... 490 BC and from the ongoing struggle between Carthage and Greek colonists for the control of Sicily. In The Flood from Heaven, the German geoarchaeologist, Eberhard Zangger, refuses to accept the fiction' hypothesis, largely because the Atlantis civilization described by Plato is far from ideal, being one with corrupt and tyrannical rulers. Moreover, Zangger's previous archaeological investigations at Bronze Age Tiryns, in the Greek Argolid, had revealed a devastating flood and possible earthquakes near the end of the Late Helladic IIIB period, which had distinct echoes of the Atlantis story. The submerging of Atlantis is well known, but Plato's account also referred to the disastrous consequences of earthquakes and floods in Attica, which ...
682. An Integrated Model for an Earthwide Event at 2300 BC. Part II: The Geological Evidence [Journals] [SIS Review]
... SIS Review V:3 and C & C Review IX), represent extended extracts of chapters in the book. Introduction The evidence presented in this article is the next step in assembling a pattern of data for determining the nature of an event that may have happened 4300 years ago. The themes of the previous two articles, dealing with archaeological and climatological evidence, were fairly self-consistent, demonstrating the effect that a changing climatic environment can have on the geographic rearrangement of cultures. The geological evidence in this chapter also provides good support for the postulated 2300 BC event. There is much data indicating that Earth may have undergone some sort of geological perturbation at that time, and I ...

684. Institute for the Study of Interdisciplinary Sciences [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... and the New Chronology by Robert M. Porter: Recent developments in Iron Age chronology are instigating fresh discussion and debate over previously accepted synchronisms between the Divided Monarchy Period (as handed down through biblical history) and the stratigraphy of ancient Palestine. In addition to pointing out problems with the conventional dating scheme, Bob Porter attempts to place the archaeological evidence into the framework of the New Chronology, suggesting revised dates for the sub-periods of the Iron Age in Palestine. The Chronology of Ancient Assyria Re-assessed: Parts 1 and 2 by Bernard Newgrosh: The modern reconstruction of the history of ancient Assyria is re-examined with particular emphasis on the two major sources, the eponym canon and the king ...

... From: C&C Review 2004:3 (Incorporating C&C Workshop 2004:4 ) Home | Issue Home Canaanites, Chronologies and Connections, by Susan Cohen Eisenbrauns, 2002. Reviewed by Laurence Dixon This book is one of orthodox archaeology and consists of five chapters, which review the relationship between the Middle Kingdom of Egypt and the culture known as MBIIa in Canaan. This is an important period for any attempt to produce an alternative chronology and is a period that has rarely been discussed in such detail. Chapter 1 is headed Previous Research'. In the Introduction it is stated that determining the relationship between the MBIIa in Canaan and the 12th Dynasty in Egypt ...

... and visited the numerous places named in the tales and has traced the specific period of Gudrun's life in relation to Roman history." [11] What emerged from this study is that the epic is exclusively indigenous to those territories which had, at one time or another, been occupied by the Goths. This conclusion received confirmation through the archaeological discoveries of the countries involved - Yugoslavia, Austria, Greece and Asia Minor, Poland, Russia, Sweden, Denmark, England, Germany, France, Spain and, to an extent, even Morocco and Tunisia [12]. Just as important was Wiencke-Lotz's meeting with the folklore-telling communities that still exist in some of these countries. ...

... At the same time he de-emphasizes the significance of four dor in Genesis 14:13 (while acknowledging that they probably refer to 100-year periods). Current literature intimates that dor should probably be taken more seriously. [2 ] In the light of new evidence the association of Joseph with the Hyksos now seems unlikely. [3 ] The archaeological record, too, is murky and does not completely favor anyone's theories. Other views were available to Sarna at the time of writing, [4 ] and one is left with the feeling that had he incorporated them, the result might have been a more comprehensive view of the problem. Sarna's discussion of the Egyptian basis for the ...

689. Introduction to the Proceedings [Journals] [SIS Review]
... ]. Pensée published various pioneering papers investigating Velikovsky's historical claims - notably "A Criticism of the Revised Chronology" by Dr W. H. Stiebing Jr of Louisiana State University, together with Velikovsky's replies, and two key papers by Israel Isaacson, the first of which was titled "Applying the Revised Chronology". This paper analysed the archaeological findings at five major ancient sites which were held by Stiebing to pose insuperable problems for a revised chronology. Isaacson came to very different conclusions [7 ]: "We were told that [these five sites] could not come down by centuries in time, thus the revised chronology .. . was disproved by archaeological facts. What ...
690. Evidence that the Earth has Suffered Catastrophes of Cosmic Origin in Historical Times: the Conclusions of the 2nd SIS Conference [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Did the Glasgow Conference influence our approach to Velikovsky's Worlds in Collision thesis? ' The answer here is: Visibly very little, but in terms of creative output, very substantially! ' At Glasgow we were made aware of problems with radiocarbon dates, of Earth axis tilts and the alignment of megalithic observatories, and even of the paucity of archaeological evidence to support the thesis of catastrophes caused by extra-terrestrial agents in historical times. On the latter, there has been a striking absence of catastrophist literature supporting Velikovsky's Mars events' of the 8th and 7th centuries BC. It was noted at Glasgow that the archaeological record for the end of the Middle Bronze Age did not support Velikovsky's interpretation ...
