The earliest town wall at Jerich appears to have been a mud-brick construction built during the proto-urban period, around 3300-2400 BCE, making it one of the first fortified settlements. Prior to this there was an unwalled village at the site. The date of the first village settlement at Jericho can probably never be established with certainty, but there is evidence of a settlement dating from 9000 BCE.

When the Israelites attacked Jericho they killed?

In the Book of Joshua, the Israelites attacked Jericho and killed every man, woman and child there, save for the prostitute, Rahab. However, archaeologists say that there was no military conquest as described in the Bible. They say that the city of Jericho had been abandoned long before 1400 BCE (when the attack should have taken place) and that there was at most just a small, unfortified mud-brick village where Jericho had once stood. The Israelites did not attack Jericho and did not kill anyone there.

When did the Israelites march around Jericho with trumpets?

A:According to the book of Joshua, Jericho was the first city the Israelites attacked at the end of the Exodus from Egypt. The Bible tells us that the forty-year Exodus began approximately 1444 BCE, 480 years before the fourth year of Solomon's reign, so the attack on Jericho would have been approximately 1404 BCE. However, over 90 per cent of scholars say that there was no Exodus from Egypt as described in the Bible. Archaeologists say that Jericho had been abandoned around 1550 BCE and all that existed, at the time the Israelites were said to have marched around the walls of Jericho, was a small, unwalled village. The Israelites never really marched around the walls of Jericho with trumpets.


What was the first target of the Israelites in Canaan?

According to the Book of Joshua, the first target of the invading Israelites was the fortified city of Jericho, followed by the city of Ai. However, archaeologists now know that neither city even existed during the late Bronze Age, the time the conquest supposedly happened. They say that these cities had been abandoned quite a few centuries earlier and that there was, at most, only a small mud-brick, unwalled village on the site of Jericho.
