Having written the above, I have repeatedly from different sources come across archaeological data that indicate that the official dates given in history books are not only off, but off by centuries. That Shishak was an alternate name for Thutmosis II. That the Amarna tablets were iron age, ninth to eighth centuries BC. That Necho was an alternate name for Raamsis II, who killed Josiah. And that Ugarit’s dates were contemporary to Raamsis II and his son. > > Also, the name of abdi-hebba's principality, Jerusalem, > occurs in the Amarna tablets , LB age. > See above.
