... to fill it." With the Arabians it was Al Dalw, the Well-bucket; and Kazwini's Al Askib al Ma', the Water-pourer; from the first of which came the Edeleu of Bayer, and the Eldelis of Chilmead. The Persians knew it as Dol or Doil; the Hebrews, as Deli (Riccioli's Delle); the Syrians, as Daulo, like the Latin Dolium; and the Turks, as Kugha, all meaning a Waterbucket. In the Persian Bundehesh it is Vahik. In China, with Capricornus, Pisces, and a part of Sagittarius, it constituted the early Serpent, or Turtle, Tien Yuen; and later was known as Hiuen Ying, ...
12. The Hittites in Israel [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... From: SIS Workshop Vol 4 No 1 (Jul 1981) Home | Issue Contents The Hittites in Israel Martin Sieff The Book of Kings contains the following account of the end of the seige of Samaria by the Syrian army during the troubled reign of Jehoram, son of Ahab, king of Israel: For the Lord had made the host of the Syrians to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, even the noise of a great host: and they said one to another, "Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come upon us." Wherefore they ...

... foreign power (" overthrown from without") and the population became depraved. The words "they had no chief mouth for many years" means that there was no king and no central government; the local potentates, mayors, and others acted lawlessly. "Other times having come after it, empty years, Arza, a certain Syrian (H-rw),[3 ] was with them as chief. He set the whole land tributary before him together; he united his companions and plundered their possessions. They made the gods like men, and no offerings were presented in the temples." It was after these distressing times that Usikhaure-meramunsetpenre Setnakhte-merrere-meramun "set in order the ...
14. In the Days of Seti I and Ramses II [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... other sources it is evident that he took Beth-Shan (known to Hellenistic authors as Scythopolis) as well as Yanoam. Along with the capture of Yanoam, the second register at Karnak depicts the submission of the princes of Lebanon, which presumably took place in the same year. A missing third register at Karnak probably recorded a campaign through the Syrian coastal regions. This can be deduced from the sphinx at Kurna, which refers to the taking of the Syrian towns of Zimyra and Ullaza. The capture of Kadesh in northern Syria, mention of which is preserved on the damaged fourth register at Karnak, may have marked a phase in the same campaign. The accompanying inscription reads: ...
15. Did Thutmose III Despoil the Temple in Jerusalem? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... that dealing with Pharaoh Thutmose III of Egypt, of the famous XVIIIth Dynasty (1 ). According to the story as told by Egyptologists, this pharaoh, in the end year of his reign - supposed to correspond to the year 1479 BC (2 ) - embarked on a military expedition into Syria in order to fight a coalition of Syrian princes under the leadership of a "King of Kd-sw", who had risen against him. The campaign ended with the overwhelming victory of the Pharaoh who returned to Egypt laden with spoil from the conquered lands. After his return, the story of this campaign was cut, in hieroglyphs, into the walls of the great Temple at ...

... button in Egypt, exactly like the pattern from Bismya in Sumer. 4 Petrie suggested that some of these at least were worn by a bodyguard of foreign soldiers.5 Other evidence for the Asiatic origin of these kings has been found: `On a jasper cylinder of Khandy, 2nd king of the 7th Dynasty, he appears as a Syrian giving life to the Syrian, while the Egyptian stands in the background holding a papyrus stem. The ibexes and guilloche mark this as Syrian work.6 The conclusion is inescapable; `It is evident . . . that the Syrian had conquered and held Egypt as a joint kingdom with Syria.7 There is ample evidence to suggest ...
17. "The Basest Of The Kingdoms". Part 2 Ch.2 (Peoples of the Sea) [Velikovsky]
... close of Amasis' reign, when Cambyses subjugated Egypt, humiliated its people, and ruined its temples, and for generations thereafter, through most of the Persian period. When Golenishchev purchased the papyrus with Ourmai's letter of laments, he obtained in the same transaction a papyrus containing another tale of woe-the story of Wenamon's errand to Byblos on the Syrian coast. Like the letter of Ourmai, the travelogue of Wenamon dates from the Twenty-first Dynasty; both were copied by the same hand; but it is understood that Wenamon's story relates events several generations more recent. Whereas Ourmai's letter was translated and published only recently (in 1961), Wenamon's story was published long ago, actually by ...

... of one hundred and nineteen cities in Palestine is engraved three times on the walls of that temple. Each city is represented by a man with his arms bound behind him, and a shield covering the body of the man bears the name of the city he symbolizes. Another list, imperfect and in one copy, shows almost three hundred Syrian cities as captives, also as men bound and with shields on their breasts. A bas-relief at Karnak shows the treasures in gold, silver, bronze, and precious stones that Thutmose III brought as booty from one of his campaigns; a series of other murals exhibits the flora and fauna he transported from Palestine to Egypt. These campaigns ...
19. Ras Shamra (Ages in Chaos) [Velikovsky]
... in the following years, in twelve seasons of excavation,1 buildings of a city and its harbor were unearthed together with pottery, utensils, jewelry, and the tablets of a library. This obscure place, not even marked on maps, lies to the north of Latakia, the ancient Laodicea ad mare, at a point on the Syrian coast opposite the elongated arm of land stretching out from Cyprus toward the mainland on the east. On a bright afternoon the island can be seen from the hills surrounding Ras Shamra. The place was tentatively identified as Ugarit of the el-Amarna letters,2 and written documents found there confirmed this conjecture. In gray antiquity the city had been ...
... temple, (11) and commanded him that, in case the Jews would not admit of them, he should slay those that opposed it, and carry all the rest of the nation into captivity: but God concerned himself with these his commands. However, Petronius marched out of Antioch into Judea, with three legions, and many Syrian auxiliaries. Now as to the Jews, some of them could not believe the stories that spake of a war; but those that did believe them were in the utmost distress how to defend themselves, and the terror diffused itself presently through them all; for the army was already come to Ptolemais. 2. This Ptolemais is a ...
