... Abraham, raised doubts regarding his very existence (and the veracity of other Patriarchal and Exodus tales in the Bible); archaeology, invariably confirming the biblical data from the Books of Kings onward, appeared less generous concerning the earlier feats. Was there an Exodus? Since the event is not (so it is generally held) mentioned in Egyptian records, doubt is in fashion. And if it did happen, when? Current view places it in the thirteenth century B.C .; any deviation (even if it comes from the head of a major Near Eastern department) encounters personal abuse. Was there a conquest of Jericho? If you go along with the above ...
492. The 1989 ISIS/SIS Nile Cruise [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... vastness of the Hotel Marriot in Cairo, a little nervous perhaps that they might not find their way out in time to join the cruise ship Nile Rhapsody' the following day for their eagerly awaited journey up the Nile. An early morning call at 7.30am, however, ensured that we all met up for a visit to the Egyptian Museum of Antiquities where we perused the Tutankhamun treasures, followed by a quick view of the Israel' stele, Akhenaton statues and Old Kingdom material before being whisked off to the sanctuary of the Nile Rhapsody', our home for the next ten days. Our main concern, going at that time of year, was that the heat ...

494. Contents: Ages in Chaos by Immanuel Velikovsky [Books]
... April of 1950, Immanuel Velikovsky's first epoch-making book, Worlds In Collision, created a furore all over the world. Now, in Ages In Chaos, he presents another aspect of his startling theory - a unique and radical revision of ancient history. Taking for his starting point the simultaneous physical catastrophes described in the book of Exodus and in Egyptian documents, Dr. Velikovsky reconstructs the political and cultural histories of the nations of the ancient world. His reconstruction poses the question-Are six hundred years missing in Israel's history, or have six hundred ghost years crept into Egyptian history? Documents are collated for each generation over twelve hundred years and the intriguing march over centuries presents itself ...
495. Before the Greeks: Professor Davis's Cretan Decipherments [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... would use the words Minoan Hittite' Velikovsky uses Luvian'. The first difference will be expected by SIS readers. Davis's dates are those of the dominant convention in contemporary archaeology. As James Mellaart states [12]: "Absolute dating of Mycenaean pottery depends not on calibrated C-14 dating, but on the presence of imported wares in datable Egyptian or Syrian contexts, or in less well datable Hittite or Cypriot ones. Ultimately only Egyptian dates are well founded, as the reigns of kings are well established for the Late Bronze Age." Likewise, Donald Easton states [13]: the Mycenaean, Trojan and Hittite sequences are all equally dependent on Egyptian synchronisms. ' As ...
496. Man: The Past, The Present, and the Future [Books]
... and in that country originate some of the earliest records of our present civilization. Egypt escaped the Flood, for at the "dawn" of Mediterranean history the nation appears to be mature, old, and entirely without mythological and heroic ages-as if the country had never known youth. At the time of Menes, the first king, the Egyptians had long been architects, sculptors, and painters. Relatively speaking, the civilization of ancient Egypt, upon its first appearance, was of a higher order tban at any subsequent period of its history, a fact which indicates that it drew its greatness from a fountain higher than itself or at least its equal. The civilization of old ...
497. The Mosaic Calendar and the Sabbath [Journals] [Aeon]
... instruction to Moses. The population of Egypt was subservient to the priestly caste who calculated the calendar or, in somewhat better terminology, controlled the system which allowed the important feast days to occur on the correct cyclical days. So why not a nation which had just spent between 120 and 400 years (the various accepted sojourn lengths) under Egyptian cultural domination? Would not this same infant nation have taken such a system with it into the desert together with many of the devices it had observed working so well under Egyptian priestly hands? Israel commenced its second history with the Exodus. This impressive occurrence welded itself onto the psyche of young Israel. Coupled with the drama of the ...
498. Velikovsky and his Heroes [Articles]
... were these not, the Nazis of the Ancient World? But then, where does the Anti-semitism of those modern Nazis themselves stem from? From what source stemmed the exceptionally virulent virus of Jew-hatred in the 20th century that Velikovsky himself confronted? His own answer was that the Jews were identified with the descendants of the Hyksos. Inaugurated by the Egyptian priest Manetho, an extensive Jew-hating literature followed, and the stories of Manetho were told and retold, and adored by many writers. Hatred of the Hyksos, said Velikovsky, burning in the generations of the Ancient Orient, found a target in the Jews. The Israelites, he went on, endured much suffering from .this distortion ...

500. Ice Cores and Chronology [Journals] [SIS Review]
... before they reached next door Syria. Since the beginnings of archaeology some two hundred years ago, the dating of the sites and the objects found in them has presented a problem. The problem is still with us. A mere forty years ago only three aids were available to the archaeologist: the Bible, the works of Herodotus, and Egyptian King Lists, especially a list compiled by an Egyptian scribe Manetho for the newly arrived Ptolomaic Dynasty. Many of Manetho's Dynasties were imaginary, while others overlap between Upper and Lower Egypt, yet as Sir Alan Gardiner remarks Egyptologists accepted the evidence of Manetho with childlike credulity' [3 ]. Manetho (three versions survive, all different ...
