... by the lunar eclipses mentioned in the Almagest" [3 ], and through the Babylonian King List A with three rulers being kings of Babylon and Assyria at the same time. Three lunar eclipses are given for the years -721 and -720. The Ptolemaic Canon, which links our own to the ancient chronology, is built upon the Egyptian Calendar with years of 365 days only. The effect of all this is to fix the chronologies of all nations of the ancient Near East for many centuries by the date -763. Because of the method of derivation of this data, it cannot be accepted within the framework of a reconstructed chronology; at least for the present it is impossible ...

... are: UK £2 .45, surface £2 .80 (US $5 .60) and airmail £3 .40 (US $6 .80). Ancient History Study Group Report on the meeting at the home of Clarice Morgan's on 8th September 1990. 7 members were present and I introduced a discussion of the Calendar as well as giving a short report on the Toronto Conference Reconsidering Velikovsky'. My approach to the Calendar is to begin with the 20th century and work backwards. This has been quite hard to do, as most books which give more than a cursory glance at how dates are established are only available in specialist libraries. However, ...
143. Sothic Dating and Historical Reconstructions [Articles]
... well up river from, say, Alexandria. There in the precincts of a temple of Sesostris II, already deceased, these various documents were found. It's a large collection of papyri. Some of these have various dates on them. Now the dates are not always completely straightforward; sometimes it will be a date given in the Egyptian calendar, but it doesn't say what the Moon is doing. Sometimes the name of the king is missing. In fact, that is usually the case, but one can put these pieces together and make an effort to determine the time when Sesostris II would have lived and his successor Sesostris III, and Amenemhat III. The latter two ...

145. Commemoration Of The 2300bc Event [Journals] [SIS Review]
... traditions of a widespread destruction by fire from heaven, probably remembrance of a devastating rain of meteors'. My investigations strongly support these conclusions. Mexico The Spanish conquerors in Mexico found a tradition that the world was once destroyed when the Pleiades culminated at midnight [60] and this was dramatically commemorated by the Aztecs. These people maintained two calendars, based on a 365-day and a 260-day year. The beginnings of these years coincided every 52 years, at which time there was tremendous fear of a catastrophe. A critical ceremony was scheduled for the night when the Pleiades would culminate at midnight. First, the people smashed all the pottery in their houses and put out all fires ...
... as the year and the day. Unfortunately, astronomy can help us very little just now. However, when science has once become more reconciled to the chief points of Hoerbiger's Cosmological Theory, a competent person may undertake to calculate possible distances and times. At present the most significant figures are reached when we compare the Egyptian and the Assyrian calendar systems. The two are as different as is possible: the former reckoning in solar cycles, each consisting of 1460years; the latter calculating by lunar cycles, equal to 1805 years. As it is a very natural thing to set' a calendar by some momentous cosmic phenomenon, and as the transformation of a planet into a satellite ...

148. Forum: Did Jews Fabricate Their History Between 500 and 1099AD? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... a cultural and archaeological void of analogous duration. While Illig and Heinsohn are on their guard to direct their accusations chiefly against medieval Christian fraudsters, Illig also ponders about Jewish co-conspirators who may have assisted in fabricating a correspondingly fictitious Jewish chronology [6 , 7]. All the same, both authors seem oblivious of the fact that the Christian calendar (i .e . the Anno Domini system of dating) was to a large extent moulded on a much older Jewish chronology that provided a reliable foundation for determining the century in which Jesus was born. Since the early 1990s, there have been numerous attempts to show that this conspiracy theory is untenable and is readily falsified by Jewish ...

... to check the data on which Prof. Hawkins had based his ideas by visiting the site myself. It seemed to me that his case stands or falls primarily on the veracity of the major alignment of Centre/Heel Stone/Midsummer sunrise, by which Prof. Hawkins claims to establish the main purpose of the monument: co-ordination of the calendar to the seasons. The angle of the Heel Stone when seen through the central arch is 590 magnetic (i .e . 51 45'), accurate to within ½ . I noticed at the time that the skyline to the North East of Stonehenge is over 100-feet higher than the monument itself, at a distance of about 1 ...
