Talk:Tell Tayinat

Not west
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)

Toronto U pages are gone
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)

Philistine connection proven by ceramics in 2015?
The 21 Sept. 2015 Haaretz article 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)

2017 Excavation
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)

Biblical Calneh: is it a serious theory?
"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)
