Abstract
SIR FLINDERS PETRIE here describes in popular form the contacts between archaeology and scriptural narrative of early Israelitish history, mainly in the results of the excavations of the British School of Archaeology in Egypt in Southern Palestine. The cardinal point of his argument, however, is the consistent character of the patriarchal narrative, when the years of the Biblical account have been subjected to amendment on lines for which there is strong grounds of probability. The later dating of the Exodus is then shown to fall into place.
