A summary of the state of Biblical Archaeology following the work of Kathleen Kenyan at Jericho. The roots of the Minimalist arguments which were laid to rest by the discovery of the Gates of King Solomon. For the full story see the website http://www.KingSolomonsGate.com/
@Larsguy1992 "Jericho is believed to be one of the oldest continuously-inhabited cities in the world, with evidence of settlement dating back to 9000 BCE", which makes it older then “The World” itself according to the bible that claims that god created earth 5770 years ago.

This is a BLATANT misrepresenttion of Kenyon who specifically dates the fall of Jericho by Joshua between 1350-1325BCE!"As concerns the date of the destruction of Jericho by the Israelites, all that can be said is that the latest Bronze Age occupation should, in my view, be dated to the third quarter of the fourteenth century B.C."--Kenyon. Kenyon acknowledges Joshua, but just at another time.This is a BIASED ANTI-BIBLICAL post and misrepresents Kenyon.Dishonesty is expected from ones w/agendas.

Very very interesting! Hummmm... I think they found what they found because they were biblical scholars.
