Talk:17th century BC

[Untitled]
Leavened bread being developed in Egypt is listed twice.

Also the Egypt 14th dynasty ends twice, and the 15th begins twice. And it also says the 16th and 17th dynasties begins before the 13th ends... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.227.145.92 (talk) 14:09, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Contradictions
I corrected the contradictions that I could, using this as my source. The Seventeenth Dynasty was in the wrong spot on the list, between 1655 and 1660. As noted by the above anon, the 16th and 17th dynasties do begin before the 13th ends, because the 13th ended in 1633 BCE and the 16th and 17th dynasties began in 1684 BCE and 1650 BCE, respectively. There was significant overlap.

I have no idea what to do about the leavened bread contradictions. I couldn't find a source -- cymru lass (hit me up)⁄(background check) 21:22, 12 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Since the leavened bread appeared with and without a date (the only think I could see left that was a contradiction) I've boldy removed the undated version so as finish your good work, and leave the article contradiction-free. -- WORM  MЯOW  12:28, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

It blows my mind that the Great Pyramid of Giza was built c. 2600 BCE while the last of the woolly mammoths went extinct around c. 1650 BCE. 50.72.32.91 (talk) 04:19, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
