  The Origin of the Greek Gods
The Argive version of the Demeter story places her in 1520 BC by referring to Pelasgus who was king at the time and the enmity between Trochilus the priest of the mysteries (of Hera) and Agenor the son of Ecbasus the son of Argus.
By 1440 BC Celeus was now king of Eleusis and Iasion of Troy raped Doso a Cretan queen or princess and was put to death and this became the source of the story of the rape of Demeter by Zeus.
Doso was then abducted from Crete in about 1420 BC during a raid by pirates and was taken to Eleusis and became nurse to the children of Celeus and thought them the art of Agriculture and because of this she was identified with Demeter.

The name "Hattic" is used by anatolists to distinguish this language from the Indo-European Hittite language, which appeared in the scene at the beginning of the 2nd millennium BC and became the administrative language of the Hittite kingdom over the next six or seven centuries.
Since Hattic continued to be used in the Hittite kingdom for religious purposes, and there is substantial continuity between the two cultures, it is not known whether the Hattic speakers — the Hattians— were displaced by the speakers of Hittite, were absorbed by them, or just adopted their language.
This document, known as the Kadesh (or Qadesh) treaty, was signed sometime between 1300 BC and 1286 BC, after endless and unsuccessful fights against Egyptian forces commanded by Rameses II (see Battle of Kadesh).

 Hittites Information - TextSheet.com
The Hittites were a people in central Asia Minor, who at their height controlled Asia Minor and Mesopotamia (today's central, eastern and southern Turkey and northern Syria) in the 2nd millennium B.C.
For this reason, all the kings' reigns passed mainly by struggles and wars with neighbouring Assyrians, Hurrians and Egyptians, especially when Hittites began to extend their control to Mesopotomia.
Not surprisingly, they signed the earliest surviving treaty in history with Egyptians known as Kadesh (or Qadesh) treaty (about 1286 - 1300 BC) after endless and unsuccessful fights against Egyptian forces commanded by Rameses II (see Battle of Kadesh).

However, the margin of error in the Sothic method is considerably large: it is not known whether the accession of King Thutmose III was in 1479 BC or in 1504 BC (3); and it is not known whether the accession of King Ramesses II was in 1279 or 1304 BC (4).
It is the only eclipse (in the 14th century BC) that provides the appropriate explanations for the choice of the location of Akhetaten; explain the enigmatic concepts of the Amarna Religion; and provide the aforementioned solutions for the elusive Amarna-riddles.
Thus, with Year 9 of King Seti I = 1286 BC, and with 1279 BC as the widely accepted date of the accession of King Ramesses II, which is also favored by my eclipse-studies, the reign of King Seti I must have been only 15 years long.

According to Greek tradition, probably based on Libanius, "Oration" XII, 99, or on the Epitome of the Library of Apollodorus, Heracles was conceived in the womb when Zeus extended the night into three during his parents' nuptial.
Alternatively it is more likely to have been the total solar eclipse which occurred at around about midday on February 10, 1286 BC thereby making one night into three.
Herakles successfully carried them all out, but Eurystheus was told by Hera to deem that two of the tasks had been failed due to Herakles being helped, and allocated two more, which Herakles also completed, making 12.

King Mentuhotep IV (1997-1991 BC) of Dynasty XI (Middle Kingdom) (11), and King Psamtik II (595-589 BC) of the XXVI Dynasty (Saitic Period) (12) celebrated jubilees in their short reigns of 6 years.
Although King Niuserre (2453-2422 BC) of Dynasty V reigned for about 30 years, I doubt the jubilee was traditional and I do believe it was related to a solar eclipse.
This shows that the advent of Dynasty IV was in 2625 BC, with a margin of error of only a few years.

 Hittites   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
The Hittites should be distinguished from the "Hattians", an earlier people who inhabited the same region until the beginning of the 2nd millennium BC and spoke a non-Indo-European language - conventionally called Hattic.
Since Hattic continued to be used in the Hittite kingdom for religious purposes, and there is substantial continuity between the two cultures, it is not known whether the Hattic speakers - the Hattians- were displaced by the speakers of Hittite, were absorbed by them, or just adopted their language.
Moreover, in the account of conquest of Canaan, the Hittites are said to dwell "in the mountains" and "towards the north" of Palestine - a description that matches the general direction and geography of the Anatolian Hittite empire, if not the distance.

I have always had an idea that the Egyptian obelisks, which were principle objects in the ancient Egyptian solar cult, must be related to past solar eclipses.
In my paper 'The Charioteer and the Total Solar Eclipse', I have shown the relation between the obelisks of King Seti I and the total solar eclipse that was observable in Egypt in 1286 BC.
Thus, Year 15 of Hatshepsut's reign is 1464 BC, and, consequently, Year 9 of Amnhotep I's reign is 1517 BC.
