The research

Cheshire, England

Why are so many famous biblical characters missing from the historical record?

Look in the wrong century and scripture looks like a myth. Ellis reads the primary sources — Josephus, coins, stelae, mosaics — and puts the kings back where the dates actually fall.

The research

Three investigations

Start here

The Israelites were the Hyksos pharaohs

Josephus already said so. Ellis takes him at his word: the biblical Exodus is the Hyksos expulsion of the sixteenth century BC, which is why Abraham, Jacob and Solomon cannot be found in Canaan when you look in the century the seminaries named.

Jesus was a king of Edessa

Great-grandson of Cleopatra, commander in the Jewish Revolt, owner of a treasury and a city-state in northern Syria. A coin still shows the spiked crown. The carpenter of Nazareth is a later costume.

III

King Arthur is the British afterlife of that king

After the Revolt, exile in a Roman prison in Britain. Twelve companions, a table, a wounded king, a Grail — the Arthurian cycle as a western memory of an eastern royal house.
