MILHIST initial assessment[edit]

Basic structure and referencing entitles this to Start class. However, it is heavily referenced to a primary source (The Bible) so risks criticism for OR. Also, current secondary sources are weak on their own and can't be relied on for technical details. Strongly suggest the use of more critical scholarly studies to give context (e.g. an estimate of when the battle took place, the political context, military technology) or there is a risk this article will be listed for deletion.

Any extrabiblical sources or info on this alleged battle? It is hard to come by, but just wondered if anyone had seen any.Historylover4 (talk) 01:52, 17 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
