... there may be far more to the story. The earthworks at Newark bear remarkable resemblance to those found in Northern Europe. The Great Circle Mound forming part of the Octagon Mound complex is very similar to the shape and orientation of the earthworks which surrounded Stonehenge. Research in the field of archaeoastronomy [cf. R. Hively & R. Horn, "Geometry and Astronomy in Prehistoric Ohio," Archaeoastronomy, no.4 , (JHA, xiii, 1982)] has established that the orientation of the axis of the Great Circle Mound aligns with the northernmost rising point of the Moon in the 19-year solar-lunar, a fact which readers of Alban Wall's research on Stonehenge [in ...
162. In Northern China. Ch.5 Tidal Wave (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... finders of the conglomerates of bones were perplexed also by the animal remains; the bones belonged to animals of the tundras, or a cold-wet climate; of steppes and prairies, or dry climate; and of jungles, or warm-moist climate, "in a strange mixture." Mammoths and buffaloes and ostriches and arctic animals left their teeth, horns, claws, and bones in one great melange, and though we have met very similar situations in various places in other parts of the world, the geologists of China regarded their find as enigmatic. "No conclusive evidence can be derived from this faunal assemblage as regards the prevailing temperature at the time when it lived," says ...
163. Response to Mike Roland, "The Begninning of Religious Belief" [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... . It is commonly suggested that Palaeolithic cave art represents some sort of sympathetic magic, designed to ensure success in the hunt. Though there are many variations on this interpretation, all of them would involve at least a "trace" of superstition! The claim concerning "no imagery of gods and devils" requires consideration of the dancing "horned god" depicted in the Trois Freres cave at Ariege (cf. Breuil and Lantier, Les Hommes de la Pierre Ancienne , 1959, p. 240 and pl. XIV) - unless Mr. Rowland wishes us to consider the Altamira paintings in isolation from all others of the same genre, for which there could be no justification ...
164. Phoebus Apollo - Aspect of Venus [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... under Glastonbury Tor, and that he became the Greek and Latin Sun God. We are also told by Robert Graves that the priests of Delphi considered him to be Dionysos's higher self; therefore anything we know about Dionysos must be true of Apollo. They were both sons of Zeus, and of Dionysos we are told that he was a horned child with serpent locks which makes him a manifestation of Venus. He was "twice born": on his first appearance he was torn apart and had to be reconstituted from "Jupiter's thigh". This could well be a description of the ejection of the proto-planet with some of the ejected material falling back into the parent body, ...
165. Horizons [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... heaven, eg Sinai = Moriah? = Moreh = sacred tree. Moses received the Laws at the spring of Marah. Various other legends about Moses were mentioned i.e . his face shone (cf a Mayan tradition re a man's face glowed like the Sun); he was crowned as king or god with a crescent crown or horns (cf Michelangelo); he did not die but ascended straight to heaven; Samaritans equate him with the Messiah. SATURDAY AFTERNOON: DAVID TALBOTT: Saturn Myths. This was an ingenious thesis of what Ancient Man saw in the sky, the experience of which affected every level of human consciousness. It requires a visual picture, but ...
166. Dragon-Slayers (Moons, Myths and Man) [Books]
... the Qetto which followed Apepi, and the monsters in the train of Tiāmat. But the dragon-slayer myth is not restricted to Aryans; it is as world wide as the dragon myth itself. The Jews tell of Michael and Satan, the Babylonians of Marduk and Tiamat, the Egyptians of Ra and Apepi. The Algonkians tell of the Great Horned Serpent' which once in the past had a great struggle with the Thunder Birds'. Another striking, though much less frequently found, feature of the dragon-slaying myths is the fact that it is sometimes a descendant who kills his sire. Thus, to give two examples, Marduk kills his ancestress Tiāmat, and Chronos undoes his father ...
167. The Sahara. Ch.7 Deserts And Oceans (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... was it that conditions in the Sahara were suitable for human occupation? Movers, the noted Orientalist of the last century, author of a large work on the Phoenicians, decided that the drawings in the Sahara were the work of the Phoenicians.2 It was likewise observed that on the drawings discovered by Barth the cattle wore discs between their horns, just as in Egyptian drawings.3 Also, the Egyptian god Set was found pictured on the rocks. And there are rock paintings of war chariots drawn by horses "in an area where these animals could not survive two days without extraordinary precautions."4 The extinct animals in the drawings suggest that these pictures were made sometime ...
168. Theophany, Part 1 Venus Ch.4 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... moved, the seas and the rivers turned to flight, mountains and hills were loosened in their foundations."(12) Homer depicts a similar occurrence in these words: "The wide earth rang, and round about great heaven pealed as with a trumpet."(13) "The world all burns at the blast of the horn," is said in the Völuspa(14) According to the Hebrew tradition, all the nations heard the roaring of the lawgiving. It appears that at Mount Sinai the sound that "sounded long" rose ten times; in this roaring the Hebrews heard the Decalogue. "Thou shalt not kill" (Lo tirzah); ...

... in his words, "the sun and moon stood still in their habitation": it had the form of a man on a chariot drawn by horses and was regarded as God's angel. In the King James version the passage read: "His glory covered the heavens . . . and his brightness was as the light; he had horns coming out of his hand . . . burning coals went forth at his feet . . . [he] drove asunder the nations; and the everlasting mountains were scattered. . . . Was thine anger against the rivers? Was thy wrath against the sea, that thou didst ride upon thine horses and thy chariots of salvation . ...
170. Worship Of The Morning Star, Part 1 Venus Ch.9 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... 54) This triad became the Babylonian holy trinity in the fourteenth century before the present era.(55) In the Vedas the planet Venus is compared to a bull: "As a bull thou hurlest thy fire upon earth and heaven.11(56) The Morning Star of the Phoenicians and Syrians was Ashteroth-Karnaim, Astarte of the Horns. Belith of Sidon was likewise Venus, and Izebel, wife of Ahab, made her the chief deity of the Northern Kingdom.(57) The "queen of heaven," referred to repeatedly by Jeremiah, was Venus. The women of Jerusalem made cakes for the queen of heaven and worshipped her from the roofs of their ...
