I'm not sure why you put "history" into quotation. I was referring to history as in archeology.

The arguments are according to pottery and art in general, linguistics and I think genetics too. The first israelite settlements were in the north and therefore not were you would expect them if they arrived from Egypt. I don't know if Abraham was a historic figure and it honestly doesn't really matter.
