 Virtual Egyptian - Shawabti of Pinedjem II, 990-964 BC
Pinedjem II (990-969 BC), son of Menkheperre, was High Priest of Amun at Thebes at a time when this title conferred tremendous power.
Streamlined, almost minimalist, most often made of highly polished stone, a single statuette was placed in the tomb, representing the defunct, with his arms, his legs, his whole body shrouded in mummy trappings, up to his head.
One could reasonably argue that kings did not need shawabtis, because they expected to be exempt from any labor conscription in the kingdom of the dead (and they certainly had no compelling need for a funerary statuette immortalizing their physical appearance, as it was already well documented in a variety of media).

 Tyre, Lebanon
It was besieged by Shalmaneser III, who was assisted by the Phoenicians of the mainland, for five years, and by Nebuchadnezzar (586–573 BC) for thirteen years, apparently without success.
It afterwards fell under the power of Alexander the Great, after a siege of seven months in which he built a causeway from the mainland to the island, but continued to maintain much of its commercial importance until the Christian era.
In nineteenth century Britain, Tyre was several times taken as an examplar of the mortality of great power and status - both by John Ruskin in the opening lines of The Stones of Venice, and by Rudyard Kipling's 'Recessional'.

Ancient records show that by about 2,800 BC, cedar timber from Byblos was being traded for metals and ivory from Egypt.
When King Hiram (969–936 BC) of Tyre sent a trade mission to King Solomon, he provided him with cedar logs and with stonemasons and carpenters to build a palace for the Lord (1 Chronicles 14:1).

Pinedjem II is dear to many egyptologists because in 973 BC (and again in 969 BC), he organized the removal and reburial in his own tomb of several royal mummies which had been desecrated.

 Chronology
Based upon the cyclic perturbations of the earth every 53/54 years caused by catastrophic celestial events, some new theses for the reconstruction of ancient history are presented.
It is somewhat doubtful whether this event was, as claimed, a total eclipse of the sun, but to revert to older chronologies based largely on the Masoretic Texts of the Bible would, at this stage, be too cumbersome.
A confirmation of this total is found in the average reign length of English kings and queens from 1066 AD to the present, an average reign length of slightly over 22 years; this is to be expected, taking into account the differences of conditions in both time and location.

The source of such detailed reporting in the scriptures of 1000 BC was, the biblical experts told us, the official historian of the court of king David, like the work itself an entirely fictional invention.
William Dever, trying in 1997 to construct a case for a centralized state in the tenth century BC, argued that a system of writing was essential for “the functioning of the requisite urban bureaucracy” necessary for maintaining control over an increasingly diversified and resistant society.
