... areas of the Near East cannot be as old as the published dates have led the historians to believe. Instead, they consistently point to a significantly shortened chronology which, as with the erosion on the Sphinx, etc., and astronomical dating, correlate with and corroborate a considerably shorter chronology. Pottery dating based on the great trunk of Egyptian history with which all other ancient nations were forced into agreement, is based on a monumental failure. The pottery of Old Kingdom Abydos that Petrie placed in the fourth, and which present-day historians place in the third millennium B.C ., is undeniably Mycenaean, Aegean, and Syrian pottery of the first millennium B.C . ...
682. Jericho [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... old ally Egypt, first cemented in Jeroboam's time. This would be an effective counterpart to the alliance Syria made with Judah. As the strength of Judah compared with Samaria reached a climax after Jehoshophat defeated the Moabites and Ammonites, it would be natural for the kings of Samaria, Ahab and then Ahaziah, to increase their contacts with the Egyptians as an insurance policy, and we would expect and hope to see evidence of such a link in the archaeology of Jericho soon after its rebuilding by Hiel. Within 30 years, however, Shalmaneser III of Assyria was receiving tributes from King Jehu and the Egyptian influence was ended in the Northern Kingdom. The Archaeology of Jericho In 1907 ...
683. Early History of the Israelite People: Biblical Fundamentalism in History (I) [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... nor a potsherd, so we are taught after 150 years of excavations, has ever come from -550 to -330 Akhaemened Assyria. This is because pre-Hellenistic strata, not only in Assyria but also in Thompson's Galilee, received biblical dates instead of the Greek ones. Let us continue checking his "independent" dates. When Thompson speaks of "Egyptian forces...of the [12th] century" reaching the Levant, (14) he applies Egyptological, so-called Sothic, chronology which Egyptologists themselves abandoned almost a decade ago as pseudoastronomical. (15) The opening lecture of the 4th International Congress of Egyptology in 1985, at Munich, was exclusively devoted to the demolition and ...
684. The Dark Age Gap: An Open Letter to John Bimson, Peter James and David Rohl [Journals] [SIS Review]
... , Peter James and David Rohl from Emmet Sweeney In the early 1980's, a number of British scholars of the Velikovskian movement broke with Velikovsky's proposed reconstruction of history as presented in the Ages in Chaos series. Most prominent among these were Peter James and John Bimson. [See editorial note]. Velikovsky had suggested reducing the age of the Egyptian 18th Dynasty by a full five centuries, bringing the great pharaohs of that time down into the first millennium, where they were shown to interact with the early kings of Israel. Thus, Ahmose (normally dated to c. 1540 BC), who expelled the Hyksos from Egypt, was claimed to have been contemporary with Saul and ...
685. Notes Concerning the "Outline of the 1st Millennium B.C. Following Immanuel Velikovsky's Reconstruction of Ancient History" [Journals] [Pensee]
... . In the Ages in Chaos series, Velikovsky has rewritten the history of the ancient Middle East from the end of the Middle Kingdom of Egypt circa 1450 B.C . to the death of Alexander in 323 B.C . Volume I describes first the period of Hyksos domination circa 1450-1000 B.C . and then the period of Egyptian supremacy circa 1000-830 B.C ., during which the 18th Dynasty of Egypt and the United Kingdom of David and Solomon rose to power and glory simultaneously, then Thutmose III extended Egyptian hegemony over neighboring Palestine, and finally Egyptian power waned under the excesses of the El Amarna pharaohs and the rising might of Shalmanasser III of Assyria. ...
686. The Floods Of Deucalion And Ogyges, Part 1 Venus Ch.7 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... He further expressed his belief in the coincidence of the catastrophe of Ogyges and the one that occurred in Egypt in the days of the Exodus in the following words: "The Passover and the Exodus of the Hebrews from Egypt took place, and also in Attica the flood of Ogygus. And that is according to reason. For when the Egyptians were being smitten in the anger of God with hail and storms, it was only to be expected that certain parts of the earth should suffer with them."(19) Eusebius placed the Flood of Deucalion and the conflagration of Phaėthon in the fifty-second year of Moses' life.(20) Augustine also synchronized the Flood of ...
687. Velikovsky At Princeton [Journals] [Pensee]
... finally persuaded him to cooperate. He walked among the library stacks, pulling a book from here and there off the shelves. It was all in the film's script. "How do I make out as an actor?" he inquired during a pause in the filming. When Gibson asked him to open up a large volume of colorful Egyptian hieroglyphics, explaining that "the colors in the documents will show up very well in the film," Velikovsky protested again: "People will say that I pretended that I read hieroglyphics, but I don't. What I actually am doing is looking at the images of Osiris and Isis (two Egyptian gods) depicted on these pages ...
688. Discussion [Journals] [Aeon]
... the horses and tanks appear in the same scenes. (2 ) As to the introduction of the scimitar by the Hyksos, I have no problem with that. In my "Road to Iron" in Catastrophism and Ancient History 4:2 , I specifically note that iron-smelting technology was available from the Middle Bronze onwards, but that the Egyptians did not take advantage of it because of their deep-seated cultural and religious taboos against the use of iron, stemming back to the meteorite bombardments at the time of the Exodus. I specifically noted then that the Israelites did not share this iron taboo. That article was written before I had come to the conclusion that the Israelites were the ...
689. Venus, Mars ... and Saturn [Journals] [SIS Review]
... endless series of tests, many of which are immediately obvious given the basic outlines of the model. In accordance with our interpretation of the Ra-sign, for example, and remembering Venus' role as a mother goddess, it follows that the eye of Ra must be identified with the mother goddess - and so it is that nearly every ancient Egyptian goddess is explicitly described as the Eye of Ra'. Rundle Clark observed: The Eye is the commonest symbol in Egyptian thought and the strangest to us...One fact does stand out - the Egyptian Eye was always a symbol for the Great Goddess, whatever name she may have had in any particular instance'. [ ...
690. On Comets and Kings [Journals] [Aeon]
... commemorated the expulsion of Venus from Saturn in two ways: the first as the disembodiment of Quetzalcoatl's "heart-soul", and the second as the removal of the sun-god's eye. (115) The Death of Osiris The transfiguration of Quetzalcoatl has numerous parallels throughout the ancient world. (116) None, perhaps, is as striking as the Egyptian account of the death of Osiris. The Egyptian legends associated with Osiris share many points of resemblance with the Mesoamerican legends of Quetzalcoatl. Like Quetzalcoatl, Osiris was represented as an ancient sun-god who lived on earth as a primeval king. Among his numerous accomplishments are included the introduction of the first laws, religious rites, and system of ...
