... it was not so much the actual chronology as the means by which it was derived which was discussed. The hard evidence is obtained in the form of strata uncovered in archaeological digs. The historians of ancient Greece wrote that after the emergence of a high culture in Assyria there were three great empires, those of the Ninos-Assyrians, the Medes ... which has reigned over attempts to identify the Ninos Assyrians has led to stratigraphic inversions. How were these pen and paper chronologies derived? A biblical chronology was openly retained by archaeologists until the late 19th century and biblical chronology was originally based on the belief in a 3rd millennium date for the birth of Abraham. Even after Abraham was discarded as ...

... the city, but by its scarcity. Thus, in the CAH, A. Kuhrt, one of the most experienced archaeologists in the field, remarked on how: Archaeological material from Babylonia for the [Persian] period as a whole and for its earlier phase in particular is unfortunately not extensive, ' whilst the material culture of the ... ), I feel latter's statement that there is abundant' Persian age material in Babylon needs further comment. Where Trevor got the word abundant' from is beyond me. Archaeologists are struck, not by the abundance of Persian material in the city, but by its scarcity. Thus, in the CAH, A. Kuhrt, one of ...
133. Did Artaxerxes III Despoil The Temple In Jerusalem? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Heinsohn's work is that the so-called Neo-Assyrians must be identical to the Persians. Heinsohn was forced to that conclusion for a very simple reason: Mesopotamia could provide little or no archaeology for the two centuries during which it was part of the Achaemenid Empire. Indeed the absence of Persian strata is so complete that some modern scholars, most notably Heleen ... the removal of these hiatuses makes the archaeology of Assyria conform precisely to the history of the region which was outlined by the classical authors but could never be confirmed by the archaeologists. Thus, when we remove the 7 centuries between the Akkadians (whose greatest king was named Sargon) and the Mita (nni), (who boasted repeatedly ...

I know Velikovsky's argument is very dangerous one and his theory is not welcomed to the most of Archaeologist and/or Astronomer.

... Persian Empire, Chicago, 1948, p. 162). Heinsohn and I have made three basic statements about the Achaemenid empire. These are: There is very little archaeological evidence for the empire (outside of Persia proper) The history of the empire is derived almost entirely from ancient literary sources: archaeology has added little or nothing to ... recognisable remains of these kings in the region: and he is seemingly unaware that this is the very dichotomy between archaeology and written history referred to by Sancisi-Weerdenberg. Whilst the archaeologist can find almost nothing belonging to the Persians from the time of Artaxerxes I onwards, the ancient texts, on the contrary, claim that Babylon became a major centre ...

This came after eleven years of painstaking excavations during which Tell Mardikh attracted little notice outside a small circle of archaeologists interested in the history of ancient Syria. The subsequent translation of a few tablets from the archive attracted the attention of the press. It was reported that the tablets ...

He was one of the last members of what ... However, it was the Ancient Near East which was to prove both a life-long interest for more than five decades and the basis of his reputation as one of the greatest archaeologists in a period during which people of the calibre of Mortimer Wheeler, Max Mallowan, Pierre Montet and many others were also active.

Hence we will ... ), 1792 (Middle), or 1736 (Low) B.C .[ 5 ] Since Harnmurabi presumably could not possibly have ruled as late as David, archaeologists contend that the word "Davidum" or "dawidum" is better translated as "chieftains." While admitting the Benjaminites of the Mari letters correspond in name precisely ...
