  • Mesopotamian chronology (2340-539 BCE) through astronomically dated synchronisms and comparison with carbon-14 dating
    GERARD GERTOUX
    The 614 Assyrian eponyms between the first year of Šamšî-Adad I and the first year of Tiglath-pileser I (1115-1076) allow us to date the reign of Šamšî-Adad I (1728-1695) approximately. As the Assyrian years were lunar before the reign of Ninurta-apil-Ekur (1192-1179), this makes it possible to slightly correct the reign of Šamšî-Adad I (1712-1680), yet as this Amorite king die...

  • Absolute Mesopotamian chronology from Gilgamesh (2447-2401) to Darius II (424-405)
    Gerard Gertoux
    The Egyptian king lists were commissioned, as early as the first dynasty, by kings wishing to legitimise their royal descent from Narmer (2838-2808), the founder of the Egyptian empire. On the other hand, Sumerian king lists were commissioned by Shulgi (2002-1954), a powerful king of Ur III in the last Sumerian dynasty, who presented himself as the heir of the famous Gilgamesh ...

  • Who Built the Tower of Babel When and Why? (History Begins at Sumer)
    Gerard Gertoux
    Historical truth progresses by relying on authentic documents validated by absolute dates just as scientific truth progresses by relying on theories validated by measurements. However, the history of origins eludes historians because of the lack of authenticated documents and reliable dates. The first king of the first Egyptian dynasty was Narmer (2838-2808), however he was pre...

  • Absolute Chronology of the Ancient Worlds, from 2838 BCE to 394 BCE, Compared to Carbon-14 Dating
    GERARD GERTOUX
    The first scientific chronology of the Egyptian civilisation, calculated by Olaf A. Toffteen in his monograph: Ancient Chronology (1907), fixed the beginning of the First Dynasty in 3285 BCE. In their academic study: Ancient Egyptian Chronology (2006), Erik Hornung, Rolf Krauss and David A. Warburton set the beginning of the First Dynasty around 2900 BCE, a rejuvenation of 385 ...

  • Absolute Egyptian chronology
    GERARD GERTOUX
    Egyptian king lists make it possible to elaborate a chronology of all kings up to Narmer (2838-2808), because the numerous synchronisms between Egyptian and Mesopotamian reigns make it possible to anchor the 30 dynasties of this Egyptian chronology. These synchronisms with the Achaemenid and Babylonian chronologies, which are anchored on absolute dates obtained by astronomy ove...

  • Assyrian and biblical chronologies are they reliable?
    GERARD GERTOUX
    The Assyrian chronology of the first millennium BCE is well established, especially for the period 912-609 BCE, but it is difficult to determine whether there were overlapping reigns due to possible co-regencies. Assyriologists have assumed that there were no co-regencies among the Assyrian reigns. Based on this assumption, Edwin R. Thiele, in his thesis published in 1951, esta...

  • Dating the reigns of Xerxes I (496-475), Artaxerxes I (475-425) and Darius II (424-405)
    GERARD GERTOUX
    The pivotal date of 465 BCE for the death of Xerxes has been accepted by historians for many years without notable controversy. However, according to Thucydides, a historian renowned for his high chronological accuracy, Themistocles met Artaxerxes, who had succeeded Xerxes, his father, just after the fall of Nexos (The Peloponnesian War I:98;137) which occurred after the fall o...

  • Summit meeting between Queen Esther and General Themistocles (to stop Athenian imperialism)
    GERARD GERTOUX
    The choice made by Themistocles to meet Xerxes (in 476 BCE) remains an enigma for most historians. Why did this brilliant strategist, who defeated the imperial armies of Xerxes at Salamis and was a fervent defender of a workers’ democracy rather than an owners’ democracy, go to Persia to make a pact with the enemy? Why did Artaxerxes (485-425), when he arrived at the imperial c...

  • The Pharaoh of the Exodus
    Gerard Gertoux
    For Egyptologists as well as archaeologists, and even now Bible scholars, the answer to the question: Who was the pharaoh of the Exodus, the answer is obvious: there was nobo because the biblical story was a myth (Dever: 2003, 233). Consequently, who to believe: Moses or Egyptologists? Several scholars (Finkelstein, Dever and others) posit that the Exodus narrative may have de...

  • Queen Esther wife of Xerxes

    Very few Bible scholars believe now in the historicity of the book of Esther but, surprisingly, their conclusion is based only on the following prejudice: this story looks like a fairy tale, consequently, it is a fairy tale! No chronological investigation and historical research have been carried out though chronology is the backbone of history and that it is impossible to writ...

    GERARD GERTOUX
    Historians as well as Bible scholars consider the biblical account about Chedorlaomer’s campaign against Sodom as a pious fiction but a chronological reconstruction based on synchronisms shows that among dynasties from Sumerian lists the 3rd and last Elamite king of the Awan I dynasty was indeed Kudur-Lagamar (1990-1954). The route of Chedorlaomer shows that this king came to t...

  • Absolute Chronology of the Ancient World from 2840 BCE to 1533 BCE

    'Chronology is the backbone of history' is usually taught in schools but in the same time the first fall of Babylon is fixed today (2016) either in 1595 BCE or in 1651, 1531, 1499 depending on historians! In Egyptology the situation is still worse because each Egyptologist has his own chronology (gap of 20 years)! Such a difference in timeline prevents one from reaching the his...

  • Did Jesus 'Je[hovah]-salvation' know God’s name?
    Gerard Gertoux
    Michael Servetus participated in the Protestant Reformation and translated the Hebrew Bible into Latin. In July 1531, he published his De Trinitatis Erroribus (On the Errors of the Trinity) in which he explained clearly that the Trinity was a 3-headed monster. Accordingly, Catholics and Protestants alike condemned him. He was then arrested in Geneva and burnt at the stake as a ...

  • 80 Old Testament Characters of World History
    Gerard Gertoux
    Despite the fact that the name of many characters mentioned in the Old Testament, like David, King of Israel, have been recently confirmed by archaeology as well as their epoch and the events in which they were involved, most archaeologists continue to deny the historicity of the Bible they view as pious fiction or a mythical account. They argue that the major events in the Bib...

  • The Book of Job
    Gerard Gertoux
    The book of Job is paradoxical regarding its historicity as well as its meaning. Although Job is clearly presented as a real, historical person (he lived from 1710 to 1500 near Bozra in Idumea), rabbis and bishops preferred to see it as a moral tale. Despite the main question all over the book being: 'why evil prevails?' the answer would be: 'please, look at the hippopotamus an...

  • The Trojan War
    Gerard Gertoux
    The Trojan War is the foundation of Greek history. If Greek historians had little doubt of its existence they remained extremely sceptical regarding its mythological origin. Archaeology has confirmed one essential point: there was indeed a general conflagration in the Greek world around 1200 BCE, the assumed period of that war, which caused the disappearance of two powerful emp...

  • Kings David and Solomon
    Gerard Gertoux
    The David and Solomon’s kingdoms are no longer considered as historical by minimalist archaeologists. According to Finkelstein and Silberman, for example, authors of The Bible Unearthed: Archaeology’s New Vision of Ancient Israel and the Origin of Its Sacred Texts, at the time of the kingdoms of David and Solomon, Jerusalem was populated by only a few hundred residents or less....

  • Herod the Great and Jesus

    The traditional date of 4 BCE for Herod’s death, as set forth by E. Schürer (1896), has been accepted by historians for years without notable controversy. However, according to the texts of Luke and Matthew, Herod died shortly after Jesus’ birth, which can be fixed in 2 BCE. Consequently, there is apparently a major chronological contradiction, however Josephus gives a dozen sy...

  • Jonah vs King of Nineveh
    Gerard Gertoux
    Historians consider the Biblical account of Jonah’s warning against Nineveh as pious fiction, but the Gospels refer to it as a real story (Lk 11:29-32). The book of Jonah, despite its brevity, gives some verifiable information regarding Nineveh, a very old city, which disappeared completely after its destruction in 612 BCE. The dimensions mentioned seem colossal, however they d...

Today scientists believe in the last ice age called Pleistocene ending in 10,000 BCE, but there is no witness of this planetary cataclysmic event and its existence is based solely on the controversial inte...

    The existence Moses as well as the Exodus are disputed despite they form the basis of the Passover which meant the Promised Land for Jews and later the Paradise for Christians. For most Egyptologists there is absolutely no evidence of Moses and the Exodus in Egyptian documents. However, the last king of the 15th dynasty named Apopi (1613-1573) met Seqenenre Taa, the last pharao...

    The understanding of God’s name YHWH is so controversial that it is eventually the controversy of controversies, or the ultimate controversy. Indeed, why most of competent Hebrew scholars propagate patently false explanations about God’s name? Why do the Jews refuse to read God’s name as it is written and read Adonay 'my Lord' (a plural of majesty) instead of it? Why God’s name...
