... From: SIS Review Vol II No 3 (1977/78) "From Exodus to Akhnaton" Home | Issue Contents A Chart to Illustrate the Conquest of Canaan John Bimson Dr Bimson studied at the Department of Biblical Studies, Sheffield University, where he completed his doctorate thesis dealing with Hebrew chronology with special reference to the dating of the Exodus. He has contributed earlier articles to the S.I .S . Review in this area, and is currently continuing his research into the stratigraphy and chronology of ancient Palestine. It is now generally agreed among Biblical scholars that the Israelite Conquest of Canaan under Joshua took place towards the end of the Late Bronze Age, in ...
232. L'Énigme de la Structure Elliptique [Journals] [SIS Review]
... various odds and ends, vast quantities of broken jars (for which see the third article) and amongst the limestone fragments below the brick paved base of the pit were a couple with traces of writing - one with a bit of cartouche but nothing readable inside it. The pottery article conclusions (pp. 186-7) suggest a fairly restricted date range for the vast quantity of pots found in the pit, from late Shoshenq III (reigned OC 825-773 BC; NC 771-733) to slightly post Shoshenq V (OC 767-730; NC 713-677). OC dates are taken from Kitchen and NC from Rohl' s Test of Time modified to about 10 years earlier. Comparing recent work ...
233. Mysterious Ancient America, by Paul Devereux (Book review) [Journals] [SIS Review]
... were designed to penetrate the thick hides of mammoths and have been found all over North and Central America, even in a region adjacent to the Bering Strait. Clovis points are distinctive and easily recognised. They prove that humans were in the Americas before the Pleistocene Ice Age came to an end. However, a mystery remains, as the dates for all the Clovis artefacts fall within a thousand years or so of each other, at around 9500 BC. This raises serious questions about how the Clovis people could have migrated southwards so quickly from the Bering land-bridge, which has generally been supposed to have provided their access route into the Americas. If this model is correct, why ...
234. Some Notes on Parker's "Sothic Dating" [Journals] [Kronos]
... From: Kronos Vol. VI No. 1 (Fall 1980) Home | Issue Contents Some Notes on Parker's "Sothic Dating"Shane H. Mage 1. The main problem posed by the Illahun papyrus is its implication of a Middle Kingdom 365-day Civil Year and a lunar cycle with a month exactly equal to its present value. However, in order to establish this equality, Parker had to "correct" one of the dates given ( The Calendars of Ancient Egypt , p. 28 sec. 136 and p. 67 333). Although the proposed emendation is of only one day, nevertheless, the necessity of any emendation at all raises the possibility of error ...
235. The Hyksos Pyramid Builders [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... progress of Heinsohn's research made him realize that first millennium B.C . history was not only duplicated in the second millennium, as Velikovsky believed, but also triplicated in the third millennium. Yet this veritable `comedy of errors' had a rationale, and followed its own impeccable internal logic. Indeed it was constructed upon three quite separate dating blueprints. Thus, the history of the first millennium, which is known solely through the Classical and Hellenistic writers, was dated according to these sources. The history of the second millennium, however, was supplied by cross-referencing with Egyptian hieroglyphic material, and this chronology is based solely on these sources, which are dated according to Borchart's ...
236. Assyria, Karduniash, Babylon: A Rational chronology [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... From: Catastrophism and Ancient History V:2 (July 1983) Home | Issue Contents Assyria, Karduniash, Babylon: A Rational chronology Barry Page A revised chronology must be a complete revised chronology. It must solve the issue of all the countries under chronological debate and comprehensively realign all the dates and data at hand. To work out the revision of the chronology of Egypt, Israel, Hatti, and Greece withoutaligning Assyria, Karduniash, and Babylon as well, is not achieving substantial conclusions that can withstand scholarly criticism With relative ease the chronologies of Egypt, Hatti, and Greece fall in place with approximately 500-year adjustments made to the chronological scheme; The Egyptian New Kingdom ...
237. The Latecoming Olduvai Gorge [Books] [de Grazia books]
... Having gone this far, I expect that one day they will go farther and will have to claim that all along the Rift, the hominid sites, "oldest" in the world, must be brought up to the Holocene, perhaps only 14,000 years ago. Earlier in the same year, I had been considering the radiometric datings along the Rift and wrote in my journal of my doubts: March 10, 1976; Bones of humans are destroyed by weathering, animals, and disasters - fire, flood, hurricane. Bones are preserved by burial in dry tombs or sand, and by dry ash or tuff at low heat. ? All Rift burials and findings ...
238. Rehabilitation Of Censorinus [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... From: SIS Chronology and Catastrophism Workshop 1986 No 2 (Feb 1987) Home | Issue Contents Rehabilitation Of Censorinus by G.W . van Oosterhout Courville's paper "Limitations of astronomical dating methods"(1 ) only recently came to my attention. The author's conclusion that Censorinus' text on the heliacal rising of Sirius is worthless surprised me extraordinarily and I could not believe that this conclusion is correct. It is not attractive to criticise a colleague but as the error apparently is spreading,(2 ) I cannot let it pass without comment. That the conclusion is incorrect becomes evident if we compare Courville's translation with the Latin original. Censorinus says:(3 ) " ...
239. Focus [Journals] [SIS Review]
... with a discussion of the different reconstructions of such catastrophic events, drawing special attention to the indications that the poles of the earth had shifted or reversed (as in Peter Warlow's model), which could provide a single mechanism for the widespread destruction of ancient societies by earthquakes, volcanic activity and flooding. The second talk, "Re-assessing the Date of the Copper Mines in the Arabah" was by DR JOHN BIMSON, a Biblical archaeologist whose important contributions to the study of the revised chronology in this field are well known to the readers of the Review. He began his talk by explaining that its inspiration came initially from an article by Israeli scholar Dr Eva Danelius (" The ...
240. On the Length of Reigns of the Sumerian Kings [Journals] [SIS Review]
... (before the flood, after the flood, and early historical). These units are derived from what is known of the languages, number systems and customs of those eras. Formulae are presented for converting the figures given into [modern] years and are applied to both Sumerian king list and Old Testament figures. Finally, these new dates are combined with other known figures to propose a new date for the flood. Much has been accomplished in recent years to fill the gaps in the reigns of the Sumerian kings [1 ]. Beginning with the year 2550 BC there is an ever growing profusion of data available to put the framework of time on a solid foundation. ...
