Who Were the Danites

There’s a curious sentence in Judges 5:17, “and Dan remained in ships.” In this episode of the Naked Archaeologist we try to determine whether some of the Dan took to the sea and became part of a Mediterranean confederation of Sea Peoples. Are the Danoi, a people mentioned in Homer’s Odyssey, really the Dan? Is there any light archaeology can shed on the age old mystery of why Dan remained in ships?
