Description: (English Egyptologist and Historian)
David Rohl is an English Egyptologist recognized for his work on the New Chronology, which offers an alternative timeline of the ancient Near East. He has proposed a significant revision of the established Egyptian chronology, particularly suggesting new dates for Egyptian kings of the Nineteenth through Twenty-fifth Dynasties. Rohl's research, as detailed in his book "A Test of Time: The Bible - from Myth to History," seeks to connect characters in the Hebrew Bible with archaeological findings. Although not widely embraced in academic circles, Rohl's theories have generated debate and discourse in the realm of ancient history.
