... Egypt. 28 RAS SHAMRA If the Egyptian chronology is incorrect, then problems should occur in the histories of countries whose absolute chronology is determined from the Egyptian standard. In Ages in Chaos, Velikovsky provides several impressive examples of this. One of the examples concerns the relationship between Cyprus and Ugarit, the ancient city of Ras Shamra on the Syrian coast. It is thought that layer I of Ugarit was dated by two independent methods. Some Egyptian items were found which were dated to the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Dynasties of Egypt, (about -1600 to -1200). Some Mycenaean styles of pottery were found supposedly dating from the fifteenth through part of the thirteenth centuries BC, thereby confirming ...

... , expeditions were dispatched southward in search of tusks.... "But the south could not produce enough ivory to meet Egypt's needs. The great rulers of the New Kingdom, Thutmose I and Thutmose III invaded Syria, and one of their reasons for this extension of empire was their desire to secure a supply of ivory from the Syrian herds.... "The Syrian elephants... had provided most of the tusks for the craftsmen of Phoenicia, Babylon and Assyria. They bore the brunt of the quest for ivory throughout much of the ancient period. As well as professional hunters, kings went on elephant battues.... Ivory figured prominently in ...
... shall overthrow the kingdom of Israel, and that in the very same manner he shall destroy those that are his subjects also. When Rabshakeh had made this speech in the Hebrew tongue, for he was skillful in that language, Eliakim was afraid lest the multitude that heard him should be disturbed; so he desired him to speak in the Syrian tongue. But the general, understanding what he meant, and perceiving the fear that he was in, he made his answer with a greater and a louder voice, but in the Hebrew tongue; and said, that "since they all heard what were the king's commands, they would consult their own advantage in delivering up themselves ...

... within the next three verses is surely tribute, not traded expensive presents for advice'. The trade in horses and chariots can be seen as a prerogative of the king, both being items for war. Selling such items for offensive warfare could be a dangerous game unless this action was driven by an alliance situation with the Hittites and the Syrians - remember that the Syrians under Hadad and Rezon had recaptured Damascus and were adversaries to Israel all the days of Solomon, yet here he is selling them implements of war. I can only reason that this was towards the end of Solomon's rule, when he was looking elsewhere for military assistance. There is no mention in the Bible ...

... collapsed in the face of a series of ferocious campaigns waged by the Hittite King Suppiluliumas. From then onwards, and continuing throughout much of the 19th Dynasty, the Hatti land was the dominant power throughout Anatolia and northern Syria; and indeed the pharaohs of the 19th Dynasty had to wage numerous campaigns against the Hittites in order to protect their Syrian possessions. But this dominance came to an end, and, according to conventional ideas, the Hittite Empire collapsed in the latter years of the 13th century BC, shortly after the reign of Tudkhaliash IV, apparently in the wake of a devastating attack by the mysterious "Sea Peoples", who occur quite prominently in the inscriptions of ...

... various times in the ancient world, causing destruction and mass migrations. Ebla was a community in western Syria that controlled the traffic between Mesopotamia and Anatolia and Egypt. Its time of prosperity and importance was in the third millennium before Christ.3 Until recently its precise location was unknown; an Italian archaeologist, Paulo Matthiae, working at a Syrian site named Tell Mardikh, however, discovered that this was indeed the ancient city of Ebla. He not only established the identity of the site, but he also discovered fifteen thousand whole and broken cuneform tablets there.4 Early Bronze Age Disasters The site of Ebla with its precious tablets bears very importantly on the history before the exodus ...

... 13-year exile and 20-year reign, allowing for part years. Since Osarsiph's rebellion succeeded, he must have become king, and I would therefore identify him as Siptah. Arzu the Asiatic The Great Harris Papyrus records the "empty years when Arzu an Asiatic was with them as chief", referring to this time. Who was this so-called "Syrian condottiere"? He cannot have been the Egyptian Osarsiph, so he must have been the leader of the shepherds of Jerusalem. Which "chief", i.e . king, ruled Jerusalem at this time, with a 200,000-strong army and a name resembling Arzu? The Bible speaks of him. His name was Azariah ...

... globe - the great catastrophe that ended the Middle Kingdom - a similar effort was made by Claude F. A. Schaeffer, Professor at College de France. The reader of Ages in Chaos is familiar with his work of excavating Ras Shamra (Ugarit), from the chapter carrying this title. He observed in Ras Shamra, on the Syrian coast, obvious signs of great destruction that pointed to violent earthquakes, tidal waves, and other marks of a natural disaster. At the occasion of his visit to Troy, excavated by C. Blegen, Schaeffer became aware that Troy was destroyed by the elements - and repeatedly so- at the same times when Ras Shamra was destroyed ...
80. Ramessides, Medes and Persians by Emmet J. Sweeney (Reviewed) [Journals] [SIS Review]
... (= Ptolemies?), Luwians (who include Phrygians and Lycians), Lydians (= Scythians and/or Hittites?), Medes, Mitannians (= Medes?), Persians, Sardans, Sargonids, Scythians (including the Umman-Manda), Semites, Sumerians ( ' Early', Early Dynastic' and Neo'), Syrians and Urartians (= a sub-division of Hittites?). Unfortunately, the possibilities of confusions or overlaps between these groups appear to be almost endless, permitting creation of a wide range of alternative scenarios, of which Heinsohn' s is but one. Sweeney goes on to produce an impressively researched account of events in Assyria, Palestine and ...
