... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 1998:1 (Sep 1998) Home | Issue Contents Editor's Notes Bob Porter's Special Report on Thera in this issue has potentially great significance for everyone working on ancient history (Recent Developments in Near Eastern Archaeology, p. 27). The eruption of Thera is a key marker in the history of civilisations around the Mediterranean and it gives the opportunity to link historical records and archaeological finds with the dates derived from tree ring studies (dendrochronology) and ice cores. The consensus' date for the eruption in recent years has been 1628BC - a date which suits the conventional chronology (although it is actually a little early for it) ...

... vast majority of scholars who have not studied it, but assume it has been proven false. But again, consensus among scholars is not evidence. What is also true, is that there are highly distinguished scholars of Semitic studies who find Velikovsky's evidence "brilliant" and "well documented." Among them one scholar maintains that Velikovsky's global catastrophic hypothesis is correct. He is Claude F.A . Schaeffer whose archaeological work will be cited in later chapters. Schaeffer was a member of the institute at the College of France. He is considered one of the greatest archaeologists of our time, and he wrote in a published letter dated July 23, 1956 after having read Worlds ...
194. Recent Finds In Geology. Ch.17 Supplement (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... A little over a decade ago it was observed that the gold digging hydraulic giants in the Fairbanks District in Alaska, sluicing out miles-long cuts, opened great hecatombs of animals. "Their numbers are appalling. They lie frozen in tangled masses, interspersed with uprooted trees. They seem to have been torn apart and dismembered and then consolidated under catastrophic conditions. Skin, ligament, hair, flesh, can still be seen."1 Then human artifacts were found under the mass of torn animals and splintered trees. These artifacts do not differ much from those used only recently by the Indians of the Tanana Valley in Alaska. Mammoths, mastodons, superbison, lions, horses were ...
195. Annotated Bibliography for Catastrophism [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... From: SIS Internet Digest 1996:1 Home | Issue Contents Annotated Bibliography for Catastrophism http://pubweb.acns.nwu.edu/~pib/catasbib.htm "This bibliography includes both standard references and some important catastrophist references. I've tried to emphasize the lesser-known catastrophist literature since devotees of Velikovsky often don't realize just how derivative of earlier catastrophists Velikovsky's work really was." Copyright © 1995 by Philip R. Burns. Bellamy, Hans Schindler. Moons, Myths, and Man. Faber and Faber, London, 1936. Bellamy, following the "ice cosmology" of Hoerbiger, suggested that humans had experienced two major catastrophes in the last 50, ...

... From: SIS Internet Digest 1999:2 (Oct 1999) Home | Issue Contents Catastrophism!http://www.catastrophism.com Have there been worldwide catastrophic events in mankind's more recent past?

197. Society News [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 1996:2 (May 1997) Home | Issue Contents Society News 1996 Autumn Meeting The 1996 Autumn meeting was held at a new venue in central London. The University of London Union proved to be a very convenient situation to judge by the numbers attending on October 19th, including some welcome new faces, who we hope went away as stimulated as those who have been attending such meetings for many years. The meeting was opened before lunch by Benny Peiser, who had originally intended to give us a short overview of the present state of catastrophism research. He did, in fact, quickly mention a few major book releases which showed ...

199. The Garden, the Fall and the Restoration [Articles]
... there a time before the amnesia set in? In other words, here we have a pathological condition, Velikovsky talks about not only the inability of modern people to remember the cataclysm but also effect of that repressed memory coming forth in irrational ways, individually and collectively, in ways that seem to have nothing whatsoever to do with planets or catastrophes: in wars for instance; population explosion was an example he used; throughout his manuscripthe presents irrational features in human behavior which he traces to the repressed memories of the catastrophes. The idea that the human race is somewhat irrational today is not original with Velikovsky,only his explanation of it. Psychiatrist Carl Menninger describes it laconically: ...
200. Reviewing Velikovsky'S Venus And Mars Theories [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... geometrically impossible. It is impossible to draw any kind of an orbit inside of the Earth's orbit where that orbit crosses the Earth's orbit at (a ) the March 20-21 location, and (b ) the October 24 location.3 Ancient literature cites these locations in space, or the days of the year, when (and where) catastrophes occurred. These dates, therefore, cite where that marauding planet crossed the Earth's orbit. One intersection was when the marauding planet was coming in and the other was where it crossed our orbit going out. Sometimes the Earth was nearby. For instance, the old Roman tubulustrium (day of trouble) was March 20-21, just like ...
