None of this proves anything, since the sources for most of your verses have an earliest date A.D., not BC. I can say that in 1913 I dated Mata Hari; that does nothing to prove I was alive in 1913. I would go so far as to call it lies, but as a society evolves it changes its traditions to accommodate the present reality. So once the materials started to be written down, it is logical that they referred to earlier accounts as written accounts.

You're right; just because we haven't found them yet, doesn't mean they don't exist, but it is surely worrying that, given the other very ancient written textual material we have, and the massive archaeological efforts that have been devoted to the holy land, we don't have much earlier biblical texts. We have Egyptian papyrus with writing from 2400 BC. Why nothing written in Hebrew until more than two millenia later?

I would go so far as to call it lies,

That should be 'I would not go so far....'

One other point: by the 4th century BC, the Greeks had founded most of modern mathemetics, philosophy, the basic forms of literature, etc. The Israelites had invented a moral law, and not much else. And much of their law has by now been abandoned by all but the most orthodox Jews - dietary practices, ritual bathing, prohibitions on cloth from mixed sources, etc.. So I think it's reasonable to call them 'rather unsophisticated'.
