Dear Doug,

a. Why do you identify Pithum with "Horizen of Atum" (El-Amarna)?

b. What is your source for Akhenaton being called "bitterness" by the
Israelites?

c. What is your source for Amonhotep III bathing in the blood of slain
Hebrews?

"Archives, Library of Congress, Washington, DC." is NOT a source. What
document are you citing?
