... Persian Anahita to the Canaanite and Carthaginian deities, Anat and Tanit.(1 ) Shall we fare better in our attempt to unmask Venus' real parent through an investigation of these deities? The case for Anat, with whom we shall commence, is straightforward enough. As Immanuel Velikovsky pointed out, a Cyprian inscription identifies Anat with the Greek Athene(2 ) who, despite Bob Forrest's contention to the contrary,(3 ) has been ably demonstrated to have been an alias of the Venerian goddess.(4 ) But we ask for more. Like the Venerian deities of other nations, Anat was a goddess of love and war.(5 ) What we know ...
382. From Myth to a Physical Model [Journals] [Aeon]
... a sword or weapon. At every turn we confront "anomalies" that point not to confusion or irrationality (the common assumption), but to the original integrity of myth. For example: all of these echoes of that underlying unity literally surround the fully developed warrior hero figures- Assyrian Nergal, Hindu Indra, Rudra and Shiva, Greek Ares, Hercules, Apollo, and of course the Egyptian Shu, Horus, Set, Sept, Anup and others. It is the earliest instances that illuminate the later, for the obvious reason that the farther back you reach, the closer you are to the original, unified experience. So it is not surprising to find that ...
383. Night of the Gods: Polar Myths. The Pole Star [Books]
... by some proofs that the Most High, the deity symbolically worshipped on High Places, was the God of the Polestar, who was seated at the Highest celestial spot of the Cosmos, the North Pole of the heavens. The foregoing quotations from Hebrew and Egyptian sacred literature form a fitting introduction, and we may now add to them some Greek and other instances. THE MOST HIGH. Zeus Hypatos, the Most High, was offered no living victim, but only cakes and wine on his altar on the Athenian acropolis.6 He is clearly the salve as Zeus Polios who was similarly propitiated until a sacrilegious ox ate-up some of the cakes and wafers, and trampled on others ...
384. Temple, Crown, Vase, Eye, and Circular Serpent [Books]
... famous example, perhaps, is the crown of Tyche of Antioch, which corresponds to the turreted wall of the city. (81) Concerning the goddess of the city-crown, Suhr writes: ". .. the whole city wall, in a diminutive version, was placed on her head, beginning with Astarte and continuing with Aphrodite of Greek and Roman times. (82) Yet why the crown was assimilated to the city wall remains unexplained by modern researchers- and will continue to remain a puzzle until scholars acknowledge the concrete form of the mother goddess, city, and crown as a single band of light around the great god. The Vase Mythmaking imagination also expressed the ...

387. Forum [Journals] [SIS Review]
... have taken the trouble to study my essay in detail? (1 ) On page 66 you give an interpretation of Thutmose's Egyptian name different from mine, leaving out half a sentence which actually is needed in order to understand the following suggestion. The text as I agreed it was: "Finally, the name Thutmose' is but the Greek version of the Egyptian name: Djhwty-ms, meaning the son of the god Djhwty' (Thot in Greek), the god with the head of an ibis." If your Egyptologist has a different understanding of the name - this only enhances my assertion that interpretation of Oriental texts leaves much to the subjective understanding of the translator. ...
388. The Doctrine Of Uniformity. Ch.3 Uniformity (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... further analogies. "Suppose we have discovered two buried cities at the foot of Vesuvius, immediately superimposed upon each other with a great mass of tuff and lava intervening. . . . An antiquary [archaelogist] might possibly be entitled to infer, from the inscriptions on public edifices, that the inhabitants of the inferior and older city were Greeks, and those of the modern town Italians. But he would reason very hastily if he also concluded from these data, that there had been a sudden change from the Greek to the Italian language in Campania. But if he afterwards found three buried cities, one above the other, the intermediate one, being Roman . . . ...
... As such monuments are discovered in ore-producing regions almost entirely, thus indicating the maritime explorers' world-wide search, it might be argued that since Egypt contains no valuable ores the absence of their relics may thus be accounted for, although they must have surveyed the country, which goes also for the surrounding lands, the Balkans, Turkey, the Greek Islands, etc., placed in a highly seismic area. None of these, so far as I have been able to trace them, possess indications of the Saturnian cult, or, indeed, anything which precedes the uprise of the Dionysiac period. The absence of Saturnian relics in Egypt leads to the conclusion that he was a ...
390. Darkness and the Deep [Journals] [Aeon]
... man can remember- Saturn fashioned the "land," which was formless and empty, while the "spirit" of the same Saturn moved over the darkened waters. "Tohu wa bohu," however, can also mean "utter chaos." (39) This is interesting because, in describing the creation as remembered by the Greeks, Hesiod asks: "From the beginning, which first came to be?" And answers: "Chaos was first of all..." (40) It is from this chaos that, according to the mythologies of many races, creation was said to have proceeded. Thus, in the Phoenician cosmogony of Philo Byblius ...
