I doubt this will have much impact on the Higher Criticism group, who continues to rewrite the Bible based on the absence of something. I argued with one of these types a while back and they tried pinning their view on the fact that archeological evidence supported an Israel that was polytheistic. I told him, great, that is what the Bible supports as well. He was taken aback a bit. And I told him the Bible is full of kings of Israel & Judah that built high places to other gods and had cultic priests. That was the whole struggle starting with Moses, the judges, the kings, the prophets... Most of OT is a story of a chosen people who consistently turned away from their God. Many of these archeologists are clueless on the Bible and it is amazing the stories they weave from their discoveries around a single bone from a single hominid, with absolutely no corraborating evidence to support any of it from archeology.
