“The People Began Again to Spread Over All the Face of the Land”

Brant Gardner

Shez1, who is righteous, receives the land’s promise. After the drought, the diminished population, and perhaps the abandonment of some cities (e.g., San Lorenzo), both the population and a building program rebound under Shez1.

Chronology: The average-reign chronology places the reign of Shez1 between 830 and 800 B.C.
