I've only had time to skim the Joshua's altar finding. But it seems to me that what they found is a Mesopotamian-style altar on which were sacrificed some animals that the Jews were told to sacrifice, and some that they are not.
This is hardly evidence that the ENTIRE TORAH was in force in the 13th century BCE.
