["Jonathan D. Safren" <yonsaf AT beitberl.beitberl.ac.il>]

Just a note to this discussion:
Yigael Yadin once claimed in a Hebrew article entitled "And why does Dan
live by/fear ships" (my translations of the Hebrew yagur) that the
Israelite tribe of Dan were a part of that Sea People known from the
Rameses III inscription and from the Kultepe Inscription of Azituwadda
as the Danuna or the Dnnm.
He didn't prove his point beyond all shadow of a doubt, but he made an
interesting case.
Sincerely,
