You might want to read that entire link - it backs up what I said perfectly - the Canaanites were originally the Egyptians and Syrian Arabs - then the Hebrew nomads wandered in and eventually worked their way up to overpowering the people there and installed their own king (Yahweh I guess they called him)
And archeological eivdence does support this version - and usually conflicts with the old testament version - which of course a lot of hat reference you posted bases its conclusions on


And I guess that makes 2000 for me
