... have stood out for some time longer, but at last it, too, was taken over by the sea. After a hundred generations, man began with great effort to recapture bits of land from the sea, building dams and sluices; at this work he, too, discovered bones of animals in vast and tangled masses, of extinct and living forms, generally ascribed to the Ice Age. So, in the Dutch village of Tegelen, in a layer of sand, silt, clay, and peat, ancient elm, ash, and grape were found with extinct fresh-water snails, with bones of elephants, mammoths, rhinoceroses, hippopotami, deer, horses (Equus ...
232. The Rise of a New Culture (Built Before the Flood) [Books]
... ** ** * No soft local sandstone for the builders of the edifices of the Second Period of Tiahuanaco.2 Though they did not absolutely disdain using it occasionally, they set out to search for the hardest and toughest stone which occurs in the whole region. They eventually found it in the andesite which forms the slopes of the extinct volcano Kayappia. The andesite quarries were about 30 miles by water in a straight line from the quays of the new capital, but the builders thought little of distance and of transport difficulties. They broke huge3 blocks of this volcanic rock and took them, roughly squared, to the masons' yards near their building sites, where they ...
... places showed its red color." Thus if we were cut off from every other source of information as to the character of this animal's habitat, The Glacial Epochs. 183 this simple accidental circumstance of finding a part of a cotyledon of a plant in the hollow tooth affords evidence the most positive, and conclusive, that the race of extinct quadrupeds, represented by these frozen and mummied mammals, in the far north, not only was abruptly and suddenly overwhelmed by some mighty and immeasurable revolution of the forces of nature; but it also shows on what kind of food the animal fed, on the very day it was entombed, and that it was frozen up on the ...
234. Discussion Comments From the Floor [Journals] [Aeon]
... the matter, however, is that for all Darwin's honesty in admitting this problem (among many others), the inconvenient facts of the paleontological-stratigraphic record were against his theory and they still are. In Earth in Upheaval, Velikovsky presented evidence of human remains- fossils and artifacts- lying mixed together in the same strata with animals theoretically long extinct but having the same state of bone mineralisation. The established geological and paleontological theories, following the principle of "superposition" (more recent levels will lie on top of more ancient levels), imply deposition of these remains in geologically separate strata; therefore, they could not anticipate that such remains would be found lying mixed together pell ...

... await satisfactory answers."1 Climate changed, and the continental ice cover formed. "At present the cause of excessive ice making on the lands remains a baffling mystery, a major question for the future reader of earth's riddles."2 Species and genera of animals were extinguished. "The biologist is in despair as he surveys the extinction of so many species and genera in the closing Pleistocene [Ice Age]."3 Equally sudden and unexplained changes accompanied the close of each geological period. What caused tropical forests to grow in polar regions? What caused volcanic activity on a great scale in the past and lava flows on land and in the ocean beds? What ...
237. Velikovsky Symposium- Florida, July 12 [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... .html When the sky Fell on our heads: Identification and interpretation of impact products in the sedimentary record by Nikos Drakos, CBLU, University of Leeds U.S . National Report to IUGG, 1991-1994, Rev. Geophys. Vol. 33 Suppl., (c ) 1995 American Geophysical Union. The big problem with the dinosaur extinction by meteorite impact theory was that 45 years ago people did not know what the signature for a large meteorite or comet impact would look like. Regardless of whether the Chicxulube impact caused the extinction of the dinosaurs, geologists now know what to look for in terms of evidence indicating such an impact. However, even though the Holocene - ...

... on another date. Another example is the dragon. All around the world this image is prominent in literature and art and also in the religion of peoples. There is probably no nation that does not use this symbol or this creature as an important motif, yet it does not exis t. Several scholars thought that possibly it represented some extinct menace that impressed mankind to a much greater degree than any other creature since it appears on the Chinese flag, and in pictures showing Archangel Michael or St. George in battle wi th it, in Egyptian mythology, in Mexican hieroglyphics and bas-reliefs, and in Assyrian bas-reliefs. However, bones of this presumably extinct reptile have not been ...

... kind usually found in the Arctic, but elaborate and that of a sophisticated people, in this sense more advanced than any known Eskimos, and clearly derived from eastern Asia."5 In Central Alaska, where the ground has been frozen for many centuries, animals with flesh still attached to their bones have been excavated. "Bones of extinct as well as living species of mammals have been found in most of the regions. . . . They remain not as fossilized bones but in a frozen state, and in some cases, ligaments, skin, and flesh adhere to the bones."6 During the season of 1938, "almost the entire skin of a super-bison ...

... Age of the Dinosaurs. - NATURE 30/4 /81, p. 739-43 Mammoth Prejudice Two readers, C. W. Ikin and D. A. Parry, have reported to us some of Adrian Berry's writing on the subject of elephants and mammoths. He wrote: "A vast amount of nonsense has been talked about the extinction of the mammoth. One British scientist' recently suggested, for example, that the discovery of dead mammoths in permafrost, with their flesh, and even their cells, intact, was evidence that they were overwhelmed by the sudden onset of an Ice Age - as if they couldn't simply migrate southwards when the climate turned cold!" ...
