Garstang in 1930 seemed to have settled the matter conclusively with the stratum of the \u201cGreat Burning\u201d containing quantities of pottery from the middle of the late Bronze Age, and the necroplis scarabs and tombs terminating with the reign of Amenhetep III (1413\u20131377 BC). The findings of the 1936 season were in full accord and supportive of his previous conclusions. How Kathleen Kenyon could decide anything else was beyond me! But her stand was very influential and caused a great deal of confusion and popular misconceptions. It\u2019s time for a definitive word from a scholar such as Dr. Wood and I hope it receive wide circulation when it appears.<\/p>\n<p class=MsoNormal align=right style='margin-bottom:6.0pt;text-align:right; line-height:normal'><i>J.
