The next stop on the Random Walk through Jewish History and Culture will take us to the 8th Century BCE and the conquest of the Northern Kingdom of Israel.
The presentation is by the prominent Scholar and Author Eric H. Cline. https://library.biblicalarchaeology.org/auth/eric-h-cline/
Speculating on the whereabouts of the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel has been popular for longer than the search for the Ark of the Covenant and the Holy Grail. Suggestions for where they ended up have ranged from America and Britain to India and Africa, and virtually every place in between. However, few proper investigations of this “mystery” have been conducted. Now, utilizing three separate and completely independent sources—the Biblical account, contemporary neo-Assyrian inscriptions, and archaeological remains from both the northern kingdom of Israel and the southern kingdom of Judah—it can be confidently shown that the Ten Tribes of Israel were never lost.
