Aristotle, King David, King Zhou and Pharaoh Thutmosis III Have Seen Comet Encke

A groundbreaking analysis links Comet Encke to significant historical events and observations, spanning ancient Greece, the Bible, Chinese records, and Egyptian chronicles. The study identifies Comet Encke as the celestial phenomenon witnessed by Aristotle in 372 BC, described in biblical texts during King David's reign (964 BC), and recorded in Chinese annals at the end of the Shang Dynasty (1060 BC). Additionally, a stele from the temple of Amon at Gebel Barkal corroborates Comet Encke's appearance during Pharaoh Thutmosis III's 47th year of reign (1460 BC), supporting the High Chronology for ancient Egypt. The research combines historical records, astronomical data, and archaeological evidence to establish these connections.
