... shields. Next morning they commenced their flight and great multitudes fell, as they had no arms with which to defend themselves.(Fn: History, iii; Rawlinson translation.) [Gaposchkin concluded:] If all readers had complete classical libraries, and could read them; if every man were his own Assyriologist and habitually studied the Bible in the Hebrew and Septuagint versions, Dr Velikovsky would have had short shrift. [When Velikovsky submitted to the editors of the Proceedings of the American Philosophical Society evidence that he had not misquoted the Biblical passages, had not ascribed blast of fire' to a Biblical text, and had not suppressed Herodotus's version, he was refused access ...
612. Night of the Gods: Polar Myths. The Pole Star [Books]
... as to the sacred value of the Pole star. Under the head of the Magnet I have shown how in Europe and Arabia in the 12th and 13th centuries the needle was regarded as pointing " to the North Star, the motionless axe of the firmament," or to "The Star" and the extract from Guyot de Provins's La Bible is remarkable as comparing our rather the Apostolic (the Pope) to this Star, which is beautiful, clear, and immoveable, Arabic names for the compass are ibreh el-kutbiyeh = needle of the pole, and kutb numa = pole indicator.101 It is also called star-box, singfan in China. But we have seen the polestar ...

614. The Timna Test [Journals] [Aeon]
... Egyptians and Midianites in the thirteenth century, generally accepted as the period of the Exodus, is of course of great significance and raises many problems. There seems to be little doubt that the actual existence of a large scale Pharaonic industrial enterprise in the Arabah during the fourteenth to twelfth centuries BC will require reconsideration of the factual foundations of current Bible interpretations and historical concepts regarding the Exodus." [23] The prognosis of this tented phase of the Timna temple as having taken place in the thirteenth century BC certainly does give rise to many problems with the Biblical narrative and "historical concepts regarding the Exodus." But, now exposed to the error of that proposition, we ...

... and lectures to the present Italian commitment in that continent. A member of the Italian Scientific Institution "Centro Camuno di Studi Preistorici," he continues to co-operate with the renowned Professor Emmanuel Anati and regularly participates in his archaeological researches in Israel. Barbiero is the author of various articles and books on different subjects, ranging from geology to the Bible. J. Eric Aitchison was educated at Newcastle Boys High School in Classics, Latin, French, History etc., but finished school early due to family finances. During varied employment, he gained his accountancy degree. His chosen industry was NSW Public Hospitals. During this employment, he gained a degree in Health Administration (Univ ...
616. Towards a New Chronology of Ancient Egypt (Review) [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... called Salem or Shalem also mentioned in Egyptian texts in a northern context. Indeed the king of the Amama Urusalim has a Hurrian type name. There is no compelling reason, other than an academic tradition, to believe that Jerusalem is really mentioned in the Amarna letters. A basic discussion of these problems can be found in the International Standard Bible Encyclopedia volume 2 p. 999-1000. And it by no means exhausts the problems or possible solutions concerning this association. Perhaps the greatest weakness of Lasken's overview of the new chronology is a lack of depth. I know that he was limited by space in this particular article, however, if space is truly a problem I would invite ...
617. Can Imhotep be Joseph? (Letter) [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... Hammamat.28 One of these contains a list of his ancestors consisting of a long line of architects who are listed father to son. The second earliest architect in this long line has been identified by many Egyptologists as Imhotep, the architect of Zoser.29 Hence, it would not seem possible for Joseph, if he was who the Bible says he was, to have been Imhotep. Jesse E. Lasken, Rockville, MD Notes 28 Porter and Moss, Topographical Bibliography (Oxford: Griffith Institute, 1952; reissue 1975),VII: 335-336. 29 See e.g . J. B. Hurry, Imhotep, 2nd ed.

618. A Critic in the Desert [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... seem to fit quite well with the archaeological finds, it might be claimed that the traditional view of the archaeological accounts as science is probably legitimate. On the other hand if the biblical narratives do not correlate well with the archaeological evidence, it is probable that this evidence is not scientifically accurate. By switching the places of the terms "bible" and "archaeology", the same argument will acquire the following form: "If the archaeological finds seem to fit quite well with the biblical accounts, it might be claimed that the traditional view of the Exodus and Conquest accounts as history is probably legitimate. On the other hand, if the archaeological evidence does not correlate with ...

... for accuracy. In addition, I object to Stiebing's insistence that there is something illegitimate with ascribing the break at the end of EBIII to an invasion and that at the end of MBI to massive urbanization. If there was no historical information available to us for this period he might have a point. But there is- it's called the Bible. Even if both of these breaks can be seen as either an invasion or a change in settled status, there is no reason why they must have both been one or the other, as they were independent events. The evidence is consistent with Vaninger's revision, which is all it needs to be. Brad Aaronson Jerusalem ...
620. About 'Where Troy Once Stood' (Letter) [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... is right. While I do not completely throw out his thesis he certainly is fighting an uphill battle. For example he theorized that Crete in Western Europe is Scandinavia, which to those have not read his book seems ludicrous and in fact may be. However, let me end this letter with an interesting coincidence. Cog Magog in the Bible is indeed connected with Turkey as is Troy. Also London by tradition was called New Troy. However, I think [the value] of this book is really only to force us not to accept traditional answers but to check the Iliad with each individual site. Lawrence Wargrave Tucson, Arizona ...
