Bible Archaeology Index

The following includes links to Bible-supporting historical evidence in chronological order.

2000 BC




1786 BC: Foreigners called the "Hykos" take control of Lower Egypt, which helps explain Exodus 1:6-10.
1500 BC
1446 BC: Wheels of Egypt found in the Gulf of Aqaba that would have been used during the time of the Exodus. 
1446 BC: Mount Jabel al Lawz in north-western Arabia has significant evidence to the real Mt. Sinai.
1406 BC: The ruins of Hazor and Jericho provide support for the Conquest of Canaan.
1350 BC: Pharaoh Akhenaten insists that there is only one real God--Aten. It's plausible that he was                   influenced by Judaic monotheism (as he would have heard about the Exodus.)


Circa 1000 BC: People in the Middle East stop eating pork as Israel's influence grows in the region.
927 BC: Pharaoh Sheshonq I writes of attack on Israelite cities providing evidence of a powerful Kingdom and                      a downfall (which is why he would have chosen the time that time to invade.)
841 BC: Tel-Dan Stele provides evidence for Israel, and a Judean kingdom called "House of David,"

588 BC: Seals found in the City of David provide evidence of a plot to kill the prophet Jeremiah. 
539 BC:  The Cyrus Cylinder provides evidence of King Cyrus' liberation degree given in Ezra 1:1-4.
525 BC: Archaeological proof on Elephantine island in Egypt prove idolatrous Jews did live in                         Egypt as Jeremiah 42 and 43 tells us. 
500 BC
250 BC-68 AD: The Dead Scrolls were written and prove that the Oldest Testament hasn't been                                     changed more than 2% in the last two thousand years. The major exception is the                                 Book of Ester which wasn't found with the scrolls. It is also worth noting that some                             manuscripts were partially destroyed.
