A cute 20 something history geek-ette talks about the eastern
mediterranean during the time of the Hebrew prophets. The Exodus was
1440BC 1 Kings 6, & the time of Joshua was 1400 BC. This was also
about the midpoint of the power of the Hittites, which mainly ruled
what is today's nation of Turkey. The time of the Bronze age collapse
of all the major nations of that time was between 1200-1150 BC. This
Bronze age collapse of the major eastern Mediterranian powers helped
make possible the kingdoms of David and Solomon.
