You say WORDS, make claims but where is your QUOTE?
I quote directly from Kenyon, you claim she says something else but don't
provide a quote. So you're just considered an unreliable propagandist
liar.
That's all. When you come up with the contradictory QUOTE to prove what I
say is wrong, then we can discuss it. Until then, you're just someone who
is lying and unreliable.
Words are cheap. Quotes rock!!
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."
