... be better solved by the "Queen of Sheba/Hatshepsut" hypothesis than by any other theory. 1. "To a mare among Pharaoh's cavalry would I compare you, my darling." (1 :9 ) This direct reference to Egypt seems strange if applied to an Israelite girl, but quite natural if the beloved is an Egyptian. 2. "Black am I and beautiful, O Jerusalem girls, like the tents of Qedar, like the pavilions of Salmah. Stare not at me that I am swart, that the sun has blackened me." (1 :6 ) The dark complexion of the female beloved, making her conspicuous among the "daughters ...
442. On the Placement of Haremhab: A Critique of Gammon [Journals] [Kronos]
... From: Kronos Vol. V No. 3 (Spring 1980) Home | Issue Contents On the Placement of Haremhab: A Critique of Gammon Dominick A. Carlucci A recent issue of the SIS Review (III:2 ) contained an article by Geoffrey Gammon entitled "The Place of Horemheb in Egyptian History". In that article, Gammon put forth a case for linking Haremhab to the end of the Eighteenth Dynasty, assigning him an absolute date of ca. 822-814 B.C . Velikovsky, on the other hand, has dated Haremhab to the years 702-687 B.C . while conventional dating places Haremhab in the latter part of the fourteenth century B.C ...
443. Night of the Gods: Axis Myths [Books]
... name was taboo) an alias of Cybele. Fauna also meant good, and thus of course, being connected with fauere to be propitious, implied good fortune, which gives it a desired conjection with the central lucky emblems. Faunus it was said became a serpent in his relations with Fauria,1 which gives us a connection with the Egyptian Ara serpent. The changing of Picus into a picus-bird, a pie, is a muddling of words, favoured by the archaic conditions that have brought peck and beak from the same root as pike. It is odd that there is a similar contact-not to call it confusion- which means both a weapon and a bird. Dr. ...
444. The Cosmic Winter by Victor Clube and Bill Napier [Journals] [SIS Review]
... else in Worlds in Collision is perfectly consistent with Serpent' and Winter' - in so far as they are consistent with each other... In the Preface to Worlds in Collision Velikovsky wrote: "On one point alone, not necessarily decisive for the theory of cosmic catastrophism, I borrow credence: I use a synchronical scale of Egyptian and Hebrew histories which is not orthodox." Crudely, he excised half a millennium of supposedly false (or, more subtly, repeated) events from Egyptian history. Many would regard this as his most important insight. The results were enthusiastically adopted in Serpent', often over-enthusiastically (see Newgrosh [8 ]) . In Winter ...
445. Three Views of Heinsohn's Chronology [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... , a few lines might be appropriate. "During the -18th and -17th century the inhabitants of Palestine used two different systems of writing which both came from abroad. In the North (and later also in the South) we find Mesopotamian cuneiform. The language written was Akkadian. In the South, in Palestine as well as in Byblos Egyptian hieroglyphs dominated. First attempts to simplify the complicated systems of writing and adjust them to local dialects of our region already began at the end of the Middle Bronze Age [ -16th century: G.H .] . The few proto-Canaanite inscriptions found in Palestine like on a sword blade of Lachish, are clear witnesses for this process ...
446. Bronze Age Destructions in the Near East [Journals] [SIS Review]
... this paper as Late Ugarit III-I, Middle Ugarit III-I and early Ugarit III-I. Schaeffer found that ancient Ugarit was finally destroyed and then abandoned at the end of the Late Bronze Age. The last occupation level (Late Ugarit III), which had been covered by a layer of debris, contained Late Helladic (Mycenaean), Cypriote and Egyptian XIXth-Dynasty artifacts associated with the end of the Late Bronze Age at other sites. Immediately below Late Ugarit III was another destruction level. The buildings uncovered in the stratum underneath - Late Ugarit II - bore traces of fire and destruction, while many of their walls had crumbled and cracked. Schaeffer established that the damage had been caused by ...

... ., J. H. Breasted: A History of Egypt [London, 1920], pp. 510, 570-1). 3. How is it that the pyramid builders made frequent use of iron tools - much more so, for example, than the 18th Dynasty? (see H. Garland and C. Bannister: Ancient Egyptian Metallurgy [1927]). 4. Can Rohl explain the fact that Egypt of the Pyramid Age was well acquainted with the seagoing Phoenicians - so much so that the Egyptian name for a seagoing ship at the time was kbnwt' - Byblos boat'? 5. How is it that Old Kingdom material is frequently found, in ...
448. The Blind Seer. Part 1 (Oedipus and Akhnaton) [Velikovsky]
... the oracle of Delphi was also called on to reveal the truth, and through these two, the priestly Pythia of Delphi and the blind seer, the gods let the mortals know their fate-more properly, their doom. In the days of Amenhotep III and Akhnaton there lived in Egypt a man who was regarded as holy and as the wisest Egyptian, Amenhotep, son of Hapu, a seer and not a priest. After his death he was deified. Only one other person, Imhotep, not of royal status, and in a much earlier age, that of the Old Kingdom, was ever deified in Egypt. The autobiography of Amenhotep, son of Hapu, is so ...

... teleport.com)- EDITOR'S NOTE: The following continues David Talbott's introductory comments on the "Saturn theory." New readers are referred to earlier installments in issues of THOTH posted on the Kronia website (address listed at the end of this newsletter). Go to the Thoth page and click on the image of "Thoth: the Egyptian God of Knowledge" to access the back issues.- Our next step is particularly vital because it will bring us to the threshold of a reconstruction, a concrete way to begin re-envisioning the past. In any investigation of the ancient sun god you will inevitably run into a theme of profound influence on ancient thought: You will confront ...
450. The Genesis of Israel and Egypt by Emmett Sweeney [Journals] [SIS Review]
... 350 6) Summary The book The Genesis of Israel and Egypt was introduced and summarised by its author, Emmett Sweeney, in C&CR 1996:2 [1 ], so my own summary of it will be fairly brief. The introduction sets the scene, citing the repeated failure of historians through the ages to identify, from Egyptian hieroglyphic sources, Biblical characters who were associated with Egypt. Thus the giants among the ancient Hebrews, such as Abraham, Joseph and Moses, are now considered either to be legendary characters, or to be too insignificant to warrant a mention in extant Egyptian annals. Attempts to find archaeological proof' for the existence of such characters receives ...
