... at all. This non-correlation is also observed at Byrd Station; see Herron, Langway, and Brugger, op. cit., page 29: "In the Byrd Station ice core the bubbles disappear very near the climatic boundary, at the same depth that the ice undergoes a significant textural change. In the Camp Century ice core the stratigraphic log indicates that air bubbles disappear between 1100 and 1165 meters, which is also near the climatic transition..." As we have seen, this does correspond to what we took to be the bottom of the Camp Century fracture zone at about 1150 meters. Both in the Dye 3 core and in the Byrd Station core, ...
182. The Nature of the Historical Record [Journals] [SIS Review]
... casemate walls and chambered gates of the Iron Age cities of Gezer, Hazor and Megiddo were built at about the same time. Similarly, the introduction into Palestine of the so-called "bichrome" ware is associated with the beginning of the Late Bronze Age in Palestine. Over a long period, the excavation of numerous sites, the use of stratigraphical methods and the comparative analysis of the finds made have enabled archaeologists to construct the framework of Early, Middle and Late Bronze, and Iron Ages, with their numerous sub-divisions, on which the comparative chronology of the Near East and Aegean in the last 3000 years BC is largely based. It is highly significant that, whereas the historical ...

184. Catastrophism and Evolution [Articles]
... rather it speaks of abrupt changes of environment, of extinctions and/or repopulations with new species (16). The history of the Earth has been divided into eras, these subdivided into periods and further into epochs, each characterised by its unique flora and fauna, as judged by the fossil record. It was subsequently to emerge that stratigraphic characteristics were not absolutely identical in every part of the world. Nevertheless the early investigations in Europe revealed clear-cut boundaries between the layers of rock used as the basis for classification. Furthermore, the strata themselves were found not to lie flat, one above the other, but to show unmistakable signs of compression and shear, collapse and uplift ...
185. Society News [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... proposed bringing the end of the Kassite dynasty down from 1160 to 760 and this would considerably alter the alignments on Tony Rees' chart. Gunnar Heinsohn added that he equates Gulkishar with Alexander the Great. Then Gunnar Heinsohn read an addendum to his Nottingham paper. This proved to be the main item, with Gunnar forcefully reiterating his theory that stratigraphy and not history based on false premises should dictate the chronology. He concentrated on Assyria and Cappadocia. Stratigraphy yields four layers before that of Hellenism at 330 BC: the Persian Empire from -540, the Medish Empire -620, Ninos Assyria -750 and Early Assyria -1150. These hold good in Assyria, Armenia, Cappadocia and the Indus Valley ...
186. A Criticism of the Revised Chronology [Journals] [Pensee]
... The appearance of this Mitannian Ware is associated with a great increase in the number of personal names in the Hurrian language at Alalakh and in northern Mesopotamia (19). The introduction of Mitannian Ware and the influx of great numbers of Hurrians into Mesopotamia and Syria-Palestine can therefore be correlated with the beginning of the Palestinian Late Bronze Age, and stratigraphical evidence from numerous sites makes it certain that this phase is far earlier than the Iron Age II (which has already been shown to correlate with the divided monarchy and the Assyrian Empire of the eighth seventh centuries B.C . Egyptian documents begin using certain Hurrian and Indo-Aryan terms connected with chariot warfare for the first time early in the ...
187. A Chart to Illustrate the Conquest of Canaan [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Conquest of Canaan John Bimson Dr Bimson studied at the Department of Biblical Studies, Sheffield University, where he completed his doctorate thesis dealing with Hebrew chronology with special reference to the dating of the Exodus. He has contributed earlier articles to the S.I .S . Review in this area, and is currently continuing his research into the stratigraphy and chronology of ancient Palestine. It is now generally agreed among Biblical scholars that the Israelite Conquest of Canaan under Joshua took place towards the end of the Late Bronze Age, in the second half of the 13th century BC, and it is held that archaeological evidence supports this date. In a previous article (SISR I:3 ...
188. Introduction to the Proceedings [Journals] [SIS Review]
... did we see? At Mycenae, Tiryns, Troy, Ugarit and Alalakh, we found numerous 500-700 year problems for the excavators and for those trying to trace the development of artistic and architectural types. We have examined palaces, temples, tombs, pots, pins, carved slabs, bowls, figurines, etc. We have come across stratigraphical sections that do not conform to the expected and accepted sequence of events. Everywhere we found unanswered questions, perplexing problems, and always these involved 500-700 years. .. . The number of 500-700 year problems studied by this writer is quite large, and the more he reads, the greater the number swells. No ad hoc theory ...
189. Calibrated Radiocarbon and the 'Methodological Fault-Line' [Journals] [SIS Review]
... calibrated radiocarbon dates causes horrible problems for chronology. Thus F. Hole, writing in 1987, summarised the 8000-6000 BP period in Mesopotamia and complained of a subsequent 1000 year dark age' created by the application of calibrated radiocarbon dates: "In view of the prevailing lack of sites ascribed to this phase, not to mention the lack of stratigraphic evidence for a substantial gap time [sic], we can hardly be comfortable with the situation: a chronological "fault-line" on either side of which exist abundant sites, but across which the evidence is scarce to non-existent. While calibration of dates has resolved some problems, it has created this giant enigma. The possibilities are as ...
190. Recent Developments in Near Eastern Archaeology [Journals] [SIS Review]
... often controlled by the Assyrians but was also fought over at various times by Hittites, Hurrians, Aramaeans and Urartians. Giricano might have languished in obscurity but for the excavation of a small archive of dated texts. To find dated texts in a stratified context with identifiable pottery is a chronologist's dream, but unfortunately there are queries about the exact stratigraphy and about the exact type of pottery. The texts and their context have been published with commendable speed in: Karen Radner, Das Mittelassyrische Tontafelarchiv von Giricano/Dunnu-sa-Uzibi, Brepols, Turnhout, 2004. The title translates as The Middle Assyrian Clay Tablet Archive from Giricano, and Dunnu-sa-Uzibi is the ancient name of the site as read from ...
