" Ancient ruins tell only a partial story of the epic sieges and conquests recounted in the Hebrew bible, but scientists are using new dating technology to piece together historical events to see how closely they resemble those described in scripture.

Now, an analysis of ancient pottery fragments excavated at Megiddo shows that the settlement was indeed occupied by the Egyptians in the seventh century BC, states Israel Finkelstein, an archaeologist at the University of Haifa and Tel Aviv University who led the expedition that recovered the crucial evidence…"
