Also what helps the Jewish/Christian scriptures is what is called Biblical archeology in Israel.
Yes, but what started the whole thing was Heinrich Schliemann, who advocated the historical reality of places mentioned in the works of Homer, such as Troy, and the Mycenaean sites Mycenae and Tiryns, which he excavated. Before form criticism of the Bible, the critics had applied their techniques to Homer.
