	AVARIS AND THE LAND OF GOSHEN
		Bietak does not tie his finds in with biblical history because he does not adopt a reduced chronology that would synchronise the two records, though he does come up with a reduced chronology that has worried the traditionalists.
		Bietak did not identify these settlers with the Israelites because even his lowered chronology was not low enough for that, but it does sound as though some of the Israelites were still on the land while others had moved into the city.
		Bietak claims this early Canaanite settlement was during the time of Amenemhet I. If this conclusion is correct then the initial Israelite occupation would have to be moved back to a slightly earlier time slot.

	History
		But, when Manfred Bietak, director of the Institute of Egyptology at Vienna University, stumbled across a description of the hut in 60-year-old reports from the U.S. dig, he saw a possible connection to the building style of the early Israelites.
		Bietak's article appeared under the unflinching headline: "Israelites Found in Egypt." Some archeologists have criticized the Biblical Archaeology Review for championing the authenticity of the James Ossuary, a burial box purported to have contained the remains of Jesus's brother, but recently declared a fake by the Israel Antiquities Authority.
		Bietak says his research on the four-room house, finally, "may represent extra-Biblical evidence" of Israelites living in Egypt around the reputed time of the Exodus.

		Egyptologist Manfred Bietak was reading a 60-year-old report of a dig near Luxor in Egypt when a surprising find caught his eye.
		Bietak, head of the Institute of Egyptology at Vienna University, recognized the floor plan as that of the four-room houses used by almost all Israelites from the 12th to the sixth century B.C. What was it doing in Egypt?
		If Bietak is right, the trenches could be the first physical evidence for the Bible story of the Israelites' exodus from Egypt.

	RamesesMapAvaris
		According to Professor Manfred Bietak, who is in charge of excavations at Tell el-Daba, Avaris was occupied in Ramesside times and served as a port for Pi-Ramesses (the "lake" above the temple of Seth being labeled a "port" by Bietak).
		Bietak also found evidence of Tell ed-Daba being a Hyksos site which was abandoned at the beginning of the 18th dynasty- AGAIN, CONFIRMING MANETHO.
		Pi-Ramesse is understood to have been founded nearby at Qantir and eventually it spread and encompassed Avaris as a suburb, hence, Pi-Ramesse gave its name to Avaris, and became Rameses of the Bible where the Exodus began.

		The literal truth of the Exodus narrative is hotly disputed among archaeologists and Bible scholars.
		The hut was built in the courtyard of the temple of Ay and Horemheb, probably by laborers who were taking that older temple apart to erect a 12th-century B.C. Pharaoh's mortuary temple, Bietak writes in the latest Biblical Archaeology Review.
		Bietak discovered Mycenaean art in a site in Egypt, which he dubbed Avaris.

		An illustration or drawing of a North Syrian cylinder seal found at Tell ed Daba (the Hyksos capital of Avaris ?) of the 13th Dynasty showing the Hyksos god Baal of Zephon/Saphon standing over two mountains with weapons in hands.
		To the degree that the above map by Bietak shows Hyksos settlements (Maskhutah and Sahaba) near the eastern mouth of Wadi Tumilat, perhaps the presence of Asiatics here in the 16th century BCE accounts for the Semitic terms found in the bible, terms like Baal Zephon, Migdol, Yam Suph, and Pi-ha-Hiroth ?
		A cylinder seal has been found at Tell ed Daba of the Hyksos weather god, Baal Zephon standing over two mountains and a snake below them representing the sea, or Yam, who he defeated in Ugaritic myths.
