"Archaeologists at the Tel Aviv University claim that camels were not domesticated in Israel during the time period mentioned in the Bible. Carbon dating on camel bones reveals that camels were not domesticated in Israel until the 9th century BC.
"According to the biblical stories of Abraham, Joseph and Jacob, camels are mentioned as pack animals in the The Old Testament stories placed in the time periods between 2000 and 1500 BC. But in the new finding, Dr. Erez Ben-Yosef and Dr. Lidar Sapir-Hen of Tel Aviv University's Department of Archaeology and Near Eastern Cultures, claim that camels were not domesticated until hundreds of years after what is mentioned in the Bible, thus challenging the accuracy of the Bible and also revealing that it was written long after the event it describes.
"Using radiocarbon dating on camel bone, the archaeologists have mentioned the precise date when the domesticated camels arrived in southern Levant. It is the 9th century and not the 12th as mentioned previously. This defines the turning point in Israel's involvement with the world."
