For my statement that there is historical evidence that the Israelites were enslaved in Egypt, I relied on Thomas Cahill's "The Gift of the Jews." He put forth the archeological evidence, but I don't recall it now. There is a great deal of archeological interest in the historical accuracy of the Bible, you may be familiar with a magazine called "Biblical Archeology Review" which has its most recent issues available online. Some items of interest:

There is archeological evidence that Semitic people may have developed the first alphabet while in Egypt.
