Evidence of Moses Told By Ancient Writers Outside The bible

People think of bible history in terms of some type of JRR tolkein middle earth fantasy land. They don't realize that there are actual time lines. 1440s to 1500 many things were happening in the world. Secularists look at that and marvel and fail to give any acknowledgement to what was happening with Israel..and why should they i guess since they were at the beginning of their Greatness.

Jesus was crucified at the time that the foundation of London was being laid. 31-33AD.
 
The earliest existing reference to Moses in Greek literature occurs in the Egyptian history of Hecataeus of Abdera (4th century BCE). He was writing about someone who lived 1,000 years before him. His and all following literary references come from oral traditions passed down generation after generation. They were enriched with other traditions, like his basket ride as a baby. There probably was a Moses but the stories have made him mythical.
 


Sinuhe is brought to his adoptive parents in a basket floating down the Nile, and his features suggest that he is of noble origins. Eventually the hero, with surprising ease, starts to rub shoulders with the powerful of this world, becoming their adviser and their sole confidant, and often their admirer.

Sargon and Sinuhe both were found in baskets on the Nile.

Sargaon of Akkad states that Sargan was placed in a basket in the Nile and discovered by a gardener. The similarities to the story of Moses end there. Unlike Moses, Sargon was an illegitimate child, the son of a priestess and an unknown male.
