82. Herakles and Velikovskian Catastrophism [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... From: Catastrophism and Ancient History II:2 (Jun 1980) Home | Issue Contents Herakles and Velikovskian Catastrophism Arie Dirkzwager During one of his travels the Greek Herakles (Hercules) met Busiris, an Egyptian king, who used to put strangers to death on sacrificial pyres. Thanks to his enormous strength Herakles managed to strangle the pharaoh and escape. Busiris is said to have been a grandson of Epaphus.1 Considering possible identifications for Epaphus we find, of course, Apop. Now there were two or three Hyksos kings of that name, as we know from the works of Velikovsky and others. One must have reigned at the beginning of the Hyksos period and one ...
83. Megalithic Astronomy and Catastrophism [Journals] [Pensee]
... From: Pensée Vol. 4 No 5: (Winter 1974-75) "Immanuel Velikovsky Reconsidered X" Home | Issue Contents Megalithic Astronomy and Catastrophism Euan W. MacKie Dr. MacKie is assistant keeper, Hunterian Museum, University of Glasgow, Scotland. This paper was presented at the McMaster University symposium, "Velikovsky and the Recent History of the Solar System,"June 16-19, 1974. "The dating of the megalithic observatories to the period from about 2000-1800 B.C . seems fairly secure and puts them firmly into the epoch preceding Velikovsky's major cataclysms of the 15th century B.C . In spite of this, the alignments so far identified do fit well with ...

85. Natural Catastrophes During Bronze Age Civilisations [Journals] [Aeon]
... From: Aeon V:1 (Nov 1997) Home | Issue Contents Second SIS Cambridge Conference Natural Catastrophes During Bronze Age Civilisations Archaeological, Geological, Astronomical and Cultural Perspectives July 11 to July 13, 1997: Fitzwilliam College: Cambridge: UK A Report by Birgit C. Liesching Preliminary Remarks If the Portland World Conference sponsored by Kronia Communications in January of 1997 provided a surfeit of possible planetary scenarios, each more preposterous than the previous one, the Second Cambridge Conference was deliberately set up to by-pass any planetary possibilities. One speaker even appeared to deny that any catastrophes of an extraterrestrial nature were required to cause the destructions attested in the Near and Middle East. The Conference ...
86. Velikovsky's Martian Catastrophes [Journals] [Aeon]
... From: Aeon II:3 (1990) Home | Issue Contents Velikovsky's Martian Catastrophes Dwardu Cardona 1. The Martian Prominence Immanuel Velikovsky's reconstruction of the Martian catastrophes has not withstood examination. This can be stated despite the fact that some of the chronicles be cited as evidence do seem to hint at a series of cosmic disturbances during the 8th and 7th centuries B.C . In-depth investigation, however, has not revealed the celestial culprit as having been the planet Mars. As Velikovsky himself admitted: [This] was the time of the Hebrew prophets whose books are preserved in writing, of Assyrian kings whose annals are excavated and deciphered, and of Egyptian pharaohs of the ...
87. New Theses for the Reconstruction of Ancient History based upon the Recurrent Cyclic Pertubations of the Earth prior to 648 B.C. [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... From: Catastrophism and Ancient History VIII:1 (Jan 1986) Home | Issue Contents INTERACTION New Theses for the Reconstruction of Ancient History based upon the Recurrent Cyclic Pertubations of the Earth prior to 648 B.C .Michael S. Sanders Based upon the cyclic perturbations of the earth every 53/54 years caused by catastrophic celestial events, some new theses for the reconstruction of ancient history are presented. The following introductory comments apply: The dates used here are those commonly accepted bymodern historians, based upon the record of the 763 B.C . [sic] eclipse [sic] of the sun [sic] in the limmu lists of Assyria. It is ...

... existed in which man and his cattle lived, protected from wild animals. The structures were erected on wooden poles driven into the ground. Remains of such dwellings were discovered on the shores of the lakes of Scandinavia, Germany, Switzerland, and northern Italy. Sometime in the middle of the second millennium before the present era a "high-water catastrophe" occurred. The villages were overwhelmed and covered with mud, sand, and calcareous deposit. Life came to an end in all lake dwellings. Then for about three or four centuries they were not rebuilt; but after 1 200 B.C . new villages were erected, in some places on top of the earlier ones, ...
89. Forum [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 1993 (Vol XV) Home | Issue Contents Forum Comet Catastrophes and the Interpretation of Myth - a response from David Salkeld Pages 35-44 of Review XIV (1992) present a challenge' (posed by the Editor and four responses to it) on the entwined issues of the agents responsible for cometary catastrophes and their identification in the corpus of myth. The central problem arises from Clube and Napier's books and is summarised by Bernard thus: "If .. . the real agent of catastrophe was the comet Encke - and Venus was on a stable orbit as at present - how does one reconcile the myths (indicating a cometary and catastrophic ...
90. Past, Present, and Future [Books] [de Grazia books]
... .) , Jerusalem, Alexandria, and Tezcuco (Mexico) were burned, unique treasures were lost forever. The ancient writings that survive to this day can be carried on the shelves of a large bookcase. Almost all of the lost works that dealt with astronomy, geology, anthropology, and the history of religions must have treated of catastrophes and possessed a catastrophic viewpoint. I venture this from the fact that the great majority of the works that remain can be so described. There is no reason to believe that these are a biased sample of the hundreds of thousands of manuscripts that were lost. Indeed, because the later writers were prone to amnesia about catastrophe, they ...
