The Bible is the main source of the historical information which we have today about Jerusalem in the period of the 10th to 6th century BCE. Only when King David conquered it, did Jerusalem begin to develop as an important political center - and moreover - a significant religious center. While, during the assignment of the Promised Land to the twelve Israelite tribes, Jerusalem became part of the area of the tribe of Benjamin, it was never actually conquered by the Israelites (see Judges19). Jerusalem began to be considered a city of significant regional importance only after it was conquered by the Israelite King David a few centuries later. In that early Canaanite period, Jerusalem was one of many independent city-states that existed in the region. There are references to this early settlement in the Bible (Genesis 14 - The story of Abraham and the Canaanite Kings), in archaeological findings, and in independent historical sources found in other lands that had maintained political and commercial ties with the Land of Israel (especially Egypt). The settlement of Jerusalem began in a very early period, and testimonies to this appear in three different sources. If i receive a lot of feedback on this I might make a Invasion scenario out of it.
