  David Rohl - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rohl traces his fascination with ancient Egypt to a visit of that country at the age of ten, which featured a journey on the Nile on King Farouk's paddle-steamer.
One of Rohl's methods includes the use of archaeo-astronomy, which he uses to fix the date of a solar eclipse which happened during the reign of Amenhotep IV and was observed in the town of Ugarit.
Rohl notes a gap in the stelae associated with the Apis vaults at Saqqara for the 21st and 22nd dynasties of Egypt, which combined with the placement of coffins at the Royal Cache (TT 320) of coffins, shows these two dynasties were contemporary.

 Shishaq - Wikipedia Light!   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
However, the Egyptologist David Rohl, controversially proposed a massive revision of the traditional chronology of the ancient Near East, and attempted to identify Shishaq with Ramesses II.
A few scholars (such as Peter James), who accept Rohl's criticism of identifying Shishaq with Shoshenq I while not his other theories, have sought to identify Shishaq with one of the other Ramesseses of this period with varying success.
David Rohl, and other followers of the New Chronology, assert that the identification of Shishaq as Shoshenq I is based solely on a reading made by Jean-François Champollion of the text of Shoshenq’s Triumphal Relief near the Bubastite Portal of the temple of Karnak at Thebes.

 The New Egyptian Chronology
Rohl's basic point is that scholars have been looking for the archeological evidence of the Israelites in the wrong place, because they have been relying on flawed Egyptian chronologies.
Rohl shows that there are three more ancient versions of this text and that all three state that the 430 years was from the time the Hebrews entered the land of Canaan, not Egypt.
Rohl concludes that this is a statue of Joseph, and in the process, he reminds the reader that before Joseph died, he made the sons of Israel swear that when they returned to Canaan, they would take his bones with them (Genesis 5:4-25).

 David M. Rohl
David Rohl is a British Egyptologist and Ancient Historian who established a keen interest in Egypt at the tender age of ten.  This is when he traveled up the Nile, from Cairo to the Temples of Abu Simbel in Nubia.
Rohl is most famous for his proposed new chronology of ancient Egypt, which he laid out in his 1995 book called, A TEST OF TIME: The Bible- From Myth to History.  This book explains the close relationship between ancient Egyptian history and accounts depicted in the bible.
Rohl believes that traditional chronologies of Egypt show many contradictions, mainly in the Third Intermediate Period.  He believed that the chronologies are plagued by incomplete and inaccurate data.  Rohl started to study neighboring cultures and compared their historical records with that of Egypt’s.

Rohl attempts to lower Egyptian chronology by several hundred years for the period before 664 B.C. The sacking of Thebes by Ashurbanipal in 664 B.C. is accepted as a fixed date by Rohl and becomes the starting point for his revised chronology (119).
Rohl advocates dating the destruction of the fortified Middle Bronze phase at Shiloh to the LB IIA period and connecting it to the Philistine destruction implied in 1 Samuel 4 and Jeremiah 7:12, 14 and 26:6, 9 (319).
Rohl sets up another straw man by stating that the sparse archaeological remains from the tenth century B.C. are incompatible with the wealth of Solomon's reign described in the Bible (173-75).

Rohl gave up making music for a time and turned to a career in photography, which led to his being commissioned to photograph the Moody Blues for the interior jacket of their 1970 album A Question of Balance.
Rohl was brought back into the project to remix the album when Chrysalis's management found themselves disappointed with the resulting recording, which had a very topical political theme, inspired by the Tibetan people's resistance to the Chinese occupation of their country.
Rohl was nothing if not eclectic in his sensibilities, but not even he could rescue the album after the fact.

Rohl, elected in April, has missed the past two regular school board meetings, the annual meeting in August, one of the two negotiations meetings in the summer, both the safety inspection and the architect's tour of the Prescott Middle School, the grand opening of Malone Elementary School and one of the two survey meetings.
Rohl continued by pointing out that is was his suggestion the board used when deciding to have a survey done by Uw-River Falls rather than a consulting firm.
In the January 2001 interview, Rohl said, "In essence, I want to bring fiscal responsibility to the school district, as well as down to earth honesty, which is something I feel the community is well short of." He still cites those concerns when he talks about the school district.

David Rohl wrote: "Nineteenth century scholars were the products of a Judaeo-Christian world which was firmly rooted in the biblical tradition.
The time of David through the monarchies in Israel and Judah fall in what is known conventionally as the Third Intermediate Period, which follows the New Kingdom period of Egypt.
Rohl would also identify Joseph as second to Amenemhat III (12 Dynasty) (in about 1670 BC) 7) Finding the Bible Before Samuel Another problem with finding Biblical history in really old archaeogical discoveries may be a problem in understanding the Biblical chronology.

 Legend - The Genesis of Civlisation | David Rohl
Rohl does not claim that his is the final answer-indeed, some of his co-workers have suggested minor amendments that improve on his proposals.
David distinguishes between 'myth' and 'legend', asserting that the biblical record is not the former.
Rohl himself acknowledges that many of his assignments are of themselves speculative, based on a study of the names and how they might have been transposed over time.

 David Rohl on Shishak
In 1828, David Rohl reports in Pharaohs and Kings [120ff], the grandmaster hieroglyphic expert Champollion read the list of cities conquered by Pharaoh Shoshenq (or Shoshenk) I in Palestine, as recorded on the Bubastite Portal at Karnak.
Rohl's attempted equation with Sessi (short name for Ramesses II and rarely III) is totally false, and ignores what is known of the linguistic facts.
However, if Kitchen is correct and Rohl is not on this point, one might wonder whether the addition of the H's would also constitute a punning effort (the q is not "arbitrarily" dealt with at all; Kitchen says nothing about the punning suggestion).

 Questing Conference 1999 David Rohl
It is David's opinion that these vessels represent the invasions of a peoples noted in Egyptian texts as the Followers of Horus, the semi-divine beings said to have ruled the country before the advent of the first pharaoh in around 3100 BC.
David uses linguistics, similarities of art styles and artefacts, as well as crossovers in religious beliefs to demonstrate the relationship between predynastic Egypt and ancient Iraq.

 BOOK REPORT   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
Rohl protests in Time that he did not purposely set out to prove the historicity of Genesis and Exodus, that this result was merely the unavoidable consequence of his original investigations into what he and others perceived some years ago as serious problems with the accepted orthodox chronology of ancient Egypt.
Rohl offers that they were Amalekite tribesmen who entered Egypt soon after the Hebrews left (the two groups met in battle, he says, in the Sinai, when their different paths crossed), settling into the town abandoned by those who followed Moses, which these invaders eventually rebuilt as their capital, Avaris.
Rohl uses complicated Nile inundation records from those three reigns to identify the fat and lean years of the Joseph story, and he points persuasively to the Amenemhat III Labyrinth and the Bahr Yussef canal as evidences of the Hebrew vizier s enterprises on behalf of his king.

Interestingly, the Uizhun, Rohl's equivalent to the Pishon which the Bibles identifies with gold, is known locally as the Golden River, and meanders between ancient gold mines and lodes of lapis lazuli.
Rohl's discovery is now essentially seeking to push back the start of history all the way to the beginning of the Book of Genesis.

Firstly, Rohl proposes that Eden and its garden was between Lakes Van and Urmin and the Caspian Sea, with Nod on its east.
Rohl needlessly burdens the book with the "new chronology" from his Test of Time of 1995, which is known to be 100 per cent wrong (along with the biblical "identifications") from a mass of contrary factual evidence.
Rohl's story is also weakened by unsustainable guesswork on supposed language-links, artificial identifications of early biblical and Mesopotamian characters, etc. It's a lively "read", but much of it is likely to prove fictional, not historical.

 Debate Topics: Historical
Until David Rohl's new chronology, there was thought to be little evidence of the conquest in archaeology because the conventional chronology dated the conquest to the Early Iron Age IA. However, under the new chronology, the conquest is in the Middle Bronze Age IIB.
What David Rohl and others are doing is looking at obvious evidence which has always been there and re-interpreting it in the light of new data to find that the broad brush-strokes of history portrayed in the Bible are very accurate.
As with all new research, David Rohl's work needs to be carefully examined in order to be sure that the conclusions he has reached are sound and do not contradict clear evidence which is in opposition to it.

 Mandalaband
Rohl, who says that he has always been happier in the background than performing in the limelight departed from the band he had founded, and the album, an ambitious concept inspired by the Tibetan people's brave resistance to the Chinese invasion and subsequent occupation of their country, largely written by Rohl, went ahead without him.
Rohl returned to engineering, at Indigo Sound in Manchester, working with such luminaries as Marc Bolan, Thin Lizzy and Barclay James Harvest, whilst the remainder of the band, with new vocalist Paul Young and an additional guitarist, Ian Wilson, (both formerly of local band Gyro) renamed themselves Sad Café and recorded another album.
The major instrumental contributions were made by Rohl himself, Barclay James Hamest's Woolly Wolstenholme, Kim Turner and Steve Broomhead (who both later joined Woolly in his band Maestoso), Phil Chapman and the late Ritchie Close (to whom this CD release is dedicated), not forgetting members of the Halle Orchestra.
