Modern scholars are specializing in figurines, statutes, scarabs, seals, cylinder seals, architectural features, art, iconography, ceramics, just to name a few. Archaeology is very important to bring to the surface these items for investigation and comparison. The comparison is done with what was found elsewhere in the Levant. In such a way, fashion flow can be demonstrated or picked up. Anyone involved in the above studies must study the book of Kings and Chronicles for the History of Judah and Israel and their chronology. Data in these texts are crucial for detecting the trends in fashion flow with each king. That is what we did and that is what is presented below. It is part of an unpublished manuscript of mine Cult, the Book of Kings and the Umwelt.
