archaeological evidence confirming that Israelite culture was already indigenous to the region and there was neither a period of slavery in Egypt, nor an Exodus from Egypt, nor a conquest of Canaan as they were already there.
I’d say this is a little inaccurate - the Israelite culture is an offshoot of the Canaanite culture from some 400 years after Israel was founded, based on the Canaanite scripture but with YHWH in place of El, and while there wasn’t a period of slavery or exodus in Egypt, there does seem to have been one in Babylon after the Babylonian conquest.
The real issue of the both histories is that only about 20% of the population of the Kingdoms of Israel and Judea were enslaved, the other 80% stayed and after 2 millennia of cultural exchange ended up as Palestinians.
