Sorry Steve, A long list of biblical quotes with YEC interpretation is not "Independant Historical Corroboration for Biblical Events" which is, I believe, the focus of this topic. I myself am extremely interested in the topic as a non-Christian with a strong Bible fascination. My understanding of the OT is increased when I find historical information that explains particular portions. One of the kindest and most powerful Christians I had the honor of meeting said that it doesn't matter if David was real or fictional, it was the illustration of the covenant that was most important. Anyway, my two cents worth.
