... of Amon, a vessel used by priests in their processions, is all that the Twenty-first Dynasty's papyri can report of relations of Egypt with Syria or Palestine. We shall soon examine Wenamon's travelogue and realize how wretched Egypt's position was in international relations and trade. It can hardly qualify as a documentation of "friendly trade relations with Palestine and Syrian coastal towns" (Cerny), with no other evidence in view. On what a different scale was the trade of Solomon, when forests of cedar trees of Lebanon were moved by sea to Jaffa-an operation different not only in scope but also in period. One hundred and fifty-five years ( -1100 to -945) of no contact ...
142. Untitled [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... journal Tel Aviv (Vol. 8, 1981, pp. 1-17). Nineteen lines of text occur on the front side of the tablet, fifteen lines on its back, and it is also written upon along the margins. The text consists of a letter written in Akkadian by Takuhlina, prefect of the city of Ugarit on the Syrian coast to the north, to Haya, a high-ranking Egyptian official who may have been in residence at Aphek. According to traditional interpretations of Egyptian history, Egypt still possessed an Asiatic empire during the nineteenth dynasty in the thirteenth century, which explains the presence of an Egyptian official here at this time. The letter follows a relatively standard ...
143. Applying the Revised Chronology [Journals] [Pensee]
... and 950 B.C .) , separated by 600 years, are most similar (162). The Cypriote vaulted tombs from 950-600 B.C . seem to undergo the same development as the Enkomi and Ugaritic tombs with 600 years separating the corresponding phases. It has been postulated that the later tombs somehow copied the earlier Cypriote or Syrian ones, but the tombs presumably copied must have been buried and invisible for some 600 years (163). Similar tombs are found in Jerusalem, Asia Minor, and Urartu of the 9th-7th centuries, and again it is thought that they originated in 9th-7th-century Syro-Phoenicia (164). But the only tombs of this type in that region ...
144. The Tomb Of King Ahiram. Ch. 3. (Ramses II and his Time) [Velikovsky]
... this work, as Herodotus says? Again, was it Seti-Ptah-Maat, the predecessor of Ramses II, who first employed Greek Mercenaries, or was it Necho's predecessor, Psam-metich of Herodotus? The reader may be depended on to solve a similar question without the help of the author. Byblos, the modem Jebeil, or Gebel, on the Syrian coast, north of Beirut, Gwal of the Old Testament and of Phoenician inscriptions, or K-b-ny in Egyptian, was an old and venerated royal city. It traded with cedars of Lebanon and with papyri imported from Egypt.1 In the nineteenth century Ernest Renan, the celebrated religious historian, dug at Byblos and also at Tyre, ...
145. From the Death of Eli to the Death of Saul [Books]
... he would supply him, be would act the part of a friend, and be assisting to the business he was now about: and when he had obtained what he desired, he also asked him whether he had any weapons with him, either sword or spear. Now there was at Nob a servant of Saul, by birth a Syrian, whose name was Doeg, one that kept the king's mules. The high priest said that he had no such weapons; but, he added, "Here is the sword of Goliath, which, when thou hadst slain the Philistine, thou didst dedicate to God." 2. When David had received the sword, he ...
146. Chapter 16 Hittites ? Lydians [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... the Babylonian monarch of aggression against Assyrian territory. "Herodotus informs us that it was the Lydians who started the war. Croesus, he says, crossed the Halys river (close to Boghaz-koi) and, " 'came to a place called Pteria, in Cappadocia. . . . Here he encamped, and ravaged the lands of the Syrians, and took the city of the Pterians, and enslaved the inhabitants; he also took all the Charles Ginenthal, Pillars of the Past 503 adjacent places, and expelled the inhabitants, who had given him no cause for blame. ' "In like manner, it would appear that it was Tudkhaliash the Hittite who initiated hostilities against ...
147. The Albrecht/Glueck-Aharoni/Rothenberg Confrontation [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... the note inserted in Manetho's list by Africanus.52 This synchronism was disregarded by the conventional scheme and was also disregarded by Velikovsky in his proposed revision. This rearrangement of the late dynasties rejects the sequence between dynasties XXII and XXIII as held conventionally. Dynasty XXII was neither Assyrian nor Libyan. It was evidently an usurper dynasty, probably of Syrian origin, which had taken control of some limited but undefined territory in the delta region. The background is hence purely local to that area. Dynasty XXII has long been the source of a major problem. Scholars seem to have learned to live with a proposed placement that is anything but unequivocal. Some early investigators recognized an Assyrian origin ...
148. A Note on the Term "Hyksos" [Journals] [Kronos]
... a discussion of the Fifteenth Dynasty and its rulers, Albright remarked that "in later times the Egyptians applied the term Hyksos, literally princes of the shepherds, ' to them, but this designation is probably a mistake for a phrase with nearly identical pronunciation, meaning foreign chiefs, chiefs of a foreign country, ' applied to Palestinian and Syrian chiefs and princes in the literature of the Middle Empire."(21) In translating Manetho for the Loeb Classical Library series, W. G. Waddell made the following comment about the term Hyksos. ". . . and sos in common speech is shepherd' or shepherds': . . . This is correct: for ...
149. Abimilki, Azaru and Nikmed in the El-Amarna Correspondence and the Assyrian Annals [Journals] [Kronos]
... looking like dyed wool was inspired by the trade of Ugarit-Ras Shamra", Feldman seems to have assumed that this definitely was the case, and that the "city of Nikdime" was a producer of red wool dye. This is reading too much into an ordinary Assyrian expression. In his first year Shalmaneser III defeated a coalition of northern Syrian states, from Sam'al, Hattina, Adini and Carchemish, and he "dyed the mountains with their blood like red wool".(17) Were these cities also renowned for their red wool dye? Moreover, a little "scouring of Semitic documents" outside the pages of Ages In Chaos would have shown that the "cities ...
150. Philologos | The Legends of the Jews: Volume IV [Books]
... He was liberal toward scholars, and he showed great reverence for the Torah, which he studied zealously. When Ben-hadad exacted all he possessed his wealth, his wives, his children he acceded to his demands regarding everything except the Torah; that he refused peremptorily to surrender. (34) In the war that followed between himself and the Syrians, he was so indignant at the presumptuousness of the Aramean upstart that he himself saddled his warhorse for the battle. His zeal was rewarded by God; he gained a brilliant victory in a battle in which no less than a hundred thousand of the Syrians were slain, as the prophet Micaiah had foretold to him. (35) ...
