In one of his books, a guy named Veilekovsky (or something like that) stated that the whole history of Egypt was off. He postulated that the Hyskos were the Amelekites that Moses & Co. bumped into during the Exodous. The Amelekites took advantage of the fact that Egypt was a wreck after the plagues, with no army, and possibly no pharoah.

He went on to state that the Queen of Sheba was actually Hatshepsut, and that one of her relatives became Solomon's wife. Connected to Hatshepsut (maybe in her temple, I forgot)is an inventory list of items she got on one of her travels. It is almost an exact match to the gifts Solomon gave to the Queen of Sheba. After Hatshepsut died, Thutmosis III raided Israel and took away an astounding amount of stuff, and inventoried that in a big bas-relief. It is, again, strikingly similar to an inventory list of a raid "Neco" did that's mentioned in the Bible.

It made for good reading, and he made a good case for Israel being visited by Hatshepsut. By some accounts, Hatshepsut was easy on the eyes, so Solomon would've been impressed enough to give her "her heart's desire."
