... wrote: "A new city, bearing the king's name, was erected."1 Akhet and Akhn are derivatives of the same root, and Aton (Aten) is the same in both the name of the king and that of his capital. Herodotus rendered the names Akhnaton and Akhet-Aton as Anysis, one of the better transliterations of Egyptian names by Greek authors. The exact reading of the name is still a matter of surmise and Maspero, for instance, read the name of the king as Khuniatonu. In an ancient Greek version of the legend an island of dunes was the place of Oedipus' exile;2 this is not too different from a marshland, place ...
432. The Ring About The Earth at 2300 BC [Journals] [SIS Review]
... the fourteenth century BC, the myths recorded on them may go much further back, some even to the turn of the third to the second millennium BC. ' Egypt provides clear dating of relevant mythological material to the 2300 BC time period. According to Anthes, a principal scholar in the field [5 ]: The basic concepts of Egyptian mythology were already established about 2200 BC, and the succeeding changes represented an increase in variations and combinations rather than alterations of the concepts. ' He established this date by a reference to the appearance of this mythology in the Pyramid Texts between 2300BC and 2200BC [6 ] at the end of the 5th Dynasty of the Old Kingdom. ...
433. Amenophis, Osarsiph and Arzu. More on the Third Intermediate Period of Egypt [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... years. Since Osarsiph's rebellion succeeded, he must have become king, and I would therefore identify him as Siptah. Arzu the Asiatic The Great Harris Papyrus records the "empty years when Arzu an Asiatic was with them as chief", referring to this time. Who was this so-called "Syrian condottiere"? He cannot have been the Egyptian Osarsiph, so he must have been the leader of the shepherds of Jerusalem. Which "chief", i.e . king, ruled Jerusalem at this time, with a 200,000-strong army and a name resembling Arzu? The Bible speaks of him. His name was Azariah, better known as Uzziah, king of Judah ...
434. Shishak - Ramesses II or Ramesses III? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... : SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 1994 (Vol XVI) (Oct 1995) Home | Issue Contents Shishak - Ramesses II or Ramesses III?by Robert M. Porter The identification of Pharaoh Shishak (I Kings 11:40, 14:25, II Chronicles 12) at the time of Solomon and Rehoboam is a key to linking Egyptian chronology to the accepted dating of Israel (and hence also of Assyria) from c.925 BC onwards. The conventional identification of Shishak as Shoshenq I, founder of the 22nd Dynasty, is now the basis for the dating of the Egyptian New Kingdom (following the demise of the New Kingdom Sothic dates) and of the early ...

436. The el-Amarna Letters and the New Chronology [Journals] [SIS Review]
... chance find, made by a local peasant woman, which, although of insignificant monetary value, provided scholarship with one of its most valued prizes - a diplomatic archive of letters from Man's distant past. The letters were to prove of considerable interest because their contents greatly increased our knowledge of political events during one of the most intriguing eras in Egyptian history - the late 18th Dynasty. The hundreds of small baked-clay tablets, found heaped together just below the surface of the sand and powdered mud brick, subsequently became known as the el-Amarna Letters' and are now housed predominantly in the Berlin Museum, the Museum of Egyptian Antiquities in Cairo and British Museum. Soon after the discovery, ...

438. The Cosmic Double Helix [Journals] [Aeon]
... whose face is composed of two opposing serpent heads. Macrobius left a detailed report of the caduceus, arguing that it derived from Egypt, that it represented the sun, and that the serpents were male and female: "Another clear proof that it is the sun that we worship under the name of Mercury is the caduceus, which the Egyptians have designed as the sacred staff of Mercury. It shows a pair of serpents, male and female, intertwined; the middle parts of the serpents' coils are joined together as in a knot, called the knot of Hercules; their upper parts are bent into a circle and complete the circle as they meet in a kiss; ...
439. 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. ...
440. 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 ...
