... the historical events and chronology of the Old Testament. Accepted views on the so-called "Sea Peoples" are being re-examined - in particular the idea that they were new arrivals to the Levant at the end of the Late Bronze Age. In the sea-battle above (Ramesses III: Medinet Habu) they are wearing exactly the same kilts as the Egyptian marines. He explained the consequences of his model (which can work equally as well within the accepted timescale for ancient Near Eastern history) first for revised chronology, and then for a catastrophist view of ancient history. It is usually thought that the Philistines arrived in Palestine at the end of the Late Bronze Age (conventionally 1200 BC ...

... added). Diana L. Stein devotes a whole chapter to the Khabur ware of Tell Atchana (Alalakh) ' in her study Khabur Ware and Nuzi Ware: Their origin, Relationship, and Significance' (in Assur, Vol. 4, Issue 1, March 1984, pp. 19ff.). Her focus is not on Egyptian Hyksos period Khabur Ware but on Mesopotamian/Babylonian old-Akkadian Khabur Ware as a model for Alalakh VII pieces: The Khabur Ware reported at Alalakh in level VII concerns one imported beaker with a bichrome decoration of the alternating red and black bands. .. .

673. Reflections [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Review Vol VIII (1986) "Tenth Anniversary Tour Issue" Home | Issue Contents Reflections LETTERS FROM THE PARTICIPANTS OF THE SIS EGYPTIAN TOUR Thermal Memories Whenever I replay the excellent videotape of the Nile Cruise, I feel I should turn on all the heaters and open the oven door to recapture the thermal memories along with those of the other senses. But there were some cool moments too, and these were among the best. Especially memorable were the mornings in Luxor, gliding across the water, nerves torn between a longing for the bed one had reluctantly quitted and the anticipation of another astonishing day. Then, in the equally cool Nile Star lounge, ...
674. Mercury and the Tower of Babel [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... Home | Issue Contents Mercury and the Tower of Babel Hugh Eggleton In a different work I intend to bring out that what is known as the catastrophe of the Tower of Babel (Babylon) was caused by a close passage of Mercury, Nebo of the Babylonians (heard in the names of Nabopolassar and Nebuchadnezzar), or Thoth of the Egyptians (heard in the name Thutmose). (I . Velikovsky, Ramses II and His Time, p. 102) In Genesis, chapter 11, we read how God destroyed the Tower of Babel, associated with the city of Babylon. as its name indicates. Velikovsky believed that Mercury caused this disaster so I have attempted to ...
675. Akhnaten, Aten, and Venus Reconsidered [Journals] [Pensee]
... in their vindictiveness to Aten?(8 ) Could the open temples of Aten have been for nighttime observation and worship?(9 ) And finally, are there any linguistic and cosmological relationships between the name Aten and that of the goddess Athena(10)-herself associated with Venus?(11) REFERENCES 1. "The pragmatic Egyptian Akhnaten was a wonderful reconciler; he was normally able to fit together two apparently conflicting concepts and treat them as different aspects of the same concept." J. Wilson, The Culture of Ancient Egypt (Chicago, 1951), 216; S. Giedion, The Eternal Present, Vol. II (New York, 1964 , ...
676. Velikovsky: The Open Minded Approach [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Earth had been ravaged by global catastrophes caused by planetary interactions within historical times; that these disasters provided the miracles and apocalyptic imagery of the Bible and the inspiration for the cosmologies of the ancient world. Velikovsky culled his reconstruction from the Japanese, Chinese, and Hindu civilisations, the Iranian, Sumerian, Assyrian, Hitto-Chaldean, Israelite, and Egyptian records; the Etruscan, Attic, and Roman theogonies and philosophies; Scandinavian and Icelandic epics, Mayan, Toltec, and Olmec art and legends. ' (1 ) This picture he drew from them was that around 1500 BC the Earth came into disastrous conflict with the planet Venus - then on an elliptical orbit and with a tremendous ...
677. The Stratigraphical Chronology of Ancient Israel [Journals] [Aeon]
... stratigraphically indicated in the archaeological sites of the land. (2 ) According to the same legends, Abraham's people came from Mesopotamia. (21) A sudden impact of Mesopotamian material culture, therefore, should also be indicated in Israel's strata. (3 ) Abraham's legendary sojourn in Egypt (22) should also have left its evidence in Egyptian strata. Do we come across an infiltration of Israelite material culture in Egypt which simultaneously reflects Mesopotamian origins? (4 ) According to the legends, the Abrahamic period ends in some natural catastrophe which, inter alia, levels Sodom and Gomorrah. (23) Signs of this event should be archaeologically evident. (5 ) According to ...
678. Sun, Moon and Sothis by Lynn E. Rose [Journals] [SIS Review]
... $38 (Canada), $40 (other), Kronos Press, 226 Richmond C, Deerfield Beach, Florida 33442-2990, USA. Michael G. Reade Described as A study of calendars and calendar reforms in ancient Egypt', this volume of 339 pages (hardback) is both important and memorable for its confident dating of Manetho's Egyptian Dynasty XII (from Ammenemhet I through Senwosre/Sesostris to Queen Sobeknefru) to 500-331 BC, total duration 169 years (pp. 264 & 269, amongst others). According to Lynn Rose, the reign of Queen Sobeknefru ended with the invasion of Egypt by Alexander of Macedon (331 BC); he also notes that this ...
679. The Hermes Connection [Journals] [Aeon]
... 7th century B.C ., according to the historical reconstruction of Velikovsky. Seti's royal name was taken from the dark god Set, another Saturnian image or avatar, whom Wallis Budge claimed was equated with Hermes/Mercury, (12) although this identification stems from the late Ptolemaic period. Seti's formalized regnal association was with the comparable Egyptian deity Thoth (12a) , who is equated with Hermes. (13) Thus, Velikovsky's historiographic analysis is supported by this association. A comparison of a "dark god" with other ancient attributes pertaining to a bright effulgence presents a duality often encountered in myth. In Roman lore, for example, the Siva-like god of beginnings ...

... these sons' depicts them as acting in concert. A perhaps equally far fetched and, in any case, too isolated, suggestion (following a very important observation' by Peter van der Veen cited in Excursus D) has Labayu's son, Mutbaal (whose name is interpreted as a translation into Canaanite of the name Ishbaal) tell the Egyptian authorities in EA 256 to ask (among others) David (Tadua = the beloved') and Jesse (Yashuya) about the whereabouts of Joab (Ayyab). Some problems with this suggestion are: (i ) EA 256's Ayyab appears to have been based to the north of Mutbaal [1 ]. As a result, ...
