The Shoshenqs of Egypt and Palestine
Contrary to Frank Clancy's recent paper (‘Shishak/Shoshenq's Travels’, JSOT 86 [1999], pp. 3–23), the stela of a king Shoshenq found at Megiddo belongs, and can only belong, to Shoshenq I—it has nothing to do with Shoshenq IV (different car-touches) or any other Shoshenq. Shoshenq I indubi...

Shoshenq I indubitably reigned in the third quarter of the tenth century BCE, and no way as late as 800 BCE (as claimed in cranky literature). The campaign (and its date in Rehoboam's fifth year) remains historical fact, not merely a literary theme, and its geography clearly reached as far as Megiddo and Beth-Shan. |
