Shishak/Shoshenq's travels, again!

“There is an elusive quality about 'Shishak'.” That is the first line of my original paper “Shishak/Shoshenq's Travels” (JSOT, 86, 1999: 3-23) and I had no idea at the time how elusive he really was. To put the most positive spin on the reception of my paper, it received a very...
