We meant to discuss the two chronology problems caused by the EA letters from Ashur Uballit and Suppaluliumas. Will hopefully cover those in the next episode.
@@KennethGriffith_International A book called 'Kingdom of the Ark' by Lorraine Evans. I'm going through my notes on Irish mythology now, trying to find your thesis of post flood story in there. Can't locate a castration yet, but there's the great witch queen Morrígan who has many names, one of which is Nemain. Which is tantalizingly similar to Neemah. The post flood story does look like it is there, just a case of finding the elements. There's Danu/Anu too (in irish and hindu), which has a lot of water mythos connected to it, but it is depicted as a goddess, where you've said Nu is related to Noah, so the gender appears flipped for some reason.
Hello, Kabane, could you please answer an objection I heard from a guy who calls himself a protestant regarding Genesis and the creation story? He seems to imply genesis was based around the creation of the first temple and not necessarily human creation. I can send you the whole comment if you want. Thanks
If Oedipus tragedy was written 1 century after Akhenaten, it means it was written in about the 8th century. But Google says that Oedipus tragedy was written in 5th century. So, if Egypt's history needs to be moved centuries to the present, Greece's history needs to be moved centuries to the past? (bc *Google = contemporary history* says that it was written in 5th century but you say it was written several centuries into the past).
You got me on that one. I tend to guestimate my Greek playwrights badly. But, even if the plays were written three centuries later, that does not create a chronological problem.
My understanding from the first academic paper is that he sees a 12,000 year human history. Am I correctly interpreting the viewpoint of this historian?
That is not correct. Perhaps re-read the first paper? Or even the first paragraph: "This series of papers will make the case that a strong consensus of ancient sources speaks in harmony with Ussher’s chronology of the Bible; as a result, the evidence will show that the 12,000-year conventional history of the Ancient Near East (ANE)meshes neatly into a collection of interconnected parallel dynasties with a total duration of 2,018 years from the Flood to Alexander the Great." Translation: the 12,000-year conventional history fits into 2,018 years.
I've heard that the Omrid kings left the most archaeological traces, and the fact that Griffin can cite letters from Jeroboam II and Ahab and Ahaziah/Jehoahaz seems to corroborate this. Was this because they traded and corresponded and swapped idols with the surrounding peoples much more than the kings of Judah or the later, less idolatrous kings of Israel?
@@andrewpearson1903 Nearly alll of our evidence of any kings of Judah or Israel come from diplomatic archives of neighboring countries. The problem is that we only have such archives covering three or four very small slices of Israelite history.

Meritaten the first daughter of Nefertiti is meant to be buried in Ireland. Fled with Mil when Akhenaten died.

A lot of content. Displaying the names onscreen would help, as the YT machine translation for names like "Ashurbanipal" is laughable.
Mr. Griffith is such a chad
It would be interesting to hear how the ancient immigration to the Americas ties into the chronology
