Descrizione:

DATING THE FIVE BOOKS OF MOSES by Gerard Gertoux

...there remain some vestiges32 revealed by the excavations in Egypt. Thus, a braided cord of camel hair, dated around 2500 BCE, was exhumed at Pi-Ramesses in the Fayum. A camel carrying a man on his back is shown in a terracotta tablet found at Gurna33 (near Luxor) and a vase-shaped kneeling camel was exhumed from a Ist dynasty tomb (c. 2800-2700 BCE) at Abusir el-Meleq34 (10 kilometers south of Cairo). In Wadi Nasib (in Sinai), a caravan of camels appears with one of which is pulled by a man appears on the rocks35. A statuette in the shape of a camel carrying amphorae has been found in Rifeh. These accidental archaeological discoveries show that if Pharaonic Egypt did not mention the camel she was not ignorant of it.

Abraham's camels are not anachronistic!
