دانلود کتاب Peoples of the Sea

BLURB:

"Who were the Peoples of the Sea? Up to now it has been thought that they must have been barbarians from the north, who swept down upon the Mediterranean, destroying the Hittite, Mycenean and other civilizations, and that they were eventually driven back by Ramses III of Egypt in the twelfth century B.C. The invasion of Egypt was thought to have been undertaken by the mysterious Peoples of the Sea and the Pereset (hitherto identified as the Philistines), initiating a dark age of about 500 years, when civilization was virtually extinguished. Velikovsky, however, provides evidence that Ramses III lived 800 years later; that the events in question took place in the first part of the fourth century B.C.; and that the Peoples of the Sea were Greek mercenaries and the Pereset were Persians. . . .

"In 1906, among the debris of old buildings in the southern part of Elephantine, an island in the Nile opposite Aswan, papyri written in Aramaic were found. ... These documents disclose the fact that in Heb—Elephantine there existed a Jewish military colony. The place was on the southern frontier of Egypt, and the permanent task of the settlement was to safeguard the land against invasion from Nubia." -p.63
