Where are the graves? Where is the pottery?
Hell, even Moses didn't make it.
What did they do with all the bodies ??
(Moses excepted, he flitted away)

There are whole cities that have been lost to time in the desert of that region. the only thing left are the foundations and even so are only known to us by satalite. (Where are the graves? Where is the pottery?)
So if a whole city/several cities 1000 to 1500 years after the fact can completley disappear then what chance does a a campsite have after 3500 years?
