... the site was indeed Ebla, a powerful and even imperial city of the third millennium B.C . There is, however, disagreement about the dating of the tablets: the archaeologist says 2400-2250 B.C ., while the epigrapher says 2580-2450 B.C .- quite a difference in range. The archaeologist bases his dates on stratigraphic data, while the epigrapher bases his on the style of the cuneiform writing as compared with other examples of known date. What I found interesting here is the change - one might say reversal in the topography of Ebla, which was described in ancient (contemporary) references as "in the mountains"(2 ) and is today ...
282. Palestinian Archaeology and a Ramesses VI-Shishak Identification [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... backfilling and levelling, and the relative lack of any but small stones in the fill, all seem to confirm the robber theory. ' In that case, the Str. 7 robber trenches, plus the backfilling and levelling, would have taken place immediately before the cyclopean constructions of Str. 6C- a theory quite compatible with both the stratigraphic and the ceramic evidence" (p . 65). Could this extensive Structure 7 preparation for construction be Solomon's? Such a hypothesis would agree well with the preceding partial destruction of Gezer by fire, as evidenced in Field II Structure 13 (which belongs, like Field VI Structure 8, to General Stratum XV); elsewhere there ...
283. Ice Cores and Catastrophism [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... , NATURE 288 (1980), pp.230-35 (231) 3. Velikovsky accepted the (then) conventional date of c.1500 BC for Thera (see EARTH IN UPHEAVAL, IX, "Volcanoes, Earthquakes, Comets") but this was in error. He placed Exodus at the end of the Middle Bronze age: stratigraphically the Thera eruption comes later - in late Minoan IA. See KRONOS 1:2 , pp.93-99 for a discussion of when Thera should more properly be dated within Velikovsky's chronology. 4. WORKSHOP 5:2 , pp.12-22 5. C.U . Hammer et al., op.cit. (note 2 ...
284. Society News [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... a hiatus in Israelite history, possibly lasting some centuries, which he tentatively placed at the time of "Shishak" and the sack of the Temple immediately after the high point of the united Israelite monarchy under Solomon. It was agreed in discussion that these ideas deserved serious consideration and a great deal of research, particularly into the archaeology and stratigraphy of Palestine during the Bronze and Iron Ages. The next meeting will be held at 3:00 p.m ., Sunday 4th December, at 11 Dulwich Court, Underhill Road, London SE22. "Review" and "Workshop" Binders During the next 2 to 3 weeks binders for the Review and Workshop will be sent ...
285. Briefings [Journals] [SIS Review]
... of an asteroid which struck the Earth 65 million years ago, raising a cloud of detritus which obscured the sun for some years, inhibiting photosynthesis and thus killing off plants at the beginning of numerous food chains (not least that on which the saurian herbivores depended). The theory has more than one strand of quantitative support (isotopic and stratigraphic), though it is not free of problems (chiefly geomagnetic). As it stands, it is designed to accommodate the available data, and thus it stands, in Maddox's estimation, as a theory which deserves testing. Despite the disparaging comments quoted above, we will let the parallels in Maddox's summing-up speak for themselves: - ...
286. Letters [Journals] [SIS Review]
... revolt movement. Peter van der Veen, Mondou, Chad No Late Bronze I remains at Jerusalem?Dear Sir, I refer readers to H. J. Franken & M. L. Steiner: Urusalim and Jebus', Zeitschrift fur Altestestament Wissenschaft 104 (1992), pp. 110-111. These two archaeologists have studied the pottery and stratigraphy of Kathleen Kenyon's Bronze Age' Jerusalem (Ophel hill) and have come to the conclusion that there is no material there which can be dated to the 14th century BC. What pottery is found there can be dated to the 12th century, however. The Middle Bronze age city wall was in a derelict state before, some five ...
287. Sun, Moon, and Sothis: A Study of Calendars and Calendar Reforms in Ancient Egypt by Lynn E. Rose [Journals] [Aeon]
... East. And Rose has postulated some rational guidelines toward that end. To finally address Gardiner's lamentation over that little matter of the Middle East, we find enlightened folks like Hammurabi the Lawgiver less of a perspicacious First Dynasty Babylonian and more of a circumspect monarch of the later Persian Empire, with Rose graciously giving both credit and credence to the stratigraphic chronology reconstructed by Gunnar Heinsohn. In fact, we now see Hammurabi decked out in the vêtements and accoutrements of Darius the Great. This, in and of itself, should create quite a stir among the cognoscenti! [2 ] Three-quarters of Sun, Moon, and Sothis are spent in meticulously laying out the intricate groundwork in astronomical ...

289. Centuries of Darkness? - the reviewers reviewed [Journals] [SIS Review]
... I think quite adequately, is the possibility of its being wrong." Since he is a leading authority on the Dark Ages of Greece, we await the evidence from his own specialty against the Centuries of Darkness thesis. It is a surprise, then, to find him presenting no evidence of his own: we hear nothing of Greek stratigraphy, ceramics, etc. James et al. have made a nice try' but they are unlucky' because the scientific evidence goes against them: radiocarbon dates indicate a chronology which, if anything, is older than that generally accepted. Writing in the review feature in Cambridge Archaeological Journal, Snodgrass does refer to two Greek problems' ...
290. Chapter 11 Tin Bronzes and the Sumerians [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... C .? One does not have a Bronze Age without tin, in the same way that one does not cut diorite without having an Iron Age. Again, the so-called Sumerians could not have lived in the third millennium B.C . The digs at Tell Munbaqa also leave the Mesopotamian chronology in a shambles, a concept without a stratigraphical leg upon which to stand. ...
