- Join Joel as he travels to Egypt to explore one of the most significant discoveries ever made in Biblical archaeology showing evidence for ancient Israel. In 1896, Flinders Petrie discovered a stele ten and a half feet high, five feet wide, inscribed on both sides. What makes this find so significant is the discovery on it of a single word, "Israel."

I am 67 years old and still am learning. Thank you
Even after archaeology is dug up, it often remains hidden from our awareness. Thanks for bringing these things to light!🕯
they can't have people seeing proof. it might make them believers in something higher than government.
They've found where the Israelites lived in Egypt. They found there, Joseph's tomb. They found where they were trapped on the beach on the Reed Sea and where they crossed. They found the real Mt Sinai ( in Arabia, not the Egyptian peninsula, which is falsely called the " Sinai peninsula " ) and the split rock where the water came out.
There's all kinds of physical evidence, but how many people, even Bible believers, know about it ?
@@justincase1919 no they didn't. Joseph's tomb only proves a man named Joseph is buried there.
But hey I'm sure you can back all that up. Who's the person that discovered the Red(not reed fool) Sea crossing point.
Who discovered the rock that split open and how did they determine it was valid
There is no truth here. The children of the Creator never knew themselves as “Israel.”
@@vward4871
You didn't even look, did ya ?
Ignore the evidence if you want.
Your statement is just that, a statement.
It isn't evidential, or even an argument, it's simply a statement of your belief backed by absolutely nothing.
By the way, i never said Israel are His " children ", not in a literal sense.
Anyone can become His children, grafted into the tree of Israel , by repenting and believing in His Son and receiving His Spirit and following His commandments.
Not only that, but many people are Israelites and don't even know it.
You may be one yourself.
Open your eyes .
I love how archeology doesn't lie ❤
No but archeologists do. It said "house of david". A cowtown.
this is pretty misleading since the word they are translating as Israel has the plural people marker on it so it is Israeli people not a country of Israel. Israel, as i am sure you know, was a person so this does not confirm a country of Israel at all, in fact, since it specifically says people you can assume there was no country
@user-ho8eb6bq6q No it is not.
That statement is laughable you should reevaluate that
Only the Bible lies
Holy bible is not only a religious book but a book of history about the Israelites and Thier ancestors the Hebrews .
The Complete Holy Hebrew Scriptures is ONE and ONLY ANCIENT HOLIEST RELIGIOUS of the whole planet earth.
This Egyptian stele was the oldest (as of yet) artifact mentioning Israel outside Judea Samaria.
But inside Israel, there are far more older artifacts of Israel’s history. Even ancient graveyards.
The Mount of Olives Jewish Cemetery is an ancient graveyard that was used since King David’s time even until today.
It's like calling British people English. Israelis are Jews and Jewish speak Hebrew. Hebrews 😅. What? Noone calls them Hebrews. What is this the 1920s? It's like people calling people who live in Israel Palestinians even tho they have no lineage to Philistines.
@@aelixaimo the most interesting piece of ancient Jewish archeology is the altar of Joshua on Mt Ebal.
I don't know... There are some things from history. I would say it is the story of the relationship between God and his people. Or the history of salvation, as Christians say
Absolutely amazing find! I wanted to be an archaeologist as a child and this is why! I never did become one, but I am still fascinated by ancient finds!
there is no israel it's been over 2000 years. these imposters have nothing to do with the Levant, The Holy Bible and real Semites like Palestinians and Lebanese , the holocaust happened in europe go back to europe they're not semites give Palestine back you nazi zionists wannabes
This was found over 100 years ago. I don't know why people here are acting like this is news. It's a very commonly known piece in the archeological community.
@@jimmyray5524
This is not proof that they were in Egypt. It only confirms that they were in Canaan around 1210 BCE, and according to the Egyptians, they were practically obliterated.
@@jimmyray5524
Well by that logic, you should be skeptical of this finding. But you're here saying it needs more publicity.

I always figured that the Egyptians just had all mention of the Israelites stricken from their writings. It’s good to finally see it in print. Thanks.
@@Cieloespectral_78 Don’t a ton of pharaonic rituals involve sacrificial offerings?
@@123Mathzak It's only barbaric if other people do it lol
Only in the movie, The Ten Commandments. There's tons of stuff. Even Joseph's sarcophagus, son of Jacob. Not hearing about it is generally because there are people of all persuasions who don't want to be persuaded. It's inconvenient.
All positive mentions of Israel probably were stricken from the Egyptians records. This inscription remained because it says the people of Israel were “laid waste,” or defeated in battle by the Egyptian Pharaoh’s army.
Probably the Egyptians struck from their writings all references that showed Egypt in a negative light BUT were happy to record any `victory` over the Israelites!
I love to learn about archaeological finds related to the Bible. It is fascinating to see how these finds tie together history with the Biblical account. So much more evidence to give that more credibility to the Word of God! Thank you for your work that uplifts God and His Bible!
The only thing wrong with your channel is you don't put out enough videos. Love how you put things into perspective for people!
Agree!
Yes, Egypt is in Northern Africa though it is also considered part of the Middle East and the Arab world.
"won't the reverends be happy". I'm not a reverend, but I am happy! I'm glad that everyone is seeing that the Bible is true and right 👏
Wrong. Modern bibles have one big satanic mistranslation, and that is the word Jew. Yes the pastors are complicit in this lie.
The First Edition 1611 KJV uses the word IEWE (yu-ee) dual meaning Judeans or Judahites. Never Jew.
Salvation is of the Judahites.
Not the current dirt bags in Israel, who are of Satan and Esau.
I saw this in 2018, it even has a plexiglass to protect that section, by now I believe is the new museum in Giza, God willing I’ll go back, fell in love with Egypt, God bless our Coptic brothers and sisters 🙏🏼❤🇪🇬 ❤
Coptic are Greek slaves in Egypt who were brought up by Greek to compliment their masters in Africa
Your enthusiasm is most appropriate. I remember reading about George Smith, of the British Museum years ago, when he found some tablets relating to the ancient global flood; he jumped up and down and evidently took his clothes off, exclaiming “it’s the flood!” I had similar enthusiasm finding a translation of the Amarna Letters, and their evidence for the Exodus. Ended up writing a 200-page book about it.
Egypt officially the Arab Republic of Egypt, is a transcontinental country spanning the northeast corner of Africa and the Sinai Peninsula in the southwest
Hello from Israel 🇮🇱 to all the wonderful Christian community! Thank you for your support, especially as of late in the darkest hours for our country. We promise to be good sheperds of this holy land by keeping it safe and preserving the wonderful biblical history. Hope to see many of you visit when its safe in the Holy land! We share so much values with fellow Christians and together, we will perseve the Bible from close and afar. Much repsect and Shalom alcheem (peace to you all)
Shalom. I had the pleasure of visiting your country last April on your 75th Anniversary. I can't wait to return.
Shalom. One day I would like to make a trip to Israel to see places like the Holy Sepulchre at Jerusalem.
Shalom Shalom over all of Israel! 🇮🇱
Israel is not alone. We Christians stand strongly with you.
We love Israel, but the L-rd Almighty loves you soooo much more!! The battle is the L-rd’s! 💙🤍
🙏 Praying for the safety and complete protection on every IDF soldier, Israeli, and Jews everywhere.
Hello MM, as a Christian I don't think you are being good sheperds of the holy land, and you are not keeping it safe at all. I should say: start treating the Palestinians as human beings, end the apartheid state, and stop the ongoing genocide.
@@tonteurlings2064 Nobody is going to listen to you when you use the word "genocide." There is an actual definition of genocide and nothing Israel is doing comes even close to that, especially when what they are engaged in now is a war that Hamas literally called for.
This is nothing less than stunning that these two statements originating in two different lands, by the hands of two different sources, dovetail together precisely to complement each other exactly!
I got chills as I heard you read what the stele stated. "The people without a King, yet". BOY DID WE EVER!
25 In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did that which was right in his own eyes.
You really bring the Bible to life. I’ve seen other archeological videos and documentaries, some of them are really really good, don’t get me wrong, but you have a knack for really bring everything to a perspectives with the evidence. Your story telling and graphics lay out hard to understand complex facts; and your subjects and content are so interesting, that they appeal to adults and children, alike. You also draw from many sources with pieces of information that make the whole experience very well rounded. You have a way of finding the more obscure details that really shine light on the truth of the Bible. Absolutely excellent work! Thank you very much!
@Alex You find a lot of these comments here. Everything proves the bible exactly 100%, science is always wrong and exists purely to try and prove the bible wrong but fails, yadda, yadda, yadda. It's amusing, really. People are welcome to their beliefs, it only becomes a problem for those few that militantly attack any suggestion that the bible isn't a factual account and everything proves it
'It is agreed upon...' suddenly means it's true without any real basis in evidence other than someone saying this is what it is and that's it /shrug
@Alex exactly,Bible is a lie. Old testament taken from Judaism and new testament completely made up by Piso family.
@@TheCerovec Who is the Piso family?
Edit: Just read about it. Funny story😂 "Christianity was invented by Roman Emperors", just to have Christians slaughtered, burned on stakes, mocked at, just because....they were Christians.
And why didn't Flavius Josephus, as a Piso, tie that supposed made up religion stronger into his accounts to make their claim even stronger?
Some people try so hard to be godless that it turns into a comedy, not mockery.
@@jan_777 😂
Who needs evidence, when you have God.
Crazy that Ramesses II father of Merenptah is often told as the pharaoh which was at the time of the exodus.
Their narratives change like manipulated whether.
@@yourfuture3687 You wish
Hollywoods
That was just the Hollywood depiction. The Bible doesn’t name the Pharaoh.
Unfortunately for bible believers who might be jumping up and down as if this validates their scriptures, archaeology has found no evidence whatsoever to indicate that Israel (as an established group of people) even existed when the Merneptah Stele was carved. At best, in the late 13th century BCE, Israel would have been nothing more than small groups of highland pastoral shepherds, numbering maybe a few hundred in total. The Merneptah Stele was set around 1209 BCE, and names several peoples that were conquered by Egypt in the Arabian peninsula and in Canaan. For the Pharaoh to mention these people, they would have to have been established people with cities and/or fighting armies. Otherwise, it would not enhance the perceived might of the Pharaoh, and would never have been mentioned. Archaeology has, to date, only found evidence of Israel starting to become an established group of ethnic people in the early to mid 12th century BCE. Also worth mentioning is the fact that this is the ONLY ancient mention of Israel found anywhere other than in the bible. Sorry, folks, but facts are facts.
Fantastic work! Keep it up!
Never forget that Joseph reigned in Egypt for a really long time, and his family lived on the outskirts worshipping and living as Israelites. So their religion would definitely be present in Egypt
The Bible tells us they were slaves in Egypt for 400 years I'll take God's word for it he's never lied to me once and he's never been wrong😁
What an awesome find Great job n great inspiration for everyone who watches your video God bless u
I’m not a Smart Man, but if it’s in Gods Word I Have Not a Doubt it’s TRUE!!! Moses was told by God what to write and that’s good enough for me!!!
How do you see this as evidence for The Bible story?
@@defenestratefalsehoods 600,000 witnesses at Mt. Sinai that's how.
@@user-bo8nb2mi the stone tablet said they 1st encounter isreal in the land of Canaan and had a battle with them where Israel was nearly wiped out. So there wouldnt be 600,000 people if they was almost wiped out Where is this battle in the bible?
Also the time line place their 1st encounter about 100 years after the exodus. If they was slaves in Egypt why is this the 1st encounter with Egypt and Israel?
Which Pharoah was Moses uneder and what year was the exodus?
Hay poppy neese, you do know the the 1st 5 books of the bible wass written around the 6th century? Almost 800 years after the exodus story took place. There is no evidence of Moses outside of the bible.
You didn't lie! You are not smart but very gullable.

Well done. I just did a presentation featuring this last week. Thanks.
Definitely enjoyed this. In modern times people seem 2 believe all sorts of lies, but not the truth as written down in the book of books. Keep on spreading the facts !
Egyptians are civilized and they respect all religions and all people. Do not forget that the Jews, before the establishment of Israel, fled from Europe to Egypt and lived there in honor. Remember this.
You believe "all sorts of lies" from your 2000 year old book of fairy tales. People in glass religious houses shouldn't spew childish insults.
@@petercollins7730 fairy tales. 😂 Yea right....archeology proves everything in the Bible happened.
The Bible is not a religious book its a history book and events that happened, in it you will find the only way to Salvation which is through Jesus Christ.
@@DennisBonich Archaeology proves that most everything in the bible DID NOT happen.
And I have no need of salvation. I don't believe in your Bearded Man in the Sky who condemns me. I learned not to believe in imaginary friends when I was 5. Too bad you never grew up.
@@petercollins7730 Thats a lie. But if you say so its must be true right? Lol...
I know what archeologist have found and it made my faith even stronger. They found so much throughout the years , its just confirming what the Bible says, we dont even need it but it strengthens my faith, and im grateful for it.
People like you have never read a book about these things, never looked into the evidence, otherwise you wouldnt say silly stuff like this.
And trust me you will bow to Jesus Christ when he comes back, but by then it will be too late for you to have Salvation. You have all the time now.
Ask God to show himself or reveal these things to you, but dont be lazy, you wont have any excuses when Jesus comes back ❤️
Wow! What a find. I drove past this site near Luxor last year and visited the Cairo Museum and never knew this. I hope this stele gets moved to the Grand Egyptian Museum so I can see it on my next trip.
The avalanche of new evidence bringing light to the misteries of Scripture, proving it right in the process, is so refreshing and edifying! It's so surprising how the Lord keeps "confounding the wise in their own wisdom". Those who have killed the faith of so many with the "there-is-no-evidence" dagger will have to either accept their mistakes and retract themselves, or be put to the "irrefutable-evidence" sword, intellectually speaking, of course. I don't advocate any type of violence towards none, even if those atheist and agnostic academics have done terrible intellectual violence to so many for so long.
Christian apologists love to cite archaeological finds. Often the claims are either grossly misinterpreted (As association of a rock structure with Noah's Ark) to outright fabrications by charlatans (e.g. the manifold claims of finding pieces of the wood used in the putative Jesus' crucifixion). But where religious apologetics truly fail is in the application of basic logic. For this I would cite the impossibility of the biblical account of Exodus.
@@douglasrasmussen480 So your life is so low & empty that you’ve nothing better to do than visit Christian sites and pout because archaeological evidence continually supports the biblical narrative?
@@annemurphy9339 Like a true Christian apologist you demonstrate the penchant to fill in the unknowns with speculations. I confront the arrogant and ignorant beliefs that mythology and baseless pseudo-science (in this instance pseudo-archaeolgy) are true. How many times have Christian pseudo-archaeologists "discovered" the Ark of Noah? By your simplistic conclusions there are over a dozen arks! Legitimate archaeology and science aside, the glaring inability of Christian apologists to apply basic logic is appalling. If you have ever talked with children or a gullible adult and asserted biblical mythology is fact, then you have lied to them and I expose the lies.

Scratching my head and thinking then remembered watching the ten commandment movie. While angered, Pharaoh said to scratch out every recorded reference to Israel but hoo-ray they musta missed this one Petrie found here. (sorry, just a dummies observation)

Please bring us more info regarding ancient Israel.
This is an attempt to prove something that has no ground. Archeologists have found no evidence in any of the Bibles claim, including the Old Testament, of the existence of a developed Hebrew community. They were a tribe mostly nomadic like many in the area, probably circling between what is now Syria all the way down to the Arabic desert. Nothing more.

Bought your book and love it! So much of what you show makes the book of Genesis and the other books come to life in living color.
I'm hooked Joel, thanks
Imagine living when the stele was made and even knowing a few Israelites not knowing that it would be a controversial issue thousands of years later. To every precious archaeological find, there's a generation that had the complete objects and the context of their creation. If you look at a map of Trafalgar Square in London, England, I used to drive completely around it, today you can't because the road that was in front of The National Gallary has been pedestrianised. I've still got my A to Z of London maps showing when you could drive around it and when you can't. Imagine a generation that only has the maps showing you can't. They may believe this was always the case. There are lots of these situations in my lifetime. Biblical critics should be humble.
You know nobody doubts an ancient kingdom called Israel existed right?
@@blacksmoke3113 It's obvious they exist, but the issue is who, when, why, and how? People make statements like they never existed at a given time because we haven't found 'x'. The critic, therefore, argues in silence and assumes previous generations had the level of artifacts we've got today. Then the problem comes by extrapolating those few objects unto history.
@@watchman2866 ok, here's the problem you might be overlooking for any number of reasons.
The Merneptah Stele establishes an earlier existence for Israel than what records before it's discovery allowed. Try and remember that this discovery is over a hundred years old. It was discovered in 1896. When the vast majority of the "western world" was already Christian and probably attributed more meaning to this than they should. The problem lies in using it to prove the divinity claim for lack of better words. Have you ever considered that if a record of this minor battle in a foreign land won by a minor pharaoh without much else to his name, then other biblical events related to the Egyptians should also have been recorded?
Because they weren't. The only other archeological evidence for the existence of pre Israel Hebrew peoples are the dubious tomb of Joseph, which only indicates a foreigner named Joseph existed, and shrines found in the Levant that are believed to be associated with pre Israeli yawhehists. And those are never talked about because they illustrate an evolution of a Canaanite belief in a deity named El becoming the belief in a deity named yawheh. And because these shrines tend to be covered in cannabis residue in the same way that incense is used.
I think I'd probably be of more interest to you in terms of conversation if you would perhaps share what you think the Merneptah Stele proves. Particularly in regard to what others disbelieve.
@@blacksmoke3113 The stele only demonstrates that that's all we have to verify something. The problem comes in trying to make out that the biblical authors didn't mean or understand what they wrote. Again you seem to extrapolate the few items we've found into to those living at the time. The people living at the time most probably had of interactions with Israel married them worked and shared leisure with them. Of itself, the stele is just one of possibly many, that happens to name Israel, but the biblical scriptures are a far greater and more detailed document, that chronicled Israel. It doesn't need the stele. It stands for itself as a greater historical record.
@@watchman2866 um no?
The Stele says the Egyptian pharaoh and his army defeated the Israelites and destroyed their grain storage. That is all it says. It's utterly unreasonable for you to think it means the Egyptians knew, married, and mixed with people hundreds of miles away that they just defeated but did not occupy.
I also don't think you know what extrapolate means, since I'm asserting a bottom line, closed claim about what the Stele means. You, in fact, are extrapolating meaning if you think it means everything you said above. The Stele is a chronicle of the wars of a nondescript pharaoh, and Israel is on the list of his defeated enemies. You're basically extrapolating more from it than what it is.
And again, all it is is a list of accomplishments of an otherwise little known pharaoh. It does help us know that a kingdom called Israel existed a little earlier than all other evidence, but nothing more. Since nobody's ever doubted that existence, only it's beginning in a fabled Exodus story, it doesn't prove anything we didn't already know
Glory to God! Amazing information!
@Alex What you think is imaginary I know is real enjoy your day!
@Alex what you think is delusional to me it is real! Enjoy your day!
@Alex someone is upset with themselves enjoy life and find a good meaning in it there is more to life then TH-cam
WOW!!!! Once and I am amazed and astounded and it's your channel that is teaching me things that I would never know otherwise. And this is fascinating as well as what you said about how they looked at it yeah they lay there in the dark with a candle for hours on end transcribing, that is badass. And I don't think I could do it and it's just amazing the dedication.
And that stone is so large yeah if I found something like that I'd freak out too dude and I hope you do someday
So glad I've come across this video. I've read about stele but this is the first time seeing it and the inscription. And to match it with scripture, wow.😮
YAY!! A new video!
This is awesome. It's been hard to find evidence on this, but I never had any worry that Yah will bring truth into the light. Shalom
It goes against what is said about the Moses story. They was a small group with no leader 100 years after when the bible says the exodus took place. Nothing about them being slaves in Egypt, or Moses
@@defenestratefalsehoods You need to understand that wage slavery in ancient Egypt was the primary mode of slavery.
@@Noone-mo4dr it still dont explain the difference in the time period from the bible or that the writing says it was their 1st encounter with isreal in Canaan to the north east. About 100 years after the exodus was said to have taken place. Also that they almost wiped them out in battle which the bible claim at that time they was winning all the battles with gods help.
It only shows they never had a country , now they do , weirdly . And we don’t even know those there are of the same blood line . Obviously not . Rather way too mixed .
@@The3DProjects there are no pure bloodlines, that is a myth written by rulers of earth to justify lording over others, we are all descended from same people if you are European you share ancestry with Charlemagne, all the way back to first peoples on earth, that is proved by genetics.
I'm Jewish and I thank you for the interest and effort being put into discovering our shared heritage.
Do you come from eastern Europe?
Thank you for effort here. Please move your platform to Rumble for all the obvious reasons.
Amazing.
Awesome as usual, thanks Joel!
Thanks for the lesson
As an Egyptian and a Christian, I approve this message.❤✝️💐🌹
Thank you. Your videos are a treasure. I look forward to them. Please keep them coming. ❤️
Yet another great delivery with tremendous historical and biblical significance. Praised be YAHWEH.
praise the god that love human and baby massacre and circumsision ! he is so cute ! he ordered the humans to kill every babies that worship baal hadad to show how he is great !
WHO ?
@@hamrite guess !
lol, just say Jehovah. Indiana jones did. And and in English it was used more (more popular) than yahweh
The Lord is God and there is no other.
Great educational video friend.
They’re really close so it makes sense, same can also be said for southern East Africa which has mentions as well, there are lots of Pyramids for example in the Sudan and other areas.
Love the work you do because the bible is always proved right and accurate
I encourage anyone who reads this to get Joel’s book “Where God Came Down” it is fantastic.
@@tonyaakaelijahofmalachi45-96 Even the Bible costs money to print and distribute. If a book confirms the gospel should it not be financially supported?
I just realized how they escaped the plagues.............. masks! Safety masks! Well, maybe not but I couldn't resist lol 😆
@@thomastrain7311 🤦🏻♀️😂😷
cant get enough of this.
Great video. I find this so interesting.
Praise the Lord thank you Jesus
Thank you for taking time to brings these videos. Jesus is Lord. 🙏🙏🙏❤️💜❤️
No doesn't prove Jesus is Lord...
The New Testament is author less ..
Old testament has credibility
@@abbasalivanat6412 whatever you say does not matter....rain is wet, fire is hot and death has pass to all here and it doesn't matter what you say, it won't change what the truth of who he is... Jesus is Lord. 📖🙏
@@sramdeojohn4428 AMEN HE SURE IS 🕊🙏❤
For a long time, I’ve been told through other documents that there no signs or findings of Israel from Egypt. This kinda had me doubt a few things with the bible but then you show this! And now I’m at peace 🥹❤ thank you for your videos
Some in the comments are asking for specific data on the Exodus and early Israel. More evidence has arisen regarding the Exodus and Conquest, some even in the past year. Here is what I have correlated from classic and recent findings. (I'm not an archaeologist, but studied it in university and after.)
SPECIFIC EVIDENCE:
"City of Ramases" mentioned in Exodus is a back-naming of Avaris, like New York for New Amsterdam. There, Manfred Bitek excavations has found much evidence of Semites during what is called the "Early Chronology" of the Exodus (1446 B.C.).
Amenhotep II was the pharaoh at the time of Moses. Here is the abridged quote from Manetho 3rd C B.C.E. re: the pharaoh of the Exodus, as quoted by Josephus in 1st C A.D.
“… of their (Egypt’s) principal writers … Manetho... an Egyptian... his very words... they built a city that is called Jerusalem… and Amenophis (Greek for Amenhotep) king of Egypt…”
This early chronology also fits with:
The Mount Ebal curse tablet, inscriptions just published in 2022, 2023 A.D. (Joshua 8)
Scarabs found in conquest sites fit with early date - Amenhotep, Hatshepsut
The timing of the destruction of towns in Palestine (the Mereneptah Stele, about 1208 B.C., fitting with Judges 18:6)
The conversion of Akhenaten to monotheism AFTER the Jews left, probably influenced by them (1353-1336 B.C,)
Date of the start of Solomon's Temple, 966 B.C., recorded as 480 years after the exodus (I Kings 6:1)
Praise the Lord. Thank you. Stay blessed my brother in Christ. From Fiji Islands.
I’m so glad you have your own TH-cam channel.. this is amazing!! I’m learning so much
Great work hey. May God continue to bless your efforts.
keep up the cool work👌👊
A stele (/ˈstiːli/ STEE-lee),[Note 1] or occasionally stela (plural stelas or stelæ), when derived from Latin, is a stone or wooden slab, generally taller than it is wide, erected in the ancient world as a monument. The surface of the stele often has text, ornamentation, or both. These may be inscribed, carved in relief, or painted.
Thank you for your nice videos. I wonder why you don't mention the Berlin Pedestal relief. Do you don't believe that the broken name really reads "Israel" or do you think it is not older than the Merneptah Stele?
At least experts like M. Görg, P. van der Veen and C. Theis concludet that it is probably an even older inscription of "Ashkelon", "Canaan" and "Israel"
