... and Ancient History II:1 (Aug 1979) Home | Issue Contents INTERACTION Date of Amarna Letters from Tyre and a Possible Date for Carthage Lester J. Mitcham Some time ago I had occasion to query with Dr. Donovan Courville his method of calculating 824 B.C .as the date for the founding of Carthage based on Tyrian chronology. The main problem is that the individual reigns for the Kings of Tyre as yielded by Josephus do not equal the stated total of one hundred and forty-three years from the twelfth year of Hiram to the seventh of Pygmalion. Courville's reply to this query was simple – "It is the total which is correct." I therefore refer ...
552. The Nature and Scale of an Exodus Catastrophe Reassessed [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review (1994) "Proceedings of the 1993 Cambridge Conference" Home | Issue Contents The Nature and Scale of an Exodus Catastrophe Reassessed John J. Bimson Trinity College, Bristol Introduction "In the middle of the second millennium before the present era .. . the earth underwent one of the greatest catastrophes in its history. A celestial body that only shortly before had become a member of the solar system - a new comet - came very close to the earth. ". .. Mountains fell and others rose from level ground; the earth with its oceans and continents became heated; the sea boiled in many places and rock liquefied; ...
553. On "the Year -687" [Journals] [Kronos]
... histories and ancient books.(5 ) It is the earliest observation in the list. Ma got it from the Ch'un Ch'iu (or Spring and Autumn Annals), edited by Confucius from the annals of the State of Lu. There it appears under the entry for the seventh year of Duke Chuang of Lu, which, in the chronology that became traditional among Chinese scholars, corresponds to 687 B.C . Legge translates the passage as follows: "In summer, in the fourth month, on sin maou, at night, the regular stars were not visible. At midnight, there was a fall of stars like rain." The Tso Chuan commentary adds that ...
554. Letters [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Unearthed'. At the end I couldn't see what the implications were that Phillip was referring to. Having read Finklestein's book, the only implication I can see is that the academic establishment will never pull its head out of the sand. Finklestein and Silberman, by the way, are professional archaeologists/historians who do not question accepted ancient chronology. As a result (surprise, surprise) they cannot find any evidence for the existence of an Israelite United Kingdom prior to the 8th century BC. This is just the type of nonsense Velikovsky was trying to answer all those years ago; and since it's now over 50 years since the publication of Ages in Chaos there really is ...
555. Twists of Time [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 2001:2 (Jan 2002) Home | Issue Contents LETTERS Twists of Time Bob Porter Replying to Geoff Barnard's letter in C&CR 2001:1 p. 73, I am partly in agreement but more explanation is required. Geoff questioned how the New Chronology could down-date Egyptian, Hittite and Babylonian chronology by c.350 years at the times of Ramesses II, Hattusilis III and their Babylonian contemporaries Kadashman Turgu and Kadshman Enlil II (the Amarna period and the whole of Late Bronze II are, of course, similarly downdated), whereas in an earlier period the First Dynasty of Babylon was only down-dated by 227 years (based ...
556. The Miracles of the Exodus by Colin Humphries and The Moses Legacy by Graham Phillips (Book reviews) [Journals] [SIS Review]
... &C Review ( 'Part Two: The Geological Evidence'), claims that impact events were followed by several centuries of intermittent earthquakes at plate boundaries and along fault lines. In Chapter Three, Humphries dates Exodus and it is predictable. However, he does mention David Rohl and A Test of Time, but promptly rejects the New Chronology' on the grounds that archaeologists and historians have a well grounded framework. We've heard that sort of thing before and basically it means he is not prepared to be radical outside the parameters of his chosen field. This is reinforced as he takes on board the mainstream historical view that the traditional date of Exodus, at 1446 BC, ...
557. Assyrians, Sodom, and Red Herrings [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... ), gives us a crucial key to unraveling this final, puzzling problem. I will suggest here that I am in agreement with Emmet Sweeney's view that Tiglath-pileser "I " was a "ghost" of Tiglath-pileser III- a conclusion Dirkzwager also appears to embrace tentatively. The two keys, in my opinion, to the solution of Assyrian chronology are establishing that the three different king lists were not sequential, but simultaneous, or- at least- over-lapping. The "Assur-uballit Problem" can only be solved by moving Assur-uballit down to the late 10th or early 9th century. I will also suggest here that Shalmaneser III was the "overlord" of Horemhab, in the period ...
558. Egyptian Monumental Evidence [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... From: SIS Chronology and Catastrophism Workshop 1991 No 2 (Jan 1992) Home | Issue Contents Egyptian Monumental Evidence by Tony Rees ". .. The true value of any model lies in its potential to absorb entire fields of interdisciplinary evidence, whether scientific, monumental or literary. To just the degree that a model fails to use or to explain all the available evidence, in its entirety, then to that same degree, is that model invalidated, no matter how logical the evidence, or how fluently presented..." The above extract concluded a talk I gave at the Nottingham annual meeting in November 1990, entitled - Jewish and Greek Traditions and their Value ...
559. Heinsohn's Ancient "History" [Journals] [Aeon]
... of Hammurabi with Darius, arguably the most novel and controversial claim in a historical reconstruction remarkable for its radical nature. This identification, should it be upheld, would signal a revolution in our understanding of ancient history, since it would mean that the Old Babylonian king's reign- conventionally dated to c. 1792-1750 BCE (according to the middle chronology)- rightly belongs in the Achaemenid period (c . 500 BC). Heinsohn's claims have the singular advantage of being easily falsified, one of the hallmarks of a sound scientific hypothesis. Jan Sammer accurately summarized the situation in 1988, in a special issue of AEON devoted to Heinsohn's theory: "Heinsohn's is not an abstruse argument ...
