... : SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 1996:2 (May 1997) Home | Issue Contents Editor's Notes This issue features three astronomical articles - Michael Reade's assessment of the Orion Mystery theory of the layout of the pyramids at Giza comes up with conclusions about not only their layout but also their date. Flavio Barbiero analyses soem interesting mechanical models for calendars and suggests this as an explanation for Central American sun discs'. Charles Raspil's analysis of Chinese planetary observations throws up some anomalies of interest to those who are pursuing evidence of catastrophes between 500AD and 1000AD. Emmett Sweeney supports radical revisions of ancient Middle Eastern history and his latest paper (based on his new book) proposes some controversial ...
332. The Libyans in Egypt: Resolving the Third Intermediate Period [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... Osorkon II in the c. 725-715 period also positions him firmly in the Martian catastrophe period, on Velikovsky's model. And, sure enough, we have evidence of catastrophe in the form of exceptional Nile flooding during his rule. Velikovsky himself remarked on this. [26] On the conventional time frame [27] (and assuming no calendar change), Osorkon's flood, conventionally dated at 876 B.C ., belongs on July 31- a most unseasonable time for the Nile to be at its peak. Assuming a c. 700 date for the flood (and a uniform calendar), Fermor back-calculates the Gregorian date as 19 June which, he concludes, would ...
333. The Birth and Death of Memory [Books] [de Grazia books]
... the "Age of Mars" that is, in the eighth and seventh centuries [8 ]. An ordinary person is alerted and examines the sky with a fore-boding of evil. A brilliant speck grows larger from day to day. He is told that it has done so before, with terrible consequences. The memory is already excited. Calendars are studied and worked over. Oracles are consulted. All group efforts are mobilized to control the menace: rituals of subservience and devotion; the stricter punishment of any suspected deviants in all areas of law and conduct; the destruction of enemies if they can be promptly engaged; the sacrifice of more and more valuable properties and persons. ...
334. News C&C Review 2001:1 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... a fresh look at the physics of Velikovsky's Worlds in Collision scenario and concludes that, contrary to previous analyses, there are no fundamental objections. Trevor Palmer and Steve Mitchell return to the question of whether centuries can be removed from the medieval Dark Ages and find fundamental problems with the proposals of Niemitz and Fomenko. Bob Johnson's analysis of Mayan calendars looks at the curiosity of the 260 day cycle. Eric Aitchison returns to Assyrian history and Jesse Lasken to the Sothic cycle. The regular Recent Developments in Near Eastern Archaeology', Monitor' and Bookshelf' columns each contain bumper amounts of interesting information, thanks to the efforts of Jill Abery and Bob Porter. There is also a ...
335. Postscript, Bibliography (Built Before the Flood) [Books]
... From:Built Before the Flood by H. S. Bellamy CD Home | Contents Contents | Preface The Inter-Andean Altiplano Cosmological Considerations An Ancient Refuge of Man The Rise of a New Culture The Enigma of Tiahuanaco The Mightiest Stones in the World The Problems of the Slanting Strandline The Selection of the Site The End of a World The Calendar of Kalasasaya Postscript Postscript Because of this almost universal lack of sustained interest, Tiahuanaco is probably the most mangled and most ruthlessly pilfered site known to archaeology. The large-scale destruction of the remains by speculating builders from the time of the Conquista to the time of the construction of the La Paz-Guaqui railway has been followed recently by the no less vandalistic ...
336. The Selection of the Site (Built Before the Flood) [Books]

The problem is really a two-fold one: Why was Tiahuanaco built in that region? And why was its site just ...

338. Letters [Journals] [SIS Review]
... time of Merenptah. Further doubts arise from the repetition of births' claims; whilst I could be mistaken, I have very little doubt that repetition of births', must refer to a discontinuity in the risings of stars (see C&CR vol. XV, p. 13). Ramesses XI is said to have adjusted his calendar because of such a repetition – if so, however, he could hardly be dated later than about 750 BC. Even worse, his alleged predecessors, Ramesses VI, VII, & IX, all had tombs with astronomical ceilings which record such a discontinuity (described in detail in SISR IV:2 /3 , 1979/80 ...

... of the invisibility periods of Venus and comparable modern measurements might indicate that the orbits of Venus and Earth were perturbed in some way after the Babylonian measurements were made (or possibly during the period of the Babylonian observations). In their analysis they identified thirteen independent parameters having to do with orbital elements of Earth and Venus, temporal synchronization of calendars, etc. One of the parameters involved in the analysis is called the arcus visionis, which is the angle at which the Sun must be below the observer's horizon for the skyglow to be low enough to allow Venus to "shine through". This parameter alone of the thirteen is affected by conditions of the Earth's atmosphere and therefore ...
