... mixed race of Arabs who . . . originally came from Northern Asia, India and the Caucasus" ! Here one scarcely knows where to begin: the Arabs are a linguistic, not a racial group; there is no evidence that the Arabs ever centred demographically outside of the Near East; and the Berbers- like their linguistic cousins the Egyptians and the Cushites- are believed always to have lived in northern Africa.(3 ) The most interesting question raised by Van Sertima, I think, is that of the status of the Blacks in early America, especially (though not exclusively) in Olmec Mexico. Did they come primarily as masters of White crews, as independent ...
642. Olympia [Journals] [Kronos]
... , but it was not born in either place. "Mycenaean" vessels can be recognized in the tribute of the Keftiu as depicted in the tomb of Rekhmire, the vizier of Thutmose III, but Keftiu, Dorpfeld claimed, is not Crete, as is often asserted,(6 ) and the Canopus Decree of -238, preserved in Egyptian and Greek, supposedly proves that it was the name for the off-shore islands on which Sidon and Tyre were built.(7 ) The archaeological evidence of the contemporaneity of the geometric and Mycenaean ware and of all other products of these two cultures, and even of the partial precedence of the geometric ware, was the basic issue of ...
643. Palestinian Archaeology and a Ramesses VI-Shishak Identification; Further Observations [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... to the period of the Monarchy rather than to the tribally oriented period of the Judges. A recent tightening up of Dynasties 19/20 transitional chronology would require any intervention in Egypt by Philistines allied with David to be in favor of Tausert/Bey or Amenmesses (with Manetho's viewpoint reflecting that of their successful foes). Evidence for subsequent Egyptian royal chronology suggests (unless Israelite chronology is currently set slightly low) that the Egyptian chronology implied in the article (page 26) may need to be raised somewhat- especially (cf. preceding paragraph) for the Dynasty 20 period. If the earliest "Israelite settlement" was not until after the reign of Ramesses III (cf ...
644. The Darkness, Part 1 Venus Ch.2 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... very slight visibility, but for the rest (three days) there was no visibility at all. It should be kept in mind that, as in the case I have already discussed, a day and a night of darkness or light can be described as one day or as two days. That both sources, the Hebrew and the Egyptian, refer to the same event can be established by another means also. Following the prolonged darkness and the hurricane, the pharaoh, according to the hieroglyphic text of the shrine, pursued the "evil-doers" to "the place called Pi-Khiroti." The same place is mentioned in Exodus 14:9 : "But the Egyptian pursued ...
645. Ancient History Study Group Report on meeting of 6th March 1999 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... natural events occur within such an unnaturally short period of time - and if the events were supposed to be natural', why were not the more common natural disasters, such as a high Nile flood, destruction of buildings by fire, earthquakes, or even a plague of a killer disease, brought down upon the heads of the offending Egyptians? My hidden agenda for this meeting was therefore to try to find out the extent of the beliefs of those attending, including whether or not they believed in the literal truth of the Biblical narrative. I had armed with myself with an overhead projector together with slides for each of the events, listing the main parameters concerning each one ...
646. Pallas Athene, Part 1 Venus Ch.9 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... among the gods or goddesses did not exist from the beginning, but was born into the family. The mythologies of all peoples concern themselves with the birth only of Venus, not with that of Jupiter, Mars, or Saturn. Jupiter is described as heir to Saturn, but his birth is not a mythological subject. Horus of the Egyptians and Vishnu, born of Shiva, of the Hindus, were such newborn deities. Horus battled in the sky with the monster-serpent Seth; so did Vishnu. In Greece the goddess who suddenly appeared in the sky was Pallas Athene. She sprang from the head of Zeus-Jupiter. In another legend she was the daughter of a monster, ...
647. Recent Developments in Near Eastern Archaeology [Journals] [SIS Review]
... , M Balmuth & R Tykot (eds), Oxbow books, Oxford 1998. Chapter 7 (pp. 29-43) is Mediterranean Chronology in Crisis' by P James, N Kokkinos and I Thorpe. It ranges slightly more widely than the title of the volume and is divided into the following sections: an introduction, Cypro-Phoenician Horizon, Egyptian Third Intermediate Period, Central Mediterranean Chronology, Radiocarbon Dating of the Aegean, Dendrochronological Prospects and Conclusion. Some of the material reiterates that already published in Centuries, some new points are made, and there are some replies to critics. One item from the introductory section is the find of a Greek Late Proto-Geometric krater in a sealed archaeological ...
648. The Pyramid Age [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... exist (or hardly so). Emmet begins on a premise too: he has decided Herodotus was correct in placing the pyramid builders of Dynasty 4 shortly preceding Shabaka and Dynasty 25, one result of which is to identify Dynasty 5 as the same as Dynasty 25. Readers may query why a Greek tourist should be more trustworthy than an Egyptian (Manetho). In II:126 Herodotus claims Cheops and Chephren were hated so much by the Egyptians they weren't willing to mention their names or deeds. He claims Cheops shut up all the temples of Egypt and forbade sacrifice within them, and he appointed a large labour force to quarry stone and transport it etc. This seems ...

650. KA [Books]
... , Egypt, Mesopotamia, the Danube Basin: indeed all are implicated. Many pages of the present work suggest such a theory. A reading of the chapter on "Ka" will let one understand what is meant here. It will explain, too, why the short title of "Ka" is given the book: this favorite Egyptian monosyllable penetrates Greek and other languages as well; it testifies, not so much on behalf of Egyptian chronological precedence, as for an ecumenical, possibly even hologenetic development of religious and thence all language of the ancient world.
