Archaeology has changed the understanding of Israel's history. The theory of a united monarchy under the reigns of David and Solomon no longer holds true today. Judah is only consolidated as a state with Josiah (640-609). On the other hand, a new state is being unearthed: Israel in the north. This fact forces us to re-read and to revise the entire historical narrative presented by the Bible (First Testament), which tends to place Judah as the precursor and center of history. The narrative needs to be read now, or, also, from the viewpoint of Israel, north, whose historical reality is revealed, by the archeological findings, to be much more heterogeneous and syncretic than the Jerusalemite authors describe.
