“Hyksos weren’t overthrown until the time of King Saul of Israel”

I did not say otherwise. I said:

“Egypt had a standing navy during the 17th and 18th Dynasties (Hatshepsut reigned during the 18th), AS DEMONSTRATED BY The Siege of Avaris in the Nile delta, against the Hyksos”

The record of that battle documented that they had an organized Navy at that time, with sea-worthy ships (as opposed to strictly river ships). It was about establishing the nautical technology/capability that was available to the Egyptian State during the 18th Dynasty. That they were capable of navigating the Red Sea was the point, not that they had eradicated Hyksosism from the face of the Earth at that time.

OF COUIRSE you said otherwise, because you gave the dates to the fall of the Hyksos used in the conventional pseudochronology. If you didn't want the Hyksos discussed, you should not have brought them up!
