Just how stupid were the ancient Israelites?

RE: Just how stupid were the ancient Israelites?
They still did not build chariots out of iron.  What the Hittites did was add a third soldier to the chariot but even that would have added weight and thus made them slower.

From an Egyptian relief on Kadesh:

The Egyptians had a two man chariot with an archer shooting a composite bow.  I recall a Nova special where the technique was demonstrated.  Impressive.  Like a fighter strafing ground troops.

In any event, the two fought each other to a draw at Kadesh.  One also had to pick ones ground carefully to employ chariots.

Don't worry, truth is coming, and God willing, evidence real evidence is coming fast.

You do understand I won't be holding my breath waiting for you.  "Moses" is bullshit, too.
