... CONTENTS 290 VELIKOVSKIAN Vol. VI, Nos. 1, 2, 3 CHAPTER 10 IRON, DIORITE, AND THE SUMERIANS "Gudea built the Temple . . . With two hand-breadths of shining stone He cased the brickwork With diorite's hand-breadth of bright stone" Cylinder A Column XVI of Gudea, third millennium B.C . According to conventional chronology the Sumerians lived in Mesopotamia from about 2400 to 2024 B.C .1 They lived there about the time of the Old Kingdom in Egypt. This, of course, is the period when copper was supposed to have been the main metal used for tools. Gold and silver were too precious for such everyday work. The Mesopotamians ...
412. Society News [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 1998:1 (Sep 1998) Home | Issue Contents Society News SIS 1998 AGM The 1998 AGM was held on 17th April in the University of London Union and attended by the usual core of older enthusiasts, with the welcome addition of new faces who we hope will continue to support us with youthful vigour. The Chairman noted that 1997 had been a very successful year, crowned by the society's second Cambridge Conference. This had been rather different from previous conferences in that it had been confined to only one topic but the topicality of this had led to much outside interest and the broader interests of the society had been represented by some ...
413. The End of Mitanni and Some Related Problems [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... From: Catastrophism and Ancient History III:1 (Jan 1981) Home | Issue Contents The End of Mitanni and Some Related Problems Lester J. Mitcham * This article is the result of proposals by Dr. Robert Hewsen for the revision of Mitannian and Hittite chronology which appeared as "Eastern Anatolia and Velikovsky's Chronological Revisions," Parts I and II. in Kronos, Vol. I, Part 3, and Vol. IV, Part I. Our knowledge of Mitannian history depends on known contacts with its neighbors- Egypt in particular- and will continue to be limited until the archives of this important but short-lived kingdom are discovered. The historical outline of this nation prior ...
414. Chronological Contradictions [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... From: Catastrophism and Ancient History X:1 (Jan 1988) Home | Issue Contents INTERACTION Chronological Contradictions Lester J. Mitcham I must express my puzzlement at the contradictions Dean Hickman introduces into his highly controversial "Chronology for Israel and Judah" (C &AH, VII:2 , VIII:1 ). From page 6 (VIII:1 ) it is noted that: The throne name of the king of Assyria who completed the conquest of Israel was Sargon II (722-705 B.C .) .27 27. Sargon recorded: "I besieged and conquered Samaria [Sa-me-ri-na],led away as booty 27,290 inhabitants of it" (ANET ...
415. Editor's Notes [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 1998:1 (Sep 1998) Home | Issue Contents Editor's Notes Bob Porter's Special Report on Thera in this issue has potentially great significance for everyone working on ancient history (Recent Developments in Near Eastern Archaeology, p. 27). The eruption of Thera is a key marker in the history of civilisations around the Mediterranean and it gives the opportunity to link historical records and archaeological finds with the dates derived from tree ring studies (dendrochronology) and ice cores. The consensus' date for the eruption in recent years has been 1628BC - a date which suits the conventional chronology (although it is actually a little early for it) ...
416. I Samuel and the Habiru Problem [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... From: SIS Chronology and Catastrophism Workshop 1990 No 1 (June 1990) Home | Issue Contents REVIEWS I Samuel and the Habiru Problem by Peter van der Veen (Leuven, 1989) Peter van der Veen's Thesis, submitted to the Evangelical Theological Faculty of Louvain in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Licentiate in Theology, is subtitled An Investigation on the Literary Usage of Habiru and Ibrim in the El-Amarna Letters and in I Samuel'. In terms of the conventional chronology, the el-Amarna Letters and the events of I Samuel are separated by some 300 years: therefore one might not expect to find that the terms Habiru (in the Amarna Letters) and Ibrim ...
417. Anno Domini Anomalies [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... From: SIS Chronology and Catastrophism Workshop 2005:2 (May 2005) Home | Issue Contents Anno Domini Anomalies Phillip Clapham The Anglo Saxon Chronicle assigns to the year AD 538 a solar eclipse. In the year AD 540 it records another solar eclipse – and specifically states that in that year the stars were invisible. As modern calculations show that no eclipse took place in northern Europe in those years it has become common to suppose Bede borrowed the tradition from a Byzantine source. However, a problem remains as the years between AD 536-545 are defined by a series of narrow tree rings. The most obvious reason for restricted growth during summer months is a dust laden atmosphere – ...
418. Letters to the Editor C&AH 3:2 [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... From: Catastrophism and Ancient History III:2 (July 1981) Home | Issue Contents Letters to the Editor Editor, C&AH: I've been meaning to put down my thoughts on the alternative chronologies dealing with a solution to Ages in Chaos. I do not yet feel convinced by either the Glasgow or the Courville chronology, mainly because Velikovsky compared literary documents describing events (e .g . Book of Exodus, Papyrus Ipuwer, Shrine of El Arish) and used them as the best evidence- he did not try to work them into contrived archaeological concepts based on doubtful conventional chronology. Gammon's Glasgow plan attempts to preserve the present structure of Egyptian history as closely ...
419. SIS Study Group 17th June 2000 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 2001:1 (Apr 2001) Home | Issue Contents SIS Study Group 17th June 2000 John Crowe The meeting was held at David Roth's house, with 12 present. The first discussion, led by John Crowe (JC) concerned the Old Testament periods of 40, 300, 400, 430, and 480 years and whether these could be taken literally. He had talked on this at the AGM but had not had time to cover all his prepared material. This has since been written up as a two part paper for C&CR for publication, so only points arising during the meeting are mentioned below. The session started ...
420. Forum [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... to Bernard Newgrosh, in SISW, vol.6 :1 , pp.20-21 (400 Year Stela & the plague). The "400 Year Stela", (ANET pp.252-53) is the only Egyptian text that pre-dates an era, and it is unfortunate that Dr Velikovsky didn't discuss it. It would have strengthened his chronology. David's answer shows the weakness of his chronology, and doesn't begin to answer the questions raised. His chart is not only misleading, but confuses the real issues. What does Horemheb have to do with the "400 Year Stela"? He is not mentioned. David is relying on conventional chronology and the introductionary notes of the ...
