Some indie should make a movie about this, The Shoshenq Redemption

One of the Shoshenqs has traditionally been assumed to be the Shishak of the Bible (I Kings 14), but Rohl's chronology claimss Shishak was Ramesses, who would have attacked Jerusalem in Rehoboam's reign, as opposed to Yul Brynner competing with Charleton Heston for Anne Baxter.

The pun is funny, and remarkably, that was the title of the private FR message with a link to a different article about this.

I'm familiar with Rohl, he's wrong about his ID although the general idea of a screwed up New Kingdom chronology is a good one. Rohl and Peter James et al were part of the Glasgow Chronology, one of at least three (and counting) failed attempts to supplant the Ages In Chaos reconstruction, but clearly inspired by it. 🏛
