Endnote 13 – A Reply to Baruch Halpern’s “Radical Exodus Redating Fatally Flawed”

The traditional date for the beginning of Iron Age I is c. 1200 BC. and in our paper we did not take issue with this; however, Bryant G. Wood, Palestinian Pottery of the Late Bronze Age: An Investigation of the Terminal LB II B Phase (Ph.D. Thesis, University of Toronto, 1985), shows that a date of around 1150 B.C. is actually required by the evidence.
