It is clear from the Archive that Egypt was overlord of Canaan.    This was the state of affairs from the current dynasty, into the 19th dynasty.    When the Egyptian king Ramses II battled Muwattalis,the Hittite king at Kadesh, it was clear that Ramses had possession of all the territory to the south of Kadesh.   The evidence from the Egyptian inscriptions suggest that the Egyptians remained in possession of Canaan until at least 1200 BC.   Unlike what my debating partner would suggest, Solomon's kingdom could not have existed during the Amarna period or afterwards.   The narrative of the rule of Solomon suggests that he had a full-blown empire stretching from Egypt all the way to the Middle Euphrates river.    He received tribute from Damascus and Hamath and was on par with the Phoenicians.   This could not have happened during the Amarna Period or the time of Ramses II.   The chronology of the kings of Israel and Judah make it quite clear that the rule of Solomon occurred during the 10th century BC (at least during the period, c. 970-930 BC).  The story of Moses would have occurred prior to the Conquest which probably occurred by about 1200 BC.    Moses would have lived prior to that time during the 13th century BC.

With the establishment of Amenhotep III flourishing about c. 1360 BC we now turn to other synchronisms at the period in the Middle East.  We shall now add the Hittites into this.   In the Amarna correspondences, there existed one such between Suppiluliumash I and an unspecified pharoah.  It was during his reign during a campaign in Syria when the Egyptian king Tutankhamun died and his widow was asking the Hittite king for one of his sons to marry her and rule Egypt.  He sends one of his sons a year later but the son was killed enraging the Hittite king who sent his army into Egyptian territory to attack and pillage.   When the Hittite army returned back into Hittite territory, they brought back prisoners with them which carried the plague.   Both Suppiluliumash and his successor Arnuwanda died leaving the throne to another son Murshilish II.   Now, in the 10th year of Murshilish II "the sun gave a sign" which has been interpreted as an eclipse of the sun which occurred on June 24, 1312 BC.  This places the beginning of Murshilish's reign about 1322/1321 BC.   Since his brother Arnuwanda had a very short reign, the last year of Suppilulimash would have been about 1322 BC.  So, since we can put Amenophis in c. 1360, we can put the end of Suppiluliumas in c. 1322 BC.  We then have the following:

EGYPT HATTI

Amenhotep III
(fl. c. 1360)
(ruled at least 38 years)
Amenhotep IV Suppiluliumas I
(ruled about 17 years) -c. 1322 BC
(Amarna built in 5th year)
Smenkhare
(ruled between 0/1 year)
Neferneferuaten
(ruled about 2 years)
Tutankhamun
(ruled about 10 years)
(closed Amarna in 2nd year)
Ankhesunamun (widow)
(ruled about 1 year)
Ay Murshilish II
c. 1321/22-

If Suppiluliumas died about 1322 then the army baring the plague had probably returned recently, within say a year, so the plague reached the Hittite king about 1323 BC.   The Hittite invasion occurred a year after the death of Tutankhamun, so Tutankhamun died about c. 1324 BC.   Tutankhamun ruled about 10 years so he began his reign about 1334 BC.  Since he closed Amarna in year 2, it occurred c. 1332 BC.  Neferuneferuaten ruled 2 years, so c. 1336-1334 BC.  Her predecessor Smenkhare may have ruled up to a year, so c. 1337-1336 BC.   Amenhotep IV/Akhenaten ruled about 17 years, so c. 1354-1337 BC.  He began Amarna in his 5th year, so c. 1349.  His father Amenhotep III ruled at least 38 years, so he reigned c. 1392-1354 BC.  It was during his reign that the Babylonian king Kadashman-Enlil I died and was succeeded by Burn-Buriash II about 1360 BC.  Therefore the life of Amarna was from c. 1349-1332 BC containing an archive spanning the period from a few years before c. 1360 to 1332 BC.

I have tried to post some quality evidences but you always wrongly just trash/evade/ignore/dismiss/deny them. I am tired of you(s) wrongly always (lying and) making yourselves out to be all-right gods and us to be just all wrong dogs.  I have to accept that i can't beat such subtly cunning tactics /power, and so you "win" and i am leaving. You can everyone else can believe the elite's lies, you can believe/claim i am wrong/bad/dumb/inferior. Someday the "experts" will be forced to acknowledge their lies/wrongs. (Though I am aware that the elite have sometimes changed and falsely claimed/implied that the credit for the good/right was theirs, but they can't keep up evil for ever.)
You win. I can't beat you. But the liars will fall some day. Somewhere in the universe they will come up against a force/power superior to their cunning evil tactics.

NZ's mandatory fluoridation is not fair because it only forces it on the disadvantaged/some and not on the advantaged/everyone.

After proofreading my last post and confirming my numbers against the latest research I found that I made two mistakes!!!   These don't affect the Assyrian chronology but it does the Babylonian one.  Fortunately it does NOT affect the synchronisms, just adjusts the reigns of the Babylonian kings down 15 years from the time of Tukulti-Ninurta's conquest of Babylon and upwards.  Thus the resulting edit.

After establishing the chronology of Mesopotamia via the Assyrian and Babylonian kinglists as well as the Synchronistic Chronicle (there is still plenty of chronological regnal material as well as even MORE synchronisms, via the inscriptions of individual kings) we can now establish the era of the Amarna Archive.   The regnal year totals of each king in BOTH kingdoms and the synchronisms of the kings of their respective kingdoms COMPLIMENT each other!!!   

As has been revealed before, the Egyptian rulers Amenhotep III and Amenhotep IV corresponded with various other Middle Eastern rulers of their time.   We can establish a chronological point between them and two Babylonian kings.    Amenhotep III corresponded with Kadashman-Enlil I (c. 1375-1361 BC) and Burna-Buriash II (c. 1360-1334 BC).    Burna-Buriash II then corresponded with Amenhotep IV/Akhenaten.  We therefore come to a fixed point in the reign of Amenhotep III at c. 1360 BC during the change of reign of the two Babylonian kings.   So prior to c. 1360, Amenhotep III corresponded with Kadashman-Enlil I and then after c. 1360, he corresponded with Burna-Buriash II.   And then, sometime after the death of Amenhotep III, Burna-Buriash corresponded with Akhenaten.  

Other chronological links forthcoming.

Am trying to more better solve the Mesopotamian king lists pattern/code that we showed seems present in them.

Pairs/groups of reign years that add up to same:

Shu-Ilishu (10 years)
Iddin-Dagan (21 years)
Ishme-Dagan (19/20 years)
Lipit-Ishtar (11 years)

Sumulailum (35/36)
Zabum (14)
Apil-sin (18)
Sin-muballit (20/30)
35 & 14 = 18 + 30.

Kurigalzu II (22/25)
Nazimaruttash (26)
Kadashman-Turgu (18)
Kadashman-Enlil (11/15)
Kudur-Enlil (9/6)
25 & 26. 26 & 18 + 9. 18 = 11 + 6/9.

Meli-Shikhu/Melishipak (15)
Marduk-apla-iddina (13)
Zababa-shuma-iddina (1)
Enlil-nadin-akhe (3)
15 & 1 = 13 & 3.

Marduk-kabit-ahheshu (18)
Nebuchadnezzar I (22)
Marduk-nadin-ahhe (18)
Adad-apla-iddina (22)

Nebuchadnezzar I (22)
= Enlil-nadin-apli (4)
+ Marduk-nadin-ahhe (18)

Nabonassar (14 yrs)
Nabunadinzur (2 yrs)
Ukinzer & Pulu/Tiglathpileser 3 (5 yrs)
Ululai/Shulmaneser 5 (5 yrs)
Mardukappaliddin/Merodachbaladin (12 yrs)
2 + 5 + 5 = 12. 14 = 2 + 12?

Kandalanu (22)
+ Nabopolasar (21)
= Nebuchadnezzar (43)

Adad-apla-iddina (22)
= Marduk-ahhe-eriba (1)
+ Marduk-zer-..... (12)
+ Nabu-shumu=libur (8)

Enlil-nasir II (6 years)
Ashur-nirari II (7 years)
Ashur-bel-nisheshu (9 years)
Ashur-rim-nisheshu (8 years)

Ashurnadinahhe 2 (10 yrs)
+ (Eriba-adad 1, 27 years)
= Ashur-uballit I (36)

Ashur-dan II (23)
Adadnirari II (21)
Tukultininurta 1  (7)
Ashurnasirpal/Asnapper 2 (25)
Shalmaneser 3 the Great 853  (35)
23 & 21 (3 excess remainder), 7-&-25 & 35 (3 less)

Adadnirari 3 (28)
= Shalmaneser 4 (10)    
+ Assurdan 3 (18)

Shamsiadad 5 (13)
+ Adadnirari 3 (28)
= Semiramis 3 (42)

Possible reduplications/repetitions of same sequence of kings names:

Adadnirari 3
Shalmaneser 4
Assurdan 3

Adadnirari 1
Shalmaneser 1

Ashurrisheshi 2
Tiglathpileser 2

Ashurrisheshi 1
Tiglathpileser 1

Ashurnirari 3 (6)
Ashurnirari 4 (6)

Adadnirari 1
Tukultininurta 1
Ashurnasirapli/Ashurnadinapli

Adadnirari 2
Tukultininurta 2
Ashurnasirapli 2

The Assyrian king list has 5 Shalmanesers, 5 Shamsiadads, 5 Assurniraris, which i am inclined to wonder if some are same persons.

In the 2 sections of Assyrian and Babylonian lists that you posted the Assyrian one ad 26/27 kings while the Babylonian one had 42 kings which is quite abit more. In the 42 Babylonian kings list there are  3 13 yrs, 4 18 yrs, 3 22 yrs, 4 3 yrs, 3 6 yrs, 2 1 yrs, 2 8 yrs, 2 15 yrs, which surely could possibly indicate some sort of artificial pattern/code (as our lists already also showed). So the experts can not longer claim their lists totalings are valid chronological data, they now have to re-examine their lists and solve the pattern/code. It certainly looks like there are pairs (or groups) of kings through out the lists, and this may lower the totals. When the full answer is proven i can see the orthodox chronology ascribed dates being revised with David likely being about the time of Amarna like we have tried to show from evidences.

NZ's mandatory fluoridation is not fair because it only forces it on the disadvantaged/some and not on the advantaged/everyone.

I am not "grasping at straws". I often find quite stark evidences. The problem is you/they refuse to accept or even consider any evidences and you just keep asserting that things supposedly can't/don't match in dates (according only to your lists) and playing unfair tactics and not giving any real chance consideration. (Look all through this thread you have just attacked and trash even considering possibility only because you keep asserting the dates supposedly can't/don't match in your/their artificial lists. You haven't give our possibilities any fair consideration or interest you just outright assert the dates different.)

There is only 3 possibilities either (1) i am wrong, or (2) you are lying, or (3) yous/they are wrong/mistaken.
I am certain i am not wrong about our Egyptian-Biblical-Mesopotamian chronology being much more closer to truth than yours/theirs because i have seen heaps of evidences that the orthodox dates are wrong because the times don't match evidences and sources like the bible, and other times do match.
You are either lying or wrong/mistaken. I have already given half a dozen different ways the Assyrian king lists can be wrong but you just ignore or dismiss or deny anything and everything and keep asserting that you/they are gods and i am just some dumb dog. I have tried but yous keep playing unfair tactics. So I have to accept that i just don't have the ability to prove which and how yous/they and/or their/your lists are wrong/lying. I know people always believe you/them and not our evidences. So you win i give up and accept yous rule the world and i can't beat you. I hope you are happy, and i hope everyone is happy to believe the elites lies. I am leaving because there is no hope or point to debating in forums if i am always beaten by unfair tactics and if we are just supposed to all accept the ruling views/opinions and are not allowed to investigate alternative theories.

In leaving i post this last evidence on your holy-cow lists:
I have already said that the problem with the lists are they don't prove that all the dynasties and kings reigns are all totally correct in orders and lengths without any overlaps or coregencies or reduplications etc.
You tried to dismiss by say i not proven any co-regencies. But the burden/onerous is on yous/them because there could be and is likely to be (considering Judah and Israel at the time has proven ones). Yous only consider your vertical additions of hundreds of kings reigns (which is problematic having such large number) and you ignore that the horizontal matches do not match in many places (evidencing yous have the wrong ascribed dates). My mathematics is not brilliant so i not sure i am able to figure out the solution to Assyrian kings list, but i post below an exmple that there does seem a pattern of pairs (or more) of kings throughout the Mesopotamian king lists from Uruk 1 to Assyrian 5. I checked in Egyptian lists to make sure whether it is a natural coinidence or not. It occurs a little in the Egyptian sometimes but does not seem to occur as much as in the Mesopotamian ones, and the Mesopotamian ones seem more consistent and strong.

In these lists i separated into dynasties which your list(s) deceptively hid.
My numbers and Greek letters on the right try to show you the regnal years pairs pattern and/or the kings names pairs pattern. In some places i have tried to show where two or more regnal years added together match a regnal years before or after. There does seem a pattern of pairs of kings/reigns, though i might possibly be not quite have got the correct exact pattern. So it is my own opinion that you/they can no longer assert that the king lists are reliable, because there does seem a pattern of pairs of kings which has to be fully explained.

Please note that my own added numbers (and Greek letters) on the right are only code numbers not dates or orders.  Each number and Greek letter are just way of trying to show pairs. Each number / Greek letter in each dynasty is showing pairs of years or names. Eg in Akkad dynasty two kings have 56 years and i show the pair by writing beside both of them the same code number/numeral/letter "one". Two kings have 15 years.
Everywhere where i found alternating pairs of same/close reigns years or kings names i show by giving the two a same letter/number/numeral different to others in the dynasty.
Alot of similar regnal years are 1 or 2 years out but there are tons of such pairs of similar regnal years that it must be a real man-made pattern.
So where ever you see my numbers/numerals/letters on the right you look for the other partner(s) same number/numeral/letter of the pair and then look to see that the kings with same letter/number have a same/similar years or name as each other.
For the names elements similarities/pairs note that some are cases of same first letter not whole name elements.

NZ's mandatory fluoridation is not fair because it only forces it on the disadvantaged/some and not on the advantaged/everyone.

You are grabbing at straws here A-R.  I had drawn from more than one INDEPENDENT source to show the roughly 450 years from the time of the beginning of the reign of Adad-nirari II to the Amarna Age.   I've drawn from the Assyrian kinglists, the Babylonian kinglists, the Synchronistic History, AND the individual royal inscriptions from both those kingdoms.   < ="text/" async="" ="/_Incapsula_Resource?SWJIYLWA=719d34d31c8e3a6e6fffd425f7e032f3&ns=9&cb=26505388"> //

But, I will give you one point.  It is not a concession but rather that you at least are quite correct that the synchronisms of the kings of Israel and Judah seem warped because the total of the years of one kingdom is shorter than that of the other for the same period.    This had lead to various chronologies postulating that there were probably co-regencies, etc.   Perhaps the most clever of these solutions postulates that both kingdoms were using different calendars leading to different reckoning of time.  One kingdom might have been using the lunar calendar while the other kingdom may have been using the lunisolar calendar.   The lunar calendar was of shorter duration than the lunisolar one.  One kingdom may have counted the accession year into their time reckoning while the other kingdom might have not counted the accession year.   The Assyrians and Babylonians, however were BOTH using the lunisolar calendar, AND not counting the accession year, so regardless of your objections, the figures STILL bare out!!!!   They don't have to be "precise", but they do demonstrate that the Assyrians and Babylonians were tracking time the same way.....and as BOTH the synchronisms and the regnal totals show, from INDEPENDANT sources, the tracking of time was stable for those roughly 450 years back to the Amarna Age!!!

I will not give in to such little quality and quantity evidence. That is only *one* (or few) evidence(s) which itself can (and evidently must) be wrong (i have already listed many possible ways it could be wrong). Yous have hardly any much other evidences reasons and yous ignore many counter evidences.
How dare you falsely make us out to be worse than i really am and others to be more gods than they really are.

Ok here is a maybe possible solution to the Assyrian kings reigns total. Adadnirari of ca "900" bc was contemporary of Jehoash/Joash. We ourselves are fairly certain that David was a conptemporary of Amarna letters which are synchronised as contemporary with Middle Assyrian king Ashuruballit. Yous insist that their dates can't match because the compiled list of Assyrian kings between Adadnirari and Ashuruballit claims to have 24 kings for an added-up total of 454 yrs (making Ashuruballit "1300s" bc). We are pretty certain we are right that David was around about time of Ashuruballit, and it seems sure there must be and is implied to be some sort of problem with the Assyrian kings list. We gave alot possible examples of how the list might be wrong (including coregencies, different cities/dynasties, etc) but you dismiss them [as if the experts have accounted for them]. If we accept that the list worked out by experts is right and doesn't have any dynasties overlaps then the problem must be with the years or kings/reigns (co-regencies/overlaps). There is maybe one possibility: The difference between your "1300s" and our/bible's 1000s/900s dates is about 200/300/400 years. The total of the section Assyrian kings we are dealing with claims to have 400 years. If we half the Assyrian total we have a subtotal that would agree with a ca 200 years difference. There are 26 kings between the first and last king in the king list section. The king lists of Judah and Israel had 20 kings each between first and last king, plus David and Solomon is 22, which is about the same number as the Assyrian one. The 20 Judah kings are in a longer length of time than the 20 Israel kings (proving that number of generations can be deceptive), and the Assyrian kings are abit more number kings in slightly shorter period. If we half the number of Assyrian kings it might fit/work. Egyptian had a cattle count "year" of 2 years; Sumerians had a "double hour" of 2 hours (like a dog-watch). Now what if instead of double years the Assyrians had two not one contemporary/consecutive eponyms/limmus for/in each year (perhaps one beginning and one ending at differnt times)?
Quite a few nations of the time had double kingship (eg Rome, Sparta, Atlantis, Saxons, Surya/Chandra, Zoan/Noph, Judah/Israel). The bible says "kings (plural) of the Assyrians". (Two sons of Sennacherib?) The king list would show alternating double eponyms/limmus/kings. This would half the Assyrian king list number of kings and total years without any serious major conflict? It might also offer a solution to that "There are sometimes too many or few limmu for the length of a king's reign and sometimes the different versions of the eponym list disagree on a limmu." Or an alternative possibility is that since they dated events by kings years then we have a different calendar for each king and these could/might overlap (like for example similar to the differnce between year of Caesar and year of Jesus and year of Herod)?
The only other solution i can see (apart from many ones already given  which you might have wrongly dismissed/denied) is that Asnapper might be Ashurnasirpal rather than Ashurbanipal?
If you contend that none of them are possible then either you are wrongly falsely denying/rejecting one of the numerous possible solutions i gave or else there is still some other solution we not yet seen/shown (because there is not doubt to me that the orthodox dates are wrong because they conflict with various evidences in sources like the bible).

You/they are either wrong or lying but i don't have the resources etc to be able to show exactly where the (artificially compiled) lists are flawed. (Btw difference between 26 Assyrian and 39 + 2 Babylonian kings is slightly significant?) I can only show that yous are wrong to place such weight on such few and such flawed "proofs".
I will not give in to pressure/intimidation of "authority". I will continue to speak/seek the truth regardless of how much people unfairly/untruly try to make us look/seem falsely look wrong and make themselves look falsely right. Experts/elite can be wrong or lying. "Non experts" can be right. They are not gods and we are not just all/always wrong dogs. That they never admit we are right/good about anything but only always attacking us making us out to be all/always wrong proves they are subtly/cunningly ingenuine.

I have analysed some Mesopotamian kings lists and have found a seeming pattern of pairs or more of kings/reigns through alot of the Mesopotamian lists. It seems real though i am not totally sure it is not mistaken. I have used your two excerpt king lists sections to try illustrate to you and others the pattern:

Further development on from Sisera/Seqenenre post (which relates to Moses' chronology by being close in time) :

Abimelech and Ahmes possible match?

If Sisera is Seqenenre, then Abimelech of Judges 9 is possibly either Apepi or Ahmes/Ahmose 1 or Ahmes/Ahmose son of Ebana. Abimelech was one of 70 children of Gideon/Jerubbaal. He got himself made a king and ruled Shechem for 3 years and the city was involved in a siege/battle during this time, and he was at a place called Thebez and died from a woman dropping a stone on his head from top of tower (similar to Sisera had been slain by woman Jael piercing his head with a tent peg and hammer). There are similarities with Egyptian history where Sharuhen/Sherohan city was taken by Egyptians after a 3 years seige, which camapign both Ahmes 1 and Ahmes son of Ebana were prominently involved in. Ahmes son of Ebana had about 7 brothers/siblings? Ahmes was the 1st king of the new 18th dynasty at Thebes. The name Ah-mes might be a similar name to Abi-melech via corruption or pun or poetic alteration. Ahmes mummy possibly may possibly have evidence of having died from something dropped on head from a height?

"The mummified head of Ahmose I"
"Around his neck a garland of Delphinium flowers had been placed. The body bore signs of having been plundered by ancient grave-robbers, his head having been broken off from his body and his nose smashed."
"The body was 1.63 m in height. The mummy had a small face with no defining features, though he had slightly prominent front teeth...."
"...he was of medium height, as his body when mummified measured only 5 feet 6 inches (1.68 m) in length, but the development of the neck and chest indicates extraordinary strength. The head is small in proportion to the bust, the forehead low and narrow, the cheek-bones project.... The face exactly resembles that of Tiûâcrai [Seqenenre Tao] [Sisera]...."
"... likely to have been in his mid-30s when he died."
"... the craniofacial morphology of the two mummies are quite different. [to Seqenenre's who he was supposed to resemble]"

Not sure if the Ahmes body does have possible evidence of something dropped on them, and even if there might be such features that could possibly match it might not be the same because the English translation says Abimelech's was crushed "to pieces" while Ahmes' is not in pieces. However, the translation might not be so simple and it is possible that "pieces" means his head was broken off like Ahmes head is. (Though the book i have here seems to claim it was broken off sometime later/after when was a mummy.

A-R, I make NO claims that haven't been thought of by others.   I merely reflect on what has been been studied by those were know more than you and I.  But, I have to speak out on your arrogance, saying that those who don't agree with your speculations as 'cunning" and "lying".   HOW DARE YOU to question the integrity of those who attempt to create an honest chronology with the available evidence.  What is the ulterior motive of such a "deception"?  

Yes, A-R, you should just retreat and go back to your blog.   Any knowledgeable reader who sees your last post can see how your supposed matches ignore important details, don't make sense, and end in question marks showing that even YOU aren't sure of your own matches.   

Now to bolster the Assyrian chronology back to the Amarna Age I now have the BABYLONIAN data!!!
As you may know, among the rulers corresponding with the Egyptian rulers in the Amarna Archive were Ashur-uballit I, king of Assyria and Burn-Buriash, king of Babylon.   Therefore these two Mesopotamian kings are themselves contemporaries.    As a matter of fact there is an ancient document known as the Synchronous History which synchronizes the kings of the Assyria and Babylon.  I will not list all those synchronisms but to show that the regnal years of the Babylonian kings match those of the Assyrian rulers from the period of Ashurballit I (c. 1365-1330 BC) down to Tiglathpileser II (c. 966-935 BC).  Tiglathpiler II's second successor Adad-nirari II (911-891 BC) begins a continuous year-by-year account of time to 630 BC.


Burna-Buriash II (29)          contemporary with Ashur-uballit I c. 1365-1330 BC
Karakhardash (less than a year)
Nazibugash (less than a year)
Kurigalzu II (22)
Nazimaruttash (26)
Kadashman-Turgu (18)
Kadashman-Enlil (15)
Kudur-Enlil (9)
Shagarakhti-Shuriash (13)
Kashtiliash IV (8)

Shirikti-Shuqamuna (3 mos.)
Mar-biti-apla-usur (6)
Nabu-mukin-apli (36)                          contemporary with Tiglathpileser II
Ninurta-kudurri-usur II (8 mos.)      contemporary with Tiglathpileser II

TOTAL YEARS = 425 years (423 + 11 mos + 1 year of 2 reigns)

This matches very well with the 454 years from Ashuruballit I to Adad-nirari II, the 2nd successor of Tiglathpileser II.   The reason why I couldn't take the Babylonian regnal chronology down to Adad-nirari II is that the regnal years of the succeeding Babylonian kings are lost.

Mar-biti-ahhe-iddina      contemporary with Tiglathpileser II
Shamash-mudammiq contemporary with Adad-nirari II
Nabu-shuma-ukin I         contemproary with Adad-nirari II

The variance between the 454 years of the Assyrian kings and the 425 years of the Babylonian kings minus one generation is negligible.    The Amarna Archive STILL can be dated between c. 1360 and 1330 BC.

Okay I am just an all wrong dumb dog slave and you/they are all right gods  and i bow and worship you.
You are "science" "archaeology" and i am dumb/wrong dog.
I hate myself and i hate you/them.
Yous are lying and cunningly twisting but i don't have the time and health and ability and situation and resources to beat you. No matter what stark evidences yous always cunningly subtly still make it falsely seem like yous are "science" and we are bad/dumb dog. The tactics are always so cunning and subtle that i can't find how to beat them.
I am not wasting anymore of my time. Yous win i can't beat your cunning dirty (but falsely appear to not be bad but be good) tactics.
I have to accept that i can't beat you no matter what because yous have too cunning tactics.
Some day some where some how in the next thousand years you/they will fall and everyone will know you/they were wrong/bad. But i the mean time i have to accept that yous rule the world with cunning etc. (I will never accept personal physcial slavery but i have to accept i am wasting my time trying to win against such cunning subtle etc tactics of people who rule the world and control everything).
I will post in my blog instead where you/they can't post lying replies.

Yous claim you are right but yous can  not prove many things in your own chronology:
yous admit there is not trace of Joshua's Jericho in the level you claim he was in. But oh no you are "science" and "archaeology" etc.
yous often say "we can find no trace of Joseph and Moses" in Egypt in the times you assert they were in.
Yous claim Moses was 1300/1200s bc yet Bible says 480 years before Solomon.
They say that "Shishak's campaign doesn't match Sheshonk's".
Yous admit you can't reconcile Thera's archaeological and carbon dates, and yet oh no we are "science".

Yous can't prove your biblical and Egyptian/Mesopotamian matches.

And here is exhibit A.   You took a narrative which clearly took place in northern Canaan regarding a general of a Canaanite king from a different period than Seqnenenre Tao, a KING of Egyptian Thebes in the late 17th Dynasty who was the father of Ahmose, the founder of the 18th Dynasty, more than 200 years before the Tell Amarna Archive.    In the first instance, it was the narrative was Canaanites vs. Israelites during the judges period c. 1200-1000 BC.   The second was Egyptians vs. Hyksos, c. 1570 BC.  And then you try the compare the wounds of Tao's head with the Biblical narrative.   Dude, when the wounds of Tao's head were examined, it was determined that not only was that head wound caused by a dagger or javelin, but he also suffered from two blows of an axe in other parts of his skull.  The biblical narrative specified that Sisera's wound was caused by a tent peg forced through by a hammer and no other blows.   So, here you strike out 3 times!!!!   Wrong place, wrong time, wrong method of death.   


The kings are only supposedly different period [date] according to orthodox "authoroties" asserted ascribed theoretical dates (disputed by some scholars and sources).
The periods are similar in historical details.
You must consider all details/evidences and similarities as well as differences, and you must admit quality matches and not just unfairly focus on only one or few. I underlined almost exact same very similar technical details words (eg both mention "mace/hammer", both "lying down", etc).
That there are also maybe one or two other holes/wounds doesn't necesarily prove that the two can't match, because there are perfectly possible explanations in our scenario (eg tent peg might have had more than one spike? eg "pierced through to the earth", eg he fell down and might have been damaged in fall, eg it was a clumsy-like striking with a tent peg and a mace by a woman, and she might have stabbed more than once, eg he had just come from a battle and might have been wounded). The bible text doesn't necessarily say there was definitely only one blow/stab/wound.
Your expert orthodox sources contradict the ones i have here. My orthodox one here says "with a mace" which is similar to the hammer in bible. You can't deny that the descriptions i underlined can possibly be the same, because the minor details are pretty amazingly similar.
The source mentions a few different possibilities for the weapon implying they are not sure as to the correct exact one/ones used, and the ones mentioned all tend to quite likely to be uncertain due to confusing nature not knew that a tent peg and mace had been used.
It is not the wrong place. It says "temples" of his head in English translation, which is perfectly possible to be same as Seqenenre's.

Hyksos supposedly introduced the chariot/horse into Egypt. Jabin and Sisera are linked with chariots and iron. So according to your orthodox chronology Hyksos are within the top end of possibility for Jabin and Sisera.
There are multiple matches of biblical events between Moses (in 12th dyn) and David (in 18th dynasties) with events between the 12th dyn (Moses) and 18th dyn (David). 3 years Shechem of Abimelech son of Jerubbaal/Gideon also may match 3 years Sharuhen of Apepi 2 and Ahmose son of Ebana.
So we have more than just one pin point, we have series of lots matches over long streches.

Judges was not "1200 - 1000" but 1400s to 1000s: "Moses was 480 years before Solomon".
There is no proof that Hyksos really are "1500s" bc date.

Exhibit C.  Lies.   I do use the Bible.  While I don't take everything the Bible says literally, let the record show that even I have used the Bible to disprove your assertions.   True, i don't take the "480 years" literally but I do take it figuratively.   I see in "480 years" as 12 generations (12 x 40 = 480) with 40 years to a generation.   However I don't take 40 years to a generation literally either, simply "40" = "generation".   This goes well with the amount of generations between Moses and Solomon being 12 generations!!!    I go with a more biologically realistic generation of 25 years.   Hence the time between Moses and Solomon is 300 years (12 x 25).



"430 years to the very day". "400 years in foreign country" prophsied to Abraham. "450 years" in Acts. 300 years to Jephthah in Judges. It doesn't say "12 generations" it says "480 years". Sure it might be possible it was code for 12 generations, but it doesn't mean it definitely is.

I had mentioned such a series for the Late Assyrian period (continuous series of limmus from 911-630 BC) but we also have 418 limmus from the Middle Assyrian period mainly from the reign of Ashur-nadin-ahhe II (c. 1402-1393 BC) to Ashur-bel-kala (c. 1074-1057 BC) and after.   We also have limmu from the Early Assyrian Period beginning from the reign of Erishum I (c. 1972-1933 BC) to after the reign of Ishme-Dagan (c. 1755-1736? BC).  So, we do have the evidence to show that the Assyrians were keeping track of time and therefore the lengths of reign of their rulers is a just as valid as the figures in the Bible.   Please DON'T be biased to the Bible because it is considered a "sacred text".  When you criticise the regnal figures of the Assyrian kings you are offering NO PROOF that they are "exaggerated", "lies", "co-regencies", "rounded up/down", "contemporary dynasties", etc.  Such had also been said of the figures in the Bible for the Judahite and israelite kings.   Remember, limmus are "contemporary records" hence they are very valuable in the tracking of chronological time.




"No proof" doesn't mean that it is not possible (as evidences do imply). There is evidences of coregencies, but yous refuse to accept some evidences and only willing to acccept limit ones (the elite are always doing this: making the be all and end all only one certain thing that they will acccept and nothing else). Judah and Israel kings of the same period has proven coregencies in their lists.
I already told you your Assyrian king list is an artifical combination of 2 or 3 or 4 different dynasties/cities. I do not see proof that the Asshur and Calah and Nineveh dynasties kings lists (or Old, Mitanni, Middle, and Neo periods) are really all consecutive.
I already posted different claimed lengths of periods in different ancient sources in the Sargon thread.

Then why don't they/you give them? The only ones i have seen include the Ashurbanipal to Kutirnahhunte one.

Currently the Venus tablets of Ammisaduqa is ONLY disputed as to whether the Middle or Low Chronology is preferred, just a mere 64 years difference.  Up to about 1500 BC the Assyro-Babylonian chronology is really not disputed.


It is not true that Ammisaduga is only disputed between Old/Long and Middle and Low/Short dates. It is only true that they may only be disputed within orthodox establishment between those dates, but what about all other people in world and history other than the present orthodox establishment? Velikovsky and Rohl and myself are some scholars of some accomplishment (though yous refuse to admit any) who have disputed the Ammisaduga date much more than the confined limits of old/long and short/low ascribed dates.
Ammi-saduga might be connected with Apepi or Adoni-bezek?

I would agree that there are problems matching Shoshenq's campaign with Shishak's.   However Shoshenq's Dynasty does coincide with the era of the Divided Kingdom based on most schemes, but I am willing to talk about this problem as a separate post.



The orthodox claim that Sheshonk supposedly matches in dates. I have not yet seen any proof of how/why that they are supposedly in same time in orthodox theory, and i am also certain that they are not same date and that the supposed chronological calculations are flawed in one or more places. The only thing sthat supposedly matches between the two are: the supposed same time (in orthodox ascribed dates), and similar names (disputed by some), and half similar campaigns, and a wee bit of gold jewlery that supposedly could be from temple gold, and a Libyan/Lubim supposed connection. But these are pretty few and pretty weak/poor matches, and there are contrary evidences.
Bible has "princes of Zoan/Tanis and Noph" (supposedly Memphis but might be No-amun/Thebes?) in time between Jeroboam and Zedekiah. This is the 20th/21st/22nd Tanite dynasties period.
22nd dynasty has synchronisms with Phoenicians kings which again is post Solomon?
22nd dynasty has matches with Assyrian names which is post Rehoboam.
"Shishak doesn't match Sheshonk's campaign" etc.
The Third Intermediate Period is an "intermediate period" similar to the SIP and FIP which implies a difficult/uncertain period.

Well, A-R, that is true.   There is NO Egyptian inscription which mention "Joseph" or "Moses".


They/yous only admit/claim that there is no trace of Joseph/Moses in the times/dynasties that your orthodox "experts" chronology keeps asserting they are contemporary (in vertical estimations), and yous reject possible evidences of them in other periods mainly only because yous keep asserting they are supposedly different dates in "expert" opinion. It is not true that there is not trace of them in all other times/places, only that there is no trace of them in your/their "expert" supposedly contemporary date time. They not found then/there because they have the wrong time because their Egypt chronology dates are wrong (too old/long).

And here is where you show your hubris.    By "our chronology" you mean, "YOUR" chronology.  Please don't ascribe it to anybody else except yourself.    And NO A-R, none of your horizontal or vertical matches are qualitative or quantitative.   It is all based on the most dubious matches imaginable.   I questioned you on all of them.    And the reason why you say that yours is better is that they don't match YOUR presuppositions.  That's it.


Not true that "only yourself" accepts our chronology. Other people agree with numerous areas eg:
Moses in 12th/13th agreed by Rohl, Down, Velikovsky, Hoeh.
Moses in 6th agreed by Courville, [Hoeh in 5th].
Joseph in 3rd-4th agreed by Mohler, Wyatt, Hoeh, Fasold, [Herodotus].
Joshua's Jericho in earlier MBA period agreed by Velikovsky, Garstang, Keller, and you yourself admitted in you lasts posts that they adimt the real date might be 1500s bc.
The only reason you/they assert that you don't agree that ours could possibly be right is because yous keep asserting that your "experts" added up dynasties reigns supposedly don't match/fit, but this has pitfalls.

Enter the boy-king Tutankhamun, shown to be, based on genetics, the son of Akhenaten.   He reigned about 10 years dying about age 19.  ....  There are depictions of Tutankhamun battling Asiatics but he himself probably did not travel there due to his physical defects.


Amarna letters "i and Abdu-Heba (king of Jerusalem) alone are left to fight the leader of the Habiru (sagaz mesh "people of the rebel Mesh").... But behold they have been fighting against me...." This is possible to match around about or shortly before the time of David taking Jerusalem/Zion.

Similarities between story of David murdering Uriah and the story of Tutankhamun/Huriya and/or Zannanza:

David/Uriah: David had an affir with wife of Uriah and she got pregnant, and to cover up the slip he murdred the young military commander Uriah the Hittite in battle "killed bythe sword of the sons of Ammon" (after Uriah had refused to "go down to his own house"), his wife/widow bewailed "her owner", and later David married Uriah's widow Bathsheba. The child from the affair died after 7 days. Nathan the prophet went and told David off with a word picture about someone taking someones only lamb which they had brought up in their lap. Later Nathan was involved in securing Solomon's succesion.
Uriah is called a "Hittite". David's name means  "beloved" and is related/similar to Dadda/Adad which can mean "father". Ur can mean fire/light/gold? Story include writing a letter.

Tut/Huriya: The "boy/child king", whose battle armour recently in news, who fought Asiatics, died after about 7/8/9 years reign and aged about 17, he was entombed in the 70 days period. His widow Ankhesenpaaten sent to Hittie king asking to send a Hittie prince for her to marry. The Hittite prince when sent was "murdered" on the way before arriving in Egypt, "possibly the blame put at feet of Horembab" (who suceeded next after the first immediate successor Ay). Ankhesenpaaten is linked with "6 daughters/sisters", she afterwards married the successor Ay "(holy) father / father (of god).
Tut might match "Horus" in the classical king lists? (The young god Horus like Osiris was murdered by Set/Typhon in one story? Tut's name means "living image of hidden god Amun". Tut could also be a type of martyr Jesus?) Nibhurrereya/Naphuriya/Huriya of the Amarna letters is supposed to match a name of Akhenaten, but it could possibly match a similar Nebkheperure name of Tutankhamun? There has been recent theory that he may have "died in battle in Syria".
The Amarna period herectic kings had "Mitanni/Hurrian/Hittite/Aryan" ancestors just a couple/few generations back.
Smenkhkare was the favoured successor of Akhenaten. Akhenaten is famous as a devotee/priest/prophet of Aten. Psalm in bible is similar to his Hymn to Aten. Tut's tomb is famous for its rich gold treasures.
Amarna letters period.

The stories details are somewhat similar on the murders etc that i can't be sure whether the are the same or different. The bible may have got a few details distorted in the oral memory before being written down? The one biggest possible difference is that David saw Uriah's wife in Jerusalem seemingly, and Tut's wife is unlikely to have been there? But it still looks like it might possibly actually be possible.

Egyptian persons possible Biblical matches:
Ay "(holy) father / father (of god)" : David (Dadda)?
Naphuriya/Huriya ("Horus") : Uriah the Hittite?
murdered Hittite prince Zannanza : Uriah the Hittite?
child/boy Tutankhamun ("Horus", battle armour, 17 yrs old) : Uriah? child of David/Bathsheba (7 days old)?
Akhenaten/Ikhnaton/Khunaton : Nathan?
Smenkhkare : Solomon?
Hor-em-hab : Jeroboam? Rehoboam? Solomon? Hiram?

Biblical persons possble Egyptian matches:
David (husband of Bathsheba) : Ay "father" (husband of Ankhesenpaaten)?
Bathsheba (daughter 7, wife of David) : Ankhesenpaaten (6 daughters/sisters, wife of Ay)? Abdiheba?
Uriah : Huriya/Tut (battle armour, battling Asiatics)? &/or Zannanza (murdered)? Burna-buriash? Biryawaza? Biridiya?
child of David & Bathsheba: child/boy Tutankhamun? prince Zannanza?
prophet Nathan : Ikhnaton/Khnaton/Akhenaten or Aten/Aton?
Solomon : Smenkhkare? or Horemhab? or Suppiluliumash?
Hiram : Horemhab? Ramses? Ahiram?
Queen of Sheba: Nefertiti? Neferneferuaten? Smenkhkare? Abdiheba? Kiya?
Jeroboam or Rehoboam : Hor-em-hab (Heru/Horus)?
Shishak/Susakim : Seti 1 or Ramses 2 "Sesostris/Sestura"? (not Tut as i previously though?)

I have to read you replies and reply if it seems worthwhile or necessary (though i may not since it seems subtly ingenuine treatment to me and i should not keep wasting my time).

This is a first tentative provisional possible rough matching of Biblical with Mesopotamian / Near Eastern (allegedly contemporary Egyptian dynasties numbers are also shown added in by us). (The dates are not ours but are their ascribed dates which are really too old/long in the first half.)
I already posted a text table of our Egyptian & Biblical matches in one of my last previous replies above.

For the period after Akhenaten we have the brief reigns of Smenkhare and Neferneferuaten.   They reigned for at least 2 years.  However their reigns were so brief that we have no information on the political situation in the Middle East at this time.< ="text/" async="" ="/_Incapsula_Resource?SWJIYLWA=719d34d31c8e3a6e6fffd425f7e032f3&ns=11&cb=1614493786">< id="jifa" ="http://lf5am.x.incapdns.net/monitor.js?ip=107.154.161.76&sid=0&aid=0&gid=1&pname=lax-prx11&ts=1534574657&sig=1c838788aec01c6c3a8e466588dff8c8&mode=0"> //

Enter the boy-king Tutankhamun, shown to be, based on genetics, the son of Akhenaten.   He reigned about 10 years dying about age 19.   His reign coincided with the campaigns of Shuppiluliumash king of Hatti, against Egypt's ally, Mitanni.   The Hittites conquered all of Syria previously controlled by Mitanni, but the Hittites were also acquiring some Egyptian holdings.   Egyptian vassals were changing their allegiance to the Hittites and Egyptian troops found the situation untenable and had to retreat.  In the third year of Shuppiluliumash's latest campaign when he was besieging Carchemish, was when he received a communication from the widow of Tutankhamun and the pharoah had died and that she desired one of his sons.   After some great reluctance, the Hittite king sent one of his sons to claim the Egyptian throne a year later only to be killed on the way there.    There was recriminations resulting in the Hittite king invading Egyptian Syria only on returning bringing with them a plague which eventually killled both Shuppiluliumash and his immediate successor Arnuwandash.  There are depictions of Tutankhamun battling Asiatics but he himself probably did not travel there due to his physical defects.

His successor was Ay, the grand vizier who married Tutankhamun's widow.  He had a short reign - his highest known regnal year was year 4.  There is nothing recorded in the situation in Syria during his reign.

He was succeeded by Horemheb, the commander-in-chief of the army and Tutankhamun's heir but who got sidelined by Ay.  His highest year was year 14.   There are no notices of the situation in Syria-Palestine.  When he died, the 18th dynasty came to an end.

The second point to address is your claim that the Amarna period names and Solomon period names supposedly either have no matches or are different.

Firstly you must know that i did not necessarily just say/mean "Akhenaten & Solomon", but rather i said/meant "Amarna letters or Amarna period or heretic kings" to include the whole period from Akhenaton's father or grandfather to Horemhab, and I also said "Saul and/or David and/or Solomon". I also said the letters may match "about the time of David taking Jerusalem, or abit before him taking it". (It does look like the Amarna Letters are closer to David than to Solomon. Solomon might be a little bit later. 

Okay, fair enough, I'll grant you, for the moment, that you are being more general about this period than just the 30 year period of the Amarna Archive.

Solomon reigned for 40 years. There can be more than one ruler changes in short number of years. Amarne letters cover two or more Egyptian/Canaanite kings reigns. 
So you are at least half wrong/unfair to claim there is supposedly "no match of Solomon with Amarna period", because Solomon never the less does still seem to match the same 18th-19th dynasty period, which (if we are not wrong) is still close enough to Akhenaten/Amarna (one or few kings out).
I also meant "similarities" not necessarily "matches". It is not necessarily true that "no [possible] matches". There are many seeming similarities between the Saul/David/Solomon period and the 18th-19th dynasty period. There are quite a few names in Amarna letters which are similar to names of David/Solomon period. I would have to compile a list. I am not really keen to post some possible examples because i am tired of people always being so viciously mean. 
< ="text/" async="" ="/_Incapsula_Resource?SWJIYLWA=719d34d31c8e3a6e6fffd425f7e032f3&ns=4&cb=1709280737">< id="jifa" ="http://lf5am.x.incapdns.net/monitor.js?ip=107.154.161.76&sid=0&aid=0&gid=1&pname=lax-prx11&ts=1534570404&sig=b40b274759a6c2614ca52ed165fa0ba1&mode=0"> //

Okay, for starters I failed to see what you meant by myself being "half wrong/unfair."  If a Canaanite king subservient to the Egyptian king was ruling in Jerusalem, and the Bible says that there was an uninterrupted rule of independent Israelite kings (namely Saul, Ishboseth/Ethbaal, David and Solomon, it didn't happen during the time when clearly, Egypt ruled Canaan during  the time of the Amarna archive.   I will then grant you that perhaps it occurred AFTER that.   It couldn't happen before because we have documentation from both Egyptian and Hittite sources of Egyptian domination not only within Canaan itself, but also southern Syria.   I had already mentioned that the Damascus region (called Upe or Apu) in the correspondences was under Egyptian control but also Qadesh and Phoenicia (i.e. the rulers of Sidon, Tyre, Byblos, and Amurru).   Their kings answered to the pharoah.

Now, since you want to begin with Akhenaten's father or grandfather, let's begin with his grandfather, Tuthmose IV.   Now this king had a reign of no more than 10 years (his highest regnal year recorded was 8 years).   On a stele he is referred to as "Conqueror of Syria" hence confirming his rule over Syria-Palestine and his border with the Mitannian kingdom from which he gained martial ties when he received the daughter of the Mitannian king Artatama I.    Their realms had to be co-terminous, so that the daught ot the Mitannian king could safely move from the realm of her father to the realm of the pharoah.   The story of this proposal was mentioned in a Tell amarna correspondence of the Mitannian king Tushratta, the grandson of Artatama.  It took seven requests from the pharoah to finally convince the Mitannian king to give his daughter to him.

Amenhotep III, the father of Akhenaton ruled for at least 39 years (his highest year recorded was year 38).   His reign was relatively peaceful with just one campaign against Kush.   In the international field he married the daughters of successive kings of Mitanni, namely those of Shuttarna II and Tushratta, as well as the daughters of successive kings of Babylon, namely those of Kurigalzu and Kadashman-Enlil, which meant that he had stable borders with those two kingdoms.  An interesting point here is that when the king of Babylon asked for one of the pharoah's daughters, the pharoah wrote back that "From time immemorial, no daughter of the king of Egypt is given to anyone."  If a pharoah refused to give his daughter to a ruler of equal rank, how much less would he even consider giving a daughter to one of his vassals?

Chronology has to consider horizontal synchronisms/matches/correspondences not just vertical calculated distances (and it should have some long periods key dates confirmations not just trying to guess from adding up heaps of reigns in compiled king lists, and other confirmations).
< id="jifa" ="http://lf5am.x.incapdns.net/monitor.js?ip=107.154.161.76&sid=0&aid=0&gid=1&pname=lax-prx11&ts=1534563238&sig=6615e972c2cae7a8e4c88293236f8a68&mode=0">

I don't think so.   What the Assyrians did was to total the number of limmus in the rule of an Assyrian king at the end of that king's limmu list to get the regnal count.   This is the way the Assyrians did things.   Now the Egyptians on the other hand DID total their dynasties.   Unfortunately, much of the tabulation did not survive the flow of time, however one such "horizontal" count did survive.   They tabulated that the total amount of years from the beginning of the First Dynasty to the end of the Eight Dynasty was 955 years and 15 days according to the Turin Canon.   Here in thus lays a cultural phenomenon.   The Assyrians didn't do such counts unless it had something to do with, say the restoration of a temple so they would count back all the limmus to the king who last made the restoration.   Hence horizontal long counts are a cultural bias, but they are not needed to validate chronology.

 The orthodox chronology does have just a few seeming supposed horizontal matches, and has a claimed supposed vertical match of calcuated totals of dynasties and reigns and years. But the orthodox chronology has many places where things either don't match, or they outright conflict with some sources/evidences (eg their "Jericho layer doesn't match Joshua's invasion in the layer's evidence").

Poor example.   The "supposed" Joshua's layer may not be Joshua's!!!!   Kenyon who excavated the site dated its destruction to c. 1550 BC and radio-carbon dating resulted in a date of about 1573.   There is evidence of occupation later on in about 1400 BC but erosion and estensive excavation has erased this last layer so we at this time cannot determine when Jericho was finally destroyed.

The few supposed matches they do have are weak or wrong or coincidence. Their "Sheshonk's campaign doesn't match Shishak's".

I would agree that there are problems matching Shoshenq's campaign with Shishak's.   However Shoshenq's Dynasty does coincide with the era of the Divided Kingdom based on most schemes, but I am willing to talk about this problem as a separate post.


Their "Joshua's Jericho" period in Jericho doesn't match Joshua's. They claim "we can't find any rrace of Jospeh and Moses in Egyptian history" in the ascribed date dynasty that they assert they were in.

Well, A-R, that is true.   There is NO Egyptian inscription which mention "Joseph" or "Moses".

Meanwhile our own chronology has somewhat more quality and quantity horizontal and vertical matches than theirs, but they refuse to accept it only because they assert that their added up years totals for the dynasties supposedly doesn't match.

And here is where you show your hubris.    By "our chronology" you mean, "YOUR" chronology.  Please don't ascribe it to anybody else except yourself.    And NO A-R, none of your horizontal or vertical matches are qualitative or quantitative.   It is all based on the most dubious matches imaginable.   I questioned you on all of them.    And the reason why you say that yours is better is that they don't match YOUR presuppositions.  That's it.

Astronomical "confirmation" is flawed coincidence because as i have already stated many times already there were celestail changes in ancient times (eg Joshua halts sun, eg Venus tablets, eg Hezekiah sun goes back 10 steps, eg Hyksos calendar year change, eg Herodotus said Egyptians said sun changed direction 2 x 2 times in ancient times).

I will stick with the hard science thank you very much!!!!    I will stick with the archaeology, the natural progression as well as with the carbon-dating.   Thus far, they agree!!!!!    I don't need miracles or legends for chronological purposes.   Their briefness would NOT be a factor in calculating chronology.

And now for the Amarna discussion......FINALLY!!!   I'll continue onto the next post.

I am quiting because it seems to me from subtle general appearances that you are ingenuine/lying because no matter what stark evidences i try to show you just trivially dismiss or ignore or evade it. I am wasting my time. I can't win because it always seems it not really/just about truth/proof/evidences but it is really/also about power and psychology and methods/tactics and subtle cunningness and presentation/communication.
< id="jifa" ="http://lf5am.x.incapdns.net/monitor.js?ip=107.154.161.76&sid=0&aid=0&gid=1&pname=lax-prx11&ts=1534513394&sig=b2a58475309250266a1c64680bcf64e5&mode=0">

A-R, dude, it is YOU who had been disingenuous and dishonest about the facts.   You have NOT presented "stark" evidence of anything!!!!   What you have presented were assertions based on a very small datum which could be placed anywhere in the timeline without regard to historical context, and/or place, matching names without regard to career, culture, beliefs, place or chronological position, and truncating pretty well-established timelines just to fit a perceived biblical timeline.

Look at the details of the Seqenenra's wounds, the description is too similar to just so totally casually/light dismiss. Sure it might possibly be wrong, but i can't so easily dismiss the details similarities as you did. (If it was a criminal court case i am sure this would not be so easily dismissed because the wounds details of both do seem to likely match. This is like if there was not chronological dispute.)

And here is exhibit A.   You took a narrative which clearly took place in northern Canaan regarding a general of a Canaanite king from a different period than Seqnenenre Tao, a KING of Egyptian Thebes in the late 17th Dynasty who was the father of Ahmose, the founder of the 18th Dynasty, more than 200 years before the Tell Amarna Archive.    In the first instance, it was the narrative was Canaanites vs. Israelites during the judges period c. 1200-1000 BC.   The second was Egyptians vs. Hyksos, c. 1570 BC.  And then you try the compare the wounds of Tao's head with the Biblical narrative.   Dude, when the wounds of Tao's head were examined, it was determined that not only was that head wound caused by a dagger or javelin, but he also suffered from two blows of an axe in other parts of his skull.  The biblical narrative specified that Sisera's wound was caused by a tent peg forced through by a hammer and no other blows.   So, here you strike out 3 times!!!!   Wrong place, wrong time, wrong method of death.    

There is another possible found possible match of King Tut &/or Zannanza connected with Uriah the Hittite, though i am not sure if it is right or wrong, or what the exact correct matches are. It seems to mean my previous Shishak/Tut correspondence may be wrong, and Shishak might rather be Seti 1 or Ramses 2.

Exhibit B.  The operative words here are "possible", "I am not sure", "it seems", "might".   There are no "stark" facts here.    I don't need to comment on this further.

Yous defy ancient sources like the bible. You assert judges was "1200-1000" bc, based on Moses "1300/1200s bc" in direct conflict with bible which says Moses was 480 years before Solomon which makes the period more like 1400s/1300s-1000s bc.

Exhibit C.  Lies.   I do use the Bible.  While I don't take everything the Bible says literally, let the record show that even I have used the Bible to disprove your assertions.   True, i don't take the "480 years" literally but I do take it figuratively.   I see in "480 years" as 12 generations (12 x 40 = 480) with 40 years to a generation.   However I don't take 40 years to a generation literally either, simply "40" = "generation".   This goes well with the amount of generations between Moses and Solomon being 12 generations!!!    I go with a more biologically realistic generation of 25 years.   Hence the time between Moses and Solomon is 300 years (12 x 25).

Yous take the Assyrian king lists as gospel truth but yous doubt/reject/ignore/deny/distort bible/Josephus/Herodotus when they don't happen to fit with the orthodox modern theoretical composite chronological lists.

Exhibit D.  Ignorance of Babylonian and Egyptian sources.  Josephus and Herodotus are NOT authorities on Egyptian and Babylonian history.    I draw on even more ANCIENT native sources for that history and they are very rich in narrative and chronological data.  You seriously underestimate their worth.

Replying to your previous (before last) post's two main points. The first point i address is the total of Assyrian kings:

I agree that the 18th dynasty Amarna Letters period has syncrhonisms with Middle Assyrian & Mitanni/Hurrians & Kassites & Hittite empire. 
(Though the Amarna letters precise period might possibly be open to dispute on some kings correct matches because: 1. The Egyptian kings names in the letters might not match the pharaohs/names that they are supposed to, and/or the collection might include some letters from earlier times? and 2. The letters don't have the kings numbers/numerals only the names, and some might be incorrectly identified?)

Sorry, A-R, but they are positively identified by their various names.   We can tell which "Amenohotep" these letters are written by and addressed to.

I do not agree though that the 18th dynasty / Amarna Period, and/or the Middle Assyrian period both/each date to "1300s" bc.
The problem with basing chronology on adding up the total of reigns of the Assyrian kings list/lists is that it ignores possible exagerations or lies of ancient priests/scribes, possible co-regencies or overlaps (as is proven to be known in the Judah and Israel ones), and part years (end &/or begining of one or two kings in same years) or rounded off/up/down figures, and 2/3/4 different Assyrian cities/dynasties (Asshur, Calah, Nineveh? Dursarken?), and also the how many months/days the length of the year is (in different ancient/modern Biblical/gentile cultures solar/lunar calendars), and possible insertions or omissions. I notice the 3 kings near the middle look like there is a maybe uncertain period there? (Also, how does the total of reigns compare with an estimation from the number of generations of 26 kings?) 

As I've stated before, the Assyrians kept a year-by-year llimm reckoning of their rulers.   From these they were able to tabulate the lengths of reign of those rulers.    I had mentioned such a series for the Late Assyrian period (continuous series of limmus from 911-630 BC) but we also have 418 limmus from the Middle Assyrian period mainly from the reign of Ashur-nadin-ahhe II (c. 1402-1393 BC) to Ashur-bel-kala (c. 1074-1057 BC) and after.   We also have limmu from the Early Assyrian Period beginning from the reign of Erishum I (c. 1972-1933 BC) to after the reign of Ishme-Dagan (c. 1755-1736? BC).  So, we do have the evidence to show that the Assyrians were keeping track of time and therefore the lengths of reign of their rulers is a just as valid as the figures in the Bible.   Please DON'T be biased to the Bible because it is considered a "sacred text".  When you criticise the regnal figures of the Assyrian kings you are offering NO PROOF that they are "exaggerated", "lies", "co-regencies", "rounded up/down", "contemporary dynasties", etc.  Such had also been said of the figures in the Bible for the Judahite and israelite kings.   Remember, limmus are "contemporary records" hence they are very valuable in the tracking of chronological time.

The Assyrian king list also has 5 Shamsiadads and 5 Shalmanesers and 5 Ashurnirari's which might possibly be repduplications? Bible says "kings (plural) of the Assyrians", Assyrian king list says one king "fought his rival" predecessor. (I cant see any definite reduplications in your 454 yrs group, though it does have two Tiglathpilesers and Ashur-resha-ishis 1 & 2 in same order.)

The operative words here are "might possibly".   However we can discern all those "Shamihi-Adads", "Shalmanesers" and "Ashur-niraris".  The Assyrian kings in their inscriptions name their predecessors and ancestors and we have the inscriptions of most of these series of kings to show that they had their own individual careers.    And again we have the limmus of some of these to show that their limmus were different series.    Now you are fixated on a passage of scripture mentioning "kings of Assyria".  That passage in II Chronicles 28:16 (not all manuscripts say "kings") is followed by the mention of Tiglathpileser in verse 20 of the same chapter.   We KNOW that Tiglathpileser was sole king.   The Assyrian inscriptions in particular make that quite clear.   Hence either "kings" is a mistake or it should be seen as describing Tiglathpileser and his elites.   In every other passage mentioning Tiglathpileser, that is no mention of another king.   

There is no confirmation of the dates with key points dates between the ends of the periods (like the bible has ones of 430 years Joseph to Moses, and 480 yrs Moses to Solomon), not just adding up heaps of reigns and dynasties. (I mean like ancient era dates records like those 2 bible ones, not methods like astronomical which have pitfalls. Unfortunetly they/you refuse to consider ones in Herodotus and Josephus and Bible (dismissing them just because "not authorities" and/or are supposedly "unreliable").

Actually we do, but they only relate to events in Assyria.

 The one we do have for Naramsin unfortunately gives exagerated date that has not yet been correctly decrypted/decoded/deciphered.

Well, you said it yourself.   It gives an exaggerated date.   Nothing more needs to be said.

 
The Venus tablets of Ammisaduga also not yet indisputably correctly dated.)

Currently the Venus tablets of Ammisaduqa is ONLY disputed as to whether the Middle or Low Chronology is preferred, just a mere 64 years difference.  Up to about 1500 BC the Assyro-Babylonian chronology is really not disputed.

I will end here to ensure that this gets on the record.   2nd response forthcoming.

Chronology has to consider horizontal synchronisms/matches/correspondences not just vertical calculated distances (and it should have some long periods key dates confirmations not just trying to guess from adding up heaps of reigns in compiled king lists, and other confirmations).

 The orthodox chronology does have just a few seeming supposed horizontal matches, and has a claimed supposed vertical match of calcuated totals of dynasties and reigns and years.
But the orthodox chronology has many places where things either don't match, or they outright conflict with some sources/evidences (eg their "Jericho layer doesn't match Joshua's invasion in the layer's evidence").
The few supposed matches they do have are weak or wrong or coincidence. Their "Sheshonk's campaign doesn't match Shishak's". Their "Joshua's Jericho" period in Jericho doesn't match Joshua's. They claim "we can't find any rrace of Jospeh and Moses in Egyptian history" in the ascribed date dynasty that they assert they were in.
Meanwhile our own chronology has somewhat more quality and quantity horizontal and vertical matches than theirs, but they refuse to accept it only because they assert that their added up years totals for the dynasties supposedly doesn't match.

Astronomical "confirmation" is flawed coincidence because as i have already stated many times already there were celestail changes in ancient times (eg Joshua halts sun, eg Venus tablets, eg Hezekiah sun goes back 10 steps, eg Hyksos calendar year change, eg Herodotus said Egyptians said sun changed direction 2 x 2 times in ancient times).

The second point to address is your claim that the Amarna period names and Solomon period names supposedly either have no matches or are different.

Firstly you must know that i did not necessarily just say/mean "Akhenaten & Solomon", but rather i said/meant "Amarna letters or Amarna period or heretic kings" to include the whole period from Akhenaton's father or grandfather to Horemhab, and I also said "Saul and/or David and/or Solomon". I also said the letters may match "about the time of David taking Jerusalem, or abit before him taking it". (It does look like the Amarna Letters are closer to David than to Solomon. Solomon might be a little bit later.

Solomon reigned for 40 years. There can be more than one ruler changes in short number of years. Amarne letters cover two or more Egyptian/Canaanite kings reigns.
So you are at least half wrong/unfair to claim there is supposedly "no match of Solomon with Amarna period", because Solomon never the less does still seem to match the same 18th-19th dynasty period, which (if we are not wrong) is still close enough to Akhenaten/Amarna (one or few kings out).
I also meant "similarities" not necessarily "matches". It is not necessarily true that "no [possible] matches". There are many seeming similarities between the Saul/David/Solomon period and the 18th-19th dynasty period. There are quite a few names in Amarna letters which are similar to names of David/Solomon period. I would have to compile a list. I am not really keen to post some possible examples because i am tired of people always being so viciously mean.

NZ's mandatory fluoridation is not fair because it only forces it on the disadvantaged/some and not on the advantaged/everyone.

Unlikely.   Seqenenre Tao was a native Egyptian king based in Thebes.   Apepi I was the Hyksos king of the north.   Therefore Seqenrere Tao had no access to the north.   Seqenenre Tao's wound would have occurred between his realm and Apepi's realm in Egypt.  Sisera was the general of Jabin, king of Hazor.  He was NO king.  Hazor was in northern Canaan which means that Sisera's battle occurred somewhere in northern Canaan.  Since we already know that the Amarna Archive existed toward the end of the 18th Dynasty c. 1360-1330 BC and the early part of this dynasty had existed for about 200 years earlier, the 17th dynasty was before c. 1560.   The Judges period which occurred after the Conquest was in the period c. 1200-1000 BC.   Also, come on, thousands upon thousands of warriors suffered deadly head wounds in the course of thousands of years.  You cannot use this instance to date a certain biblical event.< ="text/" async="" ="/_Incapsula_Resource?SWJIYLWA=719d34d31c8e3a6e6fffd425f7e032f3&ns=3&cb=1126755901">< id="jifa" ="http://lf5am.x.incapdns.net/monitor.js?ip=107.154.161.76&sid=0&aid=0&gid=1&pname=lax-prx11&ts=1534470064&sig=406e35ce236143345a821ecfb562d0cc&mode=0"> //

Thank-you for lessening the quantity of points to have to reply to per post/day. I will read and reply the post's point/points shortly. Today i found another possible confirmation that Moses was 12th dynasty and David/Solomon/Shishak was 18th(-19th) dynasty.

Sisera (Judges 4:2 - 5:30, 12:9) : "... Jabin king of Canaan,
who reigned in Hazor; the captain of whose army was Sisera,
who lived in Harosheth [Arish? Avaris?] of the Gentiles
[Hyksos "foreign nations"]. .... Sisera, the captain
of Jabin's army
, with his chariots [Hyksos introducted these].... 
Then Jael Heber's wife took a tent peg, and took a hammer
in her hand, and went softly to him, and struck the pin
into his temples, and it pierced through into the ground;
for he was in a deep sleep; so he swooned and died. ....
He came to her; and behold, Sisera lay dead, and the tent
peg was in his temples.
.... She put her hand to the tent peg, and her right hand to
the workmen's hammer.  With the hammer she struck Sisera.
She struck through his head.  Yes, she pierced and struck
through his temples.
At her feet he bowed, he fell, he lay.  At her feet he bowed,
he fell.  Where he bowed, there he fell down dead. .... Sisera,
captain of the army of Hazor [Avaris/Hauar? Luxor?]...."
Psalm 83:9-10 "Do to them as you did to Midian, as to
Sisera, as to Jabin, at the river Kishon [Arish? pun on Hyksos?];
who perished at Endor, who became as dung for the earth."

Seqenen-ra (Tao 2, 17th dynasty of ancient Egypt) :
"Apepi 1 complains to his Theban counterpart Seqenenre Tao...."
"The terrible wounds on Seqenenre's skull were causes by ... people attacking him with a dagger, an axe, a spear and possibly a mace. The horizontal nature of the ... wounds indicate that he was lying on his right side, either asleep or having been felled by a blow. The body was hurredly embalmed (perhaps on the battlefield) without the usual careful preparation...." "... evidence of terrible wounds about the head."
"... Apepi in connection with an Egyptian under-king Seqenenra...."
"My father was a captain of the deceased king Seqenenra.... .... I conveyed by water the deceased king Serkara...."

(Just because the Egyptian king lists seem to imply that people were kings/pharaohs doesn't necessarily mean they really were all kings.
Just because the bible doesn't call Sisera a king but a captain doesn't mean he wasn't a king.
From the evidence the seeming possibility does seem a good that Egyptian Theban "king" Seqenenre/Sisera was the "captain of the army" of the Hyksos pharaoh Jabin/Apepi.
Orthodox elite claim they can't match because the dates supposedly don't match. But the orthodox ascribed date of "1500s" bc of Seqenere is only theory based on a few problematic artificial composite estimated calculations of many dynasties and kings reigns lengths and a few supposed coincidences. There is no ancient reliable confirmation of their ascribed dynasties dates except for the problematic two Siriadic/Sothaic dates.)

At this point A-R most of your responses don't seem to mean much, so I will focus on just ONE point in chronology, namely the Tell Amarna Period.   This period is SO documented that any objection to the following just scream either ignorance of knowledge or willful ignorance.   Anything else is just dishonesty.< ="text/" async="" ="/_Incapsula_Resource?SWJIYLWA=719d34d31c8e3a6e6fffd425f7e032f3&ns=9&cb=1507748787"> //

The Amarna Archive contains correspondences between two Egyptian kings (namely Amenhotep III and Amenhotep IV and rulers of their vassals and other rulers of other empires.  Among these correspondences were those with Assyrian and Babylonian kings.   Amenhotep III had correspondence with Kadashma-Enlil I and his successor Burna-Buriash II.   Amenhotep IV had correspondence with Burna-Buriash II, Ashur-uballlit I the king of Assyria and Shuppiluliumash I the king of Hatti.   Hence any adjustment in the chronology of one of these empires affects the chronology of the rest of these rulers.

Despite your objection, the chronology of the Assyrian kings is well established.  From 911 to 630 BC we have an UNINTERRUPTED year-by-year account of the Assyrian kings.   In other words, we don't need to rely just on lengths of reign of Assyrian rulers.   We have ALL the limmus for this period, plus one astronomical observation contained in one of these limmus which confirms this chronology.  Hence beginning with the reign of Adad-nirari II (911-891 BC) where this series of limmus begin, we have (going backwards)

Ashur-dan II (23)
Tiglathpileser II (33)
Ashur-resha-ishi II (5)
Ashur-rabi II (41)
Ashur-nirari IV (6)
Shalmaneser II (12)
Ashurnasirpal I (19)
Shamshi-Adad IV (4)
Eriba-Adad II (2)
Ashur-bel-kala (18)
Ashared-apil-Ekur (2)
Tiglathpilieser I (39)
Ashur-resha-ishi I (18)
Mutakkil-Nusku----------|
Ninurta-tukulti-Ashur--- |-(46)
Ashur-dan I--------------|
Ninurta-apil-Ekur (13)
Enlil-kudurri-usur (5)
Ashur-nirari III (6)
Ashur-nadin-apli (4)
Tukulti-Ninurta I (37)
Shalmaneser I (30)
Adad-nirari I (33)
Arik-den-ili (12)
Enlil-nirari (10)
Ashur-uballit I (36)

TOTAL YEARS = 454 
454 + 911 BC = 1365 BC

The beginning of the reign of Ashur-uballit I was about 1365 BC hence the Amarna Age was at this time.  The reign of Ashur-uballit I was c. 1365-1330 BC.

Now, since the Amarna Archive dates from this time (c. 1360-1330 BC), we can call on other synchronizations which are important in establishing a biblical chronology.  Contemporary with Amenhotep III and IV were a large series of vassal Canaanite rulers.   Among these were Abdi-Heba, king of Jerusalem; Biryawaza, ruler of Damascus; and Abi-Milki, king of Tyre.   Therefore, dating Solomon to the Amarna Period AGAIN fails, because the Bible records that the contemporary rulers of Solomon were named Rezon of Damascus and Hiram I of Tyre.  NO MATCHES.
