> no archeological evidence of akkad yes we do. we have clay tablets dated to the period of his reign and we can travel through the archeological record that he left a sizeable impact. but regardless, the figures in the bible are far more legendary than a political emperor like sargon. moses is a lot like aeneas, the story of a foreign warrior / conqueror who has heaven's mandate to establish the nation that changes history. the story of abraham and isaac is like romulus and remus : the myths serve the same function of crafting a national mythology that gives the government legitimacy.  curiously, these figures don't appear until the 4th century bc
