a prolonged period of disaster for the Hebrew people, from the internal evidence. Although considerable doubt has been thrown on the external.evidence for a "Dark Ages" in the Ancient Near East, it cannot be dismissed entirely yet. If, after the Amarna period and after the reign of Jehosphaphat, there is a GAP in the Bible, corresponding to a DARK AGE in the. area, then the striking parallels between the Hebrew account of the Plagues and the "Papyrus Ipuwer" and the Prophecy of Neferty, as well as the remarkable similarity between the booty of Thutmose III and the ...
292. The Lion Gate At Mycenae Revisited [Journals] [SIS Review]
... / chronological affairs [76]. The Gordian knot of art historical controversy is not so easily cut, either. As Demargne has put it: To what extent was the Mycenaean world influenced by Syria or Egypt either directly or via Cyprus .. Conversely, to what extent were the civilizations of the Syrian towns, of the Egypt of Amarna and the XIXth Dynasty, accessible to Aegean influences? ' [77]. Nevertheless, one thing is certain and that is the fact that according to'?the now accepted art historical framework, we have a renowned work of monumental sculpture which timewise exists in apparent splendid isolation' and alien in spirit to the Cretan artistic temperament ...
293. A New Interpretation of the Assyrian King List [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... the middle and early neo-Assyrian kings. Thus, as has been argued elsewhere, a more modified approach to Egyptian chronology than was proposed by Velikovsky in his Ages in Chaos series would be in agreement with this approach for Mesopotamian chronology, based upon the close cross-synchronizations attested between Assyria/Babylonia, the Hittites and Egypt in the period between the Amarna Age and the late reign of Ramses II. There is no need to call the conventional view of this era into question, aside from the actual dates involved. It is hoped this paper will provide a stimulus for others working on the problems of approaching a revised Mesopotamian chronology. Copyright (c ) Lester J. Mitcham 1985 APPENDIX ...
294. Society News [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Persian gods. They sent a statue of the goddess Ishtar to Akhenaten's father. Mitanni conquered Assyria. Shoshtatar took the gold from Nineveh. Bob said that the stratigraphy of a suburb of Babylon, where German excavators, Coldevai and Reuter found dateable tablets, has Parthians, Seleucid, Persian, neo-Babylonian, Babylonian/neo-Assyrian, two Kassite (Amarna correspondents) Hammurabi, then water. This doesn't fit Heinsohn. Emmett said there is usually no Persian layer - directly below the Hellenistic, Seleucid is neo-Assyrian. Bob said that in Babylon they found the neo-Babylonian housing continuing into the Persian with minor rebuilding. The Persians did not inflict their culture - they had a satrap as long as ...
295. Forum [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... furniture depicted in relief on the walls of the Great Temple at Karnak and reproduced in Ages in Chaos were booty from Solomon's temple and the royal palace of Jerusalem. The vessels appear to be fairly common Late Bronze types, and some of them at least are of Egyptian rather than Palestinian origin. Finally the political structure of Palestine in the Amarna Age - about three generations later than Thutmose III - differed fundamentally from the Israel of Ahab and the Judah of Jehoshaphat, as a reading of the numerous el-Amarna letters not quoted in Ages in Chaos makes clear. QUESTION from Peter van der Veen: (Peter has been actively involved in the new revision for some time, helping with ...
296. A Slice Through Time (dendrochronology and precision dating) by M. G. L. Baillie [Journals] [SIS Review]
... 18th Dynasty by some 80 years is something you just cannot do [12]. What Baillie has done instead is to redate the entire New Kingdom by 80 years. This is worse. Among the many insuperable obstacles is the need to add the same 80 years to Assyrian chronology which ties in, as is well known, in the Amarna period. In assessing the date of the eruption of Thera, he called on the evidence adduced by Betancourt and Michael, who had argued that the archaeological evidence permitted the 17th century eruption date favoured by scientists. Betancourt and Michael had championed the case for Thera's eruption during the Hyksos period, before the advent of the 18th Dynasty. ...
297. Were the "Sumerians of the Third Millennium" in Reality the Chaldeans of the First Millennium? [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... until 1400. The resulting difficulties for the historian become even greater, since, after this dark epoch without sources, the cuneiform texts do not reemerge in Mesopotamia- the birthplace of cuneiform script- nor in Syria, nor even in Palestine, but- of all places!- in distant upper Egypt, in the archives of Tell El Amarna, Akhnaton's capital, Akhet A ton. This circumstance further increases the difficulties, since cuneiform documents in the Near East do not reappear immediately afterwards, but again only from about 700 B.C .- and then in immense numbers. Kramer's conclusion, "that we have to telescope chronology," particularly in relation to the Near ...
298. Critique of David Rohl's A Test of Time [Journals] [SIS Review]
... boats through the cataracts at low Nile, engineers of Sesostris III cut channels through the rock. 9. Rohl, op. cit. p. 419, footnote 6. 10. One is reminded of Rohl's criticism of Velikovsky for his allegedly cursory footnote treatment of Labayu, when Velikovsky was clearly convinced that Labayu, mentioned in the El Amarna letters, had no significant role to play. However, there can be no cavil about the relevance of Jean Vercoutter's work to the flood/ famine scenario. 11. Wendorf, R. et al., The Use of Barley in the Late Neolithic Age', Science 205 (28 September 1979): 1342, quoted from ...

300. Letters [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Divided or Undivided, we need a Prince of Retenu, weak of arms', unable to do anything about his allies to whom he obviously provided much of the good produce of Retenu'. I nominate Rehoboam. My as yet unpublished theory counts back from the first capture of Sumur, Samaria, uses information not given by Velikovsky's El Amarna section, accepts Thiele's date for Rehoboam and ends up with the siege of Sharuhen finishing in year 3 or 4 of Rehoboam. It thus follows that Jeroboam fled to Shishak Kamose and that the pharaoh who sacked Gezer for his daughter was a Hyksos king allied to Solomon. The coup by Jeroboam changed the power base of the Hyksos, ...
