Abstract
Following the recent controversies over the Tel Dan Stela, this paper presents a minimal interpretation of the main part of its text with resulting implications, and like wise of relevant passages on the Moabite Stone. A much earlier attestation of the name of David may very likely be found in a place name in the topographical list of Shoshenq I of Egypt, c. 925 BCE, carved only half a century after David's death. The supposed deity Dod appears to be a wholly specious modem invention.
