Three Conquests of Canaan
ÅA Wars in the Middle East are almost an every day part of Eero Junkkaala:of Three Canaan Conquests our lives, and undeniably the history of war in this area is very long indeed. This study examines three such wars, all of which were directed against the Land of Canaan. Two campaigns were conducted by Egyptian Pharaohs and one by the Israelites. The question considered being Eero Junkkaala whether or not these wars really took place. This study gives one methodological viewpoint to answer this ques- tion. The author studies the archaeology of all the geo- Three Conquests of Canaan graphical sites mentioned in the lists of Thutmosis III and A Comparative Study of Two Egyptian Military Campaigns and Shishak and compares them with the cities mentioned in Joshua 10-12 in the Light of Recent Archaeological Evidence the Conquest stories in the Book of Joshua. Altogether 116 sites were studied, and the com- parison between the texts and the archaeological results offered a possibility of establishing whether the cities mentioned, in the sources in question, were inhabited, and, furthermore, might have been destroyed during the time of the Pharaohs and the biblical settlement pe- riod. Despite the nature of the two written sources being so very different it was possible to make a comparative study. This study gives a fresh view on the fierce discus- sion concerning the emergence of the Israelites. It also challenges both Egyptological and biblical studies to use the written texts and the archaeological material togeth- er so that they are not so separated from each other, as is often the case.

CANAAN Son of Ham, Grandson of Noah, Who Laid a Curse
CANAAN Son of Ham, grandson of Noah, who laid a curse upon him ( Ge 9:18,22-27). In Ge 10:15-19 eleven groups who historically inhabited Phoenicia in particular and Syria-Palestine in general are listed as his descendants. See also the following article. K.A.K. CANAAN, CANAANITES A Semitic-speaking people and their territory, principally in Phoenicia. Their racial affinities are at present uncertain. I. The name The name Canaan (Heb. e ) of people and land derives from that of their forebear Canaan or Kna‘ (see previous article) according to both Ge 10:15-18 and native Canaanite- Phoenician tradition as transmitted by Sanchuniathon and preserved by Philo of Byblos. Kna‘(an) is the native name of the Canaanites-Phoenicians applied to them both in Greek sources and by the Phoenicians themselves ( e.g. on coins; see W. F. Albright, p. 1, n. 1, in his paper, ‘The Rôle of the Canaanites in the History of Civilization’, in The Bible and the Ancient Near East, Essays for W. F. Albright , 1961, pp. 328-362; cited hereafter as BANE Vol.). The meaning of Kn‘(n) is unknown. Outside the Bible, the name occurs both with and without the final n This n could be either a final n of a common Semitic type, or else a Hurrian suffix (Albright, op.cit. , p. 25, n. 50). Formerly, some linked kn‘(n) with words for ‘purple dye’, esp. in Hurrian (with Speiser, Language 12, 1936, p. 124), but this was disproved by Landsberger ( JCS 21, 1967, p. 106f.). II.

The Early Iron Age Aegeanizing Pottery Assemblage at Alalakh 1 Evidence of Transformation: the Early Iron Age Aegeanizing Pottery Assemblage at Alalakh
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Liverpool Repository Evidence of Transformation: The Early Iron Age Aegeanizing Pottery Assemblage at Alalakh 1 Evidence of Transformation: The Early Iron Age Aegeanizing Pottery Assemblage at Alalakh Mariacarmela Montesanto 1 Abstract This article presents the canonical locally made Late Helladic IIIC and Aegeanizing pottery found at Alalakh within the context of the full 12th century ceramic assemblage. The discovery of this particular type of pottery could be used to argue that there may have been people at Alalakh who came from the Aegean, but it also could have been the result of local people imitating habits, cooking styles and re- cipes of the Aegean alongside their native ways. The paper will focus on the changes that occurred in the local ceramic assemblage and specifically on how the assimilation of a foreign style ware affected the local tradition, contributing to the creation of new habits and new identities in a period of struggles and transformations. 1. Introduction Tell Atchana, the ancient city of Alalakh, is located on the Orontes River near the southern edge of the Amuq plain and within the district of Hatay, modern Turkey. It is a long mound of 22 hectares (Yener et al. 2000: 169). The first settlement on the mound should possibly be dated to the Amuq J period (c. 2200–2000 BC), and the site was continuously occupied from the beginning of the Middle Bronze I (c. 2000– 1800 BC) to the end of the Late Bronze Age IIA period (1400–1300 BC 2; Yener 2005: 101), with only a small area around the temple still in use during the 12th cen- tury BC (Yener 2013; Horowitz 2015: 160).

Who Are the Habiru of the Amarna Letters?
Journal of the Adventist Theological Society, 12/1 (2001): 31Ð42. Article copyright © 2001 by S. Douglas Waterhouse. Who are the HÓabiru of the Amarna Letters? S. Douglas Waterhouse Andrews University Despite numerous studies devoted to the question of who the ÒHabiruÓ were, a lively controversy still continues. The heart of the controversy pertains to that portion of the people referred to as ÒHabiruÓ who were attempting to take over the land of Canaan. In urgent dispatches sent to the Egyptian Court of Pharaohs Amenhotep III and his son, Akhenaten, the chieftains of the land of Canaan speak of the Habiru as a perilous threat to their city-states. It was the discovery in 1887 of over 350 cuneiform letters at Tell el-Amarna in Middle Egypt, the site of Pharaoh AkhenatenÕs capital, which opened up to the modern world new vistas on what had been occurring at a crucial time when Egypt was losing her grip upon her Asiatic Empire. These clay tablets, which were part of the Egyptian royal archives, the so-called ÒAmarna Letters,Ó con- tinue to raise a good deal of interest. And it is within this Amarna archival cor- respondence that the Habiru appear as powerful foes of Egyptian authority; a major force that had important effects upon events within the region of Pales- tine-Syria.1 The present interest in the Habiru is primarily caused by three factors: (1) the resemblance between the names Habiru and Hebrew, (2) the chronological relationship between the Amarna Habiru and the Israelites, and (3) the proximity of their location within the land of Canaan to that of the Hebrews in JoshuaÕs time.

The Rise and Fall of the 13Th Century Exodus-Conquest Theory
JETS 48/3 (September 2005) 475–89 THE RISE AND FALL OF THE 13TH-CENTURY EXODUS-CONQUEST THEORY bryant g. wood* The 13th-century exodus-conquest theory was formulated by William F. Albright in the 1930s, based largely on Palestinian archaeological evidence, and promoted by him throughout his career.1 In the years following Albright’s death in 1971, however, evidence for the proposal dissipated and most Pales- tinian archaeologists abandoned the idea.2 In spite of the fact that the theory runs counter to Scripture, a number of evangelicals continue to hold to this view, prompting Carl G. Rasmussen to comment, “the Late-Date Exodus/ Conquest Model has been abandoned by many scholars . it seems that cur- rently the major adherents to the Late-Date Exodus/Conquest Model are some evangelicals!”3 A strong advocate of the theory is Kenneth A. Kitchen, who recently gave a detailed exposition of it in his On the Reliability of the Old Testament.4 i. basis for the 13th-century exodus-conquest theory Albright used three sites as evidence for a conquest in the late 13th cen- tury bc: Tell Beit Mirsim, which he identified as Debir;5 Beitin, identified as * Bryant G.

Biblical and Archeological Evidence for a 15Th Century BC Exodus
Biblical and Archeological Evidence for a 15th century BC Exodus • 1 Kings 6:1 designates 480 years from the Exodus to Solomon’s dedication of the temple. The dedication was 966 BC. That makes the Exodus 1446 BC. • The “Dream Stela” of Thutmose IV on the sphinx gives evidence that Thutmose was not the legal heir to the throne. It would be logical that the eldest son was killed in the 10th plague. • In Judges 11:26, Jephthah assigns 300 years between his day (c. 1100 BC) and the Conquest. This would seem to indicate a 15th century Exodus. • To support the biblical chronology of Moses, Pharaoh must have reigned in excess of 40 years. Moses stayed in the wilderness until Pharaoh died. Only possibilities: Thutmose III, Ramses II. • The Last Level at Hazor, wiped out by Barak and Deborah, contains Mycenæan IIIB Pottery; this requires, at the latest, a date in the late 13th century. This pushes Exodus much earlier. • The Merneptah Stela (c. 1220 BC) mentions Israel by name. They must have been there for a long time for the Egyptians to accept them as a nation. • The Amarna Tablets (1400 BC) tell of the upheaval caused by the “Habiru.” This could have been the Hebrews, possibly classified under a general category. • The length of time assigned to the Judges period in Scripture, even with overlapping, cannot be squeezed into the century and a half allowed by a 13th century BC Exodus. • Finds at the Timna temple indicate sedentary civilizations in Negev at least in early 14th century BC.

CS 9003, 97400 Saint Denis, France *Corresponding Author: Serge Svizzero, Faculté de Droit et d’Economie, Université de La Réunion, 15 Avenue René Cassin. CS 9003, 97400 Saint Denis, France Abstract: The literature explaining social collapse mainly focuses on factors such as wars, climate change or disease, as exemplified by numerous examples of collapses which have occurred during the Late Bronze Age in the Near East and in the South-eastern Mediterranean region. This paper aims at demonstrating that collapse can also have economic reasons. Indeed, collapse may be the outcome of an economic growth process which is inherently unsustainable. More precisely, we claim that several ancient societies collapsed because their form of economic development eventually proved to be unable to sustain their standard of living. It is believed that the Únĕtice societies (which existed in the central European Early Bronze Age) were among those that collapsed for that reason. Two different simple models are presented to demonstrate how agricultural economies of this type which introduced bronze mining and metallurgy were unable to sustain their economic development. Keywords: unsustainable development, Bronze Age, elite, economic surplus, mining productivity, Únĕtice culture.

Its kings exchanged letters with those of Egypt, Ugarit, and the Hittites, and it was a major source of copper for those states. While its international diplomatic correspondence was conducted in Akkadian, the lingua franca of the day, the language actually spoken by the island’s populace, and written with what is known as the Cypro-Minoan syllabary, remains undeciphered.
