ROFL! JTEM, you talk like a 5th grader. 1550 was the MDA
destruction that happened. There was more than one destruction.
Kenyon specifically associates the Israelite destruction to 1350-1325 BCE.
I quoted directly from her book. You should have checked the source since
I gave the page number as well before you call me a liar. Also,
the THIRD quarter is 1350-1325 BCE. The fourth quarter is that you
put, which is 1325-1300 BCE.
I quoted her directly and will do so again. This time check it out before
calling me a liar. It just makes you look incompetent to others who see
I'm quoting from a source and giving the reference. Maybe you
should give a direct quote in rebuttal. Anyway, this is WAY over your
head
because if you knew what you were talking about, you'd know there was
more than one destruction of Jericho. So, yes, indeed, Kenyon probably
references the destruction of Jericho in 1550 BCE but another one in the
"third quarter of the 14th century BCE" as well. There is an MBA
destruction
and an LBA destruction. You're CONFUSED, as usual.
Here's the quite with the references. LOOK IT UP, check them at the
library before calling me a liar. I have no need to lie.
Kathleen Kenyon: Digging Up Jericho, Jericho and the Coming of the
Israelites, page 262:
"As concerns the date of the destruction of Jericho by the Israelites, all
that can be said is that the latest Bronze Age occupation should, in my
view, be dated to the third quarter of the fourteenth century B.C. This is
a
date which suits neither the school of scholars which would date the entry
of the Israelites into Palestine to c. 1400 B.C. nor the school which
prefers a date of c. 1260 B.C."
Page 261 of her book, "Digging Up Jericho," in the Chapter called "Jericho
And Coming Of The Israelites," she says:
"It is a sad fact that of the town walls of the Late Bronze Age, within
which period the attack by the Israelites must fall by any dating, not a
trace remains."
