“…Alternative proposals favour a pre-exilic origin, either as: 'proto-Samaritans' (Dexinger 1981;Mor 1989;Zsengellér 1998); 'descendants from the ten tribes of Israel' (Schur 1989: 23); 'the remnant of Ephraim and Manasseh' (Talmon 1974;cf.

Apart from the later period of the Hasmonaean kingdom, Samaritans and Jews were always separate peoples who had either Gerizim or Jerusalem as their main cult place. While Jewish perspectives on Samaritan origin and history still prevail in recent research, future research will have to broaden the perspective and take into consideration Samaritan claims for authenticity in respect to origin, belief and traditions. These claims have recently been substantiated by excavations on Mount Gerizim, which have unearthed structures of a major Persian Period cult place that may date as early as the sixth century BCE. These finds, as well as finds of about 400 inscriptions and 13,000 coins, have just begun to be published. The present article presents the most recent development in research on Samaritan history and literature, in order to offer a base for the necessary rewriting of both Samaritan and Jewish history.
