... ,800 years]. This table extends as far as historic times — just before the beginning of the second millennium B.C . "This list, which scholars call the Old Babylonian King List, WB 444, ' is complemented by two others known as A' and B. ' With the aid of these, of the Assyrian King List' found at Khorsabad in the winter of 1932-3, and of several fragmentary lists of later dynasties, chronology can be brought down to the first millennium B.C .— at which point there is sufficient information from other [documentary] sources to make exact dating fairly easy."2 Are these lists accurate and reliable ...
102. Thutmose III: A Different Perspective [Journals] [Aeon]
... the main fortified positions other than Jerusalem. Its fortified characteristics can be inferred as its choice of haven for Ahaziah in his unsuccessful flight from the murderous Jehu. Its later characteristics as a fortress, and its suitability as a battle ground, dictated its choice as preferred venue by Josiah to stop Necho II's assistance to Assyria. Earlier, the Assyrians had appreciated the suitability of Megiddo and made it the capital of one of their provinces. In the time of the el Amarna correspondence, Megiddo was defended through a siege of some duration. In terms of choice then, the northern allies had Hazor, Megiddo, Jerusalem, or Gezer as fortified cities after Solomon's reign. The topography ...
103. Eastern Anatolia and Velikovsky's Chronological Revisions - II [Journals] [Kronos]
... located upon the Armenian plateau between these new states. These smaller polities - Hayasa-Azzi, Ishuwa, Hubushkia, etc. - are represented as being vassals now of one, then of the other of their two great neighbors. In c. 1300 B.C . Mitanni disappears, presumably crushed between the Hittites and the growing might of the Assyrians to the south. Assyrian records(3 ) now succeed those of the Hittites and in these we find reference not only to the smaller formations mentioned as existing earlier on the Armenian plateau but also to such newer peoples as the Daiaeni and Uruatri (later: Urartu).(4 ) The region of the Armenian plateau inhabited by ...
104. New Proposals for a Downdating of the Egyptian New Kingdom (Part II) [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... important possible objection to a c.1008 dating (or any major downdating) of year 67 of Ramesses II. This difficulty arises, in part, from an apparent synchronism between the Hittite king Tudhalias IV (accession: in or soon after year 42 of Ramesses II; here, in or soon after c.1033) and an Assyrian king, Shalmaneser.54 An identification of the latter with Shalmaneser I (c .1263-1234)- which could fit well with the usual dating of year 42 of Ramesses II to 1238- seems to be strongly supported by the occurrence of many other ca. 14th-13th c. Mesopotamian royal names (RN's) in various late Dyn. ...
105. The Autumn Meeting [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... but on the basis of pen and paper chronologies derived from various different historical interpretations these were all assigned to much earlier periods. The four expected strata have never been identified, to the extent that the world empire of the Persians is considered elusive, the Medish superpower a phantom and the confusion 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 an historical figure the chronology was retained because of ...
106. The Road to Iron: 8th and 7th Century Metallurgy and the Decline of Egyptian Power [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... and Amos- first of the literary prophets- and of the rise of Assyria to world power. John Bimson, in his revised stratigraphy, which underlies the Glasgow Chronology, dates the crucial transitional period from Late Bronze to the Early Iron Age in Palestine to c. 733-700 B.C .1- the very time of the great Assyrian conquests and of the climax of Mars catastrophes according to Velikovsky's Worlds in Collission model.2 The significance of the terms "Iron Age" and "Bronze Age," as Velikovsky rightly emphasizes in his essay on the subject,3 reflects the extent to which these metals are found in the archaeological strata. "Various objects wrought of ...
107. Introduction to Ramessides, Medes and Persians [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... . This involved a compressing of history much more dramatic than anything even Velikovsky had envisaged. From there it was but a short step to recognising that Velikovsky's date for the 18th Dynasty, which involved taking five centuries off the length of history, was too high. By 1987 Heinsohn had equated the Mitanni with the Medes, conquerors of the Assyrian Empire in the 7th century. Since the Mitanni were contemporaries of the 18th Dynasty, it became imperative likewise to place that line of kings in the 7th century. In effect then what Heinsohn had done was what the other researchers had failed even to consider. Leave Ramses II and the 19th Dynasty where Velikovsky had placed them in the ...
108. Ancient Near Eastern Chronology Revised [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... ones ( -2000 to -1700) as was expected. (12) After Hyksos and Old Akkadians shared scripts, scimitars, triple gates, pottery shapes, vaulted burials, temple plans, etc., it became unavoidable to postulate their stratigraphic contemporaneity. To establish the identity of stratigraphical horizons for Old Akkadians (as well as for Old Assyrians) and Hyksos, we have to return to the chronologically all-important Mitanni: The -17th/ -16th century strata of the Hyksos in Egypt (Tell el-Daba), Israel (Megiddo) and Syro-Phoenicia (Alalakh) sit directly underneath the strata of the Mitanni (or New Kingdom) period of the -15th/ -14th century. These Hyksos strata ...
109. The Albrecht/Glueck-Aharoni/Rothenberg Confrontation [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... pre-Solomonic era, while it is at its acme in the post-Solomonic period. Since the beginning and ending dates for the use of the pottery in question are indistinct, some degree of latitude remains, though certainly not to the extent of harmonizing the two views. It is not without interest that Glueck defended his analysis in part in terms of Assyrian evidence, while Aharoni was correlating his finds with Egyptian history. There has been a growing suspicion among some scholars that the chronologies of Egypt and Assyria for this era have not been correctly correlated with each other. Hence it is not impertinent to raise the question; could this be the ultimate reason these debates continued so long without a ...
110. Bouquets and Brickbats: A Reply to Martin Sieff [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... to the 9th century B.C .; The hundreds of carved ivory fragments which tally with the Old Testament's claim that Ahab had turned his residence into a "house of ivory"; The nature of the Hebrew script used to list invoices on ostraca, the style of which has also been dated to the 9th century; and The Assyrian Palace Ware discovered above the destruction level that coincides with the Assyrian rebuilding and occupation of the city following its conquest by Sargon II. Against this, Sieff offered Yehoshua Etzion's "forthcoming book" in which "the Iron Age settlement at Samaria [is placed] not in Israelite hands, but Samaritan!"42 The Samaritans, of ...
