Thanks Palter. ...one of the largest copper mines of the ancient Middle East. Among other things, scientists hope to be able to identify the ethnicity or nationality of the people who actually controlled the mining and smelting operation during the 10th century B.C.E., the time period when, based on the Biblical accounts, scholars have traditionally dated the kingdom of Edom, as well as that of David and Solomon of ancient Israel. And how will they manage to do that? If they find any Hebrew inscriptions, they'll throw them out, claiming they were fakes, or worked their way down from much later times. It's been a while since a topic about this, I'm wheeling my way through the FRchives looking for sidebars. To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list.

Guess these “minimalists” would be among those who thought the Trojan War was just a nice fairy tale before Schlieman.

Stories don’t come from nowhere and the ancients were no fools.

While some degree of exaggeration or embroidery can be expected in ANY story, including those about things happening today, the basic essence of the tales are in all probability accurate and Solomon and David and their Kingdom DID exist and were a powerful, although transitory force in the ancient Levant.

Assumptions or impositions?
