... one, i.e . one that is only intelligible to the initiated. If so, a reference to the `open' book being `sealed' should be inserted into the passage Rev. x.2a, 8-11 (cf. p.37). Note 22. `Ram' rather, not `lamb'. Horned lambs do not exist; but another `horned' cosmic phenomenon is really referred to. This is probably echoed in the word, which is significantly assonant with Greek Ouranos and Indian Varuna, both of which mean `coverer, protector', and are described as many-eyed, and with the name of the watchful hunter or pursuer, ...
92. Did the Sea Peoples Come from Denmark? [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... wore boar-crested helmets. This brought me back to the Sea Peoples fighting Ramses III. Among the enemies of Egypt were Denyen and others who wore boar-crested helmets. There is about 2000 years difference between Beowulf and Ramses III. I also remember that Jürgen Spanuth wrote a fascinating book called Atlantis of the North. In the book Spanuth showed a horned statue of a warrior that was found at Enkomi, in Cyprus. Not only does it have the horns, but also the northern felt headgear. Spanuth not only claims that the Sea Peoples were from the North, but that they were also the Atlanteans. An interesting small support of that is the mysterious orichalcum of the Atlantean story ...
93. A Potential Historical Connection for the Death and Burial of Jacob in Genesis [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... how did the procession get there? According to the place names listed in Genesis 50 they appear to have taken a circuitous route. First, there were two main routes to Canaan. One was by way of the coastal road, called the Way of the Philistines (Exodus 13:17) or by the Egyptians, the Way of Horns.4 It is an unlikely choice for two reasons: first, it was not the main patriarchal route utilized for travel between Egypt and Canaan. If one studies the patriarchal narratives it becomes evident that the standard route for Egypt-Canaan travel was the road running from the vicinity of modern Ismaliya to Kadesh-Barnea. This is not the coast road ...
94. Tower Myths (Moons, Myths and Man) [Books]
... The Teutonic Irminsul, the centre of worship of the continental Saxons, was a sacred wooden pillar of great height, reared to represent the world-sustaining ash Yggdrasill. The Younger Edda', however, relates that when Odin, Vili, and Ve had fashioned the vault of heaven out of the skull of Ymir they set it up on four horns and put a cunning dwarf under each horn to watch it. Ahsonnutli, the chief deity of the Navaho Indians of New Mexico, creator of heaven and Earth, entrusted the care of the new firmament to four parties of twelve keepers each, which were placed at the four cardinal points. When the four posts, upon which the ...

96. The Legends of the Jews: Volume I - Abraham [Books]
... lifted up his eyes, and, behold, behind him a ram caught in the thicket, which God had created in the twilight of Sabbath eve in the week of creation, and prepared since then as a burnt offering instead of Isaac. And the ram had been running toward Abraham, when Satan caught hold of him and entangled his horns in the thicket, that he might not advance to Abraham. And Abraham, seeing this, fetched him from the thicket, and brought him upon the altar as an offering in the place of his son Isaac. And Abraham sprinkled the blood of the ram upon the altar, and he exclaimed, and said, "This is ...
97. Book Reviews [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... the catastrophic events he has described in connection with Venus and Mars but not necessarily in paleolithic times, of course. On page 15, the authors talk of some of the most fascinating pictures of snakes as being those made by the bushmen of S. Africa but that for some strange reason the snakes are often depicted with a pair of horns. The horn motif is of course only too well recognised by the catastrophist! On page 19, the authors state that aborigines believe that mystic serpents dwell in many lakes and can be recognised in certain features of the landscape. The Murray River is supposed to have been excavated by a gigantic burrowing serpent while the artesian spring near Coward ...
98. Morgan le Fay, Maid Marian and May Day [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... and in Latin mare is the sea. The Shakespearean term merry' may have an association with morris dancing and with Robin Hood and his merrie men. Herne the Hunter, a variation on Robin Hood, is associated with Windsor Great Park, a large tract of woodland, by Shakespeare. Herne is associated with oaks and adorned with great horns and is accompanied by a great noise and the smell of fear. Matthews claims Herne has Anglo Saxon roots, and Robin of the Hood. Etymologically Woden and Herne have a connection and likewise hood/hod/wood. Woden led a select band of warriors, the herjar or Herian = Herne. Woden rode an eight legged horse ...
99. Chapter XVII: the Building Inscriptions [Books]
... the modern constellation of the Great Bear, supposing, indeed, that the same stars were included in the old constellation. On this point we unfortunately have no definite knowledge, as the Thigh is so variously represented, sometimes there is a hind-quarter, represented evidently by the well-known seven stars, at others the body of a cow (with horns and disk) is attached. However this may be, without such a reference to some particular part of the constellation it is obvious that the stretched cord may have had a most indeterminate direction. In order to leave no stone unturned in attempting to explain this description- supposing it to represent an undoubted fact of observation we may consider ...
100. Conclusion [Books]
... while the alternating positions of the crescent produced the twins of the "right and left" or "above and below." In the polar configuration the ancients saw, at once, the cleft summit of the cosmic mountain, with the central sun standing between the peaks of the right and left; the cosmic bull supporting Saturn between its horns; Saturn's crescent-ship on the mountaintop; the heaven-sustaining giant with out-stretched arms; the winged god or goddess; the plant of life; Saturn's turning sword; and the altar of the world. It was the relation of the Saturnian crescent to Saturn's period of brilliance which produced the original symbolism of the four directions and of "day and ...
