CHAPTER

Uncovering the Highland Settlements

Delving into the archaeological discovery of Highland Settlements challenges the traditional conquest narratives from biblical archaeology, shedding light on the origins and development of the Israelite people around 1200 BCE. The chapter explores the emergence of Hebrew villages in the highlands as a response to the collapse of the Egyptian Empire, introducing a justice-oriented and egalitarian society. It delves into the historical rebranding, the monarchical period, and the reconstruction of narratives in ancient Israel and Judah amidst external threats and conquests.
