42. The Stratigraphy of Bahrein: An Answer to Critics [Journals] [Aeon]
... on page 378 we again find the textbook millennia taken for granted and used as a chronological yardstick along which the uncovered strata are stretched: Since it is not uncommon to start reading a book by going over the summary, I consider the chart partially reproduced above to be a likely source of my critics' belief that Bahrein gives them the stratigraphic sequence I ask for. In actual fact, they find the textbook chronology in the left column. This column, then, can hardly be used to refute my shortening of this very chronology, for that would amount to saying that the textbook chronology has to be correct because we also find it in Bibby's book. Apart from the ...
43. Assyria and the End of the Late Bronze Age [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... From: SIS Workshop Vol 4 No 2 (Sep 1981) Home | Issue Contents Assyria and the End of the Late Bronze Age Martin Sieff What happened at the end of the Late Bronze Age? Why and how did the Hittite Empire fall? Stratigraphic evidence shows that the Hittite Empire, Ugarit, and the other Late Bronze Age centres of Palestine, Syria, Anatolia and Cyprus were destroyed at the same time. The Hittite archives from Boghazköi appear to describe defence preparations, as if an invasion was imminent, and then are silent. In Greece, too, archaeology has revealed widespread siege preparations at this time. What was happening? Dated at 1200 BC on the ...
44. Indians of Illinois [Books] [de Grazia books]
... Modoc, Riverton, Koster (et al), and the U.S . Corps of Engineers surveys on Southern Illinois. I am returning them herewith, since I shall be leaving for Greece soon, but I would like to talk to you more about them before leaving, if that is possible. My problem was this: the stratigraphic work of Schaeffer and others show heavy ashes and calcinated debris from natural disasters over "Old World" settlements and cities, ending the Old, Middle, and Recent Bronze Ages; that is, effectively terminating these civilizations. Therefore, the "New World" in some likelihood would show the same. If, however, the stratigraphy ...
45. EARLY GLASSMAKING AND CHRONOLOGICAL PUZZLES [Journals] [Aeon]
... "from the grave of Neshkons, wife of Pinudjem II...at Der el Bahari."(25) Core-Formed Glass Vessels from Egypt's New Kingdom and Post-7th Century Eastern Mediterranean (inc. Egypt). These XXIst dynasty glass beakers do not, however, provide much chronological comfort: Where remains of this dynasty could be located stratigraphically- as in Memphis (by the University of Pennsylvania museum expedition) -they were found right underneath Ptolemaic layers. Thus, archaeology indicates a fourth century date for Neshkons' magnificent glass where Egyptologists want a tenth century B.C .E . date. The finest pieces come from Akhenaton's ( -1363 to -1347) capital Akhetaton ...
46. Scientific Prehistory [Books]
... sdb) is meant not only those processes that bury overburden by overthrusting and landslides, but also any process that can suddenly raise the pressure on a particular formation sufficient to cause compaction at a rate appreciably in excess of the rate of flow of fluid out of the formation. Furthermore, the sdb concept need not necessarily imply that the whole stratigraphic column above a particular stratum was suddenly deposited atop it, all at the same time. For example, there were several glacial overthrusts occurring at different times. (The "Ice Ages" could really have been simply successive glacial overthrusts as discussed elsewhere in this book; after all, no crucial evidence exists for separate "Ice Ages ...
47. Forum Part Two [Journals] [SIS Review]
... a period of several thousand years, unrelated to any single catastrophe. In his paper on Bronze Age Multi-Site Destructions, Bob Porter rejects the idea of cosmic catastrophes closing the Middle Bronze Age and the Late Bronze Age. In his view, the Middle Bronze Age civilisations were destroyed by earthquakes. Relying exclusively on Geoffrey Gammon's summary of Claude Schaeffer's stratigraphical analysis of Near Eastern destruction layers [28], Bob Porter, on the other hand, links the final destruction of Late Bronze III to the so-called Sea Peoples who used to be held responsible by mainstream historians for the collapse of the Bronze Age civilisations in the Near East [29]. Within the SIS, Geoffrey Gammon was ...
48. Heinsohn's Revised Chronology & Lynn Rose's Retrocalculations [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... impossible to find fault with it in any major way. From: Clark Whelton <whel@worldnet.att.net> Date: Sat, 15 Mar 1997 08:42:07 + 0000 It's impossible to find fault with ancient chronology as long as you accept the myth of "dark ages" and "huge gaps" in stratigraphical continuity. Heinsohn points out that the physical history of the ancient world shows the Greek historians were essentially right: archaeology sites show that there are four main settlement periods between Alexander and the Stone Age. Calling these periods by different names in different sites resulted in an inflated chronology that- mirabile dictu- just happens to correspond with Biblical ...
49. Finding the Limits of Chronological Revision [Journals] [SIS Review]
... , while still affirming his dating of the Exodus, the Hyksos period and the 18th Dynasty. The biggest departure was a rejection of his attempts to separate the 18th, 19th and 20th Dynasties. The publication of Peoples of the Sea in 1977 had clarified Velikovsky's overall scheme but a careful examination of the arguments revealed fatal weaknesses. Textual and stratigraphical evidence were both incompatible with his revision. Textual evidence against dividing the 18th, 19th & 20th Dynasties A wealth of textual evidence, from Egypt and beyond, shows that the 18th, 19th and 20th Dynasties followed each other without any breaks. Geoffrey Gammon assembled evidence linking Haremhab firmly with the end of the 18th Dynasty, against Velikovsky ...
50. Response to Bimson [Journals] [SIS Review]
... a couple of issues relating to the archaeology and stratigraphy of the Near East. These points were expanded upon in a footnote added to the transcript of the discussion which occurred at the end of my talk. The general impression conveyed by John was that I, along presumably with Gunnar Heinsohn, was failing to take into account the archaeological and stratigraphical evidence. Yet, that is the precise opposite of the truth. In fact, as Gunnar and I have attempted to show over the past fifteen years, it is conventional scholarship, as well as those who – like John – give credence to it, which has consistently ignored the stratigraphy and archaeology. Even in my paper at ...
