Naked guy? Are you *sure* it was the History Channel?!? ;')
Anyway, dunno who that is, or what he said, but A) not to be a prude, but he should put on some clothes, and B) the Danaans of Greece were not the same as the Tribe of Dan / Danites, neither were they the same as the Tuatha de Danaan of Irish mythology. I believe I've seen both of those claimed in print at least once, but it has been a while.
In his Exodus crockumentary, Jacobovici made a half-assed effort to link the Mycenaean Greeks to the events of the Exodus by equating a carving on a M.Greek artifact with the Ark of the Covenant. Seriously, it's pretty interesting viewing, I put it in the player this morning intending to watch it tonight, before I read any of this thread. But it's best with a healthy side of natron.
