Homer and the Micenian World
#23
I did find one online paper that expounds this exact theory-- i.e. that the Egyptian chronology upon which the Greeks based their dating was widely off by three or more centuries, that everything pior this must be down-dated, and that the so-called Greek "dark age" was only a few decades at most, not three or more centuries. Trouble is, it was written by Immanuel Velikovsky, author of "Worlds In Collision," who is widely regarded by most historians as a total crackpot.

Has anyone more respectable repackaged the Velikovsky theory more recently?
