Not west[edit]

It is claimed that Tel Tayinat is 45 kilometers west of Antakya. Well 45 km west of Antakya is a point in Mediterranean Sea. Thankfully, the coordinates have also been given. It is actually 23 km (bird's fight) south east of Antakya. I'll change it. Nedim Ardoğa (talk) 13:43, 22 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Toronto U pages are gone[edit]

Does anyone know how to find archive copies on the Net? Without them the page becomes terribly undersourced.Arminden (talk) 20:03, 12 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Philistine connection proven by ceramics in 2015?[edit]

The 21 Sept. 2015 Haaretz article [1] claims that it's an accepted fact, but a) it does not indicate how recent that conclusion really was, and b) never trust non-academic sources... If the 2015 Haaretz article reflects a 2015 update of the theory based on then-recent discoveries or analysis, then that is more up-to-date than the 2 books quoted on the Palistin page as debunking the connection, which are from 2013 (Killebrew) and 2014 (Bryce), respectively. Haaretz quotes very large quantities of locally-made Late Helladic (or Mycenean) IIIC ware, which is also a Philistine marker, and unperforated cylindrical loom weights, equally typical for the Philistine pentapolis, as the unrefutable proof for the identity of the two cultures.Arminden (talk) 20:31, 12 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

2017 Excavation[edit]

Article should be updated to include information about the University of Toronto excavation led Summer 2017. Especially to mention this find: https://www.utoronto.ca/news/majestic-3000-year-old-female-statue-uncovered-turkey-excavation-led-u-t-archaeologists Samlidbury (talk) 22:28, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Biblical Calneh: is it a serious theory?[edit]

"Calneh mentioned in the Hebrew Scriptures": not what the Calneh page says, it doesn't even mention Tell Tayinat, only "Kulnia/Kullani/Kullanhu, modern Kullan-Köy", and not Kinalua - is this mention here just a confusion of names? I did find a source (Brill 2019), but Google didn't come up with much more. Arminden (talk) 16:13, 8 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
