Armageddon Fortress May Hold Keys to History

Quote:

In a groundbreaking new project, scholars are using the rich archaeological remains that soar more than 50 feet above the Jezreel Valley in northern Israel to synchronize the clocks of the ancient world and create the first definitive calendar of human history.

... To the untrained observer, the modern-day site of Megiddo looks like one more hill in the Carmel mountain range near Haifa. But the vast mound is entirely man-made, containing the remains of 29 separate cities built one on top of the other by a succession of civilizations from 3,000 to 300 B.C.

....

Now Finkelstein, together with Tel Aviv University physicist Eli Piazetsky, is spearheading an international effort to settle the chronology once and for all. A scientific conference at Megiddo, "Synchronizing Clocks at Armageddon," launched a project to analyze 10 separate Iron Age destruction layers using four state-of-the-art scientific techniques: radiocarbon dating, optical luminescence, archaeo-magnetism and rehydroxilation -- a new method pioneered in Britain within the last two years.

Very interesting. Thanks for the post.

Now, I now what Armageddon means. Why would they go to Megiddo and not Eden area around Hiddekel [Tigris] and Euphrates" (Genesis 2:10-14) to find a way to synchronize the clocks? Supposedly, the Garden of Eden was found in about 1985.

Supposedly, aliens attacked the world in 1938, according to Orson Welles.

One book that I did not read. I guess I am screwed.

Since it really happened you can listen to the audio document. I know it's real because they stopped a musical show to make the broadcasts. How could they stop another show if it was fake?

aeebee50: They have actual archaeological ruins at Megiddo.

No one has found the Garden of Eden. There are people who think they know where it is, or where the myth originated, but no one has excavated any ruins there that would be useful for history.

Some posters here are making fun of you. Orson Welles produced a fake radio program about aliens attacking the world in 1938, that was clearly labeled as drama, but caused a panic because people believed it.

Thanks, I did not know. I check out the story.

Thanks Toto. If they are making fund of me, maybe they are not making fun of someone else. The problem with making fun of me is that usually something bad happens to them. I do not wish harm to anyone. I knew about the hoax of Orson Welles; I was hoping there was more to the story.

It's as if you've given a dire warning to everyone warning them of a terrible revenge that is out of your control. Can you elaborate on these "bad things" that happen to people who make fun of you?

Is it bears?
