I see. No comment from you. Strange that.

I've shown you the evidence at Jericho. It's very,
very detailed, and accurate.

No, it is not that detailed and, most importantly, it does not
match
the biblical dates.

I don't agree with you at all,

I don't care whether you agree or not - those are the scientific
results.

Scientific results, no. The archaeologists are the science
persons, not "the majority" that you claim are for your
date.

Well, archaeologists are not really scientists. They hand their
finds
to scientists for dating, usually by radiocarbon dating.

Bob, I've shown you that Jericho has been dated by
radiocarbon dating to 1400 B.C. by Woods "plus
or minus 40 years" most recently by Woods.

And very few accept that figure because it is anomalous, the
overwhelming majority of test put the destruction of Jericho at around
1600BC.

Very few liberal people.

I don't know what political persuasion the scientists are. I don't
even know what religious persuasion they are. But I do know that they
are proper scientists who publish their results in proper peer
reviewed publications.

It's a little more complicated than just going by
carbon dating, though. Many of the other dates
are formed by people confusing the Hyksos with
the Israelites.

Do stop talking rubbish. The Hyksos were earlier, 17th century BC. The
Israelites emerged out of the general population in Canaan around
1200-1000BC.

Sounds very much like Finkelstein's "The Bible Unearthed,"
with his "chieftain" theory, if David or Solomon ever existed.
He's wrong, and an archaeologist named Mazar has found
the palace of King David, and/or an important building to
his world. She found a bulla that has the name on it of a
Jewish man mentioned in the Bible, Yehuchal Ben Shelemiah,
chapters 37 an 38 in Jeremiah. This palace/bldg. is south of
the Temple Mount. Do notice the mention of Kenyon's time
frame, which I mention elsewhere in this post, in connection
with when she thinks the Israelites entered Canaan. Notice also
the mention of the destruction of the Temple Mount by the
Waqf. The things they bulldozed were retrieved and dated to
the first and second temples. They bulldozed columns they
found underneath the Temple Mount, which ended up being
broken and heaped up in trash piles in the road, awaiting
dump trucks to pick up to throw over the cliff of the local
dump, over in the Kidron Valley. They were retrieved from
that dump and dated. The reason that the Waqf is said to
have done this destruction has to do with the building of a
mosque in an entrance to a tunnel they would not let the
Jews go in and investigate and excavate! They sealed up the
tunnel and built their mosque, and have prevented Jews from
going near the tunnel.

Kathleen Kenyon is said to have
done this also.

Cite?

I'm not talking rubbish. Kenyon associated the destruction
of the layer of city of Jericho called "City IV," with the
expulsion of the Hyksos from Egypt in about 1570 B.C.:
Kenyon, "Palestine in the Middle Bronze Age," in CAH3,
pp. 92-93; "Jericho," EAEHL, p. 563
Kenyon was a good archaeologist, but she was off with
the date because of her associating the Israelites with the
Hyksos, which they were not. But she did not know that.

Part of the reason people get them
confused is because of confusion over what
Josephus said about the Hebrews being in Egypt.

They were not, at least not in any large number.

It sounds like you have this idea because of
Finkelstein's book.

Josephus reported that the Hyksos were in Egypt,
and built monuments there. People came along,
and not knowing the difference, they printed that
he said the Hebrews were in Egypt. Well...there
are Hebrews that were not Israelites. They are all
Semitic people, which means they are descendants
of Shem [S(h)emitic] who is one of the sons of
Noah.

You are getting fiction confused with reality again.

[Snip more rubbish.]

You are confused.
