Chronology of the Bible
Before you revert my edit, how about you go and open up a Masoretic text. None of the books of Maccebees are in the Masoretic text. They are not considered part of the Hebrew Bible, and they never were. They are read for history but they are not in the Masoretic Hebrew Bible and the Jews don’t consider them scripture. If you don’t believe me go look it up. You can look at a Masoretic text online, or just go to the wiki page on the book of 1 maccabees, which tells the correct information.Tags: RevertedVisual editMobile editMobile web edit

John Keegan
→Criticism: Someone stated that John Keegan wrote the book Revolutionary Armies in the Modern Era. A Revisionist Approach, and that S. P. Mackenzie criticized his work. Whoever wrote this didn’t know what they were talking at all, and it is evident that they didn’t even read the academic article cited. If they read the source cited they would have known that “Revolutionary Armies in the Modern Era. A Revisionist Approach” was not written by John Keegan, it was written by S.P. Mackenzie, an...Tags: RevertedMobile editMobile web edit

Ancient Greek warfare
→The hoplite phalanx: Citation needed for the statement that every man in ancient greece had to serve in the army two years. I have never heard of this and from what I was taught by my professors, Greek soldiers were farmers who served part time.Tags: Mobile editMobile web edit

Twelve Tribes of Israel
→Theories of origin: This page has extreme bias and it is blatantly obvious that it the writers have an agenda to convince people that the stories in the Hebrew Bible are made up. Not only is it not objectively taking account of both sides of a debate, it is very close to being antisemitic. I have begun to add information to make it unbiased, and considerate of both sides of the debate.Tags: RevertedMobile editMobile web edit

Battle of Qarqar
→Twelve Kings: This page claimed that “Twelve kings” was a phrase used in Akkadian to refer to an alliance system. There was no citation for that claim and there are not any published academic articles that corroborate that claim.Tags: Mobile editMobile web edit

Twelve Tribes of Israel
→Scholarly examination: This page listed Joseph as its own tribe, and then listed Manasseh and Ephraim. This gives the impression that Joseph, Manasseh, and Ephraim were three separate tribes. The tribes of Manasseh and Ephraim were the two tribes of Joseph, and were considered half tribes.Tags: RevertedMobile editMobile web edit

Athens
Added information explaining what the term “Byzantine” means. This article references the Byzantine empire as if it was unrelated to the Roman Empire. It did not explain that “Byzantine” is a term coined by historians and refers to the Eastern Roman Empire after the fall of the Western Roman Empire. The term came from the city of Byzantium, which emperor Constantine named after himself when he made it the capital of the Roman Empire in the 4th century. There was no “Byzantine empire” this t...Tags: RevertedMobile editMobile web edit
