Hmm? I had cable TV last year and I remember "The History Channel" had a documentary about some guy trying verify the exodus could have really happened and trying to locate where Mt. Sinai would have been. IIRC, the "red sea" was actually the REED sea, and "pharaoh's army got drownded" from a fortuitous tsunami caused by the eruption of the same volcano that apparently started the Atlantis legends. Of that legend, I understand Plato's translation from Egyptian got some unit of measurement wrong (converting hundreds into thousands) and an Atlantis that size wouldn't fit into the Mediterranean Sea, so he put it out into the Atlantic, when it was "in fact" an island in the eastern Med. Theory is that same eruption & tsunami also devastated the Minoan civilization on Crete. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
