Email: [email protected]. ABSTRACT. Archaeometry is becoming an increasingly important tool in chronological research related to events in the Ancient Near East during the 2nd millennium BCE. This paper is a review of recently published radiometric results in an attempt to establish the probable dating range for one particular event that occurred during the last quarter of that millennium, the end of the Late Bronze Age. The conclusion is that in spite of significant improvements in methodology in recent years, the quantity and quality of radiocarbon data are still insufficient to define the range of that date to much better than a century. It is concluded that the most likely date of the Late Bronze/Iron Age transition (here defined by the arrival of Mycenaean LH IIIC:1b pottery in the Levant) is somewhere in the 8-decade range between ~1170 to 1100 BCE.

  • A Y2K Solution to the Chronology Problem
    67 A Y2K Solution to the Chronology Problem By: SHELDON EPSTEIN, BERNARD DICKMAN and YONAH WILAMOWSKY Introduction Scholars have long grappled with the apparently differing chronological dating for the Second Temple implied by the Talmud date the עבודה זרה ח:-ט. and historical records: Seder Olam and building of the Temple to about 350 BCE; Historians date it to about 516 BCE. In general three approaches have been taken to address the chronological differences, i.e. Historical dating is in error; the Talmud’s chronology is in error; the Talmud purposely manipulated the dating to achieve some important objective. The first approach would have us reject the objectivity and integrity of the historical records. The problem with this approach is that there is a substantial amount of available historical evidence that is difficult to refute. In a 1962 essay Rabbi S. Schwab found this discrepancy a “truly vexing problem” and wrote1 that the historical chronological dating: “can hardly be doubted for they appear to be the result of painstaking research by hundreds of scholars and are borne out by profound erudition and by ever increasing authoritative evidence … we are compelled to admit that the Bayis Sheni must have existed for no less than 586 years.” The second approach, that the Gemara erred, is equally unacceptable. Without resorting to arguments about the infallibility ______________________________________________________ Sheldon Epstein, Bernard Dickman and Yonah Wilamowsky are professional educators.

  • Studies on the Ancient Exact Sciences in Honor of Lis Brack-Bernsen
    44 Studies on the Ancient Exact Sciences in Honor of Lis Brack-Bernsen John M. Steele Mathieu Ossendrijver (eds.) EDITION TOPOI EDITION BERLIN STUDIES OF THE ANCIENT WORLD are the main subject in this collection of papers, o ered in honor of Lis Brack-Bernsen by her colleagues and friends. The topics of the articles are linked by the themes that have been at the center of much of Lis’s own work: the Babylo- nian observational record, and the relationship between observation and theory; the gnomon, sundials, and time measurement; and the relationship between di er- ent scientifi c activities in the ancient world, especially the connections between mathematics and astronomy. Lis Brack-Bernsen has been a key fi gure in transform- ing the study of Babylonian astronomy from an almost exclusive focus on the mathematical astronomy of the late period to embracing a much broader consideration of all aspects of the subject, both early and late, math- ematical and observational, astronomical and astrolog- ical, and their relationships between one another. The papers demonstrate the wide variety of questions asked and approaches used by historians of ancient science. 44 · 44 Studies on the Ancient Exact Sciences in Honor of Lis Brack-Bernsen John M.

    Navigating A Changing World Climate Change and Geologic History Vocabulary for Students • Paleontology: the study of life in past geologic time. • Geologic timescale: the geologic time scale (GTS) is a system of chronological dating that relates geological strata (stratigraphy) to time. It is used by geologists, paleontologists, and other Earth scientists to describe the timing and relationships of events that have occurred during Earth's history. • Boundary unit: a stratigraphic unit is a volume of rock of identifiable origin and relative age range that is defined by the distinctive and dominant, easily mapped and recognizable petrographic, lithological or paleontological features (facies) that characterize it. • Stratigraphy: the branch of geology concerned with the order and relative position of strata and their relationship to the geological timescale. • Carbon isotopes: carbon atoms with varying numbers of neutrons. • Greenhouse gases: a gas that contributes to the greenhouse effect by absorbing infrared radiation, e.g., carbon dioxide and chlorofluorocarbons. • Background extinction rate: known as the normal extinction rate, refers to the standard rate of extinction in earth's geological and biological history before humans became a primary contributor to extinctions. • Feedback cycles: a cyclic structure of cause and effect that causes some initial change in the system to run through a series of secondary effects, eventually influencing the initial change in some way. § Negative feedback cycle: negative feedback (or balancing feedback) occurs when some function of the output of a system, process, or mechanism is fed back in a manner that tends to reduce the fluctuations in the output, whether caused by changes in the input or by other disturbances.
