Biblical Hebrew Forum

[George Athas <George.Athas AT moore.edu.au>]

This discussion has taken a turn towards some highly suspect historical 
methodology. So, I thought I'd try to bring it back on track with largely 
tangential but interesting piece on DNA research carried out on the body on 
Tutankhamun. It has repercussions for our understanding of his father, 
Akhenaton.

Thos interested in this historical research can go to the following link for 
the article.

I'm not out to discuss this article here at B-Hebrew. I just thought the list 
members may find it interesting as an example of well conducted research.
