Klappentext

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Tel Hanaton (Arabic: Tal Badawiye; meaning 'The Nomads' Tel') is a Bronze Age Tel situated at the Western edge of the Beit Netufa Valley in The Western Lower Galilee region of Israel, 2 km South of the Town of Kfar Manda and 1 km ENE of the modern settlement which took its name, Kibbutz Hanaton. For much of the Middle Bronze Age this area of Ancient Israel was under the control of the Pharaohs of Egypt, either as provinces and City-States ruled by Egyptian Governors; or by Vassal Canaanite Kings who paid annual homage (tribute) to the Ruling Pharaoh. It is possible that the City was named for Pharaoh Amenhotep IV also known by the name Akhenaten, the Founder of a brief period of monotheism (Atenism) from the 18th dynasty of rulers of Egypt during 1352-1334 BC. The Name Hanaton (pronounced Khanaton) and the name Akhenaten have identical consonants, which in the Semitic Languages of the period is more significant than vowels, which may vary.
