Why is it always a temple
Script #3- https://youtu.be/Q1gRiOOGw5o It has become a pet peeve In making a comment under a news article one day, we criticized the archaeologists labeling an ancient structure a temple. We got one response from a person who said that when his archaeology class had trouble categorizing an artifact, their professor just said to labelContinue reading “Why is it always a temple”
Watch Those Dating Systems
They are not as independent as you may think. One day we will write a more detailed article on them. Both non-Christians and Christians seem to rely on dating systems to get an idea of how long in the past different activities and events took place. Archaeologists swear by the pottery record, but like theContinue reading “Watch Those Dating Systems”

Why there is no evidence for the Exodus
It is not like Noah’s flood One of the things you can say about this biblical event is that it is not like Noah’s flood. While the flood has countless amounts of physical evidence supporting it, the Exodus is rather sparse in this area. In his book, Ancient Israel in Sinai, Dr. Hoffmeier explained thatContinue reading “Why there is no evidence for the Exodus”

The first lesson When it comes to archaeology, one of the first lessons to be learned is that this is not a complete research field. Archaeology is only as good as the amount of information it can dig up. If the information is not there, then there is little archaeology or archaeologists can do. ThisContinue reading “The Limitations of Archaeology”

However, there were a few who did and those that did were associatedContinue reading “Sodom & Gomorrah: Why settled there?”
