... apparently fled and their colleague was not found for five days. When he was eventually found some miles away he related a story about being taken aboard a spaceship with strange alien beings, etc., etc. One scientist has been able to offer a perfectly natural Earthly explanation for this. He suggested that, in the time prior to earthquakes rocks under pressure release an electrified form of gas. Since UFO sightings seem to increase prior to earthquakes, it is possible that the forest worker approached not an alien spacecraft but an electrified gas ball. The man would have acted as a lightning conductor: the electrical stimulus may well have affected that part of the brain dealing with the ...
222. Assyria and the End of the Late Bronze Age [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... with the possibility of a disaster in the year of the opposition of Mars .. ." (10) Donald Patten (with Hatch and Steinhauer) made the valuable suggestion that the Assyrian army timed major campaigns in the expectation of close approaches by the planetary "god" to destroy the defences and cohesion of their armies by fire and earthquake.(11) (It is worth suggesting here that Assur, the national god of the Assyrians, and an extremely war-like deity, may also have been Mars. This may prove a valuable area of future study.) Velikovsky's model has Mars threatening the Earth at fifteen-year intervals in the eighth century. One such contact would have ...

224. "And The Terror Of God Was Upon The Cities" [Books]
... 869 X 1025 ergs: this is the energy released by an A-bomb of 2,100 megatons. The diameter of the striking meteorite would not have exceeded 300 m. The feature of Hudson Bay would require an asteroid generating the same energy as an A-bomb of 210 million megatons. Geophysicists have calculated that the energy released by the most devastating earthquakes experienced in modern times is of the order of 1027 ergs 26.27 This represents the total energy produced by an A-bomb of about 23,000 megatons. The effects of such seisms may be felt in a radius exceeding 3,000 km. from the epicentre. We shall see in a further chapter that the amount of energy ...
225. Skara Brae: A Time Capsule of Catastrophism? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... contributed articles on prehistoric archaeology to Current Archaeology and New Scientist and on ancient history to the SIS Review and Kronos. The curious Neolithic site of Skara Brae in Orkney shows great promise as a "type site" of catastrophism for prehistoric Europe. While there are no written records, the evidence supports a model for Skara Brae's destruction weaving together earthquake, violent climatic conditions, drastic cultural change and fear of extraterrestrial catastrophe around the end of the 3rd millennium BC. Cover picture (photo B. Moore): One of the extraordinary dwellings of Skara Brae, a Neolithic village of Orkney destroyed by natural catastrophe towards the end of the 3rd millennium BC, The huts contained drains and ...
226. Author's Note to the Editor's Note [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... article about the date of the Trojan War (C &AH, VIII-1) I do not think it is possible to date King Ahab late enough to make him a contemporary of any Aeneas. There were, however, more famines in the Old Testament. The prophet Amos, working in the days of Uzziah, two years before the earthquake (Amos 1:1 ), remembered the Israelites in a famine that occurred not so long before (Amos 4:6ff.). By means of the 8th century Velikovskian catastrophes the earthquake of Uzziah can be put in 747 B.C . If anyone wants to keep the Trojan War where I believe it took place and ...

... over the millennia, having dumped occasional loads of detritus on Earth from time to time. However, the authors were probably unaware, of course, of their compatriot David Keys' exposé of the 535 AD eruption of ancient Krakatoa in the Sunda Strait that brought the ancient world as we know it to an end. [6 ] On earthquakes: With reference to the New Madrid earthquake of 1811, it was actually a devastating triplet, one occurring on December 16, 1811, with two additional massive temblors in early 1812 (January 23 and February 7). On radiometric dating: It would have been a courtesy to the general readers had they been informed that dating by ...

... can ever go, came the Great Spirit's cold, hollow, unemotional voice. It howled like a tempest through the star-spangled skies, and re-echoed through the valleys and gorges, shaking the barren crags like trees in a gale. Bolt after bolt of crashing lightning tore across the shrieking skies; howling cyclones swept the rocky plains, while mighty earthquakes reduced mountains to rubble and heaved plains upward to form new mountain ranges. "Being most imperfect: listen to the voice of your lord and master. My commands are not for you to question. Proceed with your work without any delay." The goddess rose and stood on the summit of Mount Tabazimbi(3 ), her ...

... .C . For a discussion of the various hypotheses, see Noh (1988). Or the Ancient Record (Joe 1972:13). Actually, his name was Ung, preceded by titles such as hwan and sin. According to a legend preserved by Griffis (1911), Korea was originally a dragon that had once caused earthquakes and filled the heavens with clouds; the clouds turned many colors, and out of these colored clouds came Ung. According to Ha (1969:9 ) Ung was the son of Hwan-in and "a goddess of love." I do not know of any association between such a goddess and the Roman goddess-planet Venus. Or " ...
