From http://www.egyptcx.netfirms.com/compare_biblical_solomon_amenothepiii.htm by Craig Lyons

"Is the Biblical King Solomon actually Amenhotep III, Pharaoh of the 18th Dynasty of Egypt? Well let us see.

The task before us, that of identifying the historical Solomon as Amenhotep III, is made difficult for us right from the start because there exists no historical record of a king of that name outside of the Biblical record. It is only when we match in detail the Old Testament account of his exploits with the reign of Amenhotep III that it becomes clear we are dealing with the same person.

The actual name "Solomon" as used in the Bible for the character under study derives from the Semitic word "salaam" and means "safety" or "peace". "

OK, but should we all believe just because a website says so. Can you prove that the website is a credible source?

are u saying by extension that Solomon is not David's son?
or are u also saying that David is a black?

I now see why he had so many wives. Kabyesi, Solo!

Yes, his father is also a Black Man. I am not relying solely on the website. I have confirmed the identity of the owner from America. If one would rather buy expensive books and the latest archaeological publications, no problem. But the author of the website
has provided a lot of free information gathered over 20 years of research.

Twenty Years ago, I got to know that the major characters in the Bible were Black Africans
and that Judaism started in Africa. The existence of the Falasha Jews of Ethiopia who claim a
descent from the biblical King Solomon supports the findings that the first Jews were Black People.

There is no archaeological record outside the Bible of the existence of a king bearing the name of Solomon.
The cities which he ruled have been excavated and the name of Pharoah Amenhotep III keeps on showing up.

The purpose of the obfuscation of his real identity is to disguise the African origin of Judaism and by extension,
Christianity and Islam.

Think of it, why is that the names of Pharaohs are deliberately never mentioned in passages concerning Egypt?

so if i may ask
who did this concealment?

yes you are right . soloman was a black man and son of david you can check that from the song of solomon to comfirm his identity but the issue of been an egptian king that it's foolproof am sorry . they are alots of acheological discoveries showing where he ruled and few things about him all you need is type discovery on king solomon and stop posting scrap

The concealment was done by the re-writers of the Hebrew Texts during Babylonian captivity under of Persian Empire (present day Iran).

Browsing on the eurocentric internet will in most cases give you the results of concealers.

Napolean Bonaparte knocked off the nose the Sphinx, using a canon, because it irked him that the nose was not pointed!

Exhumers of the mummies of Ancient Egypt, try to create unnecessary re-constructions of to portray the Pharaohs (before Greek and Roman Conquest) as white people.
Jerusalem was a colony of ancient egypt, something Discovery Channel of Magazine will never say.

THE INFLUENCE OF EZRA, THE COVERUP OF THE EGYPTIAN ROOTS OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE
http://www.egyptcx.netfirms.com/ezra_truth_about_hebrew_scriptures.htm

" , Much happened with the history of the Jewish people since leaving Egypt under Moses. Much happened to the earlier concepts of God which the Jewish people were exposed to while in Egypt. Some they retained and some they did not. Since leaving Egypt the influence of monotheism under Akhenaton had not taken hold as hoped as much of the Old Testament records; the oscillation between polytheism and monotheism by the Jewish nation continued and we see the result of this in the repeated judgments of God upon them because of such idolatry. This pattern of oscillation continued up until about 400 BC when Jerusalem comes under the power of the Persians. It is at this time that Ezra and Nehemiah formulated the Jewish scriptures as we have them today. In so doing however much of the tradition and history of the Jewish people were changed at the whim of Ezra; especially the links and legacy of Egypt owing to the fact that Persian and Egypt were often at war. In so doing Ezra changed the identities of the heroes of the Jewish people from Pharaohs to Patriarchs. Likewise anything concerning Egypt was portrayed in a negative light and the true reasons for the Exodus were obscured in order to cloud or conceal the Egyptian roots of these Jewish people. Ezra wrote out much of the Jewish mythology and altered many of the identities of the "Patriarchs;" incorporating a multitude of laws intended to make the Jewish gods into a single monotheistic god akin to Ormuzd, and the Jews into a civilized people." ,

6 Look not upon me, because I[ am] black, because the sun hath looked upon me: my mother's children were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the vineyards;[ but] mine own vineyard have I not kept.

Maybe the sun is to be blamed.

Oh poor sun! perhaps you try not to shine just for one day, may be, just maybe,    

^^^may be we all blacks will change to white?!!!!!!!!!!

where is the proof?

This is interesting.
The dimensions of the legendary temple of solomon as written in the bible seems to be a mirror image and matches with the floor plans of an ancient Egytian temple somewhere in the Sinai penninsula built by non other than Pharoah AhknaTen(formally Amenhoten 111) and edicated to his god Aten.


Pls read this the following link. very interesting.

Dr. Ossama Alsaadawi, has gathered many photos of the ancient Egyptians, that include the Prophet Solomon, as well as other Prophets. But, look here for the photo of Prophet Solomon. His nose was also disfigured:

Wa salaam. DevotedOne

The ancient Jews, Canaanites, and Egyptians were blacks. Of that there is no question whatsoever. As for the modern day 'Jews', those are not Jews at all, but immigrants from places like Poland and Russia (the Khazars) claiming Jewish ancestry. The REAL Jews have been driven out of the area many thousands of years ago, into Africa. Same as in Egypt.

The importance of his race is necessary to reclaim:

6) The Black African Contribution to the Astro-Theological Component of Major Western Religions https://www.nairaland.com/905402/sun-cross-astrononomy-astrology-religion

The importance of the race of Pharoah Amenhotep III exposes centuries of gradual obfuscation of the Black Image of the Creator in ancient times
https://www.nairaland.com/944789/import-gods-import-goods-services

With the knowledge of the true race of Amenhotep III a.k.a King Solomon, there is no need for Black people to remain Binary Conditioned to advance in self-rejection by seeking their self-realization on the platform of White European or White Arab Imagery.

snthesis:
and then, what next?

The next thing is that the fake images from Hollywood and National Geographic productions of Ancient Rome and Ancient Egypt can be questioned.
The next thing is that the images associated with Bible and Quaran need to be re-examined in the context of the racial composition of the ancient
world which was different from what obtains today. There was no sub-saharan Africa in ancient times. White Europeans arrived in greece from Central Asia
only as from 1200BC. http://realhistoryww.com/world_history/ancient/Minoan_Greece_1.htm

Black People in the Ghettos of American cities will no longer be poisoned through the public school curriculum that
puts Black Kids into a state of metaphysical Disarrangement that is also going on in African Schools.

White Europeans and White Arabs are reaping of from the concocted White Supremacist assumption that has been imposed
on Africans through conquest by religions that originated from Ancient African Spirituality. This is large scale robbery.

Amenhotep III and his Royal Wife Tiye


http://christianjewishbible.com/were_there_hebrew_pharaohs_egypt_3.htm
"..Amenhotep III, the Biblical Solomon, embarked on massive building campaigns which are partly confirmed in the list in I Kings but there is a problem. This temple was built in the 14th century B.C.E. and not in the 10th century as the Bible states. The problem we find is that the palace he is supposed to have built in Jerusalem cannot be found by archeologists, but the description tallies exactly with the Amenhotep III's palace in Thebes which was built in the 14th century....."

"...The cities of Hazor, Megiddo and Gezer, which as we have seen were built by King Solomon, have now been extensively excavated and all artifacts discovered examined and categorized. Hazor was a large Canaanite city state in Upper Galilee and has been identified as modern Tell el-Qedah only 14 kilometers north of the Sea of Galilee. It was one of the major commercial centres in the Fertile Cresent and we find references to it in both Egyptian and Mesopotamian texts going as far back as the eighteenth century B.C.E. Megiddo, which has been identified as modern Tell el-Mutesellim, was the largest of he ancient fortified city states in Canaan, overlooking the Jezreel Valley of Central Palestine, while Gezar, located in the foothills of the Judean Rang east of Jerusalem, was another important fortified city. A stratum containing large palaces, temples and strong fortifications was found in each of these cities. The name of Solomon, however, was not found..."

"............
a house made almost entirely out of cedars of Lebanon (built for Amenhotep's Jubilee festival);
a colonnade (hall of columns) fronted by a portico (porch) and surrounded by a column-lined courtyard;
a throne room built with many wooden columns and whose floor was a painted lake scene (identical to the one crossed in wonder by the Queen of Sheba when she approached the throne of Solomon, as described in the Koran);
a separate palace built for Sitamun, "the daughter of Pharaoh;"
a royal palace (consisting of his own residence, the residence of his Great Wife, Tiye, and a residence for the royal harem).

Solomon case ddnt even amaze me because the Bible reports accounts of his numerous wives and concubines and how he "built" temples for idols as well...needless to say that he must have even been so fortunate to father nations! Maybe am a descendant of solomon too!
