3600-year-old Swedish Axes Were Made With Copper From Cyprus
Ancient rock carvings in Sweden evidently aren't of local boats but show ships bringing the metal from the Levant.

Extracts:

Mediterranean-style rock art depictions of bulls and ships, dating to 1600-1400 BCE, from western Sweden.
Bronze tools found in Sweden dating from 3,600 years ago were made using copper from the Mediterranean, archaeologists have shown. They now also believe that rock carvings of ships found in Bohuslun, Sweden were visual documentation of trade between ancient Scandinavia and the Mediterranean.
Most of the copper circulating in Bronze Age Europe apparently originated from Sicily, Sardinia, the Iberian peninsula - and Cyprus, going by isotope analysis.

The precious copper was exchanged for Nordic amber, which was as cherished as gold in Mycenaean Greece and in the prehistoric Middle East.  And, it seems, cultural and religious influences joined on the ride.

The ancient Cypriot copper industry produced relatively pure stuff, which was smelted into "oxhide ingots". Oxhide ingots were not made of cow pelts. They were Bronze Age copper slabs that looked like nothing so much as stretched hides, with four extruding corners that were used to carry them. Corners to carry them would have been a great convenience because they were horribly heavy,  about 37 kilos each.

Isotope analysis of some 70 bronze daggers and axes from Bronze Age Sweden by scientists from Sweden's University of Gothenburg, headed by Dr. Johan Ling, proved that at least some originated in Cypriot copper mines. Most probably, it was traded for amber.
"Bronze was as valuable a raw material as oil is today," says Prof. Kristian Kristiansen of the University of Gothenburg's archaeological department. It and amber were the twin engines of the Bronze Age economy, to the extent that marriage alliances are believed to have been forged between powerful families in ancient Europe in order to secure the amber trade.

Amber was used not only to pay for copper, which was turned into bronze weapons, but also for fripperies, such as glass beads imported from the Levant. A separate study of 271 glass beads found in Danish Bronze Age graves found they dated to around 1400 BCE and that 23 of them originated in Egypt and Syria.
And now the archaeologists think they have recognized images of the ships that brought the copper north.
Thousands of elaborate rock carvings dating to the Bronze Age have been found in Scandinavia, mostly in the region of Bohuslan, on the Swedish west coast. A recurring motif on the rock carvings is ships, and intriguingly, most of these ship carving sites also have images that resemble Mediterranean oxhide ingots.

Another peculiar feature of these carvings in Scandinavia is large bulls by the ships, and scenes of bull-leaping,  a common motif of Middle Bronze Age figurative, notably of Minoan Crete and also found in Hittite, Anatolia.

The ancient Scandinavian art also features horned figures also found in southern Turkey, usually attributes of the Hittite weather god Tarhun.

Kaul Flemming, a researcher from the Danish national museum who studies beads in Danish Bronze Age burials, is convinced that there was a cultural transfer between the Aegean and Scandinavia. 'The motifs from the Kivik grave may well been taken from Mycenean Greece,' he tells Haaretz, adding, 'The chariots, the light two-wheeled cart, can also be seen on the Mycenaean grave steles.'
Chariots were common in the Bronze Age Mediterranean, where they were employed as fast and prestigious military vehicles, and were often depicted in art.

Brit-Am Note:

Mycenean Findings are automatically associated with Mycenea in GREECE BUT
why have more so called Mycenean findings been found in Israel and the Levant than anywhere else?

3. New Article. Dolmens of Finland
by Arsi Saarijarvi

Extract:
But why Is it that allways there is only three rocks under the huge rock; one reddish, one whitish and one grey one. It cannot be coincidence. 
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
4. Challenge to Other Groups
Are you associated with some kind of Ephraimite, Hebrew Roots, or Lost Tribes group?
Test how genuine they are.
Ask them to do the following:

# Acknowledge that the Jews are Judah of the Bible.
# Declare that the Lost Ten Tribes are now mainly among Western peoples.
# Admit that homosexuality is an abomination and strictly forbidden by the Bible.

You may be surprised at the answers you receive.
Chances are that they may be reluctant to unequivocally admit to any of the above.
Incidentally ask them what the punishment for idolatry is in the Bible.
Ask them if they are against Jews becoming Christians or in favor of it and what the Bible says on the matter.

5. Brit-Am Appeal. No End to Brit-Am Effrontery?
After having had the gumption to possibly offend a great many people in the above item we now need to ask for funds.
Income is way down. Both book sales and offerings have diminished greatly. We need money to function.
Paradoxically our outreach may be growing but so far money has not been coming in but rather going out.
We serve a need that is for the benefit of a great many good people among the Ten tribes and also for Judah.
This is important.
Most of you realize this importance.
Help us to continue to do what needs to be done.

We believe that we promote love of God, love of the Israelite nations, Love of Judah, optimism, and cheerfulness.
We research the truth and often find it.
In some ways we are unique.
All this is worthwhile.
