Dates for Egypt's First Dynasty Refined
Scholars have done a computerized research project involving carbon 14 dating to refine the dates for the Kings and Queen who ruled Egypt during the First Dynasty. You can find an article about their research here.
I have worked in the securities industry for more than thirty years and founded a consulting firm (ASJ International, Inc.) in the financial services industry in 2009. I also trade stocks and options.
I have a B.A. in Middle Eastern Studies from City University of New York and have been studying the Ancient Near East for over 40 years. I was formerly the Secretary of the Egyptological Seminar of New York and have lectured there and at City University of New York. I can read Akkadian, Sumerian and Ancient Egyptian.
