Oh man! i just read the game reviews and looked at a screen shot called "evidence for the Isrealites" that mentions the Merneptah stele. well ok first off in Egyptology they are called columns NOT stele, second, I have been to Karnak, and spent two days studying the wall reliefs with a military theme. gues what??? no isrealites to be found! and if my guide Salleh, who is a Karnak expert and renowned temple guide cant find it it aint there! there are lots of Caanaites ( which I think is what they are refering too) Lybians, Nubians (alhtough bythe time Karnak was built Nubia was prety much under Egytpian control although a few pesky raiders made it down the Nile a time or two) as well asPeletset. but most schockingly is the fact that Merneptah ( if they are refering to the first one) was not an exapnsionist Pharoah, it was not until Thutmose ( 200 years after) that major expansions into the Levant were made
the screen shot calims that " you may not think the bible is based on history but it is worth while to look at the actual archaeolgical evidence"
well, maybe thay should ask a real archaelogist!
also waht jsut put the shits up me was the spyware that they put in the game to send you christian adds!!! holy fuck litterally! |
