... | Issue Contents INTERACTION Rejoinder to Dirkzwager Lester J. Mitcham The Interaction section of C&AH, VI:1 contained a brief letter from Arie Dirkzwager entitled, "Expanding the End of Assyrian History." In reference to some calculations he had made some years ago- actually his unpublished manuscript, "From Piankhy to Nebuchadnezzar- Some Dates"- Dr. Dirkzwager offers a date of 703 for the accession of Taharqa, and advises that, as a result, he has to date Psammetichus I and the 26th Dynasty some 13 or 14 years earlier than the orthodox chronology. As noted by Dirkzwager, Taharqa has connections with Assyria. It is, however, the effect ...
112. The Periodic Cyclicism Of Ancient Catastrophes [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... CONTENTS From: The Velikovskian Vol. V, No. 1 THE PERIODIC CYCLICISM OF ANCIENT CATASTROPHES By Donald W. Patten THE PERIODIC CYCLES OF ANCIENT PLANETARY CATASTROPHISM "Berossus, interpreter of Belus, affirms that the whole issue is brought about by the course of the planets. So positive is he on the point that he assigns a definite date both for the Conflagration and the Deluge. All that the Earth inherits will, he assures us, be consigned to flame when the planets WHICH NOW MOVE IN DIFFERENT ORBITS, all assemble in Cancer, so arranged in one row that a straight line may pass through their spheres. When the same gathering takes place in Capricorn, then ...
113. Forum: Do the Early Middle Ages Survive Only as a Sacred Cow? C&C Review 2002:1 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... for such a study because it contains both Roman and non-Roman areas and has been extensively excavated. The first result is that there are around 2000 localities mentioned in written sources. Only just over 100 have any remains that scholars call Carolingian, only some 5 per cent. When these attributions are examined, it turns out that most of the dates are derived from written documents and not from archaeological evidence. There remain 5 to 7 localities (i .e . 2-4 per thousand) that are worth discussing. When they are studied critically, we soon reduce that number to zero. What is particularly interesting is that the 15 palaces of the Dukes of Bavaria (the Agilolfing family ...
114. Did the Sumerians and the Akkadians Ever Exist? [Journals] [Aeon]
... the Early Dynastic strata are often found directly underneath the so-called neo-Babylonian levels from the middle of the first millennium BCE. The magnificent "Sumerian" vassal graves of the so-called Royal Cemetery at Ur, which according to stratigraphy must be placed at the end of the early dynastic period, have an uncanny resemblance to the graves of the Scythian princes dated 1500 years later. The comparative study of the civilizations of ancient southern Mesopotamia and ancient China reveals considerable parallels with regard to developments in social structure, technological skills, and religious practices. Yet the stratigraphically well-dated Chinese civilization emerges some 1500 years after the birth of the early dynastic civilization in "Sumer." IV Ca. 2350 BCE ...
115. Palestinian Archaeology and a Ramesses VI-Shishak Identification [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... when, in Israelite terms, should such a post-Joshua development occur? On the accepted Egyptian chronology, this would have to be mid-Judges. But if this settling down reflects improved security conditions (e .g . Calloway 1982:75-"small, unfortified villages implying that nobody contested their claims to the land"), such a date would seem to be no more appropriate than the early-Judges setting that would follow from a late LB Exodus. With a Ramesses VI-Shishak, on the other hand, the beginning of this phase would fall within the reign of Saul or early in the reign of David. (On the initial date of the newly discovered period of LB/ ...
116. A Re-examination of the Sothic Chronology of Egypt [Journals] [Kronos]
... For many years now we have accepted and incorporated the astronomical chronology of Egypt into our histories of the ancient Near East. It is wise, however, to be aware of the potential error in the interpretations and conclusions of the past and the possibility that realignment may be necessary. We still do not possess a final and unquestionable Egyptian Sothic dated historical framework. Recently, Read challenged the traditionally held astronomical chronology of the Eighteenth Dynasty (JNES 29 [1970] ). A re-examination of the evidence is in order before our conception of an absolutely established and near perfect chronology influences our judgment of different possibilities. Certain ambiguous and problematic issues, the solutions of which are vital to ...

118. New Archaeological Dates for the Israelite Conquest Part II [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... From: Catastrophism and Ancient History X:2 (July 1988) Home | Issue Contents New Archaeological Dates for the Israelite Conquest Part II Proposals for an MB IIC Conquest William H. Stiebing, Jr.The two most comprehensive cultural breaks in Palestinian archaeology occur at the end of the Early Bronze III Age and at the end of Middle Bronze I. Virtually every aspect of culture changed at these times- pottery styles, types of metal tools and weapons, burial practices, building styles, social organization, and general life style. But as we have seen in a previous article, [1 ] neither of these times of radical cultural change was likely to have marked ...
119. Assyria and the End of the Late Bronze Age [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... and the other Late Bronze Age centres of Palestine, Syria, Anatolia and Cyprus were destroyed at the same time. The Hittite archives from Boghazköi appear to describe defence preparations, as if an invasion was imminent, and then are silent. In Greece, too, archaeology has revealed widespread siege preparations at this time. What was happening? Dated at 1200 BC on the conventional chronology, this period comes down to the eighth century in Velikovsky's revision. However, Velikovsky himself then confuses the issue anew by dating the 19th Dynasty of Egypt and the high period of the Hittite Empire to the time of Nebuchadnezzar and the Neo-Babylonians, while identifying Hatti with Babylon. But, if this ...
120. Recent Developments in Near Eastern Archaeology [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 2001:1 (Apr 2001) Home | Issue Contents Recent Developments in Near Eastern Archaeology R. M. Porter A number of interesting finds have been reported in the press such as the world's oldest city in Syria, carbon dated to c. 6000 BC, and a submerged village on an early shoreline of the Black Sea c. 5000 BC. The few items reported below, although less exciting, are mainly relevant to Late Bronze and Iron Age chronology. Carbon Dating and the Aegean Another leading Aegean scholar has criticised the effects of carbon dating on Aegean chronology. Sinclair Hood writing in Aegaeum 20 (1999, pp. 381-6 ...
