In his book "Ramses II and His Time," Immanuel Velikovsky continues
his reconstruction of ancient history. This volume covers the
best-known of old Egypt's pharaohs, Ramses II. Velikovsky points
out how little we know about this famous ruler. His revised
chronology places Ramses II firmly into the 7th century B.C. and
not, as we have been led to believe, hundreds of years earlier in
the 13th century B.C.. Ramses II's adversary was thus none other
than Nebuchadnezzar. We are made privy to fascinating personal
details about this great Chaldean ruler, whose autobiography
Velikovsky was able to locate. As in the first part of the series
"Ages in Chaos," this volume unearths a string of erroneous
theories and dismisses as pure fantasy several other aspects of the
traditional written history concerning the ancient world. We learn,
for example, that the so-called Hittite Empire is an historical
invention and, in another critical paragraph, Velikovsky leads us
the to the proper understanding of the Bronze- and Iron Ages. In
the extensive supplement, Velikovsky deals with the age-calculating
method of radiocarbon dating and its surprising connections to his
own theories.
