Failed Biblical Prophecies

[Drich]

...you didn't read it, did you?
Let me show it one more time:

The silted up harbour on the south side of the peninsula has been excavated by the French Institute for Archaeology in the Near East, but most of the remains of the Phoenician period still lie beneath the present town.

(bolding and italics added)
When you say 'the city has not been excavated', it is misleading. Most of the city has not been excavated, but part of it has been. Therefore we have found the city, even if we have not excavated the whole thing, we know it is there because we found part of it. Yes, I am talking about the Phonecian original Tyre, not the Roman one. It says so right in the quote. Most of the Phonecian Tyre has not been excavated, but some of it has been.

Follow the link I posted. The causeway created from the remains of Ezk's Tyre were deposited on the northern part of the Causeway. There are several thousand yards of 'silt' between the southern most point of the pensula (where your archaeologist found what they found.) and the actual remains of Ezk's Tyre.

What they most likly found was the remains of the southern sea port In the naturally occouring harbor. The whole Island was walled and utilized in that day, but a sea port does not a city make. So yes they found stones from the time of the Ezk's tyre, but they were not of Ezk's Tyre. they were of the only structure recorded to have been there. The Southern most Sea Port.
